RIP Old School Video Projection

Bring Dazzling, High-Resolution Video to Your Audience

Are you interested in the largest, brightest, and most reliable video wall technology? You’re not alone. Nationwide, video wall installations have increased significantly in recent years. Video walls are projected to reach nearly 14 million by 2027. 

And it’s not hard to see why! High-resolution video walls offer beautiful, eye-catching displays for everything from performances and religious services to marketing. Universities, hospitals, airports, public spaces, houses of worship—all types of organizations can use LED wall panels to share their messaging and brand imagery. 

So, how do you install video walls? Learn all about LED wall panel installations in our handy guide below.

How We Build LED Walls 

Installing a video wall requires the following essential components: LED wall panels, mounting brackets, power cables, data cables, and an LED video processor. Walls can be suspended or mounted to a wall via a frame. New technology eliminates the need for frames, creating a smooth, seamless image that hugs the wall closely.  If you don’t want to see your LED wall until you need it, we have solutions that drop down from the ceiling like a video projection screen!

Once the LED wall is in place, we program the screen’s layout through the video processor. This is where we decide how you’d like to display content and which media sources feed the wall. 

A common obstacle in LED wall installations is connecting to the video processor, which may be in a utility rack or room far away. We run data cabling or use existing fiber infrastructure to connect to the processor and content management system. 

Color and Brightness Calibration 

All visual displays come with factory settings but can drift and become off-sync over time. Video walls can appear distorted when certain panels no longer match color or brightness. This becomes painfully obvious when adjacent panels no longer match and don’t form a cohesive image. 

This is why calibration is essential for a perfect video wall installation. Once we’ve calibrated all your LED panels, you can create wall-sized visuals without any noticeable inconsistencies or seams. 

How You’ll Update Content 

A video wall can look incredible, but if updating visuals is inconvenient, it won’t help your business. Luckily, we can integrate your LED video processor with a cloud-based content management system that lets you remotely change and swap visuals from any computer. When you need to update videos, images, slideshows, or text, you can update multiple video displays in seconds. 

Ready for LED Video Walls? 

If your organization is interested in an LED wall, Advanced Sound & Communication can help. We install custom LED displays and control systems that make it easy for your staff to manage your video content.

Why Your Wireless Systems No Longer Work

Click Here To Read The FCC History of Wireless Devices

If you don’t want to read the history of how and why we got to where we are today, know that we have a very small amount of air space to operate our wireless microphones, monitors, etc. We have to work around the sources causing radio interference outside and inside. Most people don’t know wireless systems compete for space with non-audio wireless equipment. In fact, wireless systems compete with things that aren’t audio-related at all. LED lighting, LED video walls, video displays and other non-audio components create interference.

Our customers benefit from our on-site service. We scan sites to know all of the interference, inside and out, BEFORE making recommendations for purchase. Some mail-order suppliers will reference online resources like this one from Shure. Frequency finders show how many simultaneous units can be used in each zip code. While these resources show what is possible in a perfect world, they do NOT show local users and the interference they may generate.

Every system we design and install has filters to reduce the interference caused without and within the four walls. Antennae are explicitly selected for the environment. The cables, length, and amplifiers are chosen to minimize noise and maximize reception. Antenna distributors and combiners ensure each receiver receives the strongest, cleanest signal from one central antenna.

We receive calls weekly from wireless users who have lost all functions of their illegal systems and don’t know why. They can’t understand why wireless can’t be turned on and left unchanged for decades without issue. Those days are over! Wireless is no longer a set-and-forget thing. It should not be considered reliable without active management. Active management requires learning to scan, choreograph frequently, and test systems to compensate for internal and external changes.
