WPL USER GUIDE V1.0

WPL USER GUIDE

The 2D slice is either drawn from scratch or you can also import a shell drawing from a previous project if you are working in a venue you 
have visited previously. The slice is a side view of the venue. It is drawn anticlockwise starting at the back of the stage and clicking to 
define the position of vertices that define all of the planes within the venue. This doesn’t have to be done accurately as you can refine the 
precise position of the points working from architects’ drawings or measurements you have taken yourself. The array is positioned and the 
audience region specified from start to finish.

The coverage tab shows your 2D model with the planes refined into three types; audience in green, non-audience in red and hard avoid 
in blue. Each dot represents a virtual microphone position at which the software will take response measurements using the integral 
computer model. The dots in the critical audience region are closer together for greater accuracy and are spaced closer together at the 
start of the audience region to mirror how each region is covered by sections of the array. The audience offset can be edited – standing, 
sitting or a custom offset – and each region can be edited, perhaps changing a section under a balcony from audience to non-audience for 
example. The SPL profile can be modified and the environmental conditions entered to allow optimisation to compensate for air absorption, 
particularly critical for outdoor events.
