Nor is it merely a sum of the components: loudspeakers, amplifiers, signal processors, networking, software and accessories. Right from the outset the d&b audiotechnik approach was to build integrated sound reinforcement systems 4 d&b Y-Series that actually are more than the combination of parts: an entirety where each fits all. Every element is tightly specified, precisely aligned and carefully matched to achieve maximum efficiency. For ease of use, all the user-definable parameters are incorporated, allowing the possibility of adjustment, either directly, via remote control surfaces, or integrated within wider networks. Neutral sound characteristics leave the user all the freedom needed to realize whatever the brief. At the same time d&b offers finance, service and support, a knowledgeable distribution network, education and training as well as technical information, so the same optimal acoustic result is achieved consistently by every system anywhere, at any time. In reality: the d&b System reality. d&b Y-Series 5 The Y-Series loudspeakers are designed with a clear perspective to provide flexible and configurable solutions, even in the most arduous sound reinforcement situations. Performing arts, conferences, religious events and live shows; applications all demanding strict qualities in the performance, look and feel of a loudspeaker. On one side the Y-Series provides adept small to 6 d&b Y-Series medium scale, stand alone or distributed point source solutions, whereas on the other hand the wide spectrum of midsized line array potential is inherited from its bigger brothers, the V-Series and J-Series. Flexible horizontal dispersion characteristics combined with either rotatable horns or innovative custom waveguides ensure constant directivity over a wide bandwidth. Dipolar driver arrangements deliver accurate dispersion control, while a deep LF performance is derived from the bass‑reflex design. Three point rigging systems are integrated into the arrayable cabinets, even the cardioid subwoofer, these, together with ground stacking options, present an abundance of opportunity for deployment. The Yi loudspeakers differ only slightly in cabinet construction, finish and mounting hardware. They are intended for permanently installed performance spaces where the specification is rider driven by the artist or mix engineer’s preferences. Both the Yi cabinets and mounting hardware can be properly colour matched to interior designs and weather protected for climatically hostile environments. d&b Y-Series 7 The Y-Series The Y7P and Yi7P as well as the Y10P and Yi10P point source loudspeakers both feature the same dipolar arrangement with two 8" drivers centered around a 1.4" HF compression driver mounted on a CD horn with 75° x 40° and 110° x 40° dispersion characteristics respectively. A rotatable horn enables deployment in either orientation, whilst an innovative bass-reflex and port design gives an increased LF performance. The high performance omnidirectional B6 and Bi6-SUB feature a single 18" long excursion driver, intended for ground stacked applications only. The Y8 and Y12 and the installation specific Yi8 and Yi12 line array modules also share the same driver arrangement, with two 8" dipolar mounted drivers and a 1.4" HF driver combined with a central wave transformer. The advanced bassreflex and port arrangement delivers full bandwidth capabilities with an extended LF output. Due to the dipolar arrangement of the LF drivers, a broadband, horizontal directivity control is maintained down to approximately 500 Hz for the different dispersion options, 80° for the Y8 and 120° for the Y12. The arrayable, cardioid Y and Yi both house two long excursion neodymium drivers, powered by a single amplifier channel. The 18" and 12" drivers arranged in an integrated cardioid setup, avoid unwanted energy behind the system. Y7P, Y10P loudspeaker Yi7P, Yi10P loudspeaker B6 subwoofer Bi6 subwoofer Y8, Y12 loudspeaker Y subwoofer All Y loudspeakers are finished with a PCP (Polyurea Cabinet Protection) coating that provides mobile systems with protection against impact and resistance to the adverse effects on cabinets caused by changing ambient outdoor conditions. The Yi cabinets feature an impact resistant paint finish; Weather Resistant and Special Colour options are available. Yi8, Yi12 loudspeaker Yi subwoofer The d&b software offering aides the entire system setup process. The d&b ArrayCalc simulation software allows the virtual optimization of loudspeaker line arrays, point source and column loudspeakers as well as subwoofers and their adjustment to venue conditions. The d&b NoizCalc immission modelling software uses international standards to model noise immission from d&b loudspeaker systems. NoizCalc takes data from ArrayCalc and calculates the sound propagation towards the far field. The complete system configuration simulated in ArrayCalc is assimilated by the d&b R1 Remote control software into an intuitive graphical user interface to manage the amplifiers, and loudspeakers, from anywhere in the venue. d&b amplifiers are specifically designed for use with d&b loudspeakers, and are at the heart of the d&b system approach. These devices contain extensive Digital Signal Processing capabilities to provide comprehensive loudspeaker management and specific