    Is anyone interfacing Unity Intercom to Clear-Com 2W?

    EW clear com LOL (im a die hard RTS guy). I have Unity tied into all kind of things. Dante, RTS 2W, ADAM, Zeus, ODIN, Glensound, Riedel...You don't necessarily need Dante to do this. Any analog line level IO (Scarlett, ARX, MOTU, etc) on your Unity server can be used with something like the CC...

    Video Switchers can mess up your wireless....

    i find not so much the ATEM, but SDI feeds (esp on cheap coax) can emanate all kind of bad RF interference. attached is a look at remote fiber rack I ran into years ago, containing among other things Senn G3 and a SDI over fiber box from Studio Technologies. Cheap coax for the video, routed all...

    Intercom System on a budget

    By phone handset I meant an android/iphone. The ComPack is what we used. Found one on eBay for $100. Provides an easy way to connect TRRS device to a 2W PL system. Also works with a regular telephone line. Having a remote user via telephone, or via app like Discord is a great feature in these...

    Intercom over IP?

    Another Dante option comes from Glensound.co.uk They have several rack mount and desktop variants as well as belt packs.an advantage of keeping coms Dante based is being able to share sound board resources. this is especially useful if you have an IFB system. but program sound to cameras, or...

    ATEM Mini Audio?

    nope, no audio settings in the Hyperdeck mini, well other than to select the number of channels recorded. SDI embedded audio only carries what is fed into it, you can't change what's in the SDI stream without going through a processing device. And BTW, HDMI audio can only carry 8 channels of...

    ATEM Mini Audio?

    Launch the ATEM control software. On the main screen there is a little gear icon lower left. Clicking it brings up switcher settings. On the Audio tab you will find settings to make the Mic inputs Mic or Line level, and apply plug-in-power if needed for your mic. Both inputs are stereo...

    Telex BP-1000/1002 volume differences

    Sidetone only affects the local headset mix and has no effect on the audio going out to the rest of the Partyline. There isn't a mic gain in these belt packs per se...but there are jumper/switch settings for dynamic mic or electret mic elements. There's about a 20db gain difference between the...

    Cell phone for intercom

    another method comes to mind...using the JKaudio BlueSet. This device plugs into the headset port of your 2W beltpack and creates a bluetooth connection so you can use a BT headset. The BlueSet can also be switched into a mode that connects BT to a phone instead of a headset. In this case use...

    Cell phone for intercom

    2 ways. both involve running Discord on a PC to connect to the cloud audio.1-using Dante Virtual Soundcard (DVS) on PC, pipe Discord to/from Dante network and into a 4W port on our RTS Zeus matrix. This port is conferenced into a partyline for as many other users to join as needed. Beltpacks...

    Cell phone for intercom

    I'll second Discord. We use it frequently and even have 2 channels tied into wired intercom. Works very well for intercom, as it's full duplex ie many can talk simultaneously and everyone on channel hears all conversation. Zello works well too, but being a PTT app it's more akin to a walkie...

    Understanding Intercom

    do you really need to use fiber? the db9 analog connection can be at least 1000ft long, maybe longer. in any event, the evertz fiber cards can be used with several types of systems so they need to be set up to use rs-485 data and 4W matrix audio to work with the ADAM. you also need to be sure...

    How to use laptop for sound

    My favorite USB interface for this is the ARX USB 3. Excellent quality and both input and output capability. Transformer isolated in both directions as well for good sound and protection from things like phantom voltage and ground loops. About $350...

    Clear Com TW series

    The RS-603 and 623 are 2ch and use 3pin XLR cable between belt packs. I'm a much bigger fan of RTS though, and have many BP325 belt packs. We have purchased many of them used at significant savings, they are pretty bulletproof and not much to go wrong. Either way you also need a power supply...

    Weird Frequency Coordination Question

    I have found other gear like ethernet switches, switching power supplies, and SDI video devices near my G3 receivers or antenna cables will seriously increase the RF noise floor and produce scans similar to what you have been seeing. Relocating things in my rack, and moving to paddle antennas...

    Wireless Sennheiser Evolution Wireless G4 Announced

    it looks like the only Dante is via an external box. Dissapointing...we will already network the units for WSM why not build the Dante in to take advantage of this connection?????Robb@Sennheiser will get his ear bent about this at NAB... :-(
