Compact, programmable audio player provides flexible automated playback for commercial and public facilities

TASCAM Introduces the AP-10 2-Channel Announcement SD Player with External Control

 

TASCAM is pleased to announce the AP-10, a compact 2-Channel Announcement SD Player with External Control designed to provide flexible, automated audio playback for commercial facilities, theme parks, airports, offices, and other public environments. With support for GPIO and LAN-based Open Sound Control (OSC), the AP-10 seamlessly integrates with external control systems, sensors, timers, signage, and other equipment to trigger and automate audio playback.

AP-10

The AP-10 features five playback modes - Direct, Single, Interval, Binary, and Program. These individual modes accommodate a wide range of applications. Binary playback supports up to 250 audio files, making the AP-10 well suited for multilingual guidance, zone-specific announcements and large-scale messaging systems. Program playback allows audio to be triggered in a preset sequence for applications such as exhibition tours, work-procedure guidance, and scenario-based presentations. All modes allow audio to be triggered automatically through external devices, while manual start and stop functions are workable from the front panel of the unit.

TASCAM Playlist Editor

For convenient content preparation and detailed playback control tailored to any facility, the free TASCAM Playlist Editor software allows users to create and edit playlists even when offline. Each audio file can be configured with a wide range of settings including volume, playback intervals, trigger start delay, fade times, and much more. The AP-10 also supports remote control from tablets or PCs through OSC, allowing users to build and customize control surfaces with tools such as TouchOSC which enables integration with video and lighting equipment.

  • Flexible System Integration via GPIO
  • Remote Control via OSC

The AP-10 provides additional features for dependable, unattended operation. Power-on Play for automatic playback based on contact-input status at startup, Ducking function lowers external background music during announcements to improve clarity, and Dual-Mono operation which allows the left and right channels to function at separate outputs, enabling different audio programs to play from a single unit.

Built within a 1U half rack form factor, the AP-10's rugged metal chassis is designed for long-term operation. A protected SD card cover, Euroblock cable holder, and panel lock all provide additional safety, ensuring performance without accidental operation. The optional rack mount kit AK-RM05 and 1U rack-mountable shelf AK-RS1 provide additional solutions to installations where space is limited.
