Staging,
the
driver and passengers are immersed in an
"audio
scene"
recreating
the natural atmosphere of an auditorium:
truly
a
part
of
the
scene
and its surroundings.
This
new
sensation
is
made possible by software in the audio
system
which
processes
the digital signals from the media players
(radio,
CD,

without changing the audio settings.
This
processing
takes
account
of the characteristics of the passenger
compartment
to
produce
optimum results.
The
Arkamys© software installed in your audio system processes the
digital
signal from the media players (radio, CD, MP3, ...) and
recreates
a
natural musical scene, with harmonious placement of
instruments
and voices in the space in front of passengers, level with
the
windscreen.
