Web App
Our web app, PowerZone™ Control, is the most versatile DSP controller available for configuring audio/voice systems in locations requiring multi-zone audio setup with multiple mic talk overs.
PowerZone™ Control facilitates effortless customization of even the most detailed audio/voice systems and management of multiple DSP configurations and tuning features, such as multi-zone setup, input mixing, priority and ducking, restriction, input and output EQ, S/PDIF output routing, high-pass filter, speaker management and presets, delay, Wall-S1 controller configuration, Sine generator, and much more.
PowerZone™ Control caters to the demanding requirements of advanced system installs in locations such as retail stores, restaurants, hotels, educational facilities, theatres, bars, cafes, fitness locations, vast hospitality spaces, and spaces with multiple meeting/conference rooms.
PowerZone™ Control is embedded in our PowerZone™ Connect DSP amplifiers, and can be accessed from any device and browser via the PowerZone™ Connect built-in Wireless-Access-Point or RJ45 network port.
