Gradient Beam Steering Conference Active Speaker

    GB8284PB

    Overview


    This professional column array speaker system integrates advanced acoustic engineering with intuitive digital signal processing to deliver unparalleled sound clarity and precise control. It is engineered for applications requiring even coverage, high speech intelligibility, and minimal acoustic interference, such as auditoriums, houses of worship, and conference halls.


    Product features


    Core Acoustic Technologies

    1. Directional Waveguide Technology

    • Ensures precise directivity by suppressing unwanted side lobes, focusing acoustic energy exactly where it's needed for a cleaner sound.

    2. Triple-Beam Gradient Coverage System

    • Utilizes three independent beams for comprehensive sound field coverage:

    • • Far-Field Beam: 60° angle for long-throw projection.

    • • Mid-Field Beam: 100° angle for balanced midfield coverage.

    • • Near-Field Beam: 160° angle for wide, close-range coverage.

    • Each beam's sound pressure level is individually adjustable.

    3. Asymmetric Vertical Radiation & Beam Steering

    • Beam Steering (DSP): The horizontal angle of the near-field beam can be digitally adjusted via DSP to target specific areas and reduce reflections from walls and other surfaces.

    • Asymmetric Vertical Pattern: Employs DSP time delays and a specialized acoustic structure to create a sound pattern that angles downward, drastically reducing ceiling reflections. This results in:

    • • More uniform front-to-back coverage without physically tilting the cabinet.

    • • Enhanced speech clarity by delivering strong direct sound.

    • • Reduced room reverberation and acoustic interference.

    Input & Control Flexibility

    4. Multi-Format Audio Input

    • AOIP (Audio over IP): Supports mainstream network audio protocols for seamless integration into modern audio networks.

    • Analog & Digital Inputs: Features both analog and digital/AES3 input options, which can be used independently or in a mixed-matrix configuration.

    5. Comprehensive Network Management

    • The device can be easily connected to a network switch for remote configuration, monitoring, and control via dedicated software.

    DSP & Amplification

    6. Integrated DSP & Amplification

    • Powerful DSP Software: An intuitive, dedicated software interface provides full control, including:

    • • Beam selection and steering

    • • 7-band parametric EQ

    • • High-pass and low-pass filtering with adjustable slopes

    • • Input level control, mute, and preset management (save/recall)

    • Built-in Multi-Channel Amplifier: Features a high-stability, multi-channel digital power amplifier matched perfectly to the speaker drivers.

    Driver Design & Enclosure

    7. Optimized Driver Array

    • A scientific combination of dedicated full-range drivers ensures optimal sound wave coupling and transparent sound quality:

    • • Far/Mid-Field: High-quality 3.5-inch drivers.

    • • Near-Field: 2-inch drivers for wide dispersion.

    • Elegant Enclosure: The slender, wooden cabinet is available in black or white finishes, designed for aesthetic integration into any modern environment
