PRESS RELEASE
Genelec Loudspeaker Manager With AutoCal Now Available for Mac OS X
April 24, 2007
Advertisement Genelec announces that its Genelec Loudspeaker Manager™ (GLM™) software with AutoCal™ for the 8200 and 7200 DSP Series Monitors is now also available for the Intel and Power PC Macintosh® OS X platform (existing users should contact Genelec Inc. directly for update discs). Additionally, AutoCal has been updated to include Symmetrical Placement EQ™ which allows AutoCal to design one set of filters to be used for both loudspeakers forming a sonically symmetrical pair, for example the Left and Right Front loudspeakers. The latest software revision is version 1.1.0 for both platforms. The Genelec Loudspeaker Manager (GLM) software is a sophisticated computer program (Windows® XP and now Mac® OS X platforms) providing the necessary connectivity/control for all 8200 and 7200 DSP Series loudspeakers on the GLM Control Network. As many as 25 of the 8200 loudspeakers and 5 of the 7200 subwoofers are definable and controllable via standard CAT5 cabling. GLM allows multiple custom User Setups for various listening locations with all settings and functions able to be stored and exchanged between computer platforms in GLM setup or directly to each loudspeaker. Genelec's automated system calibration algorithm, AutoCal, combines decades of acoustic research along with the company's proprietary DSP and GLM network control. AutoCal supplies the industry's first integrated process for complete automated measurement, analysis and adjustment of every speaker on the network. Regarding the AutoCal technology, Bruce Bartone, National Sales Manager for Genelec Inc., stated, "In less time than it takes to make a cup of coffee, each speaker's acoustic performance in a full 5.1 system is correctly integrated and optimized within the listening environment. AutoCal technology builds on the decades of in-studio calibration and measurement services Genelec has provided worldwide that utilizes the on-board room response filters on every analog model. The benefits of monitor system calibration are now delivered to every customer with the DSP Series." As a logical extension of the 8000 Series Active Monitors, the Genelec DSP Series utilizes sophisticated digital signal processing to allow for all standard AES/EBU formats of digital audio. The 8200/7200 Series will accept sampling rates ranging from 32 kHz to 192 kHz. The 8200 Series will also accept traditional analog signals and perform with all the features and benefits of Genelec 8000 Series products.
