The challenge: To produce optimum sound masking
for all work space characteristics. Parameters such as
size, type of ceiling, wall coverings, and furnishings have
a direct influence on the propagation of sound masking.
If the masking system is not properly calibrated to the
specific conditions of the room, it becomes ineffective
and irritating.
The advantage of SmartSMS is that it adapts to
characteristics that are specific to each work environ-
ment. Its unique calibration system (patent pending)
uses a microphone to measure the acoustic response
and the background noise in the space. Based on this
data, it automatically calculates the noise spectrum
that must be used to emit a soft, uniform, and non-
disruptive masking noise.
Rapid calibration, accurate results
With SmartSMS, a masking zone can be completely
calibrated in less than one minute, thanks to the sys-
tem’s sophisticated algorithm, which automatically
carries out all necessary calculations. Not only is
it fast, but it is also incomparably accurate! SmartSMS
stands out for its automatic noise spectrum com-
position adjustment – SmartSMS automatically
adjusts third-octave bands.
Unique automatic equalization process
SmartSMS ensures precise adjustment of the masking spectrum
Guaranteed quality of installation
The calibration quality is measured by the
system’s integrated frequency analyzer.
At a glance, it provides indications as to whether
the masking generated is in complete conformity
with the noise spectrum sought. Therefore, from
the moment when it starts operating, SmartSMS
emits an ideal sound masking and does not
require masking spectrum readjustment.
