The MCD-Wireless system comprised eight microphones positioned on the tables without any unnecessary cabling to make for a clean, uncluttered presentation and expedient installation. A remote control switch was also specified to switch the microphones on and off simultaneously from a PC or laptop. As a very flexible system the MCD-W was configured especially by beyerdynamic, and tailored to meet the organisers specific requirements.
The beyerdynamic MCD-W Conference System incorporates all the standard features such as mic switching, hierarchical request to speak and chairman's override. In addition, a loudspeaker is installed into each station and negates the need for a PA system whilst delivering audio in sonic clarity to the delegates. This facility also means that audio levels can be kept low as its intelligent speaker switching automatically dims the volume of units adjacent to those with open microphones to reduce the possibility of acoustic feedback.
Released late in 2001, various additional systems features are available including ‘Voting’ and ‘Simultaneous Translation’. These can be easily configured to operate with alternative media control systems including Cue, AMX and Crestron.
