Engineer algorithm concept

One of the main features of the Martin Audio Engineer is the Engineer algorithm itself. Think of the Engineer

algorithm as a real-life sound engineer whom you can tell what kind of sound you'd like from your sound

system.

The underlying technology is quite complex and for this reason the system has been split up into a simple and

an advanced mode.

The problem

First, let’s look at the reason why one might want to use the Engineer algorithm.

Say we have a situation where we have a venue (maybe a bar or a restaurant) with an MP3 playing machine

taking care of the music. We tell the machine to play us a lounge background program and the following

happens:

 First we get a nicely produced music track, which has good dynamics and a proper mastering volume;

everything is fine and we set the total volume to the level we like it in the venue.

 The next track is very quiet with very little bass and treble so suddenly the music in the venue has

disappeared, totally drowned by the noise of talking people. A little annoyed we turn the volume up

to the desired level and add some bass and treble until we reach the desired sound again.

 Then suddenly a new song starts and this song is a very modern track which is mastered in such a way

that no dynamics are left at all. So suddenly the music feels 8 times as loud as you intended it and

everybody in the venue is putting their fingers in their ears and looking annoyed because the massive

amount of bass in the venue vibrates their drinks off the tables...
