21:9 Ultra Wide Format

by | Sep 21, 2023 | Uncategorized

What is 21:9? Why do we keep hearing about it? And why, all of a sudden, are we seeing a push to come out with these large format displays to support it? If you are anything like the hundreds of people I spoke to at InfoComm, you have some questions about it. Let’s review the basics of the format and highlight how we can use and sell this 21:9 immersive experience.

The 21:9 Aspect ratio, also known as the Ultrawide format, refers to the proportional relationship between the width and height of a display. Unlike our everyday experience of 16:9 and 16:10 displays, which are common in most TVs, monitors, and projectors, the 21:9 aspect ratio offers a wider, more immersive viewing experience.

Displays and TVs are getting HUGE! 98-inch displays are almost the standard now, and we are seeing 110-inch or larger in the 16:9 format. As the displays get larger, they get taller due to the standard aspect ratio of 16:9. Now, suddenly, we are running out of ceiling height to get into that sweet spot of a comfortable viewing angle for our audience. That 110-inch display you just ordered might not allow you to get 48 inches above the finished floor, which means we might have unusable content space when a conference table is in the way or for someone in the back row. An easy fix would be running a 2×1 display wall and using your 55-inch or 65-inch displays to show your desired content. Now, we don’t have the ease or clean aesthetic of one display in your conference room. That is where *shameless plug* something like the Avocor 105-inch 21:9 displays comes into place.

We have used the 21:9 aspect ratio in our daily lives with our computer monitors for years now. It’s giving us that cleaner one-screen approach. 21:9 monitors provide us with beautiful benefits, instead of using 2-3 displays. Some of these benefits are easier cable management, less power usage, and more desk space while not sacrificing the ability to look at multiple windows simultaneously.

In an office, we can now benefit from using these large formats 21:9 displays to fully immerse an audience in a Microsoft Teams Front Row experience. We have the best of both worlds nowadays, where people are remote, hybrid, or in the office, which often makes communication/collaboration tricky.
Microsoft has a fix for that with the MTR Front Row. Being in the office and able to clearly see content, faces, and chat makes meetings much more enjoyable and productive.

Avocor L series - AVL-1050-T – TOUCH

For interactive flat panels, 21:9 makes the most sense. As screens get taller, shorter people cannot reach the very top, making that space unusable for content or even intimidating to use. For tall people, the bottom of the screen is a hassle to reach down and bend over awkwardly, making that space almost unusable for them. With the Avocor AVL-1050-T 105-inch 21:9 display, we are now able to reach everywhere, and have the benefits of having the content of two 65-inch displays on one convenient large format display, without sacrifcing important usable space. With MTR Front Row being Microsoft supported, it’s easy to see that your Windows-based computer should and will support this format.

As technology continues to evolve, the 21:9 aspect ratio has become a game-changer in the world of visual experiences. Its wider field of view, immersive qualities, and productivity benefits make it a sought-after choice for corporate America. I see 21:9 being here to stay as it transforms how we consume and interact with digital content.

Breaking Down DVLED part 5 – First Things First

by | Sep 14, 2023 | Digital Signage, DVLED, Uncategorized, Video Walls

Part 4: First Things Frist

Topic: The importance of proper site prep.

I remember working in the garage as a kid with my dad, and it seemed like 80% of the time we were cleaning up and 20% of the time we were actually working on a project. He would always say, “a clean workspace is a safe workspace!”

I didn’t really appreciate that wisdom then, but I do now.

Whether you are hanging and banging a 50-inch LCD display in a conference room or installing and commissioning a 220-inch LED video wall in an auditorium, the same wisdom applies in terms of making sure the site is ready, all the tools for the job are on hand, and the project punch list is ready to execute.

For dvLED displays, the site prep requirements are pretty rigid, and for good reason. I’m going to discuss a few universal requirements that you will run into on almost every dvLED project.

To begin, often times a tech will be scheduled to come onsite to assist with or even perform the installation. They are typically slated to be onsite for a limited window of time. It is the integrators responsibility to ensure that everything is ready for them to jump in and start working when they arrive to the site. Delays could be cause for extending the time required for the tech to be onsite. This usually leads to change orders. And we all know how much our customers dislike those!

