The VAE® Rehearsal System from Wenger is an amazing instrument that’s reshaping how directors teach and students learn. Its advanced audio technology enhances your rehearsal room acoustics to accelerate learning. It can vividly mimic the sound of performing in nine different environments including a cathedral, an arena or your own school’s auditorium – at the push of a button.

 

A revolutionary new instrument for teaching music

School auditoriums are heavily scheduled places. So trying to find time for your choral and instrumental groups to practice on stage can be difficult. The same goes when you are preparing for a special occasion in a large performance venue. Practicing in the dry environment of your rehearsal room can be limiting – unless you have VAE Rehearsal.

Easing the transition from the rehearsal to the performance environment allows students to focus more on the skills and habits they’ve developed in rehearsal and less on the unfamiliar performance space. VAE rehearsal comes with the same capabilities as all our VAE systems and includes the ability to be programmed to simulate the acoustics of your own auditorium.

Wenger's new Virtual Acoustic Environment (VAE) technology uses highly advanced active acoustics to simulate nine different acoustic environments...all within the same rehearsal room...at the touch of a button. We can even custom program any of the nine presets to simulate other acoustic environments of your choosing.

 

The Wenger Advantage

Practice Where You Perform – Musicians refine their skills more efficiently in the rehearsal room when they can realistically hear what they will sound like in the actual performance space.

Nine Performance Environments – The musician can practice in a broad range of performance environments, ranging from a small recital hall to a cathedral.

Program up to nine custom settings – Wenger can add your own custom acoustical setting to simulate your auditorium or a performance venue

Record/Playback Capability – Record your practice session and get immediate feedback during your session. Or record your session and take it to your next lesson for review.

Upload Capability – Upload accompaniments to practice with the rest of the group while in your practice session.

 

VAE Rehearsal’s ability to instantly change the acoustics of your practice space is an amazing learning tool. In addition to the eight standard virtual environments, Wenger can customize a setting that mimics your own auditorium or performance space.

STUDIO • BAROQUE ROOM • MEDIUM RECITAL • LARGE RECITAL • CUSTOM SETTING • MEDIUM AUDITORIUM • LARGE AUDITORIUM • CATHEDRAL • ARENA

 

Fill your room with sound

A full classroom of vocalists or an entire band or orchestra isn’t too large a group for VAE.

 

The control panel

Change the settings, raise the volume, record and playback right from the portable control panel.

 

The microphones

Strategically-placed microphones pick up every string pluck or whispered note.

 

Ceiling and wall speakers

Depending on the size of your room, Wenger will determine how many ceiling and wall speakers are needed to optimize the sound. The result is an amazing transformation of the acoustic space. You won’t believe your ears.
