Lake Preset Overlays and Application Notes
TLX Series preset modules for Lake LM series controllers and Lab Gruppen / Lake DSP amplifiers (PLM+, D Series L) include preset overlays to assist with system
tuning and optimisation. Four preset overlays are available: 1) Array Size Compensation; 2) Band Level EQ (BLEQ); 3) Long Throw (LT); 4) Extra Long Throw (XLT). Note:
bypassing both LT and XLT overlays provides Short Throw (ST) mode.
OVERLAY DESCRIPTION
OVERLAY
Long Throw Mode
is intended for medium- to long-throw applications and
is suitable for small to medium sized arrays consisting of 4-8 TLX43 or TLX84
enclosures. The 6 dB low-frequency shelving characteristic offsets LF/MF array
coupling and high-frequency shelving pre-emphasis compensates for air
absorption over typical throw distances for nominally focused arrays with equal
site angle impact spacing over the desired audience coverage area. Additional
equalization above 16 kHz optimizes system gain structure while maximizing
overall A-weighted SPL output.
Extra Long Throw Mode
is intended for medium-, long-, or extra-throw
applications and is suitable for medium to large sized arrays consisting of more
than 8 TLX43 or TLX84 enclosures. The 6 dB low-frequency shelving offsets LF/
MF array coupling and high-frequency shelving pre-emphasis compensates
for air absorption over typical throw distances for nominally focused arrays
with equal site angle impact spacing over the desired audience coverage area.
Additional HF shelving equalization above 16 kHz optimizes high frequency
extension.
Short Throw Mode
has nominally-flat low and high frequency response and
is suitable for smaller arrays consisting of 1-3 TLX43 or TLX84 enclosures. Short
throw applications include: distributed front fill, stacked side fill for stage
monitoring or stacked theatre / club systems intended for short throw front-of-
house sound reinforcement.
Suspended Arrays
Safety Warning:
Only authorised and certified personnel shall design and install suspended configurations, following the instructions and procedures
in the rigging manuals supplied with the TLX43-FLB and TLX84-FLB flybars or downloaded from turbosound.com. Failure to follow these instructions may lead
to death or permanent injury.
Example showing an array of 8 TLX43
loudspeakers with the TLX43-FLB flybar
attached on the top.
Example showing an array of 2 TLX212L
subwoofers with the TLX43-FLB flybar
attached on the top.
Example showing a mixed array with 1
TLX212L subwoofer, 4 TLX43 loudspeakers
and 2 TLX43-FLB flybars.
The TLX215L and TLX84 loudspeakers can be also be suspended in similar configurations, except only the top flybar is required for the mixed array.
For maximum array sizes, weights and working load limits, please consult the TLX43-FLB or TLX84-FLB rigging manual.
Ground Stacking
Safety Warning:
Only authorised personnel shall design and rig the ground stacked configuration, following the instructions and procedures in the
manual supplied with the flybars or downloaded from turbosound.com. Failure to follow these instructions may lead to death or permanent injury.
The TLX212L and TLX43 loudspeakers can be configured in a mixed-array ground stack, with the
TLX212L subwoofer on the ground or stage, the TLX43-FLB flybar attached on top, and the TLX43
mid/top cabinets attached to the flybar.
The TLX215L and TLX84 loudspeakers can be configured in a ground stack with the TLX215L
subwoofer on the ground or stage, and the TLX84 mid/top cabinets mounted directly above it. No
flybar is required for this ground stack.
