Trinnov's sophisticated algorithms are based not only on highly accurate acoustic measurements, but also on the ability to localize loudspeaker positions and identify early reflections. Our 3D microphone uses four microphone elements in a precise tetrahedral arrangement. Each capsule is individually factory-calibrated (± 0.1 dB from 20 Hz to 24 kHz). The resulting microphone calibration file is located on a USB stick inside the microphone box. This file is installed in the Trinnov product being used, and all subsequent measurements are filtered by the calibration coefficients to ensure accuracy.
As each speaker is measured, the resulting sound waves pass through this array of microphones, reaching each at a slightly different time. Based on this timing, we can triangulate the position of the speaker from which the sound arrived. By testing each speaker in sequence, we create a three-dimensional map indicating where the speakers are located relative to the microphone (which is located at the main listening position). We can do this within 2° of azimuth, 2° of elevation, and 1 cm of distance. We use this information to activate our proprietary remapping technology, where we translate from the theoretical rendering of the soundtrack to the specifics of your room. Remapping uses two or three speakers closest to the intended location of a sound to create a phantom image of the sound.
Among other things, remapping serves as a “universal translator” between the various audio formats. This is especially important in home theaters, as all three immersive audio formats do not agree on where you should place your speakers.
We solve this problem for you.
Sound designers and mixers for major motion pictures have carefully constructed listening environments whose sole purpose is to perfect the soundtracks they are working on.
In contrast, smaller studios are often spatially quite difficult and have to place their speakers however they can.
In the living area, even the most luxurious home theaters have to contend with constraints such as doors and windows, not to mention HVAC, lighting, and other architectural details that preclude "perfect" speaker placement.
It is a challenging situation.
