Starting Note: If using measure to obtain impulse responses from objects internal to the Huron, the results may be offset by 2 samples from the correct response. This will only occur when a multiple channel (3 channels or more) measurement is performed on the object in question. Measurements of systems external to the Huron are not affected. ↓ To access the Measurement tool Selecting the Test Signal ↓ To select a test signal Note: All test files must be a power of two (2) in length. Generating the Output Signal ↓ To transmit the output test signal THE ENGINEERING TOOLS The Measurement tool must be loaded into the VRack via the New Engineering tools submenu (for loading instructions see the System Tools section of this manual). • Click the Measurement icon in the rack panel. The measurement response window will appear (see Figure 60) Additionally, the Measurement tool will appear with its appropriate patchsets in the Patch Bay tool (Figure 61). Figure 61 — Measurement Patch Panel Before measurement can commence, a test signal needs to be selected. • Select a test signal, from the Signal File drop down combo box. — or — Scroll the Signal File drop down combo box to Other … then type or select the name of the test signal file. After selecting a test signal, the signal can be downloaded to the DSP system and transmitted out of a physical output. 1. Click on Signal. HURON TECHNICAL MANUAL PAGE 198
Inputs ↓ To change the number of Inputs Note: When calculating the impulse response, a separate impulse response file is generated for each input. Sum Multiplier ↓ To select the Sum Multiplier DC Block ↓ To enable DC Block THE ENGINEERING TOOLS The transmission of the Output Test Signal will be started, and the Signal button will dim, to alert the user the signal has been loaded. 2. Use the Patch Bay (see the System Tools section of this manual) to patch the Output Test Signal to the input of the system under test. There may be a need to have more than one input to the Measurement tool. For example, when measuring the impulse response of a room, it may be desirable to take measurements at many different locations in the room simultaneously. Similarly, if a microphone other than mono (stereo, binaural, B-format, etc) is used, the Measure program will capture the impulse response on several channels synchronously. • Select the number of inputs required, from the Inputs drop down combo box. Once the number of Inputs is selected the Patch Bay will update the number of input patch points. The Measurement tool repeatedly outputs the measurement signal. Synchronously, the input samples are read at the input into a buffer. The impulse response is calculated from this buffer. The Sum Multiplier field can be used to read a number of sample blocks into the buffer and to average the data, which can give a more accurate measurement of the impulse response of a system in the presence of noise. • Select a value from the Sum Multiplier drop down combo box. DC Block can be enabled to subtract any DC offset from the final measurement of the impulse response. • Check DC Block. HURON TECHNICAL MANUAL PAGE 199
