Background:
In Indiana, new transparency regulations required school districts to livestream boardroom meetings to the public. For many districts, this created an urgent need for a reliable, easy-to-use, and high-quality streaming solution—without overburdening already stretched IT teams or investing in expensive audio systems.
Challenge:
Many school boardrooms weren’t set up for public broadcasting. Districts needed a setup that:
- Captured clear audio of all participants.
- Was simple enough for non-technical staff to operate.
- Delivered professional, lag-free livestream audio.
- Could be installed quickly and with minimal training.
Solution:
Maconaquah School Corporation turned to the IPEVO Ensemble Set, a powerful audio set that includes 6 IPEVO VOCAL Wireless Speakerphones connecting wirelessly to a hub. This all-in-one audio solution checked every box—delivering high performance with minimal complexity.
One of the reason Maconaquah School Corporation chose IPEVO was if they had boardroom meetings at other schools or if they had to move to the auditorium, with this solution, they can just take the entire audio system in a carry bag and easily set up in any space.
Implementation:
According to the Tech Director at Maconaquah School Corporation:
“We needed something that worked out of the box—no firmware updates, no complex instructions. IPEVO’s Ensemble Set was truly plug-and-play.”
The IPEVO VOCALs and Vocal Hub captured clear, crisp audio—even in larger rooms or when speakers turned away from the microphone.
Maconaquah School Corporation implemented this into their learning course and had students figure out and set up the entire board room streaming system. They were able to easily plug-and-play everything and go live with minimal setup time.
Conclusion:
As transparency becomes more essential in education, the IPEVO Ensemble Set offers school districts a simple, affordable, and powerful tool to comply with livestreaming mandates—without the stress.
“So Long story short, I think this is the best solution out there, especially for the money.” - Tech Director of Maconaquah School Corporation, Chris Percival
