In this latest newsletter, Bob Snyder wants you to consider the sound of all human knowledge. After all, Wikimedia is looking for a “sound logo” to play everywhere a visual logo isn’t an option. So, if you’re into audio, this could be your chance! Find out more about how to enter the contest here. You only have until Oct. 10!

For our other columns this time, Scott Tiner attended one of Crestron’s “town hall” sessions and wrote about what he learned — including information about the supply chain shortages. Also, Mark Coxon writes about three things that are often overlooked in design considerations. Enjoy!

COLUMNS

 

+ Calling All Audio Pros: What’s THE Sound of All Human Knowledge? [Bob Snyder]

Wikimedia wants a sound logo that will identify content from its projects (like Wikipedia) whenever visual logos aren’t an option. Wikimedia’s new sound logo will help users all over the world know when they are listening to credible, open content sourced from Wikimedia projects. For example, when their virtual voice assistants answer queries.

 

+ An Analysis of Crestron’s ‘Town Hall’ Sessions: Addressing the Supply Chain [Scott Tiner]

It is no secret to the AV world that most companies have dealt with incredible supply chain issues in the past 18 months. We hear horror stories of companies changing ship dates from weeks, to months to even years. It is not uncommon today to hear of 18 -24-month ship dates. For some reason, much of the vitriol about this has been aimed at Crestron.

+ 3 Often Overlooked AV Design Considerations [Mark Coxon]

In the current market, we see a lot of products being kitted together and marketed based on the size of the room. A small room kit, a medium room kit, a large room kit, etc. In other cases, service providers design something once in a way that they can sell it multiple times without modifications, but not without compromise.
