Fulcrum Acoustic, the Whitinsville, Mass.-based provider of professional loudspeakers, unveiled Fulcrum One, a system design and simulation software available for Windows and Mac. The Fulcrum One software streamlines the design, deployment and management of both traditional sound reinforcement and immersive audio systems within a single, user-friendly interface, says the company. The all-in-one nature of Fulcrum One saves time, reduces the need for multiple software applications and caters to the needs of diverse audio projects.
Incorporating the Fulcrum Acoustic loudspeaker catalog, Fulcrum One enables users to accurately plan and position loudspeakers within a 3D venue model. The software will also facilitate the creative design of active acoustics and object-based mixing components for immersive audio installations powered by the Fulcrum Immersive Venueflex processor.
