Latin America. Kramer demonstrated its fully flexible approach to audio management, with a new range of Kramer XSPerience products offering total freedom of connectivity as well as all transfer technologies covered.
Yuval Kramer, Kramer's Director of Audio, revealed the passion for seamless connectivity that drives the company's XSPerience spirit: "We know that AV and IT integrators face a lot of challenges on a daily basis and we never know what tomorrow brings, so we created a family of products that can cover almost any type of installation. Flexible ports allow you to have 12 inputs and 8 outputs for an installation, and with the same product they also offer a 16x4, 6x14 or 10x10 installation. The integrator can stock up on a single product and doesn't need to worry about 6 different ones. Consultants can design dozens of different systems with the same DSP software and use it everywhere, while minimizing extra boxes and connectivity issues without trying to pursue the latest FW version of 8 different products."
With new solutions for meeting rooms, conference rooms of any size, or large corporate connectivity, Kramer brings simplicity and ease to installers, end users, and IT managers alike.
Listen to everything in meeting spaces
Designed specifically for meeting spaces, Kramer's DSP-62-AEC is a new, easy-to-install and easy-to-use mini-audio DSP solution.
Meeting the needs and demands of organizations that continue to invest in meeting spaces to complement their larger meeting rooms, the new DSP-62-AEC meets all quality and reliability requirements to ensure the meeting space experience is maximized, keeping participants connected and conversation flowing in more compact areas.
All major connectivity options are catered for, with two-way audio via USB, dual HDMI inputs, and an HDMI output with embedding removal to manage any type of presentation.
DSP-62-AEC can support 4 analog microphones and an additional stereo audio input. In addition, DSP-62-AEC can route and mix any audio source, with a powerful DSP engine. Automatic switching HDMI, Usb Class Complaint, AEC : everything you need for any type of meeting space.
A box to govern them all
Kramer's latest AFM-20DSP audio array does not limit integrators with fixed and rigid ports, but offers full compliance with what the system requires, as Kramer explains: "The most common sizeD DSP on the market is 12X8, one seen and used in most professional audio applications. Kramer wanted to disrupt this standard to offer flexible inputs and outputs, which means scaling up its audio management is now the easiest process."
The benefits of the flexibility Kramer provides to professional AV audio professionals cannot be overstated. If a user has a 12x8 configuration and wants more inputs, no problem. With the integrated Kramer Flex I/O technology, users can configure the device for 14 inputs and 6 outputs from the built-in web-based user interface and be up and running almost instantly.
Identifying and developing products to better meet customer needs is at the core of Kramer's product development program. Kramer continues, "We understand the AV challenges we all face every day. We know that every room you design has a video system. So why should audio disintegrate from the presentation system and then enter the DSP by taking expensive ports? We built an HDMI embedder and disconnector in the box. So, in addition to its analog ports, it has HDMI connectivity that can be mixed, routed, and distributed to any of the device's ports. Analog, HDMI, S/PDIF, Dante, built-in power amplifier... whatever the user requires."
Kramer Flex's built-in I/O technology allows users to configure the analog port as they wish, using the default 12 x 8 I/O array settings or by selecting one of the many other preset I/O settings. Users can route any input to any output, even between different formats (e.g. routing an analog input to an S/PDIF output). Control the volume and DSP per port, and route any of the ports to the power amplifier.
