Product Highlights
Network-based AV Management. Control
Server is a flexible and extensible approach to the control of Symetrix
Composer-enabled DSPs and select third-party AV components. The centralized
server-based technology enables comprehensive design, deployment, and maintenance
of large and sophisticated systems employing numerous control endpoints
supporting multiple simultaneous users.
Wired and wireless network interfaces. Control Server’s wired Gigabit Ethernet port enables control via
dedicated AV or general purpose facility networks, as well as direct
communication with networked DSP hardware. Operating in wireless mode, Control
Server functions as an access point providing mobile device connectivity – in
essence providing a secure “AV control island”.
Straight-forward Setup and Deployment. Control Server is designed into a system using Composer – Symetrix’
award winning open-architecture application. Composer is used to locate and
program Control Server and other Symetrix DSPs and accessories. Control
Server’s browser-based administration is then used to manage app licenses,
users, and user access.
SymVue for Control Server. Award
winning SymVue running on Control Server hardware makes possible robust
deployment and maintenance of large scale systems by supporting numerous and
diverse browser-based endpoints under the control of multiple simultaneous
users.
Mixer for Control Server. Mixer supports up to 32 virtual channel strips, each with an assignable
fader and a mute button, and dynamic screen-sizing and orientation. Mixer can
be used on virtually any mobile device. Users can group and hide channels,
assign custom labels and colors, and adjust fader resolution and travel.
Multi-touch functionality makes possible simultaneous adjustment of multiple
faders, just like a physical mixer. A Mixer instance can be saved to a smart
device’s home page for instant access, appearing as a native app. Multiple
users can operate the same instance, and user access control can be provided
via username and password security for each user.
Benefits
of the “App” Model.
Because apps are
virtual, they serve to reduce overall system costs by cutting down on hardware
requirements. Unlike Control Server apps, functionally equivalent hardware
products are expensive and prone to wear, tear, and failure.
Unlimited Programming Flexibility. Control Server is programmed using Composer – Symetrix’ award
winning open-architecture programming application. Unique to Composer is
the ability to natively configure Symetrix and select third party Dante hardware
– thereby eliminating the confusion of multiple or redundant software
applications.
