In Space CE configurations, the Ceiling Microphones section identifies which microphones in the room are ceiling mounted. Ceiling microphones are presented on the user interface as a single roof microphone control rather than as individual faders, so users mute and unmute the whole set with one button.
A ceiling microphone is controlled in one of two ways, and the configuration differs accordingly:
- Directly on the device — set Device ID to the ceiling microphone device defined under Devices.
- Through a DSP — set Microphone ID to the Microphones channel under Audio Sources that controls the microphone. The channel is a normal audio fader, so everything in Audio Sources applies to it, including its Type.
Config Properties
| Property | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| ID | string | Unique identifier. Other parts of the configuration reference the ceiling microphone by this value |
| Device ID | string | Device ID of the ceiling microphone, when controlling the device directly |
| Microphone ID | string | The Audio Sources Microphones channel that controls the ceiling microphone, when it is controlled through a DSP |
| Disable | boolean | Whether this ceiling microphone is disabled for this system |
Mute Synchronisation
Where a room has more than one ceiling microphone, the Synchronize Ceiling Microphone Mute States option under Audio Sources makes them act as one: muting or unmuting any ceiling microphone applies the same state to all the others.
Leave the option off where the ceiling microphones need to be muted independently.
