US release timeframes

Sonnet 3 “expected early 2025”

Sonnet 2 released WITHOUT ASM 3 active in January 2020, ASM 3 firmware release August 2021

Sonnet released WITHOUT ASM 2 active in spring 2015, ASM 2 firmware release spring 2017

 

Getting approved by the FDA seems to lag behind the CE Mark.  And when a new sound management system is implemented it seems to take quite a bit longer to be released in the US.  Those features were active in the Sonnet series processors upon release in CE Mark countries.

Automatic sound management (ASM) features like wind block, natural mic setting, adaptive mic setting, transient noise reduction, ambient noise reduction, automatic changing based on sound environment using adaptive intelligence mild or strong 

 

ASM 3 (most current sound management) was introduced in Sonnet 2 in fall of 2019 and in Rondo 3 in fall 2020.  Sonnet 3 states it continues to use ASM 3.

ASM 2 was introduced in Sonnet in 2014 and never introduced in Rondo series.

ASM or as some are calling it now ASM 1 is being used in Rondo 2, Rondo 1 and OPUS 2 processors.
