More and more, hospitality and leisure sector come up with innovative and interesting proposals with the aim to attract customers. Audio plays an important role in the creation of welcoming atmospheres. WORK Pro offers to the professionals of the sector a wide range of solutions for the control of audio devices that can adapt to different budgets and requirements of the installation; from a generic audio system to a system which allows to control each area independently. Therefore, the possibilities to create the atmosphere of the place are numerous.

We propose three different solutions for the design of audio systems for a pub/restaurant/lounge with 2/3 different areas that have to be controlled individually. This proposals are far away from conventional systems and are an alternative which adds a distinctive and attractive touch in its conception as well as in its control.

1. SLA amplifier + NEO loudspeakers + Multiplayer: in the first example, each one of the three areas has its independent audio and it is possible to control the master channel individually. In order to get that, it would be necessary to install a Multiplayer 3R (audio source), a SLA 300 as signal amplifier, and NEO loudspeakers. To control this installation it is possible to use a wall-mounted analog controller (potentiometer) that allows to adjust the volume locally and independently, a conventional DMX controller or a remote device, such a smartphone or tablet, using LM 5 and OSC protocol.

2. DCA 1 + NEO loudspeakers + Multiplayer: in this second example we have three Multiplayer 4 (audio source) and an additional microphone which can be sent to any of the two areas. DCA 1 is an amplifier mixer with RS232 and RS485 control. It is possible to control the volume and to select the audio input source through a simple DMX console with 6 channels, or, as in the previous example, through a LM 5 and OSC protocol using a smartphone or tablet.

3. Digiline 8 + IC Pro Series of loudspeakers + Multiplayer: Digiline 8 is an audio matrix with 8 amplified inputs and 8 amplified outputs. We can reroute, for instance, three Multiplayer 3R/4 (audio source) to any of the outputs. Besides, the software which is added to Digiline 8 allows to equalize each space independently. To control it, user can choose wall-mounted controllers: WNC 1 and WGC 1. In this last case, it is possible to store control commands (zonal mutes, volume increases, etc.). On the other hand, as in the previous examples, this system can be controlled through OSC protocol using a smartphone or tablet.
