  • Page 2: Introduction

    The SLA 40 has a maximum hinge of 10°, variable in steps of 2°. This hinge is enough to provide necessary tilt in a typical J or spiral array. The SLA 40 is capable of producing peak SPL of 132dB with its dual LF drivers and twin HF drivers.

    SLA 40. • More stage space available as SLA 40 arrays are flown. Important Concept of Line Array: In the case of normal loudspeakers, as sound travels, its SPL (Sound Pressure Level) falls by 6dB for every doubling of distance.
  • Page 4: Vertical Beam

    SLA 40T disperses sound as a line source with a vertical beam angle of 10° & horizontal beam angle of 100°. A very simplistic depiction of this is shown below. VERTICAL BEAM 100° HORIZONTAL BEAM When SLA 40T enclosures are flown, it is possible to configure these in any one of the following formation: Straight Array –...

    J-Array – This is a combination of straight and curved arrays. In the real world Line Arrays are almost always used as curved vertical arrays. A large venue may consist of a dozen enclosures, with top two to four enclosures straight with 0° vertical splay, aimed at the farthest seats. As we move down the array, the angle between adjacent enclosures increases until at the bottom there are one or two modules aimed almost straight down to cover the front seating area.

    • The SLA 40T can be rigged using the SLA 40 KIT, as set of essential hardware required for rigging & flying this line array system. It consists of ultra durable Flybars / Array Frames & Quick Release Pins (Push - Pull Bullets).
  • Page 8 Please secure the flybar with an additional safety chain, especially when the modules are suspended with a single motor. Note: Studiomaster Professional is not liable for any accident caused due to negligence of the safety instructions, improper usage, use of inferior quality trusses, chain pulley systems, other flying accessories & mounting on surfaces which are not strong enough to support the weight of the speakers.

    5. Flying Patterns 1. Centrally flown single array Center Positioning A centrally flown single array is suitable for indoor installation where the room is not very wide. SLA 40T has a wide horizontal dispersion and will be able to evenly disperse sound in rooms with a width of within 25m.
