  Grid (Distributed Speaker Layout Pattern) 
You can place speakers at intervals on your choosing on a plane. This function is useful when evaluating the sound 
pressure distribution resulting from a particular placement. 
  Layout Judgment 
Select a “Pattern” from the list box, and enter a “Pitch” (the interval between speakers). 
Pattern: 
Select either “Rectangular” or “Hexagonal” as a layout pattern for speakers on a plane. 
Pitch: 
Set the intervals at which you want to place speakers. Enter a value greater than 0 m. 
  Speaker Arrangement 
  Angle (Relative): 
Set the angle of the speaker when seen from the plane. Default settings are Pan (0.0), Tilt (90.0), and Rot (0.0). The 
available range is -180.0 to 180.0. 
Offset from plane: 
Set the offset of the speaker from the wall. The default setting is (0.00), indicating that the speaker’s rear is flat against 
the plane. The available range is -90.00 m to 90.00 m (-295.0 ft to 295.0 ft).
