d&b Networks at USITT 2007

Phoenix and the USITT exhibition proved perfect hosts for d&b audiotechnik who true to form inhabited a striking and colourful booth. Featured on the stand and supported with some high impact artwork, was the newly expanded d&b Remote network. Comprising the new R60 USB to CAN interface, the recently released ROPE C Version 2.0.7 remote software for PC platforms and, last but by no means least, the d&b D12 and E-PAC amplifiers.

The d&b R60 USB to CAN interface is a new addition to the d&b Remote network. It is designed to connect d&b's amplifiers to a PC and comes with drivers for WindowsR operating systems. The ROPE C Version 2.0.7 permits the use of up to five R60 interfaces with one computer enabling a maximum of five hundred and three amplifiers into one system design. This latest software version of ROPE C also offers the ability to control and monitor d&b loudspeaker systems in much greater detail at the amplifier level, via its graphical drag and drop interface. Grouping d&b's amplifier functions is the key to reduce system complexity, while, where necessary, the full detailed control of the d&b loudspeaker system is possible from only one surface, be it for live or installed applications. Also on show and by no means taking a remote part were d&b's renowned Q-Series loudspeakers.

Colin Beveridge who heads up d&b's US office commented: "We see ever more complex systems implemented by touring engineers in order to achieve uniform quality audio coverage. Audiences deserve that attention to detail but system set up times can prove prohibitive. The d&b software means it doesn't have to be that way. In Europe recently a large arena show using over 100 d&b J-Series loudspeakers were grouped and controlled using the d&b Remote network. Set up took just 30 minutes."
