Smyth Research A16 Realize AES3

The Realiser A16 is a real-time multi-speaker sound room rendering processor for headphone monitoring. The A16 implements the SVS virtualisation technology, supporting sound room and headphone personalisation together with head tracking for two separate listeners and is capable of replicating sound rooms of up to 16 speakers* with unprecedented realism. Audio that is to be rendered can be input through a variety of audio interfaces including, USB, HDMI (2.0b) and balanced line. The A16 also includes Dolby Atmos, dts-X and Auro3D** decoders for bit-streams input via HDMI, eARC or SPDIF. A 16-ch balanced line output is also provided for audio loop-back and to facilitate sound room personalization measurements. RENDERING INPUTS
