Processing

The World’s Most Powerful Software Based DSP Solution for Audio, Video & Control

Q-SYS™ has no equal as a scalable audio, video and control ecosystem. Driven by the Q-SYS OS, it leverages the power of Intel™ processing, the robustness and mission-critical reliability of a purpose-built Linux™ kernel, the interoperability of IEEE networking standards, and of course the limitless potential Q-SYS realtime operating system to deliver an open and IT-friendly Platform, which in turn enables an entire Ecosystem of Q-SYS Partners and open device integration development. The capabilities of Q-SYS software-based processing and control transcends the limitations found in single purpose, hardware-based products.

  • Layer 3 networking: Ensures Q-SYS can run on the backbone of existing IT infrastructure eliminating the need for a dedicated audio network.
  • Industry-leading hardware design: Future-proof investment in standards-based software and computer technology running on Intel processors.
  • Simple, cost-effective scalability: Its flexible software-based architecture allows Q-SYS to accommodate the growth of your system while supporting the needs of your unique security environment as they change.
  • Unified design/development software suite: Single training investment in one software design tool for small to large systems of all applications types.
