Which URC module should I use?
The CasaTunes music server can be configured as a music streamer, or as part of a complete music system.
Music Streamers - If you have previously used audio streamers in your projects, this is the mode you are probably familiar with. In this mode, each audio stream is an independent music player that can play music from internet music services, like Spotify, from local music stored on a PC, or from NAS device on the local network, or a stream from an iOS device via AirPlay.
A music streamer has no switching, volume or power control, just pure, independent streams coming out of the music server at pre-amp levels.
For music streamers use the CasaTunes Streamer Module for URC.
Music Systems - When using your music server as part of a CasaTunes music system, your music server controls and supply streams to the CasaTunes 6X6 matrix amplifier, as well as other third party audio distribution systems, such as those from Audio Authority, Channel Vision, Leviton, NuVo, RTI, Russound, SpeakerCraft, and Vanco.
Use the System Module and once you Accelerate, the combination of CasaTunes and the CasaTunes or third party audio distribution system act as a complete self-contained music system.
You can also use the System Module with our legacy CasaTunes CT Systems. These systems behave like regular CasaTunes music systems, but uses software to implement switching. With CasaTunes CT Systems, switching between internal streams and external outputs is built right into the music server software.
For music systems use the CasaTunes System Module for URC.
Every stream is a complete Music Player, offering endless music, and a powerful, but simple interface.
Use the lower cost CasaTunes CT-1 or CT-2 to provide one or two streams, or the more robust CasaTunes CT-3 and CT-4, for three or four independent streams, respectively.
Easily change what you are listening to by browsing through your music collection, searching for a specific artist or song, or clicking on a different song in your currently playing list.
Using our CasaTunes Air technology you can stream music from any music App on iOS devices to any stream.
Regardless of which CasaTunes Hardware Matrix Music System or CasaTunes Software Matrix Music System you are using, the System Module makes it easy to integrate with URC. When done, you have the full functionality of the Streaming Module, plus:.
