The Future of Sound

Introduction

As technology becomes more advanced, personalised and on-demand, it

improves the way we listen. The growth of the live music industry and movies

pushed audio technology from its origins into quite advanced systems that

were used in major events. Audio systems have evolved far from being a

simple speaker. Today’s events are engaging, immersive and highly refined

masterpieces that are played by audio artists around the world.

While audio technology hardware advancement appears to have slowed

down, the growth will be in the software and programming that manipulates

the systems to make them more flexible and allow for greater control and

creativity.

Synthstrom Deluge – Portable synthesiser and sequencer Designed in New Zealand, this unique all-in-one synthesiser, sampler and

sequencer was created with the purpose of creating and improving electronic

music. It features 128 pads for sequencing, a dual-engine subtractive and FM

synth and 64MB of RAM for loading samples as well as built-in effects,

arpeggiator and CV outputs for external gear. This piano style instrument is

already creating waves in the musical world since it requires no computer to

create the music.

Decibel – Eco-friendly modular speaker

The company claims that these speakers will be “the last speaker you’ll

ever buy”. The Decibel aims to reduce e-waste through their modular

design. Rather than buying a new unit every time, Decibel encourages

you to replace the components as the technology advances and you are This awesome wireless Bluetooth Speaker has even more impressive

features like long battery life, wireless and USB-C charging, aptX audio,

and an aluminium chassis, and it is good looking too!

Olive - Next generation hearing aid With the aim to solve the problem of cost and the social perception on

the hearing impairment, Olive has come as a revolution in the hearing

aid technology. Affordable and accessible to all, Olive allows the users

to test the hearing aid and configure the aid to their requirement and

need. The aid is cost efficient, next gen and appealing too.

4D - The Future Of Sound

4D is here to revolutionise the way we hear the sounds by adding an

extra dimension along the Y axis. This gives more depth to sound we

hear. The purpose of 4D systems is to let the electronic music

producer manipulate sound so it moves in time, changes shape, and

hits you from all corners of the room. The 4D system allows for 16

columns of omni directional speakers, each with three speakers per

piece, and nine sub-woofers under the floor, for a total of 57 separate

channels of audio. They can be easily connected through apps where

the end users can manipulate the sounds in the way they want.

The way in which we experience sound has dramatically changed.

Now that digital music is here for foreseeable future, it’s pushing the

growth of earbuds among the popular music enthusiasts. These

devices, apparatus and accessories are here to give us a high quality

acoustic experience for ages to come.
