Amadeus Acoustics unveils an immersive 3D audio engine as part of the ART platform for multi-channel and multi-room applications. The new ART::IP immersive performance software module allows for sound control in 3D spaces and even supporting a 96 kHz sample rate. It even supports an infinite number of audience zones while maintaining a consistent spatial experience for every seat in the venue. With the ability to manage up to 128 sound sources and 256 loudspeakers, it offers unparalleled scalability and versatility.

The system automatically optimizes processing for all audience zones, eliminating the need for individual mixes to account for fill speakers or challenging architectural spaces.

One of its standout features is the ability to define sources as either immersive sources or performer sources. Immersive sources handle — for example — spatialized sound effects throughout the room, while performer sources are tailored for live instruments, singers, or playback on stage. Performer sources are automatically snapped to the stage area, utilizing the full headroom of the main PA system and applying optimized processing across all loudspeakers with automated precedence (Haas effect) optimization to maintain precise sound localization. This ensures that sound consistently aligns with performers, regardless of where audience members are seated. Furthermore, the loudspeaker configurations can be freely customized to fit the architectural requirements of the space without imposing any restrictions, ensuring audiences enjoy the same immersive experience regardless of the setup.

Additionally, the system incorporates Amadeus Wavefield Panning, a revolutionary delay-based panning feature for a truly immersive 3D experience. A unique motion-speed-dependent delay interpolation ensures that even sensitive sources, such as vocalists, can be moved with absolute artifact-free precision.