switchable filter functions to precisely target the system response for a wide variety of applications. The four channel D80 amplifier is intended for both mobile and installation applications requiring the highest Sound Pressure Levels. The installation specific four channel 30D amplifier is intended for permanent integration within venues which require medium to high Sound Pressure Levels. These amplifiers all provide extensive user-definable equalization containing two 16-band equalizers with parametric, notch, shelving and asymmetric filters as well as delay capabilities of up to 10 seconds. An extensive range of standardized transport solutions is offered for the Y-Series, consisting of touring cases, touring carts as well as transport lids. Complete cabling structures including multicores and breakouts are also available, alongside extensive mounting options. Amplifier Touring rack assemblies can be provided for either three D20 amplifiers, three D80 amplifiers, or six D80 amplifiers. The DS10 Audio network bridge can be supplied in these fully equipped system racks, which also house mains power distribution units, connector interfaces and all internal cabling. D80 amplifier 30D amplifier The DS10 Audio network bridge provides 16 AES3 outputs and interfaces between the Dante audio transport protocol and the d&b amplifiers. DS10 Audio network bridge The DS100 Signal Engine is based on a specialized rack mount 3 RU audio processor with Audinate Dante networking. It provides a 64 x 64 audio matrix with level and delay adjustments at all cross points. Additional software modules provide dynamic source positioning and emulated acoustics functions.

This is a comprehensive toolbox for all tasks associated with acoustic design, performance prediction, alignment, rigging and safety parameters. For safety reasons d&b line arrays must be designed using the d&b ArrayCalc simulation software. ArrayCalc is available as a native standalone application for both Microsoft Windows1(Win7 or higher) and Mac OS X2 (10.7 or higher) operating systems. In combination with the d&b Remote Network, this can significantly reduce setup and tuning time in mobile applications and allows for precise simulations when planning installations. Listening planes can be defined in the venue tab, creating a three dimensional representation of any audience area in a given venue. This can also include balconies, side stalls, arenas, in the round scenarios or festivals. Special functions assist in obtaining accurate dimensions with laser distance finders and inclinometers. Both simulations reflect changes in delay time to the single sources in real time. The d&b ArrayCalc simulation software is available at www.dbaudio.com, along with further information and video tutorials. Venue Simulation Up to fourteen flown arrays or subwoofer columns can be defined in a project file as single hangs or in pairs. A selection of d&b point source loudspeakers can also be fully integrated as well as a ground stacked SUB array consisting of up to fifty one positions. All can be freely positioned according to their intended application, for example as main hang, outfill, nearfill or delay. Position, orientation, aiming and coverage details are displayed. Level over distance is calculated for each source with high resolution in real time, for either band limited or broadband input signals. The comprehensive simulation precisely models the actual performance of the system, taking into account input level, all system configuration options (such as CUT, CPL, HFC or INFRA), limiter headroom and air absorption. Acoustic obstacles, such as video screens, can be added to a model. Acoustic shadowing, whether by these obstacles, or a balcony overhang, is taken into consideration. The load status of all array rigging components is calculated accurately and displayed to determine whether a given array is within the load tolerance. Subwoofer array design is assisted by coverage and polar plot prediction. A specialized algorithm allows the user to specify subwoofer positions and a coverage angle, which is then converted into appropriate delay settings that result in the desired dispersion. The alignment tab enables different sources to be time aligned to one another, as well as showing arrival times and Sound Pressure Levels at a definable reference point on one of the audience areas. For alignment of the flown system with the ground stacked SUB array, the phase response of both the SUB array and a flown source is calculated at a definable reference point. Alignment 3D Plot quad 1 26 d&b Y-Series 2 Microsoft Windows is a registered trademark or trademark of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and/or other countries Mac OS X is a trademark of Apple Inc., registered in the U.S. and other countries Prediction The level distribution resulting from the interaction of all active sources can be mapped onto the audience areas in a three-dimensional view, which can also be zoomed, rotated and exported as a graphics file. EASE and DXF data export capabilities are also available. A rigging plot with all necessary coordinates, dimensions and weights of arrays is generated for export and printing and a parts list, detailing all components required. The d&b ArrayCalc Viewer app presents this key information