what it does
ART that scales
Overview
The ART::Hub 2 is the insignia hardware of the ART::Performance Line — a 2RU, industrial-grade processor purpose-built for ambitious, large-scale installations: theatres, concert halls, and other large venues. The same hardware ships in two software-defined configurations, each built around a different priority. Choose the one that matches what your venue needs most.
Performance v1 — Acoustics + Immersive, Together
Runs ART::AP (Acoustics Performance) and ART::IP v1 (Immersive Performance v1) simultaneously, so a single Hub 2 handles both room acoustics and immersive sound in the same venue at the same time.
Compatible modules: ART::AP, ART::IP v1
Up to 64 Active Acoustics microphones
Up to 64 Immersive Audio objects
Up to 128 loudspeaker outputs
Active Acoustics and Immersive Sound run simultaneously
48 kHz
3.9 ms latency
Performance v2 — Maximum Immersive Power
Dedicates the full Hub 2 to ART::IP v2 (Immersive Performance v2) alone — the first multizone immersive engine in the market. This configuration does not run Active Acoustics. In exchange, it delivers significantly more immersive headroom than v1.
Compatible module: ART::IP v2 only — Active Acoustics is not available in this configuration
256×256 delay and gain matrix
Up to 128 Immersive Audio objects
Up to 256 loudspeaker outputs
Full 3D, venue-related workflow, controlled through ART::Director
Independent setup and operation
