Four Zone Casino

Audio System Requirements

  1. 4 zones, each with stereo BGM (background music) and wall panel controllers for source selection/volume control.
  2. Support for mobile device control of source selection/volume control in each zone.
  3. 2 remotely located page microphones connected to a single DSP processor via a Dante™ network.
  4. Page zone selection using a 4-button wall panel at each page station location.
  5. Programmable automatic page over music “ducking” of BGM in all zones.
  6. Ambient noise controlled automatic music volume adjustment in each zone.
  7. Secure super-user Windows® control screen located in the managers office.
  8. Audio system MUTE ALL function triggered from a fire/emergency alarm system.
  9. Comprehensive loudspeaker management in all four zones to include parametric EQ, high and low pass 48dB/octave filter, comp/liming, delay and mute.

SymVue

  • SymVue is a network-based application for Windows PCs, touchscreen PCs, and tablets.
  • Control screens are authored in Composer from which SymVue runtime versions are generated.
  • Important control parameters from one or multiple DSPs are easily consolidated onto user friendly screens.
  • Multiple and concurrent instances of SymVue may be deployed across a control network.
  • Parameter changes are always in sync between Composer, ARC Wall Panels, ARC-WEB, third-party controllers, and SymVue.

ARC-WEB

  • Use a web browser running on a mobile and desktop device to control audio via embedded web servers running on Edge, Radius, Prism and Jupiter DSPs.
  • End users control volume, mute, source selection and other parameters of their sound systems using favorite browsers.
  • Flexible and secure. Up to four users can be assigned a different ARC-WEB with unique privileges and security.
  • Installation is simple. Just connect the DSP to a low cost wireless access point.
  • Using a mobile device, management can roam between zones to adjust source and volume, matching the functionality of the local ARC wall panels in each zone.
