KNOW HOW ›MOBILE-SOUND‹ TECHNOLOGY<br />

Correct installation of mobile systems<br />

The correct assembly of the loudspeakers is most important<br />

when installing a mobile-sound system. The speakers are<br />

preferably positioned in such a way that the addressed<br />

audience is in their main irradiating direction.<br />

Please note the following principles for installation:<br />

● Install your sound system in such a way that the<br />

moderator talks towards the audience. The acoustic<br />

location of the moderator is improved thereby.<br />

● Square rooms, round rooms or rooms with a lot of glass<br />

are generally problematic. Here, many reflections falsify<br />

the sound characteristics and affect the understandability<br />

of speech. You will probably have to experiment a<br />

little from room to room in order to minimize the reflections<br />

of the sound. Inside such rooms, it is recommended<br />

to operate with the lowest possible volume in order to<br />

avoid reflections. To achieve better results in these<br />

rooms, use more highs and less lows.<br />

EVENT WITH 1000 PEOPLE<br />

● Some specific characteristics arise with outdoor events.<br />

It is calculated that the audience at outdoor events<br />

generates a sound pressure level of approximately<br />

75 dB, with an upward tendency. For a sufficient<br />

understandability of speech, the loudspeaker level has to<br />

be ca. 10 dB higher. To be on the safe side, the possibility<br />

of 95 dB should be provided.<br />

● On larger outdoor areas and low volume, good results<br />

are achieved with decentralised public address, meaning<br />

the application of more than one loudspeaker.<br />

● In wide or long rooms, it is often an advantage to use an<br />

additional speaker. Place the additional speaker approximately<br />

in the centre to your audience, and adjust it to the<br />

same irradiative direction as your main speaker.<br />

● Central acoustic irradiations normally are the best possibility<br />

to work without problems. They have the advantage<br />

of easy installation and are free of disturbing echo, as<br />

long as there are no reflective surfaces.<br />

A few words on feedback<br />

If possible, always position your microphone behind the<br />

loudspeakers. Feedback is a whistling, screaming and very<br />

penetrative noise, which activates itself. If both a<br />

microphone and a loudspeaker are located in the same<br />

room, a self activation of the PA system by acoustic<br />

feedback may occur. The condition for acoustic feedback is<br />

a closed transmission circuit. The microphone picks up a<br />

noise, which then is amplified and radiated by the loudspeaker.<br />
