SNAP ONE

WE ARE SNAP ONE

It’s been almost a year since SnapAV + Control4 rebranded as Snap One. Here Mark Reynolds, Vice President & General Manager EMEA for Snap One, shares brand and product updates for the year ahead as unveiled at the recent Snap One Virtual Partner Summit.

It’s an exciting time for Snap One – we are approaching one year since we rebranded and there are a series of positive developments and innovations ahead for our partners. Behind the scenes, Snap One has been continually enhancing our solutions, and services, with a goal to become the integrator’s most valued and trusted partner on every installation. At Snap One, we are committed to keeping things simple for our partners.

It’s a refreshing vision that saves time, cost and hassle in product choice and system design, installation, integration and after-care. At our recent Virtual Partner Summit, we unveiled an array of products across several categories that further our mission to serve as the onestop supplier that our partners can depend on worldwide.

Our entire product ecosystem is anchored on two award-winning technology platforms, Control4 Smart Home OS 3 and OvrC Remote Management. These platforms are at the forefront of our investment and innovation plans, providing a strong base on which to build brilliant end-to-end control projects.

Control4 Smart Home OS 3 is the operating system for smart homes, designed to unify hundreds of connected devices within the home into one intuitive, user-friendly experience. Meanwhile, OvrC is our free cloudbased remote management platform designed exclusively for professionals.

Snap One solutions also encompass leading brands in Networking & Remote Management, Lighting, Speakers, Amplifiers, Multi-Room Audio, Surveillance, Power and Surge, Film Screens, Racks, Mounts, Cables Connectors and Wiring.

WE’RE IN CONTROL

Control4 OS 3.3.0 has seen major improvements as we provide more and more personalised experiences for customers, as well as create the features and functions that will come to define the next generation of control.

We have recently expanded the entertainment capabilities of the Control4 Platform with a suite of customisable features. Ryff is the new name for our high-resolution native streaming audio platform within Control4 and provides the highest in audio quality, decoding at up to 192kHz sample rate, at full 24 bit-depth, and includes MQA support among other features.

Coming soon is a brand-new line of Control4 CORE Series Controllers that boast faster processors, more zones of built-in audio, higher quality Digital to Analogue Converters, and a 4K on-screen user interface. The new CORE series will include three versions for different sized projects that require varying features and functionalities.

REMOTE MANAGEMENT & NETWORKING

OvrC continues to support our networking brands - Araknis and Pakedge - and we’ve enriched its feature-set to make the ecosystem better, faster, and more reliable. Now, every Control4 OS3 system can be remotely managed using OvrC, without the need for any additional hardware.

Today, OvrC includes one of the largest ecosystems of integrated products from both Snap One and leading third-party manufacturers.

LIGHTING

Partners can now create colour pre-sets that customers can personalise and include lighting colour as an element of lighting scenes and programming.

The latest Control4 software, OS 3.3.0, features a host of new capabilities including a highly anticipated native lighting colour wheel UI, for fast and intuitive control of tuneable white and colour lighting.

Anchored on Control4 and remotely managed through OvrC, our lighting innovations will grow throughout 2022 and beyond to grow your business opportunities!

SPEAKERS, AMPLIFIERS AND MULTI-ROOM AUDIO

We’re also raising the bar for integrators with our two core audio brands, Episode and Triad. Building on the extensive range of architectural and outdoor solutions now available from the Episode brand, we’ve released a new Episode 2.1 Active Soundbar and Episode Wireless Subwoofer Bundle.

The active soundbar includes optical, analogue, and HDMI inputs, and comes prepaired to the soundbar for hassle-free installation. Bluetooth is built-in and the IR remote makes control a breeze. As for the 8” down-firing Wireless Subwoofer, it is powered by a built-in 80-watt amplifier and can be placed anywhere within 30 feet of the soundbar for maximum installation flexibility.

Our new Triad PDX Architectural speakers provide incredible audio performance and simple, efficient installation. New PushLock technology, adopted from our Episode brand, allows partners to install and remove these loudspeakers quickly and easily, and even change the motor unit without removing the cradle from the ceiling. The premium PDX series will include eight in-ceiling speakers and three inwall speakers in three differ4 premium listening experience for clients and accessed easily using OvrC for aftercare and maintenance.

POWER MANAGEMENT

Big news for 2022! Snap One is introducing Wattbox to the international market with an adapted version of its Wattbox 800 Series and 250l Wi-Fi solution. Power conditioning and surge protection is a growing requirement to protect products and the quality and reliability of installations.

By bringing our critical Wattbox power management offering to partners, we can add further value to the Snap One brand offering, making the integration experience of this technology easier and better over the Control4 platform and increasing the functionality of OvrC remote monitoring in this area.

Watch this space for more news on Wattbox, coming soon.

THE FUTURE’S LOOKING BRIGHT

As well as the exciting product developments coming in 2022, we’ll continue to offer exceptional support to our partners, helping their businesses grow and prosper in the years ahead.

Our new, consolidated Partner Rewards programme means partners can now earn points for every purchase made across all Snap One categories. The programme features five levels and includes incredible benefits, including progressively larger rebates, free shipping, expedited product replacement, premium tech support and even access to exclusive Partner events.

With our unwavering commitment to product innovation and investment, with Control4 and OvrC at the core, we’re looking forward to helping our partners grow their business and inspire their clients with more and more great technology installations.
