Neumann Multichannel Extension for MA 1 (Digitalt produkt)

The Neumann Multichannel Extension for MA 1 is an advanced upgrade designed to enhance the functionality of the MA 1 Automatic Monitor Alignment system, allowing it to handle complex multichannel audio setups. Originally intended for stereo configurations, the MA 1 system now supports surround and immersive formats, such as 5.1, 7.1, 5.1.4, and 7.1.4, making it highly valuable for modern audio production environments.

• Support for Multichannel Formats: The extension supports configurations including Quad, 5.1, 7.1, and immersive formats like 5.1.4 and 7.1.4, with up to four subwoofers. It works seamlessly with Neumann’s network-enabled KH Line monitors, ensuring precise acoustic alignment in these setups.
• Room-Adaptive Target Curve: The system generates a room-adaptive target curve based on precise measurements of the listening environment. This curve is crucial for compensating for room modes and optimizing filter settings to correct acoustic problems effectively.
• Improved Monitoring Accuracy: The extension helps maintain consistent sound character across all speakers in the system, which is critical when panning audio sources in a multichannel setup. This consistency prevents the misinterpretation of sonic variations as directional cues, ensuring a reliable and immersive listening experience.
• Integration with MA 1: The Multichannel Extension is integrated into MA 1 version 2.0 and can be activated with a purchased license key. It is compatible with both Mac and PC platforms and requires the use of a Neumann MA 1 measurement microphone.
• Future-Proofing: While the current version supports specific setups, future updates are expected to expand compatibility to more multichannel formats and configurations, making the system even more versatile.

This extension is ideal for audio professionals who need to manage and optimize multichannel audio systems in environments that may not have been originally designed for such setups. It delivers Neumann's signature precision and reliability, ensuring that the sound quality in complex setups is as accurate as possible.
