Audio Systems
Our CAT5 digital HDMI system automatically forwards audio to each TV but for many establishments zoned audio is preferred (Bar, Dining, Restrooms, Patio, etc). Using our SB-Touch controller and an additional audio switch or multi-zone system, audio control is as easy as the Video control. With our "Audio to Zone" feature, all you have to do is pick a TV and touch one button to make your preferred zone play that TV's audio. In addition, there is a comprehensive audio selection and volume screen so you can tailor the exact settings needed for every zone in your business. Tone control (If available on the equipment) is kept safely away in the password protected setup section of the Touch panel.
Our SB-Touch controls most popular audio systems such as DBX & Yamaha for zoned audio; we also can supply Autopatch or Crestron audio switching with Tone & Volume control.
Our most popular audio add-on allows one digital source (any of the HDMI sources are selectable) and 3 analog sources over 4 zones (bar,dining, entrance, etc). Each zone is controlled via the Touch panel for Volume and source selection. The 1/digital 3/analog - 4/zone system only requires raw amplifiers as tone and volume are included. Additional units can be stacked to add multiples of four zones to the establishment. Should you need more source flexibility or zones then an Autopatch 8x8 or 18x18 DSP audio switch can be utilized.
Audio 'Ducking' is available (where you push to talk on the mic and (pre-selected) zones automatically go to that mic, then back to the original program when you let go of the button). IE: for announcements or "your table is ready" usage.
