 Introduction

Introduction
The L-Acoustics amplied controllers are delivered with onboard rmware and preset library.
Presets of the onboard library can be loaded from the front panel of the amplied controller, or from the
LA Network Manager software application, a management tool dedicated to the remote control and monitoring of a
network of L-Acoustics amplied controllers.
LA Network Manager must be used for updating rmware on L-Acoustics amplied controllers. An up-to-date preset
library is automatically installed with the rmware. Check the L-Acoustics website for the latest version of software,
rmware and libraries.
Operating L-Acoustics amplied controllers
Refer to the LA4, LA4X, LA8, LA12X, LA-RAK and LA-RAK II user manuals.
Installing LA Network Manager
Download the LA amplied controller release pack and refer to the Readme le.
Updating rmware on an L-Acoustics amplied controller
Refer to the LA Network Manager video tutorial, accessible from the Help menu of the software.
This version of the preset guide describes the LA4, LA4X, LA8 and LA12X preset libraries version 5.6(.5).

Preset design

Preset design
Gain structure

The gains of all L-Acoustics factory presets are calibrated with a reference pink noise signal, representative of most
demanding musical programs. The reference input level is 0 dBu (with analog audio source) or -22 dBFS (with digital
audio source).
When feeding L-Acoustics amplied controllers at this input level, L-Acoustics loudspeaker enclosures provide the sound
engineer with 8 dB of headroom, except for smaller formats calibrated for 4 dB of headroom (MTD108a, 5XT, X8, 8XT,
Kiva, Kilo).
This gain structure helps managing power resources of L-Acoustics systems when using different enclosures of the same
format. With default output gain settings (0 dB), all enclosures reach their limits for the same program level. Apply a gain
adjustment of -4 dB for smaller format enclosures when used along with bigger format L-Acoustics enclosures.
Headroom for SB15m
SB15m presets [SB15_100] and [SB15_100_C] have 8 dB of headroom from preset library version 5.6(.5).
4 dB of headroom are provided when using presets from earlier versions and preset [KIVA_SB15].

Electro-acoustic coupling

Each recommended loudspeaker conguration provides a coherent sound source, by implementing a loudspeaker system
in a specic deployment pattern and with dened factory presets.
L-Acoustics factory presets ensure the coupling between the different transducer sections, whether it is internal coupling as
in active loudspeaker enclosures, or external coupling as when several loudspeaker enclosures are combined.
Users can adjust preset parameters on top of factory settings and for predened channel sets.
Channel sets have been dened for the presets dedicated to active loudspeaker enclosures and to some specic
loudspeaker congurations. A channel set maintains a coherent coupling by linking several output channels for the setting
of routing, gain and delay parameters. For example, [LF HF] is a channel set for 2-way loudspeaker enclosure presets,
and [SR SB SB SB] is a channel set for cardioid subwoofer presets.
The Presets Guide describes the recommended loudspeaker congurations for each system, with the corresponding
factory presets and the main resulting acoustic properties.
When applicable, refer to the user manual of the related system for the limit between coupled and separated subwoofers.
For some loudspeaker enclosure combinations, it is necessary to adjust the delay values for time-alignment. Refer to
section Pre-alignement delay values (p.49).

Frequency response contour

For the X Series coaxial loudspeaker enclosures, there are two distinct contours:
— the standard preset, for all applications except stage monitor applications
— the _MO preset, dedicated to stage monitor applications
For legacy coaxial loudspeaker enclosures (XT and MTD Series), there are three distinct contours:
— the _FR presets, for most of FOH applications
— the _FI presets, for spoken word, classical music, jazz, or ll systems
— the _MO presets, for half-space loading conditions, typically monitor applications
For current WST systems, there are one or two distinct contours:
— the main preset, ensuring a reference FOH contour to the line source with usual deployment parameters
— the _FI preset, dedicated to loudspeaker enclosures used as a ll system (for some systems only)
The oldest WST systems inherit from a legacy preset structure (_HI and _LO presets).
If necessary, users can adjust the sonic signature of L-Acoustics systems through the Contour EQ tools in LA Network
Manager.
The Array Morphing tool provides two parameters, zoom factor and LF contour, that allow users to adjust the response
of a WST system. At any reference listening distance and with any line source length, the engineer can obtain the sonic
signature of a bigger, smaller, closer or further system, and can unify the sonic signature of multiple sources. Refer to the
LA Network Manager tutorial and Array Morphing white paper for detailed information.

