Bose Professional has unveiled two key additions to its ControlSpace ecosystem: ControlSpace Accelerator, a software tool that streamlines audio system design, and ControlSpace Cloud, a cloud-based monitoring service, both free via a software and firmware update. The ControlSpace ecosystem provides networked control, mixing and monitoring for Dante-enabled audio systems in commercial spaces.
- Bose Professional introduces ControlSpace Accelerator, a software tool that speeds up audio system design by up to five times.
- ControlSpace Cloud, a new cloud-based monitoring service, provides real-time insights and monitoring for networked audio systems.
What’s New in the Bose Professional Ecosystem?
ControlSpace Accelerator’s primary focus is to automate and expedite audio system design, thus generating a substantial reduction in design and programming time thanks to an intuitive interface that simplifies the configuration of ControlSpace processors.
ControlSpace Cloud, is a cloud-based monitoring service that provides real-time insights, allowing for more efficient system maintenance and troubleshooting. This service is designed to be fully scalable, catering to the needs of a single room or multiple organisations worldwide from one dashboard, offering instant notifications via email, Teams, Slack, or other popular platforms. This feature reduces the need for site visits, boosting system reliability
Shawn Watts, director of product at Bose Professional, said:
“Accelerator delivers a huge improvement in the time it takes to design systems during the design and programming process, allowing integrators to complete end-to-end DSP design with just a few clicks. And Cloud brings smarter management and greater insight to ControlSpace devices, allowing installers to instantly respond-to and even anticipate system issues before they happen, reducing unnecessary site visits and boosting reliability. These releases are about making people’s jobs easier, and we’re looking forward to continuing to develop the power and scope of the ControlSpace ecosystem”
John Maier, chief executive officer at Bose Professional, emphasised the company’s commitment to customer-centric innovation, stating:
“We’re proud to be expanding and empowering the ControlSpace ecosystem with the addition of Accelerator and Cloud, delivering the control and security that are at the foundation of our legacy of innovation.”
