Introduction

The DZ-MATRIX is the heart of the matrixing system, its peripheral controllers, input/output boxes and microphone desk complete the series dedicated to public address, message broadcasting and zone management.
The complete software allows to assign all inputs and outputs and to process the signal according to the needs of the installation.
The numerous mesh possibilities make it suitable for installations in shopping malls, restaurants, hotels, museums, conference rooms, etc. where the number of entrances and the area of diffusion require precise parameterization.
