Amadeus Acoustics is launching Amadeus Immersive Sound Next Generation at booth 7H840. At the heart of this innovation is the Immersive Performance module, ART::IP, which represents a shift in the immersive audio ecosystem. Developed in response to increasingly complex venue architectures and rising creative expectations, ART::IP moves immersive sound beyond single-zone concepts into a truly scalable, multi-zone, three-dimensional spatial platform.

While previous immersive solutions delivered compelling spatialization in standard room layouts, ART::IP is engineered for real-world complexity: multiple audience zones, varied loudspeaker functions, optimized algorithms for acoustically challenging areas such as under balconies, and hybrid stage–surround systems. Shaped by real-world user feedback from leading immersive installations, it introduces a fundamentally new immersive engine that differentiates between performer-focused stage systems and fully spatial loudspeaker systems - even within the same loudspeaker. For example, ART::IP allows the main PA and immersive surround systems to operate within a single coherent design while retaining distinct processing roles: the PA functions as a performer-focused stage system optimized for clarity, power, and localization, while spatial loudspeakers provide envelopment and motion without relying on a central audience sweet spot. The operator controls this behavior at the source level via a simple switch, enabling either powerful stage-anchored reproduction or seamless transitions into the spatial field with precise localization.

Powersoft is set to unveil AnyMATE and its first implementation, SpeakerMATE, at booth 7F300. AnyMATE is a communication technology based on a proprietary protocol and a patent-pending physical-layer implementation. Rather than relying on Ethernet or wireless connections, AnyMATE exchanges data directly via an amplifier’s output channels. This makes it possible to identify and monitor downstream devices without deploying a separate control network, aligning closely with the realities of installed audio environments that often feature long cable runs, Hi-Z architectures and legacy infrastructure.

SpeakerMATE represents the first practical application of the AnyMATE platform. The compact hardware module establishes communication between amplifiers and passive loudspeakers and can be deployed either as an external add-on near the speaker or integrated directly by loudspeaker manufacturers. For retrofit applications, SpeakerMATE connects in parallel with the speaker line via quick-splice connectors and requires no dedicated power supply, simplifying installation and minimizing downtime.

Once installed, SpeakerMATE devices are automatically discovered and configured through Powersoft’s Armonía+ software. Additional data can be written to the device in advance, including speaker brand and model information, enabling the system to suggest appropriate presets and helping to reduce configuration errors during commissioning.
