Sound Advice on Upselling Acoustical Treatments

Atlas can provide a complete masking solution using masking generators, equalizers, amplifiers, masking speakers and equipment racks, says the company’s Steve Brooks. The ASP-MG24TDB 4-channel masking generator has a time scheduler, allowing pre-programmed masking level changes 24/7/365.

In retrofit applications, the “Initial Ramp Commission” section of the ASPMG24TDB software allows the initial masking levels to be set very low, then slowly ramping up a dB or so every day until the final level is achieved. Occupants in the space are unaware of this and become accustomed to the low level sound without any negative responses, Brooks notes.
