The Venueflex  Processor is a proprietary multifunction digital signal processor with active acoustics, object-based mixing, active bass control, and immersive audio processing.

Technologies

Venueflex Technologies are designed to address common audio challenges and provide greater artistic control. They are true to the principles of traditional acoustics but integrate into modern system and room design.

Active Acoustics

Active Acoustics processing creates a unique andaccurate acoustical “signature” that matches theacoustical performance of the room in which it isbeing installed. By selectively routing signalsthrough the processor, the natural reflective soundof the room can be lifted and controlled artisticallywith much greater spatial realism thanconventional “reverb” processors. Reflections arerendered through an array of purpose-builtloudspeakers distributed throughout the room.

Object-Based Mixing

“Dry” immersive audio inputs from a mixing console are routed, timed and distributed properly to the same loudspeakers used for adaptive
acoustics. This allows “surround” type mixing, console-based effects or theatrical audio content to be distributed spatially throughout the room with no additional investment
in hardware.

Active Bass
Control

Reduce power alleys and coverage nulls. Our processors continually sample the subwoofer drive signals from an installed audio system, and produces complementary and adaptive signals to drive numerous low-frequency control loudspeakers distributed around the room. This creates tighter, more controlled sub-bass response for an improved audio experience.

TQ
Processing

TQ processing implements the proprietary technologies developed by Fulcrum Acoustic founder, David Gunness. TQ (temporal equalization) processing is a highly precise application of DSP, exploiting optimized Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filters to fine-tune loudspeaker performance. TQ processing results in natural-sounding spectral balance; a  pleasing aesthetic balance between highly transient sources (such as percussion instruments) and less transient sources (such as human voice); uncolored vocals and excellent intelligibility.

Fulcrum One Software

The Venueflex Processor runs exclusively on Fulcrum One Software. Fulcrum One is the all-in-one software solution for the design, simulation and control of acoustics, loudspeaker & immersive systems. No more switching applications. Use the same program from design conception to audio control.

Design

Plan and arrange your speakers, acoustical treatments, and immersive components in 3D.

Simulate

Predict how your sound system will behave indifferent configurations and acoustical conditions.

Optimize

Adjust speaker settings, equalization, and other parameters.

Control

Manage Fulcrum Immersive tools, loudspeaker processing, speaker arrays, adaptive steering, and other components seamlessly from a centralized interface.

For our historical sanctuary, we wanted to find a way to modernize our sound system and acoustic design while maintaining the character that our congregation has loved for generations.​

Venueflex Active Acoustics allows us to use a pipe organ in our traditional service and a rock band in our contemporary service, all while maintaining the sonic character unique to both worship styles.
