Name
Enter the names you want to use for plane surfaces (e.g.: Ceiling, Front, Back, Wall etc). Names for the individual
speakers that make up a plane are generated automatically (***sp1, ***sp2 etc, where *** is the name of the plane).
You can change these names in Speaker List. To change a name, select a flat surface or an individual speaker from
Speaker List. Right-click the item you have selected, select [Rename] from the menu that appears, and enter the new
name.
Speakers Type
Select the type of speaker you want to place from the list box. Note that the suffix ‘r’ on a type name indicates a horn-
rotated speaker. Certain speakers can be chosen from either High Impedance connection (shown as “_HiZ”) or Low
Impedance connection (shown as “_LoZ”). Refer to the website at https://www.yamaha.com/proaudio/
for details.
