Auto-calibration streamlines system configuration, and settings can be adjusted over the network using the free MASM-1 management software — with no batteries to monitor. Beamforming technology combined with Sony’s Intelligent Feedback Reducer produces clear, hands-free speech reinforcement while suppressing feedback. Advanced noise reduction automatically detects and reduces stationary background noise from projectors and air conditioning for better intelligibility, and automatic gain control maintains stable volume regardless of the presenter’s distance from the microphone, freeing them to move around the room without audio quality deteriorating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCreation Networks supplies the MASA100 for commercial-grade AV integration, with companion Sony products available at \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/creationnetworks.net\"\u003ecreationnetworks.net\u003c\/a\u003e.
