DISTANCE EQCOMPENSATION OVERLAY
All speakers are aected by air loss over distance; this set
of overlays is in increments of 3 m, and ensures a balanced
high frequency response over distance. Peaking or Bell
lters are used to keep headroom in the high frequency
band rather than high shelf lters which unnecessarily
use up headroom for frequency which will not travel over
fardistances.
Rules of AirEQ:
DO NOT INSERT MORE THAN 1 FILTER AT THE SAMETIME.
FOR INTERMEDIATE DISTANCES, USE THE CLOSEST
OVERLAYAVAILABLE
AirEQ overlays are availableat: 9 m, 12 m, 15 m, 18 m, 21 m,
24 m, 27 m, 40 m, 50 m, and + 50m
Below are some examples of how the useful frequency and
gain changes overdistance:
AirEQ 12 m
AirEQ 15 m
AirEQ 18 m
AirEQ 21 m
Two elements per amplifier DSP module block
AirEQ12 m – For elements within an array aimed at
12 mdistance
AirEQ15 m – For elements within an array aimed at
15 mdistance
AirEQ18 m – For elements within an array aimed at
18 mdistance
AirEQ21 m – For elements within an array aimed at
21mdistance
EQ STRATEGY: Considerations for consistant frequency response in the soundeld
Flat arrays (minimium inter-element angle between
elements) will have an increase in the mid frequency band
typically between 630 Hz -2kHz
Flat Array
Low Frequencies Mid Frequencies
Boost in Mid Energy
due to physical coupling
Flat Array Frequency Response
High Frequencies
Curved array (inter-element angle used between elements)
will have decrease in the mid frequency band typically
between 630 Hz -2kHz
Curved Array
Low Frequencies Mid Frequencies
Cut in Mid Energy
due to physical de-coupling
Curved Array Frequency Response
High Frequencies
It is recommended that you split the EQ strategy to suit
the mechanical curvature of the array, to gain consistant
frequency response.
Example: Here we have a typical J curved array of 8
MV210-HC elements – as we have 2 MV210-HC elements
per Lake DSP module, it gives 4 discrete ZONEs that can have
small adjustments in the mid band area that is aected
by the mechanical aiming of the array causing coupling
andde-coupling.
Using one of the many industry-standard measurement
software systems, reference microphones and sound-cards,
nd the mid range frequency aected, and adjust each zone
for consistant frequency response between zones / sound
eldarea.
Lake software oers integration to many of these
software systems, further information can be found at
