SANCT

Clear sound in the sanctuary makes eff ective communication with the

congregation possible and enhances the fundamental power of the

worship experience. Yet most churches face signifi cant challenges in achieving

that clarity: runaway volumes, poor intelligibility, diffi cult acoustical

environments, and the like.

In addition, many churches rely on the hard work of volunteer staff , and all churches must deal with constantly changing system requirements. Aviom off ers a range of digital solutions that are both intuitive and powerful: easy for volunteer users to master, yet with all the features technical experts expect. With Aviom, your digital audio system adapts to the changing needs of the church, both during the course of a busy week and as your ministry grows over the years.

PROVEN SOLUTIONS FOR THE HOUSE OF WORSHIPAviom’s digital solutions are uniquely suited for church facilities that require both out-standing audio performance and unmatched fl exibility and simplicity.

All Aviom systems are connected by A-Net®, Aviom’s groundbreaking digital audio tech-nology. As a technology designed specifi cally for audio, A-Net offers clear advantages for both system designers and users. With Aviom and A-Net, your church's audio system can accommodate the evolving needs of your congregation and facility without adding sig-nifi cant costs for wholesale redesign and without sacrifi cing fi delity or ease of use.

SIMPLIFY DESIGN AND INSTALLATION

“We had already installed Aviom systems in two other Eagle Brook Church campuses, and they have performed fl awlessly. We love to install Aviom because it is so easy.”

DIGITAL SNAKES: Simplifi ed Connectivity from Stage to Console

An Aviom digital snake will improve the fi delity and reliability of your audio sys-tem, while reducing your maintenance burden. Analog systems are inherently infl exible and are prone to ground loops, hum, and failed connections. Replac-ing a bulky analog snake with a high-quality digital system will eliminate these challenges with the simplicity of plug-and-play connectivity.

MONITOR MIXING: Clear Sound in the Sanctuary

Aviom is well known for revolutionizing monitor mixing, and the A-16II Personal Mixer has become a fi xture in houses of worship, on concert stages, in orchestra pits, and in studios around the world. Musicians, worship leaders, engineers, and congregations have all discovered the benefi ts of giving musicians personal con-trol over their monitor mixes: better performances on stage, less strain on the tech team, and improved clarity and fi delity throughout the sanctuary.

AUDIO NETWORKING: Flexibility for a Unifi ed Campus

As your ministry grows and your production needs expand, the fl exibility of a digital audio network will give your church the power to connect multiple areas within your facility or to tie together an entire campus. While many digital sys-tems cannot scale smoothly from the simple point-to-point architecture of a snake to the versatility of a network, Aviom’s systems can grow with your needs.

GET SANCTUARY VOLUME UNDER CONTROL

“The Aviom Personal Mixers have helped keep the bands happy and have lowered the stage volume at the same time. I can concentrate strictly on front-of-house sound for the congregation.”

CONNECTED BY A-NET®Because Aviom’s A-Net technology was built specifi cally for the unique demands of moving audio, it eliminates the inherent complexity and instability of Ethernet-based systems. Designers, installers, and users alike benefi t from A-Net’s unprecedented combination of performance and fl exibility.

PERSONAL MIXING

Th e goal is simple: clear sound at a comfortable volume. No matter how good your sound system is or how diligently your tech team works, poor clarity and excessive volume will compromise your service until the sound on the platform is brought under control.

In most cases, the single biggest source of on-stage volume is the musicians’ monitors and, contrary to popular belief, musicians really don’t want their monitors rock-and-roll loud. To play at their best, musicians need to hear themselves and one another, and that’s more about clarity and control than volume.

PERSONAL CONTROL AT YOUR FINGERTIPSWith an Aviom Personal Mixer, such as the A-16II, within easy reach, every performer has direct control over his or her monitor mix, whether listening through in-ears, headphones, or a wedge. Aviom Personal Mixers are in-tuitive and powerful—easy to learn and simple to use, with all the control options that you need to get perfect mixes every time.

A-Net, the technology behind all of Aviom’s products, defi nes a new standard in digital audio connectivity. Unlike Ethernet-based protocols, A-Net adapts to the precise needs of your application, without requiring you to learn a unique set of complicated rules for setup and use. So with A-Net you can confi gure and use your audio system the way you want, even as your needs evolve or expand.

In fact, system setup with A-Net is always plug-and-play, with no computer-based confi guration to worry about and no concerns about latency accumulation or clock degradation. Whether you're building a personal mixing system, digital snake, or full audio network, A-Net delivers unparalleled simplicity and fl exibility, combined with world-class audio performance and rock-solid reliability.

DIGITAL SNAKES & AUDIO NETWORKING

Traditional analog methods of moving audio require running one cable for each signal to every desti-nation. Connecting additional locations or additional signals is expensive and complicated, and the results can often be disappointing as fi delity degrades and technicians are faced with tracking down audio drop-outs and noise.Installing a well-designed, robust digital audio system will eliminate these challenges and support the expanding goals of your ministry, improving the clarity and connectivity throughout your church campus for not only the worship and techni-cal teams but for the community as a whole.

RECONFIGURE AND EXPAND AS YOUR NEEDS CHANGE

“As a whole, the Aviom system helps to give the church more options in how the stage is set up and the ability to easily move people around. This is important in a church application where they host a number of events with varied audio requirements.”

Dan Purdom, Lead Installer/Engineer for Ford Audio-Video
