Native Mode - Meyer Sound LINA Operating Instructions Manual

CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
LINA includes Meyer Sound's QuickFly® rigging with cap-
tive GuideALinks™, which are compatible with MINA (same
external dimensions) and can create splay angles from 1 to
11 degrees. Rigging options are shared with MINA and
include the MG-MINA/LINA/750-LFC Multipurpose Grid
(Figure 2), the MCF-MINA/LINA Caster Frame (Figure 3), the
MYA-MINA/LINA Yoke and the MUB-MINA/LINA U-Bracket.
Entire LINA family systems should be designed with
Meyer Sound's MAPP prediction software, which effectively
predicts system SPL and coverage requirements. Using the
Meyer Sound MDM-832 distribution module to route AC
power, balanced audio, and RMS™ to multiple LINA loud-
speakers makes configuring a system much easier and
faster.

NATIVE MODE

LINA and 750-LFC loudspeakers are optimized for use in
certain flown and groundstacked configurations without any
array compensation or other signal processing. This
capability, called Native mode, allows LINA/750-LFC systems
to be deployed quickly with excellent results, without
equalization, tuning, or use of presets.
To use LINA and 750-LFC loudspeakers in Native mode,
send an identical, unmodified signal to each element in the
array. Looping the same unprocessed source signal through
all array elements is the simplest approach.
The following coplanar configurations can be used in Native
mode (without any signal processing):
Flown mixed arrays of LINAs and 750-LFCs (Figure 4)
•
Flown separate arrays of LINAs and 750-LFCs (Figure 5)
•
Mixed groundstacks of LINAs and 750-LFCs (Figure 6)
