Audio Design Workshop LIVE, AES Helsinki

Active Loudspeakers: Design and Optimization Masterclass

Prism Sound and Oxford Digital, in conjunction with the AES, Texas Instruments, Klippel, LOUDSOFT and Audio EMC, invite you to join our audio engineering masterclass via LIVE webcast feed from the 51st AES Conference in Helsinki. This is a unique opportunity to hear from some of the most experienced engineers in the industry, and to hear about their practical experiences in analogue and digital audio design. See the latest developments in technology, and learn from the many decades of collective experience of our panel of presenters.

• Klippel will discuss ongoing efforts to define and develop meaningful audio performance metrics for today's smart devices
• LOUDSOFT will educate us on how the loudspeaker development process can be greatly streamlined with modern CAD tools
• Oxford Digital will show us how the application of DSP techniques can maximise compact loudspeaker performance for a given budget and footprint
• Texas Instruments will address the performance benefits afforded by a system-level approach to active loudspeaker design
• Prism Sound will teach us how modern digital audio analysis techniques can provide far greater and more rapid insight into system performance
• Audio EMC will provide practical solutions to often-overlooked problems of electromagnetic interference and its impact on audio system performance
