WaveCAST C is a Wi-Fi audio platform. The audio is streamed to an app on personal devices or a Wi-Fi receiver, which can be used for assistive listening and other purposes. WaveCAST C integrates with third-party room systems allowing AV professionals to control with Telnet commands via Ethernet.
It is built on a hardware-based DSP audio system architecture, allowing system optimization to achieve the highest quality experience for the particular audio stream being delivered.
Professional audio inputs on the WaveCAST C include 1/4” XLR connectors, phantom power, and a line level output jack. In addition to multi-stage gain control inputs, the DSP features include AGC, limiters, high and low pass filter, and adjustable range compressor control. The 16-bit DAC provides a 48Khz sample rate for a smooth digital stream and minimizes digital harshness. WaveCAST C supports both unicast and multicast network configurations. Up to four WaveCAST C systems can be connected to the same Wi-Fi network to provide multiple listening channels — supporting 45 users in unicast mode or 1500+ users in multicast mode.
The WaveCAST C can have most settings changed via the front panel interface or the hosted web interface. A remote programming guide is available upon request.
The new WaveCAST app provides an easy-to-use, intuitive user interface and is available on iOS or Android. Listeners easily select channel and volume level once their personal device is connected to the Wi-Fi network.
