Description/Objective

This is an example with a Control Room Audio Solution in a nursing sim lab. In this example, there are two speakers in the sim room, however; an OWISP overhead speaker for communication and instructions, and a PSP in-wall speaker to communicate as the dummy patient. The customer is requesting a User Interface to select the speaker for their talkback audio at a moment's notice. This means we will also build a Canvas User Interface (this will be covered in another section). Before building in Canvas, it is crucial to create the Tesira configuration properly.


Physical Wiring/Line Diagram

Below is the physical wiring diagram.

Tesira Software

Connections

  1. If we've completed our physical connections, open the Tesira software and start building a configuration.
  2. In this configuration we'll be using the following blocks:
    • TesiraFORTE CI block
    • Peak Meter x 3
    • Uber Filter x 2
    • Level Block with 2 ports
    • Compressor with "ganged mode" and "advanced curve"
    • Matrix Mixer with 2 inputs and 5 outputs
    • Standard Mixer with 2 inputs and 2 outputs
    • Preset Button with 3 presets
  3. Connect the blocks as follows:
    • Connect a peak meter to the Tesira Input block. This will help us to be sure we have the proper levels set on the preamp.
    • Connect the AEC block to the Uber Filters, then the Filters to the Level Block.
    • Connect the Level Block to the Compressor and the second Peak Meter.
    • Connect the Compressor to the Matrix Mixer.
    • Connect outputs 1 & 2 from the Matrix Mixer to the Output block and peak meter.
    • Connect output 3 from the Matrix Mixer to the Standard Mixer.
    • Connect the outputs from the Standard Mixer to the output block and the peak meter.
    • Connect outputs 4 & 5 from the Matrix Mixer to the AEC Reference.
    • Place the Preset Block(s) in a convenient place for now.


When we're complete, our file should look something like this:

Creating Presets

Open up the mixers, the preset block, and the preset manager on the left side.

Creating a Canvas User Interface

In another section, we will build the corresponding Canvas UI configuration for the Speaker Selector. Click the image below:
