Summer 2018<\/strong>” during check out and you’ll receive the discount. Thanks again for the continuing support. Sales of the book have exceeded my wildest expectations. At this rate, I’ll have to go back to the printer and order another couple thousand copies!<\/p>\nThe biggest news of the week is the arrival of YARRA 3DX units in San Diego. As many of you are campaign backers \u2014 like me \u2014 I thought I would provide a brief update on production status. I’m no longer consulting for Comhear, the company behind this remarkable sound bar, but am obligated to complete the accompanying Set Up and Demo DVD. To that end, I visited the company headquarters last Thursday and was very pleased to see boxes full of final production units sitting in the tech area! My YARRA 3DX friends urged me to videotape an “unpackaging” video, which will be made available shortly. I spent over an hour with the software guru tuning one of the YARRA 3DX units in their demo room. There were a few filter settings and tweaks needed to get the unit sounding right but ultimately the acoustics of the space proved difficult (a square room with hard walls). So I’m pushing hard for the company to allocate the time and resources to book the AIX Records studio to do a final “voicing” of the sound bar and firmware. How great would it be to have the final tweaks done in the same room where I mixed and mastered the tunes included on the demo disc? I believe this is going to happen.<\/p>\n
I also got a chance to play with the application. While it’s not required to operate the unit, there are some features that make using your YARRA 3DX much easier. Positioning the multiple sweet spots, graphic EQ, presets, mutes, and HRTF selection. It’s doesn’t look as slick as the mock up I designed two years ago but it does do work. There are Mac iOS and Android versions. All YARRA 3DXs come with a remote control as well.<\/p>\n
And I convinced the team to let me take one of the final production models home with me. It’s still in the box but will have a grand unveiling tomorrow. I’ll take some additional pictures and go through things in detail. It’s been a long process but the YARRA 3DX promises to shake up the sound bar marketplace in terms of features and value. Stay patient. I believe we’re only a couple of months at the most from getting units in our hands. I’m so glad that company management has come through! Non of us wanted a repeat of the OSSIC X debacle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
