Make Your Experiences Come Alive with Embodied Sound
Merging pure-haptic audio and high-fidelity planar speakers, Edge Sound Research's patent-pending ResonX Core represents a first-of-its-kind technology. As an integral component of the company's state-of-the-art Embodied Sound systems, the ResonX Core infuses any physical surface with full-range tactility from 7Hz to 5kHz and a smooth audible range from 80Hz to 17kHz. ResonX redefines our relationship with sound, removing physical boundaries and enabling everyday objects — from furniture to clothing — to come alive with rich, dynamic audio. Whether you're in a home theater or at a public event, a simple tap on a seat with your smartphone unlocks personalized soundscapes tailored to your preferences. By harnessing controlled vibration to replicate subtle sensations, ResonX seamlessly bridges the physical and digital realms, forging a future where audio is not only heard but felt: embodied, intuitive, and deeply woven into daily life.
Note: The ResonX Core is a single component of an Edge Sound Research Embodied Sound system. To configure an Embodied Sound system for your specific needs, please contact your Sweetwater Sales Engineer.

Embodied Sound: a new dimension of sonic immersion
What if you could feel the crack of a home run just as vividly from a luxury box as you could from behind home plate? Or experience the bass-thumping intensity of a front-row concert from the balcony — or even your living room? That's the essence of Embodied Sound, the revolutionary technology from Edge Sound Research that transforms any seat in the house into the best one.
Embodied Sound isn't about bigger speakers or another vibrating cushion. It's a fully immersive, multisensory experience that goes far beyond conventional audio and haptic systems. By intelligently blending acoustic and tactile vibrational elements with real-time environmental metadata, ESR creates a dynamic, spatial soundscape that you don't just hear — you inhabit. At the core of this system is a pixel-based sonic mosaic, powered by advanced algorithms that map the audio environment — for example, a concert, a car chase, or a clutch buzzer-beater — and deliver each component with stunning precision, depth, and presence. From stadiums and studios to home theaters and houses of worship, ESR's Embodied Sound redefines how we experience sound, making it not just audible, but fully alive.
Edge Sound Research: reimagining the way we experience sound
Edge Sound Research was born out of a university initiative led by company founder Dr. Ethan Castro, who set out to solve a deeply personal challenge: how to fully experience sound while living with hearing loss. What started as an academic project quickly evolved into a groundbreaking journey to redefine how people perceive and interact with audio. Together with CEO Val Salomaki and a dedicated team of engineers, designers, and visionaries, Dr. Castro pioneered Embodied Sound, a revolutionary technology that's transforming the live audio landscape. From game development and music production to live events and immersive experiences, Edge Sound Research is reshaping how creators connect with their audiences. Now, with Sweetwater as a partner, Edge Sound Research is expanding its mission, bringing Embodied Sound to larger venues, studios, houses of worship, home theaters, and beyond. Through its innovations, Edge Sound Research is ensuring the future of sound isn't just louder — it's visceral, inclusive, and undeniably powerful.
