• Placing the speakers automatically (Enclosure type - Auto layout)

Y-S

can automatically place speakers in the room. The appropriate speaker types for the configuration of the room, such as the

surface area of the audience area, and the ratio of its width and length, can be selected automatically. Click in

Speaker List or select [Add New Array (N)] from the [Array (A)] menu to open the Add Speakers window. Select “Enclosure

type - Auto layout” from the list box. Select “System Type” and ceiling height and click to begin calculations and

configure the system composition. Note that auto layout only takes the 1st floor into consideration; 2nd and higher floors are not

taken into consideration. When calculations are complete, Y-S

displays a message prompting you to carry out auto tuning. Click

to begin auto tuning. Click to finish without auto tuning. See chapter 5 for details about auto tuning.

Yo u cannot use “Auto layout” in “SPL Mode” when Y-S

displaying a sound pressure distribution. Always switch to “Array

Mode” or “Single Mode” before using this function. Additionally, “Auto layout” deletes any existing speaker arrays that have

already been placed and places new speaker arrays. Speakers placed suing the “Distributed” function are not deleted. This is

useful in instances such as when you want to replace speakers on a stage or proscenium but retain speakers installed in the

ceiling. The “Enclosure type - Auto layout” function does not execute for circular rooms or rooms that are too large, small, wide,

or narrow. In such cases Y-S

displays an error message. Please use the “Enclosure type - Manual layout” function to position

speakers.

System Type

Select the speaker system type from the list box (Center, Center, LR, LCR, Side, Center + Side).

Ceiling Height

Enter the estimated ceiling height of the room. Y-S

decides the array height referring to this parameter. The speaker arrays are

always set below the ceiling height. Note that Y-S

does not estimate the reflection from the ceiling in the calculation.

Setting methods

The “Auto layout” function selects speakers that are appropriate for the shape, floor area, and proportions of the room. It also

takes the ceiling height you have entered into account when positioning speakers (Center, Center + Side, Side).The default angle

settings are; Pan and Rot: 0°, Tilt: 30, Splay Angle: minimum.
