Audio-Technica Iberia assumes the distribution of two business divisions of Artnovion

The Pro Audio divisions & Studio y Architectural & Engineering for acoustic treatment from the Portuguese manufacturer is added to its commercial proposal in Spain from this distributor.

Based in Portugal, Artnovion is a manufacturer of high quality acoustic correction products, with an extensive range of panels for absorption and diffusion, bass traps, portable acoustic components and variable acoustic solutions.

Artnovion has chosen Audio-Technica Iberia as a distributor in Spain of two of its business divisions: Pro Audio & Studio y Architectural & Engineering, specially developed to avoid the disturbances and reverberations that occur in a restaurant without quality acoustic conditioning, a cafeteria or a hotel lobby.

The acoustic quality of a premises is as important as the light, the air, the climate and the perception of the room as natural components of the total environment of an interior space. Each location requires a different acoustic treatment, and the Architectural product line & Engineering offers answers to all the acoustic needs of all types of public establishments.

For example, the expectation for a restaurant will be discretion; in a classroom the intelligibility of speech and in a hotel room the acoustic insulation. Each of these environments will require special characteristics that absorb, reflect, enhance or isolate sound, always according to use.

According to statistics, and 13% of customers will not return to a hotel establishment due to noise incidents. All these situations have a multitude of effective solutions in the Artnovion catalogue., profitable and with a spectacular aesthetic design for any environment, without forgetting the no less important factor of sustainability.

The Pro Audio division & Studio offers a wide catalog of solutions for all types of studies, both professional and domestic, including absorbents, diffusers, insulators, mobile kits (recording booths for vocals and drums), studio furniture and bass traps.

The latter is especially notable., since it is the only system available on the market that can actually be tuned to work with frequencies on the order of 40 Hz. Based on TPDA technology or (tuneable pistonic diaphragmatic membrane – tunable pistonic diaphragmatic membrane) is a patented system developed by Artnovion to meet the demand for acoustic correction components, capable of carrying out precise and selective absorption of low frequencies.

Artnovion combines the best facets of design, engineering and customer service. Good proof of this is its effort to develop useful tools that help the user to plan the acoustic treatment they need in a simpler and more effective way..

In this sense, the company has developed Impulso AE, a free app that allows you to measure the acoustic response of a room. With this application it is possible, For example, see the reverb time in octave bands for, next, simulate how the acoustic response of said space will be improved when Artnovion acoustic products are added.

It is also possible to check the frequency response of the measurement. To make measurements, It is possible to use both the internal microphone of the iPhone and an external one. This app is available in two versions: Impulso Architect App, oriented to architects, installers, etc., and Impulso Acoustics App, Suitable for professionals who work with sound recording studios, broadcast, etc.

This second version has additional tools, as measures of definition or clarity in phrases; ETC charts, that show in detail the propagation paths of sound energy in the room, allowing you to identify critical areas for treatment or a frequency graph and display the magnitude of each frequency in the measured impulse.
