APPLICATIONS

 

Achieve acoustical privacy in open and partitioned office areas by installing Atlas Sound’s self-

 

contained, audio masking system — The Masker. Compact assembly adds low-level sound into

 

environment to obscure ambient noise, achieving conversational privacy in designated areas.

 

Easy-to-install system may be used in general application to increase privacy and/or productivi-

 

ty in individual cubical and work areas by “blocking out” surrounding conversation. It is also

 

used in individual office areas, common waiting areas, and professional offices where confiden-

 

tial conversations occur. The equalized masking sound lowers intelligibility and “masks” disrup-
