Meyer Sound galileo 616 Boating Equipment User Manual


 
M Series Line Array Correction
Array correction applies an EQ curve that is dependent on both the loudspeaker model and the
number of loudspeakers in the line array. As line arrays become longer they also become more
directional in the lower frequencies. Array correction controls this low- and mid-low frequency
emphasis. Up to eight unique configurations (type and size) of Meyer Sound M Series arrays
can be controlled by a single Galileo 616.
NOTE: Bypassed buttons in the Output Processing pages do not affect array correction.
Configuring M Series Array Correction
This setting assumes the output channel(s) on the Galileo 616 unit are connected to a Meyer
Sound M Series curvilinear or line array. Array Correction allows you to assign pre-configured
EQ correction to the channels to compensate for low-frequency build-up related to the length
of the array.
1.
Select the [Galileo Unit] > Settings > Array Correction page.
2.
Provide an identifying name for the array and change its status to Enabled.
3.
From the Type selector, select one of the Meyer Sound M Series line array systems: M1D,
M2D, MILO®, M3D®, Mica, or M'elodie.
4.
In the Size box, or using the rotary encoder beside it, set the number of cabinets in the
line array. An array may have up to twenty-four cabinets.
By selecting Type and Size, the appropriate equalization curve is ready for use with output
channels.
NOTE: While only a single row needs to be defined for each unique (type and size) array
configuration, it is often conceptually easier to create an entry for each line array
separately. The end result is the same, but the naming and visual separation of channels
can help illustrate important information as you continue to develop snapshots.
If all your line arrays are identical in type and size, you can define a single instance of
that array and assign all appropriate output channels to it.
