DFX installed a series of fully automated multimedia classrooms for William Patterson University.

Wayne, NJ

The project involved seven classrooms and one larger presentation hall. In each classroom we installed a podium equipped with a touch panel for instructors to control the projector and screen, as well as an input panel for laptop use.

The multimedia setup is fully controlled through a Crestron touch panel. Our programmers also created a customized graphic user interface (GUI) to match the William Paterson University’s logo and school colors. Our work was quick, clean, and thorough.

DFX absolutely exceeded our expectations. They have an excellent sales and technical staff, who provide prompt, reliable information and assistance. Great help, great work, great price. We couldn’t have asked for more!

Moorestown School District

DFX installed 40 multimedia classrooms throughout 5 different schools in the Moorestown school district.

Moorestown, NJ

We equipped these classrooms with projectors, speakers, and document cameras. Similar to our work in the Pinelands School District, the system supports plug & play and laptop input, making it easy for instructors and students to use.

Although the classrooms were in 5 separate locations, they still had to be streamlined. DFX installed the same system in five very different circumstances at each location. We were also responsible for providing electrical services, so we set up outlets in the ceilings for projectors as well as outlets around each classroom for the speakers.

DFX completed the work in just two weeks, even though school was in session and our technicians had to work second shift. The Moorestown School District was so happy with our work that they hired us to complete similar installations in another 30 classrooms in early 2011.

DFX absolutely exceeded our expectations. They have an excellent sales and technical staff, who provide prompt, reliable information and assistance. Great help, great work, great price. We couldn’t have asked for more!

Skylands Ice World

Skylands reached out to DFX because they wanted to increase revenue by adding a "Wow Factor" to the 120,000 square foot ice rink.

Specifically, our customers were looking to add lighting effects and improve sound quality to enhance their weekly Ice Jam events, as well as the local hockey Championship league games hosted at the rink. The challenge here was specifying gear that could withstand the extreme environment of such a large ice rink.

DFX wanted to incorporate as much as the existing equipment as possible in order to keep the cost of the project down. The facility was outfitted with high quality EAW MK5199e speakers; however, their drivers were blown, they were underpowered, and the placement was incorrect. We replaced and weather-treated the drivers, relocated the speakers with custom metal array brackets, and increased the amplification with QSC amplifiers. In addition to those updates, we repaired existing gear that needed service. We also added JBL ASB4128 subwoofers to increase the bass output which helps contribute to the “night club” mood they were striving for. We used Community Veris 8T’s to provide the audio to spectator seating areas. The entire audio system is processed with a BSS Soundweb London Blu processor, with several Blu-8 remotes placed throughout the facility for zone, volume, and source selection. There are separate zones for each of the two rinks, the upstairs cafe, the bleachers, and the lobby.

For lighting, we choose Elation Design Spot 575B fixtures, which provide the automated effects that our customers were looking for. They also provide the ability to add up to 7 custom gobos, which are used to display local hockey team logos during games. The fixtures are controlled by a user friendly AR-32RM DMX controller. A Look Unique 2 haze machine is used for haze effects.

We couldn’t be happier with the outcome of this installation. The owners were great to work with and they are thrilled with the new system as well. Not only did we deliver the “Wow Factor” as promised, but so far, they have seen a huge increase in revenue. Young customers have taken to Facebook to post about the exciting new facility and how it is the place to be on Friday nights!

In addition to providing Skylands with an amazing sound and automated lighting system, every six months we perform preventative maintenance visits under a service contract. These visits allow us to keep an eye on the equipment so that we can address any issues before they lead to system failure, which is not an option on Friday nights!

Leisuretowne Community

The Leisuretowne Community is very active, with many different types of events occurring in the community center, such as dance lessons, bingo, theater performances, corporate events, board meetings, and art classes.

DFX upgraded the Leisuretowne community center’s old Crestron system, which was not working properly. The Crestron programming needed significant updates and members of the community wanted the system to have better functionality.

DFX upgraded all of the Crestron programming and added some new features, such as a Crestron AM/FM tuner, ceiling speakers, and a high-quality camera to record performances on stage with zoom and focus control. Because the old sound output was distorted, we installed a much better Biamp Audio Flex audio processor. We installed our new equipment to work with the A/V and lighting equipment that was previously in place. Adding improvements to an already existing system helped keep the project within budget.

With our Crestron updates, the entire system worked seamlessly through automation and touch panel control. The old stage lights, mixing console, microphones, and new ceiling speakers all tied in to the automated system. We programmed convenient presets for the community members to use through the touch panel, such as AM/FM tuner presets for different stations and volumes, and audio processor presets for different rooms, volumes, and processing. The system has plug and play capability, and the password-protected touch panel is very user friendly, allowing the members of the Leisuretowne community to operate it with ease.
