Virtual System Design

RHAON software can save you time at the job site by enabling you to set up a complete virtual loudspeaker system before you go to the
site. When you get to the site, you connect your computer to the network, link the virtual loudspeakers with their real counterparts, and
upload the settings to each individual loudspeaker.
Your loudspeaker system can include individual
loudspeakers, groups of multiple loudspeakers,
or a combination of both. Groups as well as in-
dividual loudspeakers can be controlled (turned
On or Off, Muted, have their levels adjusted,
and more) using your mouse.
We recommend you consider using "Groups"
in your designs. You can always control each
individual loudspeaker, but quite often it's more
efficient to have them grouped together.
You begin designing a virtual system in the
main RHAON window, which is divided into
two sections. The left vertical panel lists all the
available devices in a directory tree format. The
larger section on the right displays loudspeaker
icons and other specialized work areas: the All
Loudspeakers icon represents your loudspeak-
er system. It functions as a "group" control for
all the loudspeakers. If you need more space
on the right, minimize the left hand section by
clicking on the Close icon on its right edge.
Let's say we want to add two IC Squared
IC2 loudspeakers to the system. Clicking on
Add Virtual Device(s) in the top left tool bar
opens an Add New Speakers window. Browse
to find the loudspeaker model you want to add
(IC2-1 in the example) and select it. Type a
quantity (2 in our screen shot) into the Amount
To Add field and click the Add button.
In the screen shot to the right, icons repre-
senting the two IC Squared arrays have been
added to the workspace and moved to their
approximate location by grabbing them with the
Mouse Cursor and moving them.
Now you can define initial DSP settings for your
virtual loudspeakers. The DSP settings can
then be uploaded to the actual loudspeakers
once your computer has been connected to the
loudspeaker network at the site.
