Audio Engineering Society Europe 2023 Convention, Helsinki, May 13 – 15

The Audio Engineering Society Europe 2023 Convention is set to take place at Aalto University, Espoo, Helsinki, Finland, May 13 – 15. This 75th AES anniversary year convention gathers top names and technologies from around the world for three days of presentations and events aimed at strengthening attendees’ audio knowledge and presence in the industry. AES Europe 2023 will bring together leaders in audio research, technology and education for three days of audio immersion, featuring over 140 workshops, paper presentations, and sessions.

Genelec introduced it's new-generation studio monitors, basically taking everything that was done for the existing 8351 model and creating a complete range with three sizes. The 8351 is now joined by the smaller 8341 and 8331 monitors. The new series is called "The Ones" because Genelec believes they offer the Ultimate Point Source monitoring solution. According to Genelec’s R&D Director, Aki Mákivirta, this was a long effort to achieve the exact same design precision in the two new monitor sizes.

Introduced during the 137th Audio Engineering Society (AES) Convention in Los Angeles, CA, the new Genelec 8351A Acoustically Coaxial Smart Active Monitor (SAM) System is a tri-amplified studio near-field monitor with an ingenious design that introduces enhanced directivity control at lower frequencies in a relatively small speaker. This brilliant design reflects the Finish brand’s “outside-the-box” thinking improving the reference in recording studios. This article was originally published in audioXpress, June 2015.
