How to resolve AdBlock issue? RTI Sonos Integration
RTI, a manufacturer of control and automation solutions, today announced the release of a new Sonos integration that delivers enhanced search capabilities, transforming how users discover and enjoy music through RTI control systems. Built with Sonos’ updated search API, the integration is verified by the Works with Sonos program, ensuring seamless compatibility for installers and end customers alike.
“The native search functionality, playlist support, home theater control, and other new features further elevate the Sonos experience within the RTI control environment,” said RTI Product Director Neal Ellsworth. “This enables integrators to build music systems fully tailored to their clients’ needs, while managed from the same intuitive interface from which they control their lighting, shades, climate, security, and other smart home features.”
The updated RTI driver introduces native search functionality for Sonos S2 devices, enabling users to quickly find albums, songs, and stations directly from their RTI touchscreen or mobile app, simplifying navigation and accelerating access to preferred content from compatible music service partners. Users can also seamlessly view and launch recently played content across supported services, improving the convenience and continuity of their listening experience. Enhanced playlist support includes viewing and starting playlists directly from RTI interfaces.
The RTI driver features modernized OAuth authentication for secure, streamlined user authentication with third-party music services, improving compatibility and long-term platform support for all Sonos devices. Comprehensive home theater control includes full support for Sonos features - all accessible via events, variables, and custom commands. This includes swapping the TV audio from a compatible Sonos soundbar to Sonos Ace, Night Sound which reduces the intensity of loud effects and increases the level of quieter effects for late-night viewing, and Speech Enhancement which provides four levels of control that let users adjust dialogue clarity to match their needs.
Within the RTI control system, Sonos music can be synchronized with lights, shading and more to deliver a more cohesive, immersive experience that complements the unique lifestyle of each end-user. These scenes can be applied across all interfaces of an RTI system, extending the ability to effortlessly stream Sonos music throughout the entire home. The enhanced RTI driver is available now for download through the award-winning RTI Integration Designer software.
Since 1992, RTI has been at the forefront of innovation in control and automation, transforming spaces into intelligent environments that enhance lifestyle and streamline operations. The comprehensive suite of products and award-winning support services empower integrators to craft personalized and intuitive control experiences optimized for every project.
