ICLive X Beam steering
Once added to the Active Zone single ICLive X loudspeakers
or Array Groups can be beam steered.
To begin beam steering, click on the Beam icon in the
control panel for the loudspeaker or array to be steered. The
Beam Steering window will open.
Enter the room parameters for simulation.
• On the left, enter the X and Y coordinates for the array.
The Y coordinate is the distance from the finish floor to
the
bottom
of the array. The X coordinate is normally
left at 0, but can be set to other references if needed.
• Audience area coordinates are entered referenced to
the finish floor level. The ear height simulation plane is
then added automatically. The ear height is selectable
for seated or standing audiences, or a custom value can
be entered if desired.
U.R.G.O Beam Steering
The ICLive X Series uses a new beam-steering algorithm
developed specifically for it called U.R.G.O for UniBeam
Room Geometry Optimization.
U.R.G.O. simplifies the beam steering process, and delivers
consistent results with a simplified workflow.
U.R.G.O. technology creates an asymmetrical lobe of cover-
age based on the opening angle required for optimal cover-
age. These opening angles are based on standard mounting
heights for Iconyx and IC-Live loudspeakers, taken from
over a decade of experience with steerable sound systems.
