Yamaha Ya-1 Audio Conferencing System Now Available
The early stages of every successful meeting include creating an agenda, choosing the appropriate participants then finally selecting a time and place for the meeting. The day of the meeting arrives, attendees file in – both physically and virtually – and the gathering begins, but an often overlooked detail reared its ugly head: poor audio quality. Poor audio has ruined many meetings and will continue to do so as long as companies don’t prioritize this critical component of audio conferencing.
Yamaha UC announced the general availability of Yamaha YA-1 Wireless Microphone Conference Ensemble. The conferencing solution boasts a preconfigured USV audio system that promises an exceptional audio experience for participants.
The Yamaha YA-1 consists of an eight channel executive elite wireless microphone package, two VXLI-16P Power over Ethernet (PoE), Dante-enabled speaker arrays with wall volume controller, a preconfigured digital signal processor, a five port PoE switch, Dante AVIO USB adapter and all the necessary cabling. The system is easily deployed, and once setup meeting participants will immediately see the impact of advanced acoustic echo cancellation algorithms and dynamic microphone mixing technology.
“The utilization of UC applications is no longer limited to personal offices, huddle spaces, and mobile environments. More and more organizations are turning to UC platforms in larger conferencing spaces and boardrooms, which requires equipment that can deliver the reliable, high-quality audio that ensures effective communication,” said Phil Marechal, VP of business development and product management, Yamaha Unified Communications. “The YAI-1 solves the real-world audio challenges of these applications while also streamlining systems and installation efficiencies for IT managers, a true testament to the breadth of Yamaha’s product portfolio.”
Meeting rooms are a hub of collaboration, requiring exceptional components to deliver upon user expectations. Communication spurs business growth, whether it’s your weekly sales meeting or the first call with a prospective client.
