Re: OT: Audio for Flex/Zoom Rooms
Audio Technica has a decent Dante ceiling microphone as well. Great price too. If the budget is there though, go with Shure.?
For DSP, QSC or Biamp is the way. If you're using multiple cameras, then use QSC because you can use their cameras as well.? Related to cameras, if you want to do some speaker tracking, the Sennheiser microphone is great for that.? For handhelds and lavs, again Shure, Audio-Technica, and Sennheiser are your go-tos with a DSP of some sort. Personally I like the Shure SLXD range for price to performance. ULXD and QLXD are great as well. If you need antenna distribution check out the RF Venue D-Arc.? |
Re: What are Alexa Scenes in the Voice Control Room Lights module?
You can use them to trigger any lighting scene you have programmed, or anything really. Its just really an invocation phrase you can put whatever logic you want behind. Lighting scenes can also be done via Alexa Routines which allows you to creat them in the Alexa side and not modify the program. We always have a handful of lighting scenes for every room in our programs anyway so I just tie those to the Alexa Scenes.?

Re: OT: Audio for Flex/Zoom Rooms
For ceiling mics, you will really struggle to beat the Shure MXA series.? They are Dante so will work with QSC or even the biamp. The sennheiser Team Connect 2 ceiling mics are pretty good too.? I actually did a conference space the other day using 8 TC2 ceiling mics and we managed to be able to give the client some mix minus voice lift using the ceiling mics which was quite impressive.
As far as table mics go, there is plenty of options out there but to be honest, we don't do many these days.? Everyone seems to want ceiling mics.? Particularly doing flexible spaces, table mics arent a great solution.?? If going down the Biamp Tesira path, they do their own ceiling mics (both ceiling mounted and pendant style) and they also do a table mic version.? Google Biamp Parle.? They sound pretty good too.? They aren't Dante though, they are AVB which can have its own challenges. |
What are Alexa Scenes in the Voice Control Room Lights module?
Can anybody tell me what the Scenes (LightScenes) are in the Voice Control Room Lights module? I it seems like it's an old feature of Alexa, and since I've never used it until now, it seems like I can't, if I haven't created scenes before now, right??

Re: Apple TV Select Button
Good to know, AVmaster and Alex.
I don't think that I want to go down this route with client systems, though, as it seems like it could create potential confusion for servicing down the road. Of course, Apple seems to already be creating confusion on their own, so I guess I'm screwed anyway!...Haha |

Re: Apple TV Select Button
I realized when I went to test this weekend that I learned an old Toshiba DVD player driver (because it's a rare code set) to all my Apple TV's so I did not have the reported issue at all after updating.? The only issue I've ever experienced with learning another IR code set is that the transports get a little wonky on some apps but I can't say that I've noticed it on anything recently.

Re: OT: Audio for Flex/Zoom Rooms
Shure P300 is only really good for very small rooms.? It's more of a usb sound card with a little bit of processing rather than a full blown Dsp.? Good for a small conference space but I wouldn't attempt any kind of room linking with it.? Way too limited.?
QSC is by far and away the best and most capable dsp on the market.? Be it a Core110f or a Core 8 Flex.? Depending on the amount of IO you need. Aside from QSC, you could also look at the Biamp Tesira range.? Again, depending on the amount of IO you need (analogue IO I mean) you can either look at the Tesira Dan range or even the X400/800 range.? Side note with the Tesira...? The larger Tesira Forte models (older range) have much older usb hardware and as such, don't support some of the USB control comms with the UC device.? Meaning, you won't have programming access to usb mute, volume, on/off hook functions.? The newer X400/800 models do support these features.? If you need that.? It's quite handy to show mic mute states on ceiling mics or touchpanels when someone presses.mute in Teams or Zoom etc.?? My strongest advice, is to stay as far away as possible from the Clearone Converge 2 range.? You can pick them up at reasonable prices but there is a good reason for that.? Nobody wants them.? I've made it pretty clear to my superiors that the next one I see on a job will be taken home with me and thrown in to my fire pit at home.? WORST DSP on the market.? Even worse than BSS Soundweb Bottom line,? QSC - run towards.? Clearone - run far far far away.? . |
