StudioLive AI-Series SL328 3-way active loudspeakers combine high power and advanced coaxial configuration with the most powerful DSP engine ever built into a compact PA system. Through seamlessly integrated software, StudioLive AI speakers can be set-up, adjusted and continuously monitored via wired or wireless remote control using Windows, OSX or iPad
Advanced 24-bit floating point digital signal processing.StudioLive AI-Series loudspeakers were tuned by master speaker designer Dave Gunness using Fulcrum Acoustic's trademarked Temporal Equalization algorithms. Previously possible only using powerful outboard rack processors, TQ is used to manage horn reflection, linear time and amplitude anomalies correction, performance contouring, and dynamic and excursion limiting.
The result is a coaxial speaker system with:
- Crisper stereo image
- Greater soundstage depth
- More separation between complex mix components
- Increased resistance to feedback
- More seamless transitions between distributed loudspeakers
- Less fatiguing listening experience at very high SPLs
- Exceptional clarity and coherence
The robust on-board CPU in all StudioLive AI speakers also makes possible an extensive set of control features for customizing and optimizing the system and for monitoring and fine-tuning performance in real time.
Since system EQ can be set-up per speaker independently of a mixer, mixer output EQs are freed up for other uses.
SL Room Control software provides each full-range model with wired and wireless remote control of:
- Speaker group 31-band graphic EQ
- 8-band parametric EQ
- 10 notch filters
- Variable high pass filter
- Speaker delay (up to 250 ms)
- Mute and Solo
- Output level
Performance monitoring constantly provides information for:
- Excursion limiting
- Over temperature
- ADC clip detection
- Power-amp soft limiting
Other SL Room Control features include:
- Network setup wizard and network scanning to automatically detect all speakers
- Network browser
- Group speaker management with GEQ, Mute, and Solo
- EQ Preset Browser
- Custom labels for each speaker
- Preset Save and Load
- Creation of on-board user presets or use away from SL Room Control
All these DSP features are wirelessly controllable from SL Room Control for iPad, OS X, and Windows.
