GRAS Sound & Vibration Launches SysCheck2 Intelligent Acoustic Sensor System with Built-in Self-verification

Danish measurement microphone specialists GRAS Sound & Vibration, now a part of Axiometrix Solutions, announced two new microphones with SysCheck2 functionality allowing for remote-controlled health check of an entire measurement chain. The new microphones are the GRAS 246AE 1/2" CCP Free-field Standard SysCheck2 Microphone Set, and the GRAS 246AO 1/2" CCP Pressure Standard SysCheck2 Microphone Set, both featuring self-verification.

Thanks to its unprecedented partnership with Denmark’s Roskilde Festival, Meyer Sound realized a rare opportunity to make precision measurements on the effect of variable atmospheric conditions on concert sound reinforcement. Working under the direction of Meyer Sound Senior Scientist Roger Schwenke, a technical team installed multiple weather sensors and measurement microphones during last summer’s event to measure the effects of atmospheric conditions on audio system response at varying distances above ground level.
