The Benefits of Advanced Sound Masking Technology (VoiceArrest Sound Masking System)
The VoiceArrest™ Sound Masking System is measurably the most effective sound masking system available. This new
advanced technology provides several benefits for almost any workplace. Here are a few of the benefits you will enjoy as a
result of new advanced technology
1. Comfortable Stress Relieving Privacy.
Open office floor plans are praised for their encouragement
of team building and communication. But these open-style offices can also create increased levels of stress among employees.
Even low-levels of noise at work reduce problem solving skills by almost 40 percent and significantly raise levels of stress
over those colleagues in quiet offices. These struggles with stress and concentration are primarily a result of the constant
distractions of surrounding discussions and a lack of privacy for your own confidential conversations.
The VoiceArrest™ was designed to provide acoustic comfort in such stressful environments. The gentle, background
sound covers conversations and distractions. No more interruptions from miscellaneous office noise. And no further worries
about who might overhear your confidential conversations.
Through the use of four-channel technology, the VoiceArrest™ System creates a well-rounded whooshing sound, much
like the hum of a high-end HVAC system, that blends naturally into the background unnoticed. The full, quadraphonic sound
spreads uniformly across the coverage area, with no distortions or variances that would be distracting. This effective sound
masking technology is so natural that you won’t even realize it is there.
2. Consistently Higher Privacy
The VoiceArrest™ Sound Masking System utilizes developments
in sound technology to provide a more consistent and effective level of privacy throughout the treated space. By using direct
field technology, the sound masking blends evenly into the background, with a more uniform sound in both volume and frequency
distribution.
This technology provides better privacy in two primary ways:
Greater levels of privacy per decibel of sound
output, with better coverage at lower volumes than other sound masking systems.
Consistent levels of privacy throughout
the entire coverage area; no “blind” spots or noisy corners.
3. Quieter, Less Intrusive Privacy
Because the VoiceArrest™ Sound Masking System
delivers both spatial and spectral uniformity of sound, this technology can operate at lower levels than competitive systems
and still provide effective voice masking and privacy. Most masking systems must operate at 48 to 51 decibels of sound in
order to provide acceptable privacy for most of the office space. The VoiceArrest™ system, however, is normally operated
at 45 decibels under the same conditions. The increased effectiveness of the VoiceArrest™ Sound Masking System provides
for equivalent privacy and quieter, background sound. Or if you require even higher levels of privacy than most offices, you
can utilize the higher settings without increasing the noise to an intrusive level.
4. Controlled Placement of Privacy
With other masking systems, the air space above the ceiling
is utilized to distribute the white noise for sound masking. When the masking is delivered in appropriate volumes above the
open cubicles, the sound also echoes in the ceiling above the closed offices, even though there are no loudspeakers present;
the result is often excessive noise levels in the closed office. The old systems could only resolve this problem by lowering
the settings which resulted in less consistent privacy across the open office space.
The Direct Field technology used by the VoiceArrest™ System provides better control over the sound distribution
in an area shared by both open cubicles and closed offices. The sound masking intended for the open office area is entirely
restricted to the open area, with no echoing or bleed over effect in the closed offices or conference rooms. If there are
enclosed spaces that also require sound masking, separate zones can be established with their own levels and controls entirely
independent of the necessary coverage of any open office area.
5. Privacy + Paging + Music
The VoiceArrest™ Sound Masking System also has the ability
to utilize the sound masking speakers to add paging and/or music. The balanced placement of our high quality speakers provides
the cleanest paging system on the market without the typical “startle” effect. Background music can also be added
from a wide variety of sources.
6. Cost Effective Privacy
"VoiceArrest Sound Masking System" Businesses and other facilities
are looking for a cost-effective way to provide speech privacy. The VoiceArrest™ Speech Privacy Sound Masking System
can meet this need. While providing state of the art speech privacy, the VoiceArrest™ system utilizes more effective
technology and methods, allowing them to offer their technological and performance enhancements at a modest, completive price,
even when compared to the older, less effective products.
