January 28, 2014 ISE Special: A Videocast with Paul Ingebrigtsen of Williams Sound I caught up with Paul Ingebrigtsen, the CEO and President of Williams Sound, and he actually demo’d the new Digi-Loop for me as well as showed me the brand-new Digi-Wave-Dock that basically allows the Williams Sound assistive listening and tour-guide portable wireless systems of the DLT 100 (digital transceiver) and DLR 60 (digital receiver) to work in fixed installs too. The Digi-Dock will actually make its official debut at ISE. The Digi·Loop induction loop amplifier is definitely state-of-the-art – the first of its kind to maximize modern amplifier technology.  DSP audio processing offers flexible, powerful software control of mixing, equalization, compression, loop phase shift and more.  Powerful Class D, pulse-width amplifiers maximize efficiency, and reduce size and weight.  And network control capability provides seamless, remote system set-up, operation and monitoring via laptop, tablet or other portable device.If you’re in the assistive listening market, you should watch this!

January 27, 2014 ISE Special: Sound Control Technologies to Show RC3x to Remotely Locate VTC Cameras Up to 100 Meters Did you know that it’s possible to remotely locate videoconferencing cameras — including video, control, audio and VISCA Loop — up to 100 meters from the VTC codec? Well, thanks to Sound Control Technologies and its new RemoteCam 3x, you can put a VTC camera anywhere you want one. Using standard low resistance UTP wire, the RC3x can send camera video, power, control and IR (both directions) to and from a codec so that room design isn’t determined by where the camera “must” be placed. Gary talks to Sound Control founder and president David Neaderland about the company’s RC3x as well as all that they’ll have on their stand (12-A84) at the Integrated Systems Europe show in Amsterdam.
