Orfeusz206 Loudspeaker Calibration Tool

Orfeusz206 comes with a calibration tool reachable from the main menu: Settings → Loudspeaker
Calibration. The aim of calibration procedure is to align output levels of every loudspeaker in the setup
to make sure that the sound field is homogeneous, and that there's no preferred direction.
Orfeusz206 calibration tool will command the external unit to output pink noise. We like pink noise for
calibration purpose, because most musical programs have similar average power spectrum density.
Loudspeaker Calibration window displays your speaker setup in a simplified fashion. The yellow arrow
in the middle shows the same 'North' direction.
To start calibration process, click Start button. Orfeusz206 mutes now all outputs.

Click Next. Orfeusz206 emits pink noise
on the first output used for spatial speaker
setup (outputs dedicated to subwoofer feed
are not taken into account in the calibration
process). If you wish to start a calibration
from scratch, click Reset to set all
loudspeakers level to minimum.
Adjust level with the slider so that you get
a similar level to what you expect during
performance. Place a sound level meter at
sweet spot position (or ask someone with
reliable ears to stand at sweet spot) and
register the sound level.
Click Next. Orfeusz206 emits now pink
noise through the next output in clockwise
order. Adjust level on slider so that you get
the same sound level as registered
previously.
window highlights in red the speaker that
is emitting, so this is a good opportunity to
check also your loudspeaker wiring.
Repeat until you adjusted the level for all
loudspeakers. When you're finished, click
Close: you're ready to mix now!
Note: Pink noise is generated at –12 dB
level. Hence, maximum output level at
calibration stage (when sliders are in
utmost position) is –6 dBu.
