Sound Modeling with MAPP XT Software
The MAPP XT predictions below are for a three-quarter thrust configuration of the audience seating. The vertical lines in several images indicate added aisleways, with seating then removed from those areas. The goal of this sound system was to ensure optimal coverage from each loudspeaker position. Since I was using Spacemap Go spatialization software to move sounds as needed, coverage of the audience areas from each loudspeaker system was essential. In these predictions, we look for minimal change in frequency color across the seating area, with red and orange indicating the ideal decibel coverage.
Optimal sound coverage for the entire audience area was provided by two d&b Q10 loudspeakers from the upstage center system.
Optimal sound coverage behind each audience area was provided by six Meyer MM4 loudspeakers, with two covering each section to create the surround system around the audience.
Optimal sound coverage for the entire audience area was provided by two Meyer UPJ-1P loudspeakers from upstage L/R system.

Optimal sound coverage from the downstage center thrust system was provided by three Meyer UPJ-1P loudspeakers, each aimed at a different audience area.
