HEAD acoustics Releases ACQUA v6.2.100, Improving Distortion and Audio Quality Analysis

HEAD acoustics announced ACQUA Release 6.2.100, an important update to the company's software platform for the complete speech and audio quality measurement chain, introducing a novel distortion analysis and more options in audio quality analysis. The new version 6.2.100 of ACQUA offers practical enhancements and optimizations that simplify your daily analysis tasks and further increase the accuracy of your measurement results.

With LEAP (Listening Effort Prediction from Acoustic Parameters) now integrated into ACQUA 6.1.100, HEAD acoustics offers an optional tool for on-site prediction of the perceived listening effort. The software predicts the perceived listening effort of a listener when hearing an impaired speech signal without the need for an undisturbed reference signal. This makes it possible to carry out measurements more efficiently under laboratory conditions and in real-world applications.

HEAD acoustics just announced the new ACQUA Release 6.1.100, reinforcing the possibilities as a complete voice and audio quality measurement chain for VoLTE, USB, A2B and Bluetooth design. The updated software adds support for HEAD acoustics latest ViBRIDGE pinna, the latest moveºS moving artificial head, EQUEST evaluation, and MDAQS perceptual evaluation solution, while introducing new extended features for automated measurement and signal analysis.

ACQUA 5.0.100 is the first iteration of the new generation of the well-established measurement and analysis software ACQUA from HEAD acoustics. ACQUA's significantly reworked software structure provides even greater flexibility for voice and audio quality evaluation, while paving the way for future expansions. Designed for the requirements in applications as diverse as communication systems, Bluetooth, ANC headphones, or smart speakers, ACQUA now supports faster hardware configuration, perceived loudness analysis, and MDAQS audio quality evaluation.
