Outline Awarded Patent for Warped Finite Impulse Response (WFIR) Technology

Following the Italian patent awarded in 2021 to the Outline Newton, an FPGA-based audio processor, the Brescia-based company announced it has now also received a domestic patent for its Warped Finite Impulse Response (WFIR) technology. The Italian manufacturer of professional loudspeaker systems - a pioneer in line-source and adjustable line arrays systems for large scale applications - continues to invest in new loudspeaker-related technologies and has already also applied for an international patent.

JBL Professional introduced FIR (Finite Impulse Response) Tunings for its AE (Application Engineered) Series, providing further enhanced performance for the premium installation loudspeaker line. 70 individual AE Series FIR filter files ensure support for a wide range of configurations and applications, optimizing frequency response and phase response to a finer degree of precision than traditionally possible with standard IIR “parameter-based” filters.

Waves Audio has launched its anticipated Waves Tracks Live multitrack recording software solution for live sound applications, allowing switching between recording and virtual soundcheck. The company also announced its new H-Reverb, a pioneering reverb based on Finite Impulse Response technology.

PreSonus StudioLive AI Active Integration are now the first Dante-enabled active loudspeakers on the market. PreSonus is already shipping the promised SL-Dante-SPK upgrade option card, offering connection for Dante audio networking and remote control via the free SL Room Control application for StudioLive AI-series loudspeakers.
