Sound on your screens

FRAMEN screens play muted by default. If you want in-venue music, use a separate audio system.

Use-case

Screens play muted — semi-public venues rarely need audio, and mixing screen audio with ambient music creates conflict. This article covers your options for music and how to design content that works silent.


​

Music in your venue

If you want to play music, run it through a separate audio system — not the same speakers as your FRAMEN screens.

Why separate systems:

  1. Interference — simultaneous audio from the screen and an external source conflict and degrade both.

  2. Control — you can change music volume, tracks, or mood without touching screen content.

Good to know

  • Design content muted — any content you upload should work fully muted. Rely on strong visuals, captions, and on-screen text instead of voiceover.

  • Need audio for your venue? — for locations where silent playback genuinely reduces impact (e.g. loud public spaces), contact our team to assess options.
