Background music (BGM), live paging and Public Address for Hotel Avani
The Requirement
The upgrade, designed in partnership with audiovisual integrator Al Yousuf Computer & Telecommunications (L.L.C.). needed to harness the latest streaming and audio technologies to deliver a system capable of meeting these demands.The brief also specified simple volume control and channel selection across the designated zones, controlled both centrally and locally via local IP-connected wall-mount controllers. It was also essential that the audio system could be used for Public Address (PA) purposes.
The Solution
Behind the scenes are two distributed racks, both equipped with VIPEDIA12-PRO’s, connected utilizing the building’s existing LAN infrastructure. These Dante-enabled audio controllers offer low latency, high-quality BGM and simple integration with the 3rd party audio server, streaming on-demand playlists over Dante IP. Additionally, a cost-effective mix of V2000 and V400 amplifiers efficiently drive the hundreds of 100V loudspeakers installed across the site.
A VIPA-WS Touch-screen controller was deployed centrally to provide the overarching control and live paging, with the benefit of emergency monitoring and message scheduling. This was supplemented by local control provided by the WMC-01 IP-enabled wall-mount controller, enabling staff to select audio sources and further adjust levels via an intuitive interface.
The Result
Zenitel, with the help of Al Yousuf Computer & Telecommunications (L.L.C.), successfully delivered a solution that met all requirements. Hotel Avani now possesses a state-of-the-art AV-system where the overall quality and distribution of sound is excellent. Dante compatibility makes the system flexible providing the system maintainers with a powerful yet recognizable interface, which in time could be easily ramped to meet the growing demands of the hotel. Simple control touchpoints ensure that the system can be easily adjusted, changing the atmosphere according to the time of day. Furthermore, the client benefits from the added redundancy, reliability and self-diagnostics usually associated with high-end emergency audio systems, simplifying future maintenance and lowering whole life costs.
