Figure 30: Floor plan of cafetorium example application (illustrating RAD to DSP routing)
•
Two RAD1s are installed on the front of the stage. These accommodate the 4 required mics.
•
Two RAD4s are installed high on the wall near the speakers. Two to four powered speakers could
be plugged into these RADs.
•
One RAD2 is installed to satisfy the requirement for a microphone and line input (for playing
background music) at the back of the room,
•
This application contains a total of five RADs, therefore only one Mongoose is needed. The
Mongoose is housed in a sound equipment room along with a network switch and a CobraNet
DSP box that contains a microphone auto-mixer.
