room shaker
The Room Shaker is a cost-optimized real-time DSP for home theater subwoofers. It is designed to boost ultra-low and infrasonic frequency content (in the 5 to 40 Hz range) in any input signal. It is fully compatible with the filter format used by BEQDesigner, so the Room Shaker can be used to implement pre-existing BEQ curves. Adaptive mode allows the Room Shaker to automatically balance bass output. Don't leave performance on the table - get the most out of your subwoofers! The Room Shaker features:
• 480 MHz Cortex-M7 CPU with DSP
• 48 kHz, 24 bit ADC and DAC
• 2 independent inputs and outputs
• USB-C interface to upload BEQ or custom filters
• Adaptive mode to automatically balance bass spectrum
• Designed, assembled, and tested by hand in the USA
Digital filters are implemented as biquads. Up to four cascaded biquad filters can be utilized simultaneously.
The Room Shaker is NOT intended to be used with REW and does not include a microphone input. It is intended to be used with pre-determined biquad filters, which may come from BEQDesigner, the Biquad Cookbook, or any other source!
To get started uploading custom filters to a Room Shaker device, download the latest Room Shaker by following the instructions below:
