Is Your TV Either Shouting or Whispering? This pocket-sized box wants to fix that Digital Trends 

You don’t need golden ears to hear the unmistakable improvement Aftermaster made TechHive

Digital box promises easy audio enhancement that won't break the bank Gizmag


Aftermaster Pro will fix your TV audio, and virtually any other audio device.

At Aftermaster Audio Labs we are proud to introduce a completely new category of consumer electronic product—the Aftermaster Pro, the world's first Personal Re-Mastering Device.

Aftermaster Pro transforms the audio of your TV, smartphone, headphones, laptop, tablet, gaming unit, or virtually any audio-enabled device to sound clearer, fuller, deeper, and more exciting.

Our team of music and audio tech veterans have the largest discography of hit records of any audio tech company in the world. We know what sounds right. 


Aftermaster Pro will fix your TV audio, and also looks good next to it.

 



Date night at home will be as good as a night at the movies.

Now you can stream on your laptop without sacrificing sound quality.

We wanted to find a solution to the expensive home entertainment systems that made broad claims about sound quality, but ultimately offered little substance when it came to solving dialogue problems. 

Aftermaster Pro hooks up easily between your television and video source via HDMI cables. No more need to continually adjust the volume of your favorite show to hear what people are saying. 

It also has a built-in rechargeable battery so it can be used on-the-go with smartphones, tablets, and laptops, and can be easily linked in between your device and headphones or speaker through standard 3.5mm audio cables. 


Aftermaster Pro's portable. You can hear great sound wherever you go.

Get the most sound out of your headphones and MP3s.

We have gathered an elite group of music and audio tech veterans who together have the largest discography of hit records of any audio technology company in the world. We know what sounds right. 

Traditional audio enhancers typically add high-end exciters, specializers, and wideners to make sound appear to be enhanced. But something is inevitably lost somewhere in the frequency range by changing balances and noticeably compromising sonic integrity.

Aftermaster Pro’s patented technology is the only process that carefully preserves the original intention of an audio recording, while making everything sound dramatically better throughout the entire frequency range, without compromise. 


Aftermaster’s proprietary algorithms improve sound levels and improve overall fidelity (Original: Blue, Aftermaster: Red). 

Our proprietary and state-of-the-art Adaptive Intuitive Response mechanisms and complex algorithms provide a never-before-heard listening experience. 

We have co-developed a Digital Signal Processing (DSP) chip with ON Semiconductor, a multi-national semiconductor designer and manufacturer. Our Belasigna 300 AM chip is one of the world's smallest, high power DSP chips, containing a special algorithm developed by our team of engineers. 



Our sound technology process can actually identify the dialogue in a finished movie or show, and optimize vocals for your audio devices, making everything louder and clearer without raising the background audio.

In January 2016, our pride for this product became even stronger when the Aftermaster Pro won an award for Envisioneering Innovation and Design at CES in Las Vegas.


 

You only watch the best shows on TV. Shouldn't you be getting the best sound quality?


 Saturday night binge watching sessions will sound better than ever.

Your favorite sports will sound as clear as being courtside or on the field.

Whether you’re into music, TV, video games, online content, or all of the above, Aftermaster Pro will make your favorite content sound better.

I am a supporter and got a perk for AfterMaster TV during the last crowdfunding campaign. Now you announced the PRO Version. Does that mean I will be upgraded automatically? Or will I have to get a new perk with the PRO Version?

If you ordered the original "Limited Edition," your new unit will have all the features of the new Pro except the extra HDMI port.

If you ordered the "AfterMaster TV box," your new unit will have all the features of the new Pro except the extra HDMI port and audio plugs. You can upgrade to the Aftermaster Pro by emailing jlombardo@aftermaster.com!

Is there 3.5mm audio out for music on headphones or for simple 2.0 channel output to stereo speakers?

Yes.

Will Aftermaster work if I plug it in via HDMI from my TV to sound bar?

That's actually one of the best set-ups.

Can Aftermaster Pro be used while plugged into a power source and not solely from battery power?

Yes. Both the HDMI and 3.5mm ports can be powered via the power adapter that comes with your unit.

Since Aftermaster Pro comes with two HDMI inputs, will there be a selector switch or remote control? Or does the output HDMI just throw out everything combined?

The HDMI "out" on the Aftermaster Pro has a dominant port, which is port "A". If there are two sources feeding in at the same time it will play what is flowing through port "A". You will need to turn off one of the devices to control what plays on your TV if you have two devices plugged into Aftermaster Pro.

Does Aftermaster Pro work for tablets as well?

Yes. It has an internal rechargeable battery and both HDMI and 3.5mm connectors can be used with a laptop.

I have 6.1 surround through my amplifier. Will Aftermaster Pro work with this set up, or is it meant to just improve the basic TV speaker/sound bar experience?

Aftermaster works with all discrete channel systems including 6.1.

Can I use my Chromecast stick with Aftermaster Pro, together with a PC, Tablet or Smartphone?

You can plug your Chromecast stick directly into the Aftermaster Pro box and then connect to your TV.

My TV set is directly connected to the antenna socket via a coax cable and has built-in decoder. Will Aftermaster Pro work for me?

Yes. It will work fine but you will need to buy an adaptor for coaxial to HDMI (Amazon.com, etc.), as we do not have a coaxial input.

Why don't you support optical in and out connection?

Our base Aftermaster Pro system is for A/V use, and primarily designed to fix audio problems in TV audio. Optical connections are for audio only and we haven't seen a reason to provide a separate audio in/out optical connection when we can provide our quality through HDMI.

How would I connect Aftermaster Pro if I already have a sound bar system?

It can go between your cable, satellite box etc. and your TV or between your TV and your sound bar via HDMI.

Will Aftermaster Pro make my audio too loud?

Nope! With Aftermaster Pro, you will hear small details that you've never heard before and enjoy the full and exciting effect of an explosion without the annoyance of having it get too loud.

Does the dual HDMI input allow users to choose between input sources? I have a HDMI (multi-input) to HDMI (output) adapter. Could I just replace it with Aftermaster Pro since there's Dual HDMI input already?

The second input is for users who have multiple HDMI sources going to their television. So, yes, you can replace your current HDMI switch with the Aftermaster Pro unit! The unit will automatically display the source that is powered on.

Can you turn Aftermaster Pro on and off?

We have no remote off and on feature. The "ON' switch on our units is a "hard" on button, meaning our system will come back on automatically if power is interrupted.

Will all my sources be able to benefit from Aftermaster Pro's enhancements?

Beyond two sources, you'll likely need to get a high quality HDMI splitter to accommodate multiple input sources. That should solve all the issues and ensure that you get the audio you expect out of Aftermaster Pro for all your programming.

When using a TV app (such as Netflix) that is ran on the TV OS itself, is there a typical configuration to have the TV audio looped in and out of the Aftermaster Pro when using an inbox TV application?

If you have a smart TV and have it hooked up to a sound bar, receiver etc. then you can add Aftermaster Pro into the audio chain.

When using the Aftermaster Pro specifically for gaming reasons is there any video delay that the box would cause from the audio processing?

There is zero latency (delay).  Aftermaster Pro will enhance audio from your gaming console without causing any unwanted effects.  In fact, it will make the gaming experience much more exciting and dynamic due to the enhanced audio.

How long does Aftermaster Pro hold a single charge?

The battery lasts about 8 hours.
