The New, Ultra-Powerful SoniX Matrices from Helvia

Helvia’s SoniX line establishes itself as the nerve center of modern professional audio systems — a scalable, integrated platform that combines powerful DSP matrices, native Dante connectivity, and intuitive interfaces for conference, multi-zone, live, and corporate installations.

Designed to handle up to 32x32 sources and outputs (combined analog and digital) with surgical precision, the range leverages SHARC processors from Analog Devices for 32/40-bit floating-point processing and advanced proprietary algorithms such as AEC for echo cancellation, AFS for feedback suppression, ANS for noise reduction, and automatic AGC — ensuring crystal-clear sound even in challenging acoustic environments.

At the heart of the series are the SoniX M0808D and SoniX M1616D matrices, featuring 8x8 or 16x16 integrated Dante channels alongside analog line/mic I/Os equipped with 48V phantom power, gain up to 48dBu, dynamic range over 110dB, and an ultra-low THD+N of just 0.003%. Each channel includes a complete processing chain — compressors, expanders, 12-band PEQ, delay up to 1200ms, output limiters, and a 5-level priority auto mixer.

On the control side, 8 GPIO ports, RS-232/485 interfaces, and TCP/IP connectivity enable smooth integration with up to 64 PTZ cameras, making them ideal for automatic tracking in conference rooms or corporate events. The dedicated PC software features a clean, intuitive Windows interface that allows quick custom presets in minutes, while Android/iOS mobile apps and front USB ports for playback and recording add day-to-day flexibility — with system latency under 3ms and a maximum consumption of only 40W in a standard 1U rack format.

A full range of accessories and interfaces further extends the SoniX line to any format or application. For immediate and decentralized control, the SoniX CT4W 4" touch panel with 480x480 TFT display, 1.6GHz ARM quad-core CPU, PoE, and microSD support joins the lineup, alongside the SoniX AD2 and SoniX DA2 Plug&Play analog/Dante XLR converters with PoE, and the SoniX UD2 USB Type-C 2x2 to Dante bridge, ensuring maximum flexibility and interoperability.

These peripherals extend SoniX matrices across scalable Ethernet networks, reducing bulky analog cabling and taking advantage of Dante’s precise synchronization for hundreds of uncompressed channels — the perfect choice for integrators demanding uncompromised pro-audio quality. In an ecosystem where computational power reaches 400 MIPS / 1600 MFLOPS and channel isolation exceeds 108dB, the SoniX series turns complexity into simplicity, elevating every installation to lasting professional standards.