 FLAT presets

FLAT presets
The transducer connected to an output channel of a FLAT preset is not protected by L-DRIVE.
The only active limitation allows minimizing clipping risks to protect the amplier.
When driving a third party loudspeaker enclosure, it is then recommended to use an external DSP device with a
preset specically designed for this model.
With a FLAT preset, an input signal is amplied and directly routed to output without any modication of the frequency
response. All the output parameters are accessible (Mute, Gain, Delay, Polarity, and Routing).
Using the [FLAT_xxxx] preset with LA4 or LA4X provides 6 dB of headroom. Using the [FLAT_LA8] preset with LA8
provides 8 dB of headroom. Using [FLAT_LA12X] preset with LA12X provides 9.5 dB of headroom.

Variable Curvature WST systems presets

The factory presets dedicated to variable curvature WST line sources are optimized for long throw applications. In the
following sections, tables describe the loudspeaker congurations and the factory presets for each system. Discriminant
acoustic properties of each loudspeaker conguration are given, such as -10 dB bandwidth or LF limit, frequency
response contour, or directivity specicity.

K1

Compatibility issues
[K1], [KARADOWNK1] and [K2 xxx] presets from versions 4.x and later of the preset library are not compatible
with [K1] and [KARADOWNK1] from versions of the preset library prior to 4.0.
Compatibility issues may occur when working from a Session le with units using older presets. Use the same
version of the preset library for all units within a single line source.

[xx_MO] presets for the X series use the amplied controller low latency operating mode. When used along with
subwoofers, it is recommended to use the subwoofers in low latency operating mode. To achieve this, create
custom presets combining low latency channel sets and subwoofer channel sets.
If the subwoofers are driven from a dedicated amplied controller using a subwoofer factory preset, they are
operated in normal latency mode. Therefore, an additional delay should be set to the [xx_MO] low latency

summation. If no acoustic measurement tool is available, it is possible to use the pre-alignment delay values given
in the tables on this section.
Pre-alignment delays have been measured with the enclosures at the same geometric location, front face on the
same plane.
After adding these values to the factory presets, time-alignment is then obtained by adding the geometric delay to
the closest system. The geometric delay is calculated from the path difference between a reference listening point
and the center of each system.

Procedure

1. Measure the path difference: PA - PB, with:

P: reference listening point
A: center of the further system, named system a
B: center of the closest system, named system b
2. Calculate the Geometric delay(s): Path difference (m) / Sound velocity (m.s-1), with:
sound velocity ≈ 340 m.s-1 at 20°C and in dry air
3. Refer to the tables of this section to nd the Pre-alignment delay a and the Pre-alignment delay b,
corresponding to the system a + system b combination.
4. Add the Alignment delay to the factory preset of each system. Being the closest to the reference listening point, the
geometric delay must be added to the system b only:
a) alignment delay (ms) for system a = Pre-alignment delay a (ms)
b) alignment delay (ms) for system b = Pre-alignment delay b (ms) + Geometric delay (ms)
Normalization: If ≠ 0, substract Pre-alignment delay a to both Alignment delay values.

Coaxial loudspeaker enclosures

[xx_MO] presets for the X series use the amplied controller low latency operating mode. When used along with
subwoofers, it is recommended to use the subwoofers in low latency operating mode. To achieve this, create
custom presets combining low latency channel sets and subwoofer channel sets.
If the subwoofers are driven from a dedicated amplied controller using a subwoofer factory preset, they are
operated in normal latency mode. Therefore, an additional delay should be set to the [xx_MO] low latency
channels to align them: 2.65 ms on LA8 or 3.08 ms on LA4X and LA12X.
