Hotel & Hall Systems
We have installed sound, vision and induction loop systems in over 40 hotels, halls and leisure centres. Many of the systems are custom designed and built by us, including labels, making the system specific to the room or building. As the labels relate to the building the system is extremely easy to use without having to read a large instruction manual or compromising the versatility of the system.
Function Suites  
In general all the equipment is housed in a single wall mounted box or rack unit. The number of inputs on the mixer can be adjusted to meet the needs of the building. Normally six inputs are provided for hotel function suites, each input having tone and volume controls to cater for different microphones and users.
Where the function suite can be split into a number of rooms a routing matrix is provided allowing the signal from each input to be routed to a single room or a combination of rooms. Such an arrangement allows the function suite to be used as a single room or as several smaller rooms, each with a master volume control and line output allowing an event to be recorded.
The microphone sockets in the rooms are terminated in a patch panel with the sockets arranged so that they show the approximate location of the microphones within the room. Using ‘flying leads’ from the mixer allows any input to be connected to any socket. In addition, many systems have the facility to switch off various speakers in the rooms so that a microphone is not used directly below a speaker. The speaker switches are arranged in a mimic diagram showing the approximate location of the switchable speakers.

Leisure Centres
   
We have fitted sound and induction loop systems in a number of local leisure centres as well as leisure and fitness centres in hotels. Each system is only installed after discussing the exact needs of the users and building, thus, making the system easy to use. In general the system uses a 2/3 input mixer amplifier allowing connection of a line source and two microphones. Volume controls are provided on or near the mixer amplifier allowing adjustment of the background music levels in various areas of the complex. In addition we can supply systems where two or more background music sources are provided with the signal routed to various areas. For example one music source could be routed to the pool with a separate background music source routed to the corridors. A paging microphone is provided at the reception desk with push buttons allowing signal to be routed to various areas within the leisure centre. During paging the background music signal is silenced before being returned to its normal level upon completion of the paging signal.

Front & House Sytems    
The leisure suite system can easily be adapted to be used as a Front of House system in a hotel or other public building. The system allows background music to be controlled and routed to any area in the hotel. All the area controls are clearly marked. As with the leisure suite system two or more background sources could be connected to the system and routed to different areas in the hotel. The system would allow paging from the front desk with routing buttons allowing selection of the areas to be paged.
