Technical information:

A

A  udiVarius is using an 8-channel AltiVerb custom build by AudioEase, marketleader in this field. The engine uses the impulse response technology to capture the acoustics of real places. A large database of all kinds of churches, concerthalls, theatres and clubs is availible. AudiVarius uses a special selection of these impulse responses for its revererationsystem.

T

The sound produced by the performers (vocals and instruments) is captured by 4 highly sensitive low-noise microphones. The signal is fed into the AltiVerb software and is being processed in realtime. The 8-channel output of the reverberated sound is directly fed into a multichannel amplifier.

E

E  ach loudspeaker of the system exists of nine units placed in a vertical line-array. The 8-channel system ensures a diffuse soundfield in the whole studio independent of the position of the musicians making the system itself 'invisible', even when standing close to one of the loudspeakers.
