  • Page 6: 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).
  • Page 7 • 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.

  • Page 84: Colinear Systems

    Pre-alignment delay values Colinear systems No pre-alignment delay values are required for the Syva system. 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.
