L-Acoustics M1 Measurement & Monitoring Tools
L-Acoustics has introduced the M1 suite , a comprehensive set of measurement and monitoring tools . M1 harnesses the manufacturer ’ s Milan-certified P1 processor and amplified controller hardware to deliver a streamlined system calibration process as well as real-time performance monitoring .
It ’ s a dual-channel FFT measurement platform that automates the usual process of data capture and analysis when tuning a venue , sequentially muting and unmuting different parts of the system that need to be measured , capturing audio , labeling measurements , and storing data to the proper groups automatically . With M1 , mic placement and capture throughout the venue is done only once . Data is acquired and compiled in the software , and measurements can be visualized individually as spatial averages and sums of elements . If adjustments to EQ are needed , they can be done virtually , and subsequently analyzed and optimized within M1 , meaning that the user attains the best calibration for the venue much faster . And once the measurements have been captured , the sound team can leave the venue and finish the calibration offline .
