PG. 3 SOLUTIONS FOR:
PG. 4 OUR PRODUCTS Bluesound Professional is a range of equipment built for the design and installation of complete commercial audio systems, capable of the replay and control of audio from a wide variety of streaming services and locally or network-stored digital audio files. Systems can be small, one zone installations to large flexible multi-zoned and multi-purpose installations in any hospitality or business environment. Bluesound Professional units can form complete systems and are available in the following categories: NETWORKED STREAMERS At the heart of the Bluesound Professional ecosystem are a range of single and multi-zone networked streamers. Using the established BluOS operating system to access over 20 streaming platforms and internet radio stations, these streamers also allow access to both network-attached and local storage devices containing your audio libraries. Bluesound Professional streamers are available with and without integral power amplifiers, with the former being used in new installations and the latter facilitating easy connection to existing systems. COMMERCIAL AMPLIFIERS Bluesound Professional features multi-channel commercial audio amplifiers, effectively reducing the size and complexity of amplification in even the largest installations. MOUNTED LOUDSPEAKERS Active loudspeakers including BluOS streamers allow for completely integrated systems, totally eliminating the need for equipment racks. CONTROLLERS As well as access using computers or mobile devices and interfaces to leading third-party control systems, Bluesound Professional also offers dedicated, elegant, intuitive wall-mount controllers to make the control of systems beautifully simple.
PG. 5 INDUSTRIES WE SERVICE Bluesound Professional products are suitable for any commercial installation which requires flexible, high-quality reproduction of audio from one or a variety of sources. Our systems are also controllable from a wild variety of devices and are designed for the high quality reproduction of audio. The following are examples of markets in which these products and systems are designed to be used. HOSPITALITY Bluesound Professional products have been designed to specifically meet user needs in this area. Cafés, restaurants, hotels and bars are examples of these installations. Within these spaces, high quality appropriate background (and sometimes foreground) audio sets the right tone and increases business. RETAIL For both shopping malls and in-store systems, the replay of appropriate ‘on-brand’ content is shown to increase sales and improve customer satisfaction. Bluesound Professional systems can be zoned and grouped to allow the replay of different content to different areas and departments. Integration with control and management systems allows for scheduling of content in order to closely track and influence buying behavior. ATHLETIC FACILITIES & GYMS The replay of appropriate, zoned audio motivates users to exercise and achieve their goals. Local microphone and line inputs allow for the amplification and replay of wired or wireless instructor microphones in fitness classes to ensure that the instructors can be heard. HOSPITAL AND CARE FACILITIES Relevant audio can stimulate rehabilitation and reduce stress. Both local and global inputs can interface to paging and messaging systems and advanced zoning facilities can allow for the level of the system as well as its content to be tailored to the precise needs of specific groups of patients. TRANSIT FACILITIES Bluesound Professional equipment can be added to existing paging and messaging systems in mass transit facilities to permit the broadcast of background audio in order to make waiting times appear shorter and to enhance privacy in these environments. OFFICE ENVIRONMENTS The increasing predominance of open offices raises privacy concerns and potentially reduces productivity. The replay of low level content can increase productivity and contribute to a feeling of privacy. In addition, sound masking systems can be connected to local or global inputs to allow for easy deployment of these systems.
AUDIO STREAMING SERVICES Users can stream curated content – either algorithmically or by humans – with all rights paid. One monthly payment and you are ready to go. Messaging and scheduling allow for nuanced content to be played throughout the day – maximizing effectiveness and minimizing worker frustration. STREAMING SERVICES. PG. 6
SEAMLESS INTEGRATION WITH CONTROL SYSTEMS Bluesound professional products are designed to be controlled by a wide variety of devices. Native BluOS allows for control via Mac/PC or iOS/ Android mobile devices. The Bluesound Professional CP100 provides a simple, elegant wall mounted control interface. Finally, Bluesound Professional products allow for flexible and powerful control from third party control systems, and interfaces exist for all of today’s market-leading systems. MULTI-ROOM CONNECTION AT YOUR FINGERTIPS BluOS is the operating system and audio management software that underpins Bluesound Professional units. BluOS allows you to easily access and stream lossless audio up to 24 bit/192kHz to every zone in your installation. Locate audio anywhere on your network or cloud audio service of choice (including those designed specifically for commercial use) and share it with any BluOS-enabled Bluesound Professional units in your installation. BluOS also allows for control of individual zones and hardware devices, as well as synchronized grouping into larger zones. PG. 7
Easily Create Branded Environments With hardware that supports nearly unlimited zones of audio and a natively-integrated commercially-licensed music streaming service in SoundMachine, Bluesound Professional makes easy work of creating branded environments for your clients. Add Audio Streaming to Existing or New Installations Bluesound Professional’s decentralized processing capabilities gives designers and installers maximum flexibility to add audio streaming to installations, whether existing or new. Plays Nicely with Others Standard rack sizes and a wide range of standard inputs and outputs means that installation is quick and simple. The ecosystem’s modular design allows it to work seamlessly as an audio system on its own, or with audio components from other brands. Easy to Configure Self-discovery makes set-up and configuration painless, as Bluesound Professional players placed onto the same network will find each other automatically. A few taps on the intuitive icons in the BluOS Controller app will group players to create zoned audio content and lock-out unauthorized users. Bluesound Professional offers a versatile way to incorporate streaming music into a commercial installation. A fusion of hardware and software, Bluesound Professional’s suite of streamers, amplifiers, speakers, controllers, and accessories bring easy-toinstall, expandable, and conflict-free networked audio to retail shops, restaurants, bars, gyms, and other hospitality use cases. Powered by the established BluOS multi-zone audio content management interface, Bluesound Professional is designed to have decentralized processing power so designers and integrators have maximum flexibility to add streaming to existing installations or to build anew. Audio streaming capabilities can be added to a system head using a Bluesound Professional streamer, regardless of which amplifiers are being used. Alternatively, Ethernet cables can be run to a Bluesound Professional speaker, which contains all the necessary processing power to stream audio content without changing the configuration of the system head.

Unlike other solutions in the market, Bluesound Professional products can be easily grandfathered into existing installations or designed and installed anew. For example, using the Bluesound Professional system, streaming can be incorporated into a new or existing installation in one of two ways: At the system head A Bluesound Professional streamer, like the B400S 4-Zone BluOS Network Streaming Player, can be added to the system head and connected to an existing distribution amplifier and speaker configuration. The streamer would be connected to the network and either via the BluOS Controller app or a Bluesound Professional hardware controller like the CP100, the system can then access a variety of streaming music options. At the end-point The decentralized way in which the Bluesound Professional products are designed means that without making changes to the system head, streaming music can be achieved with the addition of BluOS Enabled end points like theBSP125, a powered speaker that houses advanced processing capabilities. Simply run power and an ethernet connection to the speaker and through the BluOS Controller app or the CP100, the user can have full control of streamed audio content. This flexibility in system design gives commercial integrators the ability to optimize configurations for efficiency, regardless of use case.
