is there any info when the dirac active room treatment come to other devices as Storm Audio exclusive ?

[bennybbbx]

Storm audio is very expensive and i read that the dirac live active treatment currently is only for this systems exclusive available . now near 2 years are gone. still not here for PC or other.
I have write to dirac support when active room treatment come to other devices. I get no answer. maybe somebody know more or @amirm get a answer when he ask how long storm audio have exclusive rights on this.

maybe it is even more better as arc 4 https://www.dirac.com/online-store/stormaudio-isp-core-16/

• Calibrate your speakers as a unified system
• Actively cancel out lingering bass and reduce room decay time
• Creates a larger, more uniform “sweet spot”
• Reduces the need for in-room acoustical treatment

I heard some rumours - absolutely unsubstantiated though - that D&M will still work on ART implementation. However, they do have some requirement that Dirac would need to meet before the implementation. Not sure exactly what the terms are but it is not a blanket support statement.

One of concerns that I see (might be wrong so please correct me if so) between the lines is that if one has 4 subs, you need to split them in the LFE and support groups, so eventually you would loose the support group subs for LFE, which is pretty taxing. That is a problem for D&M and can't be easily solved like on Storm where one can just run the same subs as support and LFE through different Storm sub outputs and different sub inputs - obviously at the cost of more output channels required from Storm. D&M has 4 independent subs as max and that already is not great but could work for most setups.
