DCIO/DCIO-H
Digital Cinema Input/Output for Q-SYS
DCIO-H is a cinema-specific interface that serves as the audio I/O for each screen in a Q-SYS™ enabled cinema complex. The DCIO-H – along with Q-SYS Core processors, network amplifiers and loudspeakers – provides a cost-effective way to realize the full benefits of a Q-SYS enabled cinema for every room in a multiplex, by delivering a full-system approach to cinema audio design driven by the Q-SYS platform. Using Q-SYS Designer Software and custom UCIs, touchpanels, and mobile apps, the user can configure, control, and monitor their theatre audio equipment through a seamless system view.
