Dante & Your Business:

How AV-over-IP can support virtual conferencing during COVID-19

As the space between employees increases, distance-limited USB-based conferencing solutions falter. With people safely distanced, it becomes increasingly difficult to hear what’s being said through a soundbar at one end of a room, and it is nearly impossible for a single USB microphone to capture everyone. Attendees on the opposite end of the call hear far too much room noise, and words become a blur. Loud voices near the microphone drown out others. Frustration and futility are the inevitable, unproductive outcomes.

It’s useful to ask what an imagined solution might look like, addressing the use cases and distancing required.

Audio-over-IP solutions like Audinate’s popular Dante are widely available in products from hundreds of manufacturers, providing a toolset that ensures a consistent, intuitive workflow with 100% easy interoperability between devices. Even used in a simple implementation, Dante addresses most of the concerns we have for safe, socially-distanced conferencing and is extendable to address many more.

Audio-Technica Microphone Tutorial: Overcome the Challenges of Socially Distanced Classrooms & Meeting Spaces

Classrooms and presentation spaces that require social distancing are presenting challenges in applications that would normally use desktop boundary microphones or a single ceiling-mounted DSP based microphone solution. Overcoming distance limitations by placing multiple microphones with high directionality in the ceiling provides an effective way to cover a space while maintaining a safe distance.

This video features Audio-Technica's ES931ML highly directional microphones mounted to flush mount Dante interfaces. This combination provides superior control over sound sources along with the simplicity of Dante audio routing.
