Eastern Acoustic Works released DSAPilot Version 1.2 software for its Digitally Steerable Array (DSA) Series loudspeaker system. DSAPilot, which is available as a free download from www.eaw.com, provides a simple control interface to adjust the vertical coverage pattern of up to 32 DSA loudspeakers.
The new functionality available in DSAPilot V. 1.2 includes SPL mapping on listener area; listener area is shown onscreen by a thick bar that uses colors to indicate the SPL at any point. Other features include moving the cursor over the bar opens a window that indicates the predicted SPL value at that point; draggable room definition; start, stop and inflection points for the listening area can all be entered numerically or by clicking and dragging the mouse to select the desired value; a selectable amplifier shutdown timer; and each DSA cluster has 16 channels of amplification and 16 channels of DSP that are controlled by the DSAPilot software.
