Abstract: A waveguide (1) comprising a shell (11, 12) having an inlet opening (110, 120) intended to receive acoustic energy and an outlet opening (111, 121) for emitting acoustic energy; and a phase plug (13, 14) located into the shell (11, 12) so as to define therebetween a pathway (W) for the acoustic energy from the inlet opening (110, 120) to the outlet opening (111, 121). The acoustic pathway (W) has a longitudinal extension direction (D) between the openings (110, 120, 111, 121) and the directions of all longitudinal splines (S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6) of the pathway (W) are perpendicular to the inlet opening (110, 120) at the inlet opening (110, 120) on one ideal longitudinal surface.

Abstract: Adaptive performance software, operating on a computing device, may be used to control an adaptive loudspeaker system within a venue. In some embodiments, the adaptive performance software may receive a selection of a target area within the venue. The adaptive performance software may then determine a smallest affected zone that includes the target area, and may present the smallest affected zone to the user to indicate what the affected area for the requested changes would be. In some embodiments, the adaptive performance software may take the shape of the venue, the capabilities of the loudspeaker array as configured and flown in the venue, and/or the specific setting changes which are desired in order to determine the smallest affected zone that includes the selected area.

Abstract: Audio loudspeaker 100 can be arranged in various vertical arrays, such as 102 or 104. Each loudspeaker 100 includes a generally trapezoidal-shaped housing 120 composed of two forwardly projecting lobe sections 122. A pair of low-frequency cone transducers 130 are housed in the lobe sections 122. A vertically arranged set 132 of high-frequency compression drivers are positioned centrally in the housing to project in the forward direction. Three mid-frequency cone transducers 134 are vertically arranged along opposite sides of the high frequency drivers 132. Each of the low-, mid-, and high-frequency transducers are individually powered and controlled by a separate DSP channel.

Abstract: Audio loudspeaker 300 can be arranged in various vertical arrays, such as 302. Each loudspeaker 300 is identical in construction and includes a housing 310 generally in the shape of a rectangular cuboid. A pair of ultra low-frequency transducers 300 are positioned in the housing 310. Each of the ultra low-frequency transducers is individually powered and controlled by a separate DSP channel, thereby to directionally steer the transducer output.
