AUDIENCE OFFSETS

You will notice that the green lines showing the audience area are hovering above the planes
which is to represent the offset of the position of the audience members' ears. By default this
will be a uniform offset for all audience areas set to standing. Changes are made using the
Audience Offsets panel:
If for example the entire audience is seated, you can simply click the seating button and you
will see the green audience line drop accordingly. The Standing offset is 1.6m and the Seating
is 0.8. If you have a particularly unusual audience, very tall standing or perhaps very low seats,
you can use the Custom offset to define the offset height in metres.
You will often encounter venues where you have a non uniform offset, for example a room with
a seated balcony but standing downstairs in the stalls. In these instances you need to un-check
the Uniform Offset button and define the offset for each plane individually. When you uncheck
the box the controls change and look like this:
