Auracast™ is a new Bluetooth® capability, also known as Bluetooth Low Energy Audio, that enables an audio transmitter to broadcast to an unlimited number of receivers. Selecting a broadcast is much like choosing a Wi-Fi network, the user simply selects the desired Auracast™ channel to hear that broadcast. Auracast Broadcast will allow users to listen to audio from TV's in a pub, receive announcements from paging systems, and hear the audio at the theatre or cinema, as well a wide variety of uses in many other environments.

It delivers high-quality, low-latency audio and features intuitive side-mounted power and volume controls. The RX1 includes two 3.5mm output jacks for connecting earbuds, headphones or neck loops for telecoil-equipped hearing aids, allowing two users to share one receiver. A front-panel OLED screen displays channel name, battery status, and charging indicators, with easy buttons for channel selection.

10 Zone Public Address System
We've recently completed a rack build for one of our overseas AV integration customers, which allows for 10 zones of public address paging, background music and digital message playback.
The heart of the system uses the TOA VM2240 5-zone mixer amplifiers which are configured in Master/Sub mode to extend the system to 10 zones. Background music is provided by the LD Systems RSMP media player, which provides FM/DAB tuner, USB playback, internet radio and

|
|
|
|
Bluetooth. A single TOA A-3548D mixer amplifier routes the background music through the VM-2240 amplifiers to allow for clear uninterrupted music playback whilst a paging announcement is made into another zones in the system.
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
The Microplayer digital message player from Waves System also provides a global alert message which can be activated from the control system of the building.
Paging announcements can be made to any zone from the TOA RM-200MS 10 zone paging station.
