Volumetric systems

Volumetric Wavefield Synthesis systems

Sound that originates inside the listening space — designed per project.

Systems built from EDC's volumetric building blocks so that spatial image, level and frequency response are consistent for every listener. Configured to the venue; the InfoComm 2025 Best of Show installation is the reference.

  • Regenerates the intended sound image independently for every listener
  • Removes the boundary limitation of stereo, surround and object-based systems

Each Volumetric Wavefield Synthesis system is designed to meet project requirements and is highly customisable from foundational building blocks. The technology reconstructs the sound field throughout the listening volume rather than projecting it inward from the perimeter, so the sweet spot expands to the whole audience.

An EDC session is a technical evaluation of sound behaviour, not a sales demonstration. See reflections reduced, coverage stabilised and spatial accuracy preserved — modelled first, then measured.