Another important site requirement spec that you will undoubtedly run into are power and data requirements. Big walls require more power, and as such, this requires more outlets. AV integrators aren’t electricians, so it’s critical to have the proper spec requirements in advance to provide to the end user. Fortunately, many vendors, such as Absen and others, provide this information via written specs and technical drawings.

voltage-diagram

One of the most important considerations when installing a dvLED video wall is the actual wall surface that it is mounting to. Since dvLED walls are made up of multiple cabinets and modules and are, by nature, designed to be seamless, it is very important to ensure that there are no seams! This is why you will often see requirements for cabinet or marine grade plywood backing. At minimum, BC Sanded One-Side will be required to ensure that the X-axis is completely flat and true. Considering the cost of the video wall, the extra investment in some plywood is a small price to pay to ensure the wall is perfect.

Finally, you need a plan to dispose of all the waste that is left behind. A typical video wall might ship in four or five large wooden crates, with dozens of large cartons and packages enclosed. This can result in a literal mountain of trash. Have a plan to remove this from this site as you go. A cluttered work area is a hazardous work. So as a wise man once said, “a clean workspace is a safe workspace.” Thanks dad…

This concludes my five-part series on Breaking Down DVLED. I hope you have found these articles useful, and I encourage you all to reach out to me directly if you have dvLED projects on the horizon that I can assist you with.

Adapting to Company Change: Opportunities for personal and collective growth

by | Sep 7, 2023 | Uncategorized

Written by Exertis Almo BDM's Darren Altman, CTS, DSCE & Andrew Giacobbe.

Three AV industry experts, Darren Altman, BDM II – Technical Specialist (Sharp/NEC – East Coast), Andrew Giacobbe, BDM – Brand Specialist (Sharp/NEC – West Coast), and Rob Ziv, Senior VP of Business Development at Exertis Almo, recently hosted a meaningful discussion on navigating company-wide change, detailing the endless opportunities for personal and collective growth within transitional times.

Here’s what they had to say.

Adapting to Company Change

Drawing from his own experience navigating company-wide changes, Andrew details the differences between two key acquisitions.

“I started off in the industry right out of college, working at Stampede, and about three to four months into working, we were acquired by DCC. I wasn’t too familiar with the [DCC] comradery, but not too many changes were made after we were acquired.”

“I saw a bigger change when [Exertis] merged with Almo – it was a [more significant] change because we combined Business Development Managers, Sales Teams, etc. The key factors everyone considers are: What makes sense for both companies? What is our end goal? Where do we see ourselves in 10 years?

Darren AltmanWe all had similar thoughts. And now, the role of BDM has an even bigger meaning.”

Along with the changes dealt with by a newly combined business development team, Darren questions the differences between management and non-management roles following such a significant company change – posing an important question to Senior VP of Business Development, Rob Ziv.

“What were your initial thoughts on the transition from a family-owned to family-operated company, especially following the 75th anniversary celebration?” Darren asked.

Rob Ziv“My perspective is extremely positive,” Rob said. “Typically, when two organizations come together, there are duplicate roles, and fear of [job loss]. The culture here is so different from that mentality, that the conversations that were happening behind closed doors were, ‘We’re bringing everybody over.’”

“Within the BDM group, there were some people that left, but no jobs were eliminated due to duplication,” he elaborated. “Perhaps, other roles were available within the organization that [team members] chose to take. By our first combined Pro AV National Sales Meeting, we were family.”

Darren concurred with Rob’s positive experience.

“Throughout all my years here, there is always welcomeness, and if there is an issue that I can’t figure out, I can find someone who can,” Darren said. “We’re all individuals, we’re all humans working for the same company and purpose – comradery carries you, and it comes with the culture. Let’s take care of our customers and provide a service that fills our needs and the company’s needs. And you meet great people along the way.”

Andrew elaborated, “Before, we only had one Sharp/NEC BDM for the United States. Now, I’m the West and Darren is the East, which allows us to bounce ideas and hit the ground running, right off the bat.”

The increased opportunity for teamwork allows both Darren and Andrew to benefit from each other’s ideas, while also strengthening their vendor relationship with Sharp NEC Display Solutions.

