Good audio quality in office-based conferencing can be difficult to achieve, with spaces like boardrooms not designed with acoustics in mind. They often include large reflective tables and participants can be several meters from the microphone. The ADECIA Tabletop Solution overcomes these problems thanks to the powerful Yamaha DSP technology in the new low-profile, wired RM-TT Tabletop Microphone. Built-in features include auto voice tracking, auto gain control, adaptive echo cancellation, noise reduction and reverberation suppression.
"With a ‘hybrid’ style of working, training and learning - partly office-based, partly at home - now becoming commonplace, high quality conferencing systems are more vital than ever to ensure seamless professional communications," says Michael Fitch, vice president of sales and marketing at Yamaha UC. "With the additional option of Yamaha's RM-TT tabletop microphone, users have more flexibility to customize ADECIA to their use case."
All Yamaha ADECIA solutions are easy-to-set-up, with automated room tuning making them suitable for a wide variety of spaces thanks to the RM-CR processor, which handles all auto mixing and auto configuration. When the RM-CR processor and RM-TT tabletop microphones are combined, the unique voice tracking function automatically selects the microphone closest to the person speaking for optimal voice capture. For example, this can be when a meeting participant moves from the conference table to a whiteboard or a teacher is moving around a classroom.
Up to eight RM-TT pods can be easily added to the system for truly scalable solutions, connecting them via a PoE switch to the RM-CR conference processor. The RM-CR lets users customize room capture patterns by choosing one of six directional modes for each microphone pod. These modes - cardioid, super-cardioid, hyper-cardioid, omnidirectional, bidirectional or toroidal - can be used to divide rooms into dedicated zones for different participants, reduce noise from other people in the room and ensure that, even if the person speaking moves around, their voice will be clearly heard.
The complete solution automatically detects all components of the system and optimizes them for the room environment, taking into account the location of speakers and microphones, reverberation, and any echo. Setting up a room is done through the system's configurator in five effortless steps. With USB, Bluetooth, Dante, and analog connections, this flexible system is suitable for a variety of enterprise or meeting spaces and classrooms.
The ADECIA Tabletop Solution, including RM-TT microphone, will be available in summer 2021.