for positioning and flying a d&b audiotechnik loudspeaker system on a mobile device. Once the system has been designed, calculated and optimized, all relevant project information can be shared via email, AirDrop, or downloaded onto any iOS or Android device. ArrayProcessing The optional ArrayProcessing function applies powerful filter algorithms to optimize the tonal (spectral) and level (spatial) performance of a line array column over the audience area defined by its mechanical vertical coverage angle. Within the d&b ArrayCalc simulation software, spectral and level performance targets over the listening areas can be defined while specific level drops or offsets can be applied to certain areas, to assign reduced level zones. ArrayProcessing applies a combination of FIR and IIR filters to each individual cabinet in an array to achieve the targeted performance, with an additional latency of only 5.9 ms. This significantly improves the linearity of the response over distance as well as seamlessly correcting for air absorption. In addition, ArrayProcessing employs the same frequency response targets for all d&b line arrays, to ensure all systems share a common tonality. This provides consistent sonic results regardless of array length or splay settings. The resulting coverage is enhanced with spectral consistency and defined level distribution, achieving more linear dispersion and total system directivity to cover longer distances or steep listening areas effectively. R1 Remote Control Software R1 uses the same project file created by ArrayCalc and generates an intuitive graphical user interface including complete details of the simulated system, loudspeakers, amplifiers, remote IDs, groups, ArrayProcessing data and all configuration information. This workflow removes the need to manually transfer data from one software program to the other. Sources, SUB array ArrayProcessing Amplifiers d&b Y-Series 27 The d&b NoizCalc immission modelling software The d&b R1 Remote control software The d&b software uses international standards to model the far field noise immission from multiple complex and coherently emitting sources such as line arrays and subwoofer arrays. Gaining permission and licenses to stage live open air events often requires an official statement with a prediction of how noise could impact on the surrounding area. Careful planning of the combined directivity and the direction can influence the immission result outside of the event area. NoizCalc takes all complex loudspeaker data and a reference point from the d&b ArrayCalc simulation software and calculates the sound propagation and relative attenuation values towards the far field for a certain scenario with particular meteorological conditions for one or more d&b loudspeaker systems. The remote control capability of the d&b Remote network enables central control and monitoring of a complete d&b loudspeaker system from anywhere in the network, be it from a computer in the control room, at the mix position, or on a wireless tablet in the auditorium. This central access to all functions through the d&b Remote network, to controls as well as detailed system and device diagnostics information, unlocks the full potential of the d&b system approach. In a typical user workflow, the d&b Remote network takes settings optimized in the ArrayCalc Simulation Software and applies these to all the amplifiers within the network. R1 uses the same project file created by ArrayCalc allowing system configuration to be quickly accomplished, providing more time for verification and fine tuning. Editor Home All features, functions and controls available on the front panel of d&b amplifiers may be remotely controlled and/or monitored using the d&b R1 Remote control software. This allows each channel of the amplifier to be controlled and enables the creation of groups of loudspeakers. When grouped together, a button or fader can control the overall system level, zone level, equalization and delay, power ON/OFF, MUTE, as well as loudspeaker specific function switches such as CUT/HFA/HFC and CPL. An offline mode is provided for preparation in advance of an event, without the amplifiers being present or connected. d&b System check verifies that the system performs within a predefined condition, while the Array verification function automatically identifies the physical position of a loudspeaker in an array to check that the system is cabled correctly. Extensive facilities for storing and recalling system settings are provided allowing these to be repeated, as and when required. For mobile applications, project files can be easily adjusted for use with a different set of equipment at another location. The results are displayed on a 3D terrain map showing the calculated immission on the areas surrounding the audience listening zones. This visual representation shows the actual system performance in the far field, enabling users to optimize for listeners while satisfying local noise restrictions and offsite regulations. To ensure the results are reliable, NoizCalc includes all complex data concerning the addition and subtraction of sound waves, including phase information to describe the combination and interaction effects within a loudspeaker system consisting of multiple line arrays, subwoofer arrays and delay