AREAC Midlands Limited specialise in the design, manufacture and installation of award winning quality custom built sound, vision and induction loop systems. We have installed hundreds of sound and induction loop systems in churches, schools, hotels, factories and medical centres over the past 40 years, each system designed to meet the acoustics requirements of the building and the needs of the users. As each sound, vision and induction loop system is custom designed and built, the system is easy to use without compromising on the flexibility of the system. We specialise in: Church sound systems and induction loop systems: Custom designed and built sound systems and induction loop systems for all size of churches from Cathedrals to a small country church and all sizes in between. Many of our church sound systems have been installed in Grade 1 and Grade 2 listed buildings as well as new churches. Our largest church sound system is at Worcester Cathedral. Remote control of sound systems: Church sound systems and hotel sound systems where the amplifier is housed out of sight with the sound system controlled using a wired remote in the main section of the church or function suite. Such an arrangement increases the security of the system. Induction loop systems: Induction loop systems conforming BS EN 60118-4 for the hard of hearing enabling the building to meet the requirements of the Disability Discrimination Act. Induction loop systems for reception desks at doctors surgeries, hotels and other public buildings. Infra-red systems: Infra-red systems for the hard of hearing. Infra-red systems allow people with hearing problems to hear a meeting or event where confidentiality issues mean that an induction loop system can not be fitted. Paging and patient call systems: Paging systems for factories and schools. Patient call systems allowing a doctor or nurse to call the next patient. The patient call system can be incorporated as part of a background music system and/or Induction loop system. School sound systems / induction loop systems and class change systems: Sound and induction loop systems for class rooms, sports halls as well as the main hall. Vision and sound systems for teacher training classrooms. Class change and paging system using speakers in the corridors, a digital voice store and timer unit. Portable sound and induction loop systems: Portable sound equipment for indoor or outdoor use. All our potable equipment is easy to transport, set up and easy to use. The outdoor systems are suitable for covering areas such as playgrounds and football pitches. Hotel sound systems / induction loop systems: Sound and induction loop systems for hotel function rooms, front of house, leisure suites and other areas. The function room sound and induction loop system allows rooms within the suite to be combined or used independently. As the panels on the equipment are custom drawn they relate to the room and therefore make the system easy to use without having to refer to a large instruction manual. Vision systems: We can supply and install projectors, screens and cameras in conference rooms, schools and church settings as well as other public buildings. Hire equipment: We have a range of sound and induction loop equipment available for hire covering indoor and outdoor events. We manufacture a wide variety of equipment including one off bespoke units. All our manufactured equipment is designed and built by us from the printed circuit boards to the equipment labels. Each unit is extensively tested to ensure many years of fault free use. Examples of some of the standard units we manufacture are listed below. - Six or eight input mixer amplifiers in a 2U high case. Each input on the mixer amplifier is provided with a volume control, gain control and a muting button allowing the input to be silently switched on/off without adjusting the setting of the volume control. - Induction loop amplifiers for a wide variety of buildings from a doctors surgery waiting room to a large church or conference room. Many of the induction loop amplifiers and control circuitry are housed in the same case as the mixer amplifier. - Parametric graphic equaliser housed in the same case as the mixer amplifier to prevent un-authorised adjustment. - Paging amplifier with facility to route signal to selected areas and to silence any background music during paging. -Wall mounted mixer amplifier housing multiple amplifier modules for speakers and facility to route any input on the mixer to any room or area. - Outdoor sound system with the mixer, amplifiers, speakers and radio microphone receivers housed in a single case. The portable sound system has a battery module that can be removed from the unit and charged between use.
