Making Shure MX910 Work with Q-Sys Teams Room Sample Config

I have an MS Teams demo room here and finished making a pair of QSC cameras work using the "Just Follow Me" feature. The original config is with the Sennheiser TCC2 and 20x60 and a 12x72 cams, but all of this is connected the a Microsoft Teams Room setup running on a Lenovo PC etc. So I'm just adding the QSC and MICs to a regular MTR.

​

This is all great, but I would rather use the Shure MX910 over the TCC2. I have the 910 configured in Dante, and I have the setup in Q-Sys switched to a discrete MIC setup. The MIC functions for calls and I can see the lobes activate etc. but that's where I am stuck.

​

My issue is that I can't get in to the Camera Preset Recall to set camera positions for the lobes. The Sample Config template wants me to input the TCC2 IP and replacing it with that of the 910 shows an error and keeps the Preset Recall plugin configs greyed out. Anyone have experience with using Q-Sys in combination with MTR setups and Shure?

Have you approached Qsys support? Qsys is certified with MTR - they should be able to help you.

I did and my disty, turns out there was an issue with the side chain filter on the mixer. I just wondered if anyone else had encountered this to see how they solved it to speed things up. There is actually an update coming to the Camera Preset Recall plugin Friday to fix some things apparently. Not just because of this, just the regular updates and this will be included.

Got it working once they sorted that.

Wow, when did they start spelling QSC with a C and I and S and C and O?

In case you missed it, the latest version of the Automated Camera Preset Recall plugin (v2.2, but any since v2.0) supports the use of discrete audio signals, as well as the telemetry option that is the basis of the TCC2 mode. You’d need to use the discrete mode for the MXA910 as it doesn’t output telemetry, as well as separate audio lobes to derive a location within a room.

It works by pointing the plugin at a Gating Auto-mixer for input signal detection/selection, and then assigning a camera and associated preset to each audio zone.

Update your plugin from Asset Manager, and then drop it in, and in its component properties, change mode from “TCC2” to “discrete”.

This video goes all of the new features and it’s use:

Also includes “broadcast switching”, which enables you to use a couple of cameras in primary and secondary configuration for seamless switching between active talkers - think Cisco Speakertrack, but scalable.
