rAVe Names QSC 2015 Best of InfoComm and Top-10 Tour For Q-SYS™ Core 110f DSP Product

Costa Mesa, CA, July 31, 2015 —QSC, a leading manufacturer of digital signal processing, networked signal transport, audio/video control systems, power amplifiers, and loudspeaker products for nearly five decades, is honored to announce it was recognized as one of the top-10 new products to be seen at InfoComm 2015 for its Q-SYS™ Core 110f Appliance on the rAVe Top 10 Tour.  Following the trade show, rAVe awarded QSC a “2015 Best of InfoComm” award for the Best New Audio Product.

Core 110f Appliance was selected from over 100 new product submissions by manufacturers exhibiting at InfoComm 2015 in Orlando, Florida in June.  Over 39,105 attendees from 108 countries had the opportunity to see Q-SYS Core 110f Appliance.

rAVe captured videos and created an on-demand microsite for those unable to attend the show. To watch the QSC onsite video featuring Joe Pham, QSC CEO and TJ Adams, Install DSP Product Manager visit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6a9yUHet7-Y.

“Our entire company is proud to be recognized by rAVe as a top-10 must-see product at InfoComm and for the best new audio product,” said Joe Pham, QSC CEO. . “The launch of Q-SYS Core 110f Appliance at InfoComm marks the first of many in QSC’s product development pipeline aimed at the Corporate AV market, all following the same commitment to providing a native system solution for the IT industry.”

Q-SYS Core 110f Appliance is inherently IT in concept and execution. Q-SYS is a software-based platform, developed to employ standard layer 3 protocols for seamless audio transport and control, as well as easily integrate with IT systems such as LDAP, SNMP, and SIP soft phones. The result is easier acceptance by IT teams, better opportunities for AV integrators, and a seamless collaboration experience for meeting participants whose focus should be on their business, not the technology.

Q-SYS Core 110f Appliance features:

• Software-based implementation of DSP: Delivers more processing power, giving integrators the flexibility to add AEC channels without additional hardware.
• Class leading I/O: Core 110f has 24 I/O + USB, POTS and VoIP simultaneously in a single rack space and one SKU, offering the best cost to I/O ratio in a single chassis product available on the market from any manufacturer.
• 8 Flex Channels: Nearly all the flexibility of a card based DSP solution without the hassle of multiple SKU’s and custom ordering.
• True IT Integration: Core 110f provides more than just networked audio integration and is not just another hardware DSP. Q-SYS is primarily a software platform that allows it to offer greater functionality such as LDAP contact server integration, SNMP monitoring, SIP Soft Phones, and software based routable AEC implementation; it truly is a next-generation AV/IT product that is free of the fixed hardware limitations seen in competing products.
• Suite of software based conferencing technology applications: Including third-generation AEC, multiple-instance SIP Softphones, Gain Sharing and Gating Auto-mixers that span the entire family of Q-SYS Cores.

Q-SYS Core 110f DSP Appliance is the latest embodiment of the innovative, practical solutions that come from the QSC engineering team. It’s not surprising, considering the team include VP of Systems Strategy, Rich Zwiebel, and Director of Systems R&D, John Britton, both of whom were responsible for the development of the first configurable DSP platform in the early 1990’s. Zwiebel says, “The QSC design approach has always been software-driven because it allows a level of flexibility and power that can’t be achieved with a hardware mentality.” Today’s QSC has merged the DSP legacy with its IT and corporate AV expertise, moving QSC in an exciting direction beyond the status quo. There is always a better solution, and Q-SYS Core 110f Appliance is just one example of how QSC is inspiring the AV industry to rethink corporate AV.
