Trinnov Audio 3D Measurement Microphonewith Ethercon connector
The measurement microphone is one of the most critical components of any Loudspeaker/Room Calibration System.
Trinnov's sophisticated algorithms rely not only on extremely accurate acoustic measurements but also on the ability to localize speakers' positions and detect early reflections.
Our 3D Microphone is at the heart of our technology and has the unique capability to capture the data necessary to achieve maximum performance with our advanced acoustic field processing.
More than an ordinary measurement microphone, it captures not only the impulse response of every loudspeaker and subwoofer in your system, but also localizes them in three dimensions.
For every speaker and subwoofer, the microphone provides the Optimizer with a comprehensive amount of acoustic information: frequency response, phase, group delay, impulse response, distance, azimuth, elevation and absolute SPL.
Tetrahedral layout
As each speaker is measured, the resulting sound waves pass through this array of microphone capsules, hitting each one at a slightly different time.
Based on this timing, we can triangulate the location of the speaker from which the sound arrived. By placing the microphone at the main listening position and testing each speaker in turn, we build a three-dimensional map of where the speakers are relative to the main listening position.
We use this information to enable our proprietary Remapping technology, in which we translate from the theoretical rendering of the soundtrack to the specifics of your particular room. Remapping uses the existing speaker array to create a phantom image of the sound coming from the correct location.
