Vibe Microphone(s)

I'm needing to add a conference table type microphone to my Acendo Vibe setup. Does AMX offer anything tailored to this environment besides the standard boundry mics offered by AKG, etc.
Thanks

Not particularly. The CBL mic from AKG was released as the conferencing table mic for the modern conference room. The Vibe is not designed to have a secondary mic attached. The built-in mic array generally covers decent sized rooms. Do you have a stand-alone DSP that can ingest multiple mic feeds?

mmobley

i can, but was trying to avoid that. we love the vibe but it's at the end of long (20') conference table and just not quite doing the job microphone wise. from a speaker standpoint it's fine and all are happy. just looking to decrease the proximity between speaker (talker) and microphone.

Is it possible to cascade a couple of the CBL141's and input to the audio aux in ?

HARMAN_Chris

It was not designed for this use case and I do not think you will have a positive outcome without a DSP.

Thanks for the input. BTW, of the 4 units that i have of these, we've had problems with 3 of them with audio stopping in the middle of zoom calls and not being able to re-establish audio even with restarting the call. Is there a firmware update or something that i'm missing ? These all run on macs that range from high sierra to catalina.

Thanks

Is it possible to increase the microphone gain? Just 6 feet from the soundbar the microphone lacks gain.

Thanks
