Nightclubs are highly demanding environments, utilizing a lot of different equipment at near maximum output for hours on end. There are some aspects of nightclub systems that make them unique: • Combination of stereo and mono zones of audio • Ability to control zones from different locations throughout the venue • Separate operators for the audio, video, and lighting systems • Versatile design and wide range of products to allow for different modes of operation • Complex distributed audio, lighting, and video systems The lighting system is a major element in a nightclub. Lighting and atmospheric effects need to be controlled There are several series from Martin® to achieve many very accurately and efficiently. Martin has several DMX different looks. The Martin RUSH Series has some smaller controller options. M-Series Controllers have many moving head fixtures, beam lights, and effect lights to hardware options depending on the amount of physical complement nightclubs of all sizes and budget.

  • The Role of the Network in Flipped Classrooms
    WHITE PAPER PLUGGED IN: THE ROLE OF THE NETWORK IN FLIPPED CLASSROOMS How Networked AVTechnology Can Make Active Learning More Flexible EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The flipped classroom gets its name from the way it “flips” traditional lecturing in class from passively listening and taking notes to watching lecture videos online and coming to class to collaborate and study in groups. The education in a flipped classroom focuses on “active learning,” a group-based, interactive learning style that is centered on problem solving and learning by doing. To facilitate this, desks in the classroom are shifting from traditional static rows to movable workstation clusters called “pods,” where student groups work together on problems. Much of this collaborative learning involves students and teachers bringing in a variety of devices and sharing content as well as student and teacher presentations as part of the daily assignments. Technology in flipped classrooms provides this capability, ensuring flexible, scalable methods of distributing audio and video between the various student pods as well as the instructor’s station and the main display(s) in the room. By using networked AV that distributes, controls and manages audio and video over a standard IT network, educational institutions can provide the advanced collaborative capabilities these dynamic spaces need, while ensuring the spaces are able to shift and change easily as the needs of the classroom change.

  • The Benefit of Using Speaker Tunings for Commercial Loudspeakers Executive Summary
    TECHNICAL WHITE PAPER THE BENEFIT OF USING SPEAKER TUNINGS FOR COMMERCIAL LOUDSPEAKERS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The use of speaker tunings is commonplace in high-performance environments that require line arrays and multi-transducer speakers. However, even in commercial applications with full-range speakers, it’s important to have proper speaker tunings to manage the voltage and frequencies going to the transducers in order to maximize quality and efficiency while preventing damage. In this white paper, learn some of the technical considerations behind why this damage can occur and discover how speaker tunings address these issues. CONTENTS A PRIMER: AMPS AND SPEAKERS WORKING TOGETHER …………………………………………………………… 3 BAND-PASS FILTERS: WHEN NOT ALL FREQUENCIES ARE CREATED EQUAL …………………………… 3 CONSTANT VOLTAGE SPEAKER TUNINGS: BETTER SOUND THROUGH FILTERS ………………………… 5 LIMITERS IN AMPLIFIERS: CONTROLLING VOLTAGE, NOT JUST VOLUME …………………………………… 8 CONCLUSION ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… 9 THE BENEFIT OF USING SPEAKER TUNINGS FOR COMMERCIAL LOUDSPEAKERS | TECHNICAL WHITE PAPER | © 2017 HARMAN | v.10.2017 Page 2 of 10 A PRIMER: AMPS AND SPEAKERS WORKING BETTER TOGETHER Any audio engineer will tell you that you never buy an amplifier or speaker in isolation. You select the amplifier based upon the speakers you’re driving, and you select the speakers depending on your sound Ensuring the application. The space you’re trying to fill with sound and the application you’re addressing will ultimately audio sent to determine the sound pressure level (SPL) you need to get out of the system. SPL, measured in decibels, the speaker denotes how loud the sound is within the space. Depending on your SPL requirement, you select your is optimized speaker(s) and that determines how powerful and how many amplifiers you will need.