Company Change as an Opportunity for Growth and Development

Despite the challenges associated with company change, Rob details the various opportunities for growth and development within an evolving organization – both business and technical.

“One of the things becoming apparent to me in our new organization is the additional opportunities for everybody,” he said. “While change brings uncertainty, it brings opportunity. The best thing that someone can do [in these situations] is lean in and keep their eyes open for additional ways to learn and grow. And we’ve seen that happen here.”

In reference to new opportunities, Darren acknowledges the importance of building relationships (and maintaining existing ones) with customers.

“With the diversity of our company portfolio, it’s hard to find something that we can’t help our [customers] with, even if it’s something we don’t carry. ‘Let me introduce you to my colleague that can help you through the process,’” he explained.

“We care about the customer, and relationships speak more than just sending texts and emails. I had a phone call with a customer the other day, just to talk. Showing that [interest in our customer] as a group holds a good amount of value beyond the knowledge of product.”

Overall, the three experts acknowledge the importance of providing consistent, quality products and services to Exertis Almo customers.

“We have the right connections,” Andrew explained. “Whether it be with our vendor or an [Exertis Almo team member], we can answer any questions [our customers] have.”

“There’s a comfort level in our customers knowing that they’re in good hands,” said Darren.

Darren and Andrew both acknowledge the importance of building and maintaining relationships with customers, allowing them to collaborate on Sharp/NEC product and service knowledge. Relationship building continues to evolve and grow since the Exertis Almo merger, providing considerable opportunities for personal and company-wide growth.

Behind the Panel: Teaching an Old Dog New Tricks, or: How I Learned to Study Again!

by | Aug 31, 2023 | Uncategorized

Welcome back to “Behind the Panel.” For this edition, I thought I would delve into something truly relevant to most of us in the AV world: studying and preparing to take the CTS Exam. CTS (Certified Technology Specialist) is a certification process given out by AVIXA that is the industry standard in Pro AV. According to their website:

A Certified Technology Specialist (CTS®) performs general technology solution tasks by creating, providing, operating and servicing network-based AV solutions, while conducting AV management activities which provide for the best audiovisual resolutions of the client’s needs, both on time and within budget

When I arrived at Exertis Almo, my job description mandated passing the exam and becoming CTS certified. I had nine months to complete this task. This was a little exciting to me, as it is something I always wanted to accomplish. This was also very terrifying, as I had tried some of the online study guides in the past, but never got far. Topping all of that off is the fact that I have not studied for an exam in close to THIRTY YEARS! Thinking about that number gave me pause, and although I have always considered myself someone who learns and takes tests well, it has been more than a minute since I used my brain in this way.

First, I set a goal and a timeline: Although I had nine months, I wanted to finish it before the end of the year. My goal was five months, and I wrote it down, so I had to commit to it. Second, I spoke to two colleagues that had recently passed the test; taking detailed notes of what worked for them studying and recollections of what their testing experience was like. This was invaluable, because it let me know there was someone who just went through it and survived. Texas Instruments TI-30XS calculatorNext, I made two important purchases: the most recent edition if the CTS Study Guide, and a Texas Instruments TI-30XS calculator. Both are vital. It’s important to become familiar with the way the calculator works – I cannot stress this enough. I was eager and got started right away on the AVIXA website. Highly recommended, check it out. These courses are designed to give you a basic understanding of the concepts you will be learning and offer quizzes at the end of each section to evaluate yourself. I set parameters for myself that I would not move onto the next section until I could get a ninety-five or above on the quizzes.

CTS-study-guide-ed3This worked for three days, because on day four I went back and retook the first few quizzes. To my sheer terror, it was as though I never studied at all. I was having a difficult time recalling the previous info. Panicked, I did the worst thing I could do. I stopped trying. I was convinced that at my age, I could not just go in and memorize things the way I could when I was a college kid. My mind was not working the way I needed it to. I started reading about it, studies that have shown how just a general decline in cognitive abilities as you age could affect one’s ability to learn. Just for my own peace of mind, I went to my doctor and explained what I was going through, and after a series of cognitive tests showed I was doing very well cognitively speaking, I decided I needed to change the way I studied.

brain-powerMy approach was to hit my brain from all sides and try and load the information from a variety of sources. I used the online prep path, but at the same time, I started reading the actual book. Things started to stick for longer, so this was a positive sign. I continued doing this for a few weeks when I received some valuable advice: Book the test! Set a deadline and book the exam, because the worst case scenario is that you fail and use it as a practice test. I took this, ran with it, and scheduled myself to take the test in eight weeks.

