TesiraFORTÉ AI – Standard Model for High Quality Audio

Perfect for small to medium sized rooms (i.e. conference rooms or council chambers), the TesiraFORTÉ AI model is designed for installations that require premium audio solutions such as those with voice lift and mix minus. The TesiraFORTÉ AI (non-AVB model) is ideal for environments where a standalone DSP is required for localized audio in each room. The TesiraFORTE AI is a digital server-class device by definition, and features fixed I/O configuration of 12 mic/line level inputs and 8 mic/line level outputs, 4 GPIO connections, and up to 8 channels of configurable USB audio. Other TesiraFORTE models include the TesiraFORTE CI, TesiraFORTE TI, and the TesiraFORTE VI.

The TesiraFORTE non AVB models include the same features as the AVB models, aside from those correlated to AVB networking. They are still capable of interfacing with third party controls and being controlled and programmed remotely over a network. The non AVB TesiraFORTÉ models are a cost competitive, premium audio solution for environments where audio networking isn’t a requirement. These models are best intended for conference rooms in need of their own audio DSP.
