Crestron MediaManager is a comprehensive family of affordable products fusing high-performance AV signal distribution, device control, and facility-wide system management. MediaManager simplifies the art of ProAV system design and installation with complete hardware, software, and low-cost wiring solutions. Whether installing a single boardroom or a campus-wide network of AV systems, MediaManager delivers power and value far beyond conventional products and designs. The QM-AE1 provides a solution for extracting stereo program and microphone audio signals from the QuickMedia transport to feed a power amplifier or other audio device. It may be inserted anywhere along the QM signal path without affecting the audio, video, and computer signals passing through it. For ultimate flexibility, it can also operate as a QM endpoint, effectively functioning as a QM audio receiver.
The QM-AE1 lets you control and optimize your system's audio performance without the need for additional outboard processors. Each output channel includes programmable volume, bass, treble, and mute, plus ten-band graphic equalization and 2-band parametric equalization. In addition, each speech output includes up to 40 ms of delay adjustment for proper ceiling speaker alignment. All audio processing and mixing is performed in the digital domain, adjustable at setup using Crestron QM Tools software (part of Crestron Toolbox)
Provides stereo program and 2 discrete speech outputs
Includes built-in digital mixing, signal routing, equalization, and delay processing