I also concluded that I would need to set up rigid conditions to overcome my brain’s ability to retain new information. I needed a routine, so here is what I did:

  1. I set aside time and shut everything out. This allowed me to concentrate on what I was reading or looking at and focus solely on that. Ringer off, no emails, no TV. Luckily, my kids are older, so I did not have to worry about toddlers bursting into my office!
  2. I studied from multiple sources. This was a big part of my program. I would set aside a certain amount of time to read in the book, usually forty minutes to an hour. My next step would be to incorporate the online path to certification, again, giving myself a set number of modules to cover. As I got closer to the exam, I also incorporated the study guide that runs with AVIXA’s online CTS class. Which leads me to my next point:
  3. Don’t try and cram too much at once. This was a huge point for me, because when I would try and do too much, I ended up not retaining key facts. How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time!
  4. Music or no music. I found myself listening to classical music when I was reading and studying. There are a couple schools of thought on this. Some say if you listen to music while studying, you will also need music to play during the test. There are other theories that music can activate both sides of your brain at the same time, which can maximize learning and improve memory. I chose classical music because there are no lyrics to distract, and it was helpful having that background noise because when it was pure silence, I felt I could not focus. The best answer is what works for you!
  5. Take a walk. I cannot stress how much this was a huge help. Before I would begin my study sessions, I took a walk around my neighborhood for about 20-25 minutes. I found that I came back feeling noticeably clear minded and it was much easier to focus. There is actual science behind this, as studies have shown that low-intensity exercise can provide a boost to energy levels – ideal for studying for lengthy periods. It has also been shown to improve concentration and help you focus your learning.
  6. Don’t stress about the math. Whoever I speak to now, if they are preparing to take the CTS, the vast majority tend to be very nervous about the math and formulas associated with CTS, which at face value can seem overwhelming. I have two things to say about that: First, while I cannot give exact numbers, when I took the exam, I only used the calculator a handful of times. Second, my colleague, Tom Kehr, has an informative video that helps you learn, understand, and retain AV Math. Check that out here: Math Prep. It is also worth noting that Tom was a huge help, who always made himself available to walk me through things I was not quite grasping. Thanks Tom!

My actual taking of the exam was delayed a few times due to extreme weather, but when I finally took it, I was noticeably confident going in. The worst part was having to take a survey before I received my results, which was probably the most stressful five minutes I can remember. I passed, which was a big accomplishment for me. If you are taking or plan to take, don’t let it stress you out, give yourself time to prepare, and you will do great! Thanks for reading, hope to have you back to read the next edition of “Behind the Panel.”

Edition 7 of “This May Be a Dumb Question, but…” – Audio 101

by | Aug 17, 2023 | Pro Audio, Professional Development, Uncategorized

Blog Series written by Exertis Almo's Ashley Nichols, CTS, DSCE & John Borns, CTS, DSCE.

Welcome to Issue 7 of “This may be a dumb question, but…”. This week, we’re going to tackle some basic questions with audio. This should be a fun one since neither of us would really call ourselves “audio experts.” Luckily, we have a whole team of audio experts on staff at Exertis Almo who will tell us about all of the things we got wrong. 😅 We’re going to share the ways we’ve come to understand some basic principles of audio that we’ve gathered by asking some dumb questions. Below are two questions we hear most frequently from newbies (like us), so hopefully these basic answers will help you feel empowered enough to dig a little deeper and expand that audio knowledge!

QUESTION

What’s the difference between 8ohm vs. 70-volt audio systems?

