FAQ | Does Q-SYS have integration with any Audio Measurement platforms?

Gain insight into how Q-SYS seamlessly integrates with audio measurement platforms.

Answer


As of this writing there are no Plugins or scripted solutions available (internally or externally) for direct integration to commonly used audio measurement platforms.  Thus immediate usage of Q-SYS and a selected audio measurement platform would be limited to the audio connectivity available in an implementation (analog, AES3, Dante, AES67, and AVB).

However, Q-SYS does have support for a wide-range of control-related applications.  Therefore, it is definitely possible to leverage the API available in many audio measurement platforms for two-way interaction between the external platform and Q-SYS.  To do so would involve leveraging one of the scripted components within Q-SYS.

It is also important to note that within Q-SYS itself there are already available components that may provide a solution for audio measurements in many cases, therefore not requiring a separate audio measurement platform.

Included Components for audio measurement and analysis:
-Signal source components: Sine, White Noise, Pink Noise
-Frequency Measurement components: RTA, Responsalyzer (the latter being capable of FFT with a Reference Channel)
-Level Measurement components: Level Meter, (Peak and RMS), LKFS Meter, SPL/Leq Meter (Linear/A/C Weighting)
