I have looked at the RAV 600, and that is more for a full room node, whereas this node is in a public space, so the table microphones would not work as well to pick up just the sound we want, compared to the ambient noise around it, and unfortunately the RAV 600 has its own proprietary connection for its microphones to the main system, so it cannot be expanded upon except with other ClearOne microphones directly made for the RAV systems. Thank you though!

Hello all, One of my current projects is a public AG kiosk-like setup, in which people will be able to walk up to the node, choose a stream and start to talk directly with that stream. The area is about a 12' X 12' square area, with drop-tile ceiling, it will consist of 1x HD camera, 1x DV camera, 2x 52" HD LCD TV's, 1x high quality microphone, some sort of directional speakers, and an echo cancellation system. It seems that I would only need one microphone input for this project. However I have mostly worked with the ClearOne XAP400, which is a dual line-in echo cancellation system, and the XAP does not seem to come in a single line-in version. Is there some other echo cancellation unit that people would suggest for a setup like this? Or have I missed a single line-in version of the XAP? Also any other suggestions for the node would be nice to hear, in case others have ideas that haven't been thought of, or others are thinking of building a node such like this. As always all help is appreciated! Matthew Leszczenski - Technical Assistant and Eagle Scout - Undergraduate NSSA Major @ RIT - Collaboration Technology Developer @ RIT Research Computing department
