15 : 5.Purposed workflow
In order to optimize the performance of the sound re-
inforcement system, the X Series provides a loudspeaker
management system that allows complete control over the
performance of the loudspeakers conguration.
Once the loudspeaker layout has been dened, we
suggest a bottom-up conguration procedure that starts
from the conguration of the transducers layout and raises
toward the input selection and the denition of the backup
policy.
Shortly, the main steps to follow are:
1. Load the loudspeaker presets or manually congure
the loudspeaker layout (grouping output channels,
crossovering, limiting, speaker processing, etc.).
2. Dene the routing path and the levels of the signals
from the input channels to the active output channels
(matrix).
3. Select the signal source from the input connections
and dene the backup policy (input source selection).
15 : 5.1. Loudspeaker layout and output processing
X Series allows ne granularity in managing limiters, fre-
quency response, gain, polarity, etc. of each way of a multy-
way loudspeaker through the output processing stage;
furthermore, when a group of ways are grouped by means
of the speaker routing stage, the X Series provides a tool for
tuning the behavior of the entire multi-way loudspeaker via
the speaker equalization stage.
Once the loudspeaker layout has been dened by
means of the speaker routing tool, the matrix will show only
the actual loudspeakers layout allowing to proper mix and
route the input signal. For example, stating the following
conguration for a X8 (ref. FIGURE 43):
f one three-way loudspeaker - L
f one three-way loudspeaker - R
f one biamp subwoofer
by means of the the speaker routing tool you can group
channel output as follow:
