新苏格兰市场部署Q-Sys集成Core

英国伦敦（2013年8月13日） — 自2012年初QSC Q-Sys™ Core 250i发布以来，苏格兰视听集成商Black Light已经在 Q-Sys产品系列的基础上设计和安装了多款QSC音频路由和处理系统。总部位于爱丁堡Black Light安装了多个基于Core 250i的Q-Sys设施，既包括从Q-Sys Core管理音频并将音频路由到第三方制造商的扬声器和功放的简单系统，到仅由QSC设备组成的项目。最近他们完成的一个安装项目是苏格兰邓迪溜冰场的新公共广播系统。其中集成的Core 250i为两个扬声器阵列提供音频，每个扬声器阵列包括两个KLA12有源扬声器线阵设备和一个KLA181低音炮。KLA阵列安装在溜冰场上方，是场馆的主要公共广播系统扬声器。天花板附近还额外安装了有角度的AD-S82H无源扬声器，作为舞台边缘的观众座位区的补声扬声器；这些扬声器由一对QSC CX702功放驱动。无源扬声器和CX功放也由Q-Sys Core 250i提供音频。

"Since it was introduced, Q-Sys has offered the twin advantage of being more powerful and friendlier to end-users than competing audio management systems — it's very easy to design systems that can be operated by non-technical staff," comments Phil Haldane, Business Development Manager at Black Light. "Until now, Q-Sys was usually more expensive than the other systems on the market, but the arrival of the integrated Cores, the 250i and the 500i, has changed that. It's opened up different markets, for example churches and local authority venues like schools that probably wouldn't have considered QSys in the past."

Recent installations carried out by Black Light underscore Haldane's point. The Dundee Ice Arena PA system was a local authority project (the venue is owned by Dundee City Council) and the integrator has completed two other Q-Sys installations based around Core 250i processors in the local education sector in the last six months, as well as another Core 250i-based installation in a central Edinburgh church. "Q-Sys has much to offer in terms of raw firepower and overall system integration, but is also very cost-efficient with the Core 250i," adds Haldane. "That was definitely a factor in winning the tender for the Dundee Ice Arena, and it's continuing to secure us new business."

All of the QSC systems mentioned were supplied by Shure Distribution UK (SDUK), the QSC distributor in the United Kingdom. "The Q-Sys Core 250i and 500i offer integrators an easy way to build powerful, flexible audio networks at a low cost, which is attractive to clients," adds SDUK’s Dave Phillips. "Black Light's recent successes with Q-Sys are typical of the opportunities brought about by these new integrated Core processors."
