Valtteri Salomaki and Ethan Castro, founders of EDGE Sound Research, are bringing new pro audio technology pro sport. Meet Embodied Sound, designed to bring sound not only to the ears of their listeners but to their entire bodies. They recently performed a high-profile audio installation at the VIP experience at the multipurpose Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas. LEA Professional helped deliver completely immersive sound to the guests.
Castro, born with conditions that would eventually leave him hard of hearing at a young age, had to rely on how the audio felt instead of how it sounded and would hug his father’s loudspeakers to ensure he could feel every vibration. Now, Castro focuses on combining hearing and feeling to create a new form of audio reproduction that everyone can experience. When he met Salomaki and shared his research, it was clear that the two were bound to create something amazing.
