真力SpeakerAngle适用于iOS的应用程序

Amongst the most renowned of audio monitor manufacturers, Genelec have created an innovative iOS app to help all studio musicians. Rory Dow tests out SpeakAngle for iPhone.  

真力是在世界上最重要的音频显示器制造商之一。他们刚刚宣布推出的SpeakerAngle ,为iOS设备的应用程序,声称自己是第一个数字的工具,它允许任何人,以正确的设定和匹配钓鱼(“脚趾”)的立体声和7.1环绕声扬声器。让我们一探究竟。

在心脏中,SpeakerAngle是一个简单的应用程序。它使用内置的陀螺仪传感器的iDevices测量角度。

SpeakerAngle takes less than five minutes to use and could drastically improve your stereo imaging.

SpeakerAngle整个过程不到五分钟使用,可以大大提高您的立体成像。


这里是基本的使用SpeakerAngle立体声设置的说明。应用程序假定音箱的距离相等,聆听位置与他们身后的墙上。

  1. Position both speakers at “zero-axis” (facing directly ahead - not angled)
  2. Place the iPhone (or iPad) on top of the left speaker and align the edges of the speaker and iDevice.
  3. Touch the left speaker in the app and “zero” it. This lets the app know that your speaker is at zero-axis.
  4. Physically rotate the speaker inwards whilst the iDevice sits on top. The speakers in the app will rotate too. When the speaker is in, the “industry recommended zone” (from 20 to 45 degrees) the app will alert you.
  5. Repeat for the right speaker. The app will alert you when both speakers are at the same angle.


从理论上讲,如果两个扬声器是相同的距离对方,因为他们是从监听器(想想一个等边三角形的3个点),30度的角度,将提供最佳的立体成像。

Setting up a 7.1 surround system is a similar process, just with more speakers.

设置了一个7.1环绕声系统是一个类似的过程,只是用多个扬声器。


在实践

我试图SpeakerAngle使用上述步骤设置我的两个扬声器,在整整30度角。它立即变得明显,我坐得靠近我的扬声器,即。两个扬声器之间的距离大于我和扬声器之间的距离。这是显而易见的,因为两个扬声器指向在聆听位置的地方在我身后。

作为一个结果,我略微向内移动每个扬声器相向而行,不改变角度,但改变它们之间的距离,以创建一个等边三角形。扬声器的角度为30度,但现在彼此更加接近,因此我的听音位置是正确的。


结论

对于大多数人来说,他们的发言是坐在聆听位置的情况下,钓鱼,直到他们直接面对聆听位置的扬声器。在大多数情况下,这是很好的,但SpeakerAngle可以协助在这个过程中,通过迅速地与任一的距离或角度的突出问题。

并没有做任何事情SpeakerAngle技术性很强的,世界上没有真正的巫术魔法,在监测位置正确,但整个过程只需不到5分钟(也许是10,如果你有阅读的说明),可以帮助你提高你的设置。为99美分,很难不推荐它。

SpeakerAngle是兼容iPhone 4和iPad 2和后来的iPod Touch第四代及以后。 现在可以在iTunes的应用程序商店的价格仅为99美分。

Bought this app months ago and can't say enough good things about it. It prevents embarrassing DIY techniques for speaker angling that I have tried to implement and failed miserably. At .99, it's a steal.
