IRVINE, CA (07.10.24) – Audison has announced the release of its highly anticipated bit Drive 2.0 software, featuring the innovative ACCORDO auto-tuning. Now, at the push of a button, this cutting-edge technology offers an industry-first guarantee of audio quality configuration for DSP-equipped products.
Developed by the Audison R&D team, ACCORDO acoustically tunes a car audio system to a selected target with time and phase alignment. This innovative feature not only saves time but also ensures a high-quality audio experience. In a few moments, the step-by-step wizard procedure performs output EQ, level, and time delay adjustments using a single external microphone or soundcard. Simply connect your microphone, select a target curve, or create your own. ACCORDO does the rest.
“With ACCORDO, we are the only company that can guarantee high-quality sound in a vehicle to our dealers and their customers,” said Pietro Pantaleone, President of Elettromedia Group. “Now dealers and their technical staff can spend less time tuning a car audio system and get better results for their customers guaranteed by Audison.”
Audison bit Drive continues its lead as an industry-standard DSP software platform without the need for expensive external hardware. In addition to the extensive features from previous releases, bit Drive features a range of new tools, including:
Upmixer: A proprietary algorithm that creates a wider spatial image for driver and passenger seats, significantly improving the listening experience. The algorithm reproduces monophonic music content on the center speaker while maintaining stereophonic content on the left and right channels. Upmixer offers three modes (Wide, Default, Narrow) to match your stage width preferences.
Target Curve Management: Includes an eleven-band parametric/graphic EQ, six preloaded target curves, and import/export options for target curve files.
Preferential Memories: The device automatically switches to the selected memory whenever a source change occurs, ensuring a consistent and optimal listening experience.
Import EQ Settings from REW: Allows seamless import of EQ filter settings from REW for advanced acoustic measurements.
Advanced Time Delay Management: Streamlines the entry of output time delay settings with an integrated window in the main GUI.
Shortcuts: Enhances tuning efficiency with keyboard shortcuts compatible with QWERTY, QWERTZ, and AZERTY layouts.
“Audison has refined what we thought was the best system and made it better,” said Ken Ward, a car audio industry veteran with 30 years of experience. “There is no expensive equipment for the dealers, and anyone trained on bit Drive only needs to learn a few new features to offer customers a guaranteed high-quality audio experience.”
bit Drive 2.0 and the accompanying ACCORDO are available for free download now in the U.S. at Audison.com.
