Lightware and Genelec have partnered on a new integration to empower organisations with greater AV control.

The leading audio vendor, Genelec, is collaborating with the connectivity solutions business, Lightware, to integrate the Lightware Automated Room Automation (LARA) platform with Genelec’s Smart IP PoE loudspeaker ecosystem.

By allowing system integrators and AV professionals to seamlessly integrate Genelec Smart IP loudspeakers and subwoofers with Lightware products, both businesses stress that users gain precise control over critical audio functions like power management, volume control, and mute functions. This solution is described as being especially beneficial in corporate settings where audio quality and ease of use are crucial, eliminating the need for third-party control systems.

Gergely Vida, CEO of Lightware, commented:

Genelec’s position as the industry standard in professional loudspeaker solutions aligns perfectly with Lightware’s mission to deliver best-in-class AV connectivity. This technology integration delivers a complete solution that meets the highest standards of audio quality and control in professional environments.”

Genelec and Lightware outline that the new driver streamlines the setup and configuration process while enabling real-time monitoring of loudspeaker status. It offers essential information like firmware version, zone ID, and heartbeat. It also supports the loading and configuration of custom acoustic profiles, aiming to ensure optimal audio performance in any setting.

The identification function allows users to locate specific loudspeakers in a multi-loudspeaker setup by triggering a 20-second LED blink for easy troubleshooting.

“By integrating our Smart IP loudspeakers with Lightware’s LARA platform, we’re creating a powerful ecosystem that optimises the user experience in professional environments,” added Kati Pajukallio, Genelec’s AV Business Manager. “It also underlines our shared commitment to innovation and solutions that deliver the highest levels of performance and control.”

Mountaintop Finnish Hotel Scales New Heights With Genelec Audio

Last month, Genelec published a compelling case study illustrating how the idyllic Finnish mountaintop hotel Panorama Landscape Hotel elevated its hospitality experiences by leveraging Genelec’s audio solutions throughout its site.

The venue features intricate wood interiors and is equipped with RAW Genelec Smart IP loudspeakers, elevating guests’ auditory experience. Genelec emphasises the importance of sound in the project, focusing on both acoustics and aesthetics. Local integrators Viking Pro, who had previously worked with the Panorama team on another restaurant, were brought in to maintain the brand’s premium sound legacy.