systems. NoizCalc models immissions in the far field according to the internationally accepted ISO 9613-2 or Nord2000 calculation standards. Ground characteristics can be set depending on the absorbency or reflectivity of surfaces, while areas with volume attenuating properties can be defined. Buildings can be included, and the maximum reflection order option adjusts how many reflections are calculated. Parameters for humidity, air pressure and temperature ensure that the correct air absorption figures are accounted. The ISO 9613-2 standard requires limited meteorological information and assumes a worst case scenario. The more sophisticated propagation model, Nord2000 enables a more precise handling of meteorological conditions allowing the user to model with prevailing wind information. The d&b NoizCalc immission modelling software is available at www.dbaudio.com for registered download, along with further information and video tutorials. It was developed in collaboration with SoundPLAN, a specialist software developer for environmental noise prediction. Graphic plot In installation projects system integrators can configure the d&b Remote Network to offer access to different levels of control, tailored to the operational demands. For example, power ON/OFF for daily use, or more complex functionality for detailed control. Password protection is available to restrict access. Input and Load monitoring allow installation operators to ensure optimum performance at all times. The d&b R1 Remote control software enables d&b amplifiers to be remotely controlled using both Ethernet and CAN-Bus in parallel. The software is optimized for use with touch screen, mouse and keyboard and runs on both Microsoft Windows1 (Win7 or higher) and Mac OS X2 (10.7 or higher) operating systems. Further information is provided in the d&b Amplifier and Software brochure which is available for download at www.dbaudio.com. 1 28 d&b Y-Series 2 Microsoft Windows is a registered trademark or trademark of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and/or other countries Mac OS X is a trademark of Apple Inc., registered in the U.S. and other countries Remote in Configuration mode 16-band equalizer d&b Y-Series 29 The d&b amplifiers different output configurations for different loudspeaker setups, including Dual Channel mode, for passive setups, Mix TOP/SUB mode, in which two channels are driven through a single output connector, and 2-Way Active mode, which also sends the output of two channels down one connector to drive appropriate loudspeakers actively. The d&b switch functions provide selected filters to precisely tailor a wide variety of setups to their applications. Examples of these switch functions are the CSA (Cardioid Subwoofer Array) and HFC (High Frequency Compensation) modes. CSA increases low frequency directivity control by minimising energy transmission towards the rear while HFC compensates for air absorption for loudspeakers covering far field listening positions. In addition to these functions, d&b amplifiers offer a comprehensive set of specific filters such as CUT, a cut mode for TOP loudspeakers when used with d&b subwoofers; CPL, to compensate for the coupling effect between loudspeakers in close proximity to other loudspeakers or hard objects and HFA D80 30D D20 10D D6 User interface Encoder/colour TFT touchscreen LED indicators Encoder/colour TFT touchscreen LED indicators Encoder/LC display Output channels 4 4 4 4 2 Input channels 4 x AES3 or 4 x analog or 2 x AES3 and 2 x analog 4 x AES3 and 4 x analog 4 x AES3 or 4 x analog or 2 x AES3 and 2 x analog 4 x AES3 and 4 x analog 2 x AES3 or 2 x analog Latency 0.3 msec 0.3 msec 0.3 msec 0.3 msec 0.3 msec User equalizers (per channel) 2 x 16-band 2 x 16-band 2 x 16-band 2 x 16-band 4-band Delay 10 sec/3440 m 10 sec/3440 m 10 sec/3440 m 10 sec/3440 m 340 msec/116.9 m Maximum output power (THD+N < 0.5%, 12 dB crest factor) 4 x 2000 W into 8 ohms 4 x 4000 W into 4 ohms 4 x 800 W into 8 ohms 4 x 1600 W into 4 ohms 4 x 800 W into 8 ohms 4 x 1600 W into 4 ohms 4 x 350 W into 8 ohms 4 x 700 W into 4 ohms 2 x 350 W into 8 ohms 2 x 600 W into 4 ohms Output routing Dual Channel, Mix TOP/SUB 2-Way Active Dual Channel, Mix TOP/SUB 2-Way Active Dual Channel, Mix TOP/SUB 2-Way Active Dual Channel, Mix TOP/SUB 2-Way Active Dual Channel Output connectors NL4/EP5 plus central NL8 Phoenix Euroblock NL4 plus central NL8 Phoenix Euroblock NL4 GPIO connector, 5 ports No Phoenix Euroblock No Phoenix Euroblock No Cable compensation LoadMatch LoadMatch LoadMatch LoadMatch No Power supply Autosensing switched mode power supply with active PFC Universal range switched mode power supply with active PFC Universal range switched mode power supply with active PFC Universal range switched mode power supply with active PFC Autosensing switched mode power supply with active PFC Mains voltage 100 - 127/208 - 240 V, 50 - 60 Hz 100 - 240 V, 50 - 60 Hz 100 - 240 V, 50 - 60 Hz 100 - 240 V, 50 - 60 Hz 100 - 120/220 - 240, 50 - 60 Hz Weight (kg/lb) 19/42 10.6/23.4 10.8/23.8 10.6/23.4 8/17.6 Dimensions 2 RU x 19" x 530 mm 2 RU x 19" x 435 mm 2 RU x 19" x 460 mm 2 RU x 19" x 435 mm 2 RU x 19" x 353 mm Remote OCA via Ethernet/CAN OCA via Ethernet/CAN OCA via Ethernet/CAN OCA via Ethernet/CAN CAN The d&b amplifiers are designed specifically