Abstract
A cognitive loudspeaker system includes a control station (CS) that broadcasts clock control messages and separate playback messages to a plurality of sound production stations (SPSs). The clock control messages are generated in response to a CS clock signal. Each SPS generates a corresponding local conductor clock signal in response to the received control clock messages and a local SPS clock signal, such that all of the local conductor clock signals are synchronized. Each SPS also generates local digital playback samples in response to the received playback messages. The local digital playback samples are written to an output buffer in response to the local SPS clock signal, and are read from the output buffer in response to the local conductor clock signal.
