Designed to adapt, Genelec’s Smart Active Monitor (SAM™) Compact range draws on a suite of technologies to make the most of all modern acoustic environments.
As studio space becomes limited and listening areas more confined, so recordings are taking place in a wider variety of locations, many with minimal acoustic treatment. The Smart monitors and Smart subwoofers of the Compact Series are designed to adapt and assist.
Controlled by the proprietary Genelec Loudspeaker Manager (GLM™) 2.0 software, SAM Compact systems use ground-breaking AutoCal™ to create an optimised and controlled monitoring environment. After automatic calibration, monitoring set-ups ranging from simple stereo to immersive audio will perform with the consistency upon which you rely, compensating for deficiencies in the listening environment.
Nor are SAM Systems limited to one configuration – thanks to GLM and AutoCal, any number of listening positions can be catered for, with fully recallable settings to suit your needs.
Be Smart – let SAM take on the hard work of system optimisation, so you don’t have to.
Easy enough to carry with you yet packed with today’s most advanced monitoring technology, the 8320A will make the most of your recording environment, no matter where you choose to work.
Small but mighty, the two-way, Class-D bi-amplified 8320A blends a deceptively powerful 4-inch woofer with Genelec’s renowned acoustic design expertise and world-leading Smart Active Monitoring (SAM™) technology. Each SAM system is designed to adapt and assist, working with proprietary Genelec Loudspeaker Manager (GLM™) 2.0 software to deliver a suite of ground-breaking functions. Allow AutoCal™ to ensure your monitoring system is perfectly calibrated to your listening environment, compensating for detrimental room influences to create a truly optimised monitoring solution. Use GLM 2.0 to manage up to 30 Smart monitors and subwoofers, allowing you to mix the way you want, from simple stereo to ambitious immersive audio setups. Delve deep into control options including full recall of settings for different listening positions.
All this combines with the colour-free accuracy of the Minimum Diffraction Enclosure (MDE™), and precise on- and off-axis frequency reproduction of the Directivity Control Waveguide (DCW™). The result is the ideal small monitor to fit the way you work.
