Congratulations to Dr. Wolfgang Ahnert and ADA - Acoustic Design Ahnert
|
|
|
2015 is the year of big anniversaries and AFMG is both happy and honored to have such a rich and unique history.
Our cofounder Dr. Wolfgang Ahnert turned 70 in May this year. Dr. Ahnert is well-known around the world for being a pioneer of sound reinforcement engineering and the designer of the EASE® acoustic simulation software. Through his numerous articles and books, next to German published also in English, Russian and Chinese, as well as his membership in various societies as the DEGA, AES, ASA, and IOA, Wolfgang Ahnert made landmark contributions to the growing field of electro- and room acoustics until today.
25 years ago in September 1990, only shortly after the reunification of Germany, Dr. Ahnert founded the engineering office ADA. EASE, the "Enhanced Acoustic Simulator for Engineers", which had been developed under Dr. Ahnert's guidance since 1981, quickly grew from an academic research project into a commercial product fostered by ADA. EASE benefited greatly from the profound experience that was gained by ADA in many high-ranking projects around the globe.
The team of AFMG sends its
best wishes and sincerest congratulations
to Dr. Ahnert and ADA.

Patent granted for SysTune's SSA Filter
|
|
With the SSA Filter, AFMG has come up with a unique tool to help users achieve reliable, stable measurements even in noisy environments and when using a measurement signal like speech or music which does not continuously provide sufficient signal content on all frequencies. The SSA Filter makes sure that no irrelevant information (e.g. noises from truss hammering, a starting fork lift or a screaming audience) contaminates continuous measurements.
AFMG's sophisticated algorithms for the SSA Filter have now been patented.

AFMG Celebrates One Year of Cloud-Based Technical Support
|
|
Many AFMG customers might not have noticed the changes made to our support infrastructure a year ago. Today, it is time to celebrate! The cloud-based help system that has been introduced by our support team in September 2014 has passed all tests.
Established to promote streamlined cooperation between members of the AFMG support team located in different countries and time zones, the system that goes by the name of "Help Scout" allows everybody of the team to access the same tickets and see the full history of each case. This way, customers receive informed answers to their questions even outside office hours in their respective time zones.
