“We realized early that the key has more to do with how we as humans perceive sound, vs. how sound was being reproduced.”
— Steve Curd, Co-founder & CEO

Our Technology
Our technology converts traditional stereo sound into audio built for your senses.
Introducing VSX
We teamed up with pro audio veteran Steven Slate to launch the Scaeva Powered, Slate Audio VSX headphone and modeling system. Our real-time Quadvolution technology and high precision hardware allows content creators to mix and master tracks on an array of virtual control room studio monitors. With just one more click, artists can test how tracks will sound inside of acar or through popular consumer headphones and more.
Scaeva and Slate jointly invented the patent-pending Acoustic Ported Subsonics™ (APS), an innovation in authentic sub-low frequencies reproduction in headphones.

Spatially Related Audio
A massive leap forward in mobile audio immersion
Unlike 360, 3D, or binaural audio, Spatially Related Audio (SR-Audio) enables sound field shaping in any direction, at any depth, and doesn’t require specially recording tracks to give listeners an immersive experience. SR-Audio unlocks the acoustical context behind a track, meaning you experience the full depth of the audio experience the artist intended.
Bottom line
SR-Audio enables us to experience sound that’s as vibrant and nuanced as a live performance.
With unparalleled clarity, you can transform your entire existing audio catalogue to hear what you’ve been missing.
Scaeva InSitu™ Sound
Get the full picture
Using innovations based on deeply-rooted human psychoacoustic principles, Scaeva InSitu recreates your favorite listening environments while delivering a vivid, crystal-clear audio experience.
How does it work?
Our ears are finely tuned to detect tiny changes in the acoustics around us, and that’s just the beginning of how we experience sound. We don’t just hear sound, we perceive sound. By stitching together complex acoustic signals in our environment, we create a single mental image.
When we listen to stereo recordings through typical headphones we don’t get the full picture. In fact, we only hear a small part of the artist’s original work.
Scaeva InSitu uses SR-Audio and high-precision acoustic capture techniques to fill in the gaps in our mental images. This results in the most powerful environmental emulation platform outside of a large scale studio.
