VENTURE™ is Sound Design Technologies' high-end family of products designed on the VOYAGUER™ platform. It combines the power and capabilities of Voyageur with SOUNDesign® Advanced Research, delivering cutting-edge features and high performance. The Venture family delivers 3 products that each have their own advanced functionality. The GA3217 has an adaptive feedback canceller to shut down feedback noise before it becomes a problem. The GA3218 has 128-band adaptive noise reduction to enhance clarity of speech in noise. The GA3219 incorporates both 128-band adaptive noise reduction and an adaptive feedback canceller for a complete high-end solution.
Venture's adaptive noise reduction preserves perceived speech levels without causing distortion. It monitors noise levels independently in 128 individual bands. This strategy also employs advanced psychoacoustic models to eliminate audible noise and reduce the amount of perceptible artifacts introduced by the noise reduction algorithms.
Based on a feedback cancellation method, Venture's adaptive feedback cancellation algorithm provides increased maximum stable gain unlike other feedback strategies. Additionally, it features rapid adjustment for dynamic feedback situations, immunity to tonal inputs and much more.
In addition to these adaptive algorithms, Venture also supports the following features:
FRONTWAVE® directional processing, cross fading between audio paths for click-free memory changes, 8-band graphic equalizer, 8 generic biquad filters (configurable as parametric or other filter types), programming speed enhancements, optional peak clipping, flexible compression adjustments, programmable tones for memory change and low battery indicators, wideband gain, volume control and industry-leading security features to avoid cloning and software piracy.
