At Xiris, we strive to be a world leader in developing sensors and inspection systems for welding processes. Our team of multidisciplinary experts have extended our [weld camera](https://www.xiris.com/weld-monitoring-cameras/) product line with the addition of[ audio capture and monitoring capability](https://info.xiris.com/weldmic). We are committed to continuously improving our products to meet the needs of our customers, and audio monitoring is something our clients have been asking for. [Adding audio capture and playback to Xiris’ weld cameras with the Xiris WeldMic™ microphone, introduces a new dimension to welding quality control.](https://info.xiris.com/weldmic-webinar-download) Now fabricators can use two sensory inputs – sight AND sound – to help them determine if the welding process is functioning correctly or needs fine tuning to provide the best weld process possible. This enhancement gives operators another tool to assess, monitor and improve the consistency and effectiveness of their welding processes. ![Xiris Launches Audio monitoring for welding cameras](https://blog.xiris.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blogs/Blog%202019/Audio%20(1)%20sound%20wave%20pic.jpg?width=1238&name=Audio%20(1)%20sound%20wave%20pic.jpg)**An Audio Waveform Picture from the Xiris WeldMic™** A study in the January 2017 edition of the *Journal of Intelligent Manufacturing* found that multisensory evaluation of seam welds was 97% more accurate [recognizing defects](https://blog.xiris.com/welding-defects-guide). Various academic and anecdotal studies confirm that sound is key to real-time monitoring of welding quality and process control for intelligent manufacturing. Welders draw on years of experience to recognize what quality welds sound like. Each type of welding can generate a unique sound signature when it is “in tune” and when it is “out of tune”. In upcoming blogs, we will be talking about the different types of welding and what to listen for. We will also share more details about the Xiris audio recording and playback option and how you can add it to your operations. Subscribe to our blog so you don't miss out! --- **Better Images.