to power d&b loudspeakers and are the beating heart of the d&b System reality. As such, they incorporate Digital Signal Processing for comprehensive loudspeaker management, switchable filter functions, remote capabilities and user-definable controls, to fulfil the exact needs of each application. Every loudspeaker configuration combines comprehensive system limiting, and equalization and crossover settings to ensure consistent results and optimal performance. d&b amplifiers offer mode, to attenuate the high frequencies of a loudspeaker to mimic the effect of far field listening. These devices offer extended, user-definable equalization and delay capabilities, eliminating the need for external processing devices in the signal chain. All d&b amplifiers integrate with the d&b Remote network to enable the remote control and management of systems from anywhere within a network. Further information is provided in the d&b Amplifier and Software brochure which is available for download at www.dbaudio.com. Comparison of the d&b amplifiers Airflow 30 d&b Y-Series d&b Y-Series 31 The operation with d&b amplifiers The Y-Series frequency responses Amplifier controller setups 10 10 5 5 Arc and Line setups The Arc mode is intended for line array loudspeakers when used in curved array sections. The Line mode is used for long throw array sections with three or more consecutive splay settings of 0°, 1° or 2°. Compared to the Arc mode, the mid/high range is reduced to compensate for the extended near field. CUT mode Set to CUT, the cabinet low frequency level is reduced and is configured for use with d&b active subwoofers. HFC mode Selecting the HFC (High Frequency Compensation) mode compensates for loss of high frequency energy due to absorption in air when loudspeakers are used to cover far field listening positions. HFC has two settings which should be used selectively, HFC1 for cabinets covering distances larger than 25 m (82 ft) and HFC2 for those covering distances larger than 50 m (164 ft). This can be used to achieve the correct sound balance between close and remote audience areas allowing all amplifiers driving the array to be fed from the same signal source. Thus the whole array performs with comparable headroom. HFA mode In HFA mode (High Frequency Attenuation), the HF response of the system is rolled off. The HFA provides a natural, balanced frequency response when a unit is placed close to listeners in near field or delay use. HFA begins gradually at 1 kHz, dropping by approximately 3 dB at 10 kHz. This roll off mimics the decline in frequency response experienced when listening to a system from a distance in a typically reverberant room or auditorium. CPL function The CPL (Coupling) function compensates for coupling effects between the cabinets of an array. CPL begins gradually around 1 kHz, with the maximum attenuation below 100 Hz. As coupling effects increase with the length of the line array, the CPL circuit can be set to dB attenuation values between 0 and –9. 100 Hz mode The 100 Hz mode limits the upper operating frequency of the subwoofer to 100 Hz, complementing top cabinets in full range mode. CSA mode CSA (Cardioid Subwoofer Array) mode enables the combination of three or multiples of three B6-SUB cabinets within an array producing exceptional low frequency directivity control. The amplifier channel for the centre subwoofer of the column, which is physically pointed to the rear, has CSA selected. The forward facing cabinets are driven with an amplifier channel set in the standard mode. The resulting cardioid behaviour of the array will significantly reduce the energy radiated to the rear. For further information please refer to the d&b TI 330 Cardioid Subwoofer Array, which is available for download at www.dbaudio.com.

Positioned within the signal chain in front of the amplifiers, this 1 RU device expands the d&b system approach. Each unit can deliver up to sixteen Dante network channels via AES3 digital signal outputs. Additionally, four AES3 input channels provide access to the Dante audio network for applications such as a break-in from a Front of House console. The DS10 incorporates an integrated 5-port switch, offering a primary and redundant network for the Dante protocol, as well as advanced functions such as Multicast Filtering and VLAN modes. Using the DS10 Audio network bridge, audio signals and remote control data can be combined using a single Ethernet cable. DS100 Signal Engine The d&b DS100 Signal Engine is the platform underneath the Soundscape, based on a specialized rack mount 3 RU audio processor with Audinate Dante networking. It provides a 64 x 64 audio matrix with level and delay adjustments at all cross points. Additional software modules provide dynamic source positioning and emulated acoustics functions. The DS100 is a versatile tool for use within complex audio systems to route and distribute multiple audio channels to numerous amplifiers driving loudspeaker positions and zones, show relay and break out rooms. The networking capabilities with a Dante enabled processor are significant, particularly for busy, multi-room complexes. The DS100 completely integrates with the overall d&b system approach, including loudspeakers, amplifiers, rigging, transport and networking accessories and the DS10 Audio network bridge.
