TiMax used at IAA

Experiential sound design company, Panix GbR, has used TiMax audio control software, specifying the audio delay matrix for the grand scale commercial vehicle exhibition environments at the 165th IAA fair in Frankfurt.

For Hyundai, the Panix team deployed a single 32-channnel TiMax SoundHub 2 with MADI, to create a press conference for the manufacturer. Output was triggered both manually and via timecode. Elsewhere at IAA, Panix delivered the multichannel sound experience for the four-zone, 9000 m2 Volkswagen booth as part of a team lead by consultant Hansjörg Wenzel, from Filmtec Media GmbH. The four zones included three themed zones: ‘Perform’, ‘Connect’ and ‘Innovate’; alongside the main ‘Plaza’ zone.

Two TiMax SoundHub2 systems controlled audio for the zoned stand, 48 channels serving the Plaza, and 64 channels for the themed areas. In the main zone, TiMax maintained the stand ambience, pitching audio level above floor noise level but preserving easy conversation levels. Multitrack sounds had been studio created for the purpose in Pro Tools and these were programmed into the TiMax via MADI at set up and run directly from TiMax where they could be moved and morphed around the stand via a distributed system of D&B loudspeakers.

In each of the four zones, the LED stations output different video content, and TiMax controlled the individual 3D audioscapes for each, all on a loop and controlled by timecode. ‘Perform’ zone, for example featured a lot of sound effects with much more low frequency content.
