Comprehensive Automotive Active Sound Design part 1: electric and combustion vehicles

摘要

The optimization of vehicle sound does not only require the optimization of each component, but the optimization of the combination of the different sounds in order to achieve a homogenous and effective overall sound. Active Sound Design methods offer new possibilities to achieve this ambitious aim, and furthermore to align the overall sound to the Brand Identity, neosonic has developed the modular comprehensive Active Sound Design system elvis3 (ELaborate Vehicle Integrated Sound Signature System) which integrates all audio aspects of the vehicle into one comprehensive tool chain. One component of the system, elvis3 e-motion, is the world's first system used in series in an electric vehicle to create interior vehicle sound (AMG SLS ED Coupe). With the innovative signature-based approach the AMG sound of the 21st century has been realized. A second component, elvis3 Cesar, implements sophisticated support for vehicles with combustion engines using refined signal processing. These two components will be explained in detail along with the flexible system concept. Advanced system modules and applications are part of the second presentation.
