General Operation
• Overview
Y-S3 is a software application that aids in speaker system design, using data entered by the user on room type and
size, speaker type, installation conditions, and amplifier and processor type and configuration to calculate the
response from the audiences’ position. Y-S3 then presents the results as sound pressure distribution and contour
figures for use in constructing appropriate speaker systems.
• Startup
Double-click the Y-S3 icon on the desktop or select [Start] - [Programs] - [YAMAHA] - [Y-S3]. The program starts and
the main window appears.
Click in the main window to open a new project.
In Select Venue Geometry, set the venue type (venue shape), floor shape, number of floors, and the listener's ear
height.
