As speech is of pivotal importance during prayer sessions, it was recently decided to find a way of enhancing speech quality and audibility in the prayer hall. At the same time it made sense to upgrade the audio control system to provide a simplified user interface.
Bose Pro Partner, Apple Sound, was asked to provide a demonstration of a system that could do all of the above, and they chose to showcase Bose line array technology, combined with a Bose ControlSpace audio management system.
The resulting upgrade carried out by Apple Sound includes six Bose Panaray MA12 line array loudspeakers in two triple stacks with Bose Panaray MB4 bass support, and a Bose ControlSpace ESP-88 digital signal processor, combined with a ControlSpace CC64 to manage the whole sound system. A single user interface allows access to presets for room combinations, effects processing, recording and interpretation settings - all of which are engineered to provide a simple and intuitive solution for all users.