ANSWER

We will start by saying this: One is not better than the other, no matter what you hear. They are made for different situations and require different levels of sophistication and wiring. This is where your “needs analysis” also comes in, because you can save yourself a lot of unnecessary work if you ask: Is audio the driving NEED of the space, or is it just adding to the experience? Do you need to be able to scale the system later, or cover large areas now? How many audiophiles7 will be in the room to tell you that you chose the wrong brand? All important questions. Here is a chart to help you get an ‘at a glance’ feel for which system could be right for you:

8ohm 70v
Flexibility May require larger changes to the system if you add/remove speakers Most flexible, can add/subtract a few speakers without issue typically
Sound Quality Best Just Fine
Cost Effectiveness Less Expensive More Expensive
Scalability Not ideal for large spaces/long distances Best for large spaces/longer cable runs
Ease of Install Straight forward wiring, less components Relatively easy but may require additional components that add to the cost, time, and attention to detail
Room Size Smaller Spaces Large spaces, multi zone, etc.

As I said at the beginning, neither of these are truly “better” than the other. Like all of us, they just shine brighter when they are used in the right space at the right time. In another episode, we would be happy to go over the wiring differences between the two in more detail, so drop a line in the request section if you think that would be beneficial to you!

QUESTION

What’s the difference between mic level and line level audio?

ANSWER

If you’re a seasoned audio veteran, this probably sounds like the simplest question possible. Well, for someone like me who broke into the industry selling cables, it took me a while to fully understand what the difference is between these, and when/how to work with each one. Phoenix blocksFor me, I was always looking for the connectors on the cables to give me some sort of indication as to what signal they were sending, and to a certain degree they do. An XLR mic cable is GENERALLY used to for mic level audio, but not always. In many cases, there aren’t cable connectors at all, sometimes there’s just PHEONIX1 block connectors. Anyway, it became clearer to me when I learned that they’re all pretty much the same signal just at different voltage levels.

  • Mic Level – I was absolutely floored when I first learned that mic level signals are the signal that is produced by a microphone. I know it sounds crazy, but it’s true. Anyway, microphones are sensitive and produce very low signals, usually measured in mVa (millivolts)2. This signal would not be strong enough to produce and audio signal that you could do anything useful or be able to hear at all.
  • Line Level – The mic level audio signal that we just mentioned will need an audio device to bring that voltage of that signal up to line level. I personally think that line level would be better referred to as “Do Stuff Level”, because this is audio engineers like “do stuff” with the audio signal. Mixing, processing, recording, etc. are all done at line level. Ask Tom Kehr and he will agree that we should start referring to this as the “Do stuff level”. These signals are stronger, usually measured in 1V (volt). Once the signal has been processed and has all of the stuff done to it, it’s ready to be sent out to an amplifier which will bring it to speaker level.
  • Speaker Level – Get this: this is the signal level used to power speakers. The voltage4 is much stronger than line level, usually measured between 10V and 100V. The power of this signal is strong enough to move the physical cones in the speakers to produce the sweet sounds of the Taylor Swift concert that Ashley couldn’t get tickets for (not for lack of trying).

lord of the rings analogySo, really, an audio signal is just like a little hobbit making a journey through Middle Earth. It leaves the Shire weak, but full of ambitions (mic level), it journeys through Middle Earth where it “does a bunch of stuff” (line level) before it finally reaches its final destination in Mordor (speaker), where it finally gets to dunk the ring of power into the fires of Mount Doom and achieve the righteous sounds of a fully produced audio experience.

Vocab Test Time!

Are these the most detailed definitions? No – we are not a dictionary, nor the AVIXA CTS Prep book. Will someone message us after still telling us how much we missed? Possibly. Will these get you a basic working knowledge of these terms and why they matter? 😄 We hope so. Plus, we are 99% sure one of these words will be on your kids’ back to school pop quiz!

  1. Phoenix Block – a.k.a. Euroblock, a.k.a. combicon, essentially a low voltage terminal block commonly used in mic or line level audio signals, but you can also see it in RS232 or RS485 control signals as well.
  2. mVa or Millivolts – one-thousandth of a volt
  3. Milli Vanilli – French-German R&B group that rose to fame and fell to infamy in the last 80’s-early 90’s.
  4. Voltage (E). – The difference in charge between two points, caused by the pressure that forces the current to flow. Voltage is measured in volts.
  5. Current (I). – The rate at which the current flows. Current is measured in amperes, which are also referred to as amps.
  6. Resistance (R). – The rate at which a material resists the current’s flow. Resistance is measured in ohms.
  7. Audiophile – A person with A LOT of passion and enthusiasm around high-quality audio experiences.
