Active sound design
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 BMW X5, 2012 BMW X5, and 2011 BMW X5. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The vehicle-specific and engine-specific algorithms for generating sound patterns are stored in the Active Sound Design (ASD). The integrated digital signal processor generates an analogue signal. The generated signal is combined with the audio signal.
The Active Sound Design (ASD) functions as a sound generator. The Active Sound Design (ASD) varies this additional signal according to the relevant driving condition and pedal sensor position. The modified and amplified audio signals are transmitted to the relevant speakers.
