Experience where its needed!

At audiomatrix, inc. We engage in literally hundreds of sound system design projects per year, ranging from standard designs to those much more complex requiring the use of manufacturers’ specific product software programs. Our engineering team keeps current on the latest technologies and audio concepts used in the industry to provide the best solution for our customers.

Audiomatrix, Inc.’s 7 Key Criteria

We believe it is crucial to have the appropriate input from all customer personnel who will be using the sound system. It is through their comments and suggestions that we are able to develop a solution that best suits the customer’s application.

Every design is required to make use of proven audio technologies. At Audiomatrix, Inc. we do not experiment with beta products or those without a track record of reliability and total functionality. Customers can be assured what is proposed will work.

All designs will make use of current manufacturer’s product that is state-of-the-art and verified with respect to technical support and warranty coverage.

Our sound systems are designed to be extremely user-friendly and operational with a minimum of adjustment and user intervention, based on the application. We strive to develop systems that reduce customer downtime and virtually eliminate operator error.

Each design must include appropriate future expansion capability. Cabinets that house product will always have a little extra room in the event a customer wishes to add another amplifier or CD player in the future. Amplifier specifications will include the necessary overhead should the customer need to add a few additional speakers down the road. Mixers will be designed with a few more channels than currently needed to accommodate the addition of extra microphones or music sources later. These are a few examples of the many expansion capabilities incorporated into every Audiomatrix, Inc. sound system design.

Prior to any proposal to a customer, each Audiomatrix, Inc. sound system design gets thoroughly evaluated and screened for technical accuracy. This benefits the customer by receiving a double-check of the design and improves our in-house efficiency should the proposal become a live order.

At Audiomatrix, Inc. we understand how sound systems are both used and abused. Our designs are required to be rugged especially where there are connections to the system to be made and unmade on a regular basis. All connections make use of the top industry-standard components and all systems are properly designed to withstand more than typical usage and to provide continued operation in the harshest of environments.

Engineering and installation

Engineeringmodeler-300x224the engineering department at audiomatrix, inc. Prides itself on custom solutions for hard to solve audio and communications projects. Coupled with extensive product knowledge, a sophisticated network system to provide access to product research and outstanding relationships with our supplier’s technical support teams we can develop solutions quickly and effectively.

Our large facility allows us to set up and test our solutions as we develop them. We have the room, both indoors and outdoors to assemble the largest of systems and measure their performance to ensure they will meet customer demands.

One of the areas in-house is dedicated to computer modeling. Using custom software connected to a large flat panel monitor, our engineers can simulate the positioning of various loudspeakers within an environment and render the project to determine coverage patterns, speech intelligibility, and overall system performance. Additionally, 3d environments can be displayed and shown to customers prior to incorporating products into their design.

For auditioning system components, we have a large demonstration room that allows our customers to listen to any number of products with a full complement of bass cabinets and hear the result immediately

.

Our Engineering Department, in conjunction with our Service Department, is also responsible for the programming of various DSP (Digital Signal Processing) products as required for specific customer applications.  Initial programming is usually done in our Service Shop to allow for equipment testing and any specific modifications to be made prior to the field installation.  Front panel lockouts and limits on user controls can be done at this point to simplify customer operation of our systems.

Further fine-tuning and final calibration will occur when the products are actually installed on-site and prepared for use.
