CHAPTER 7
Using SIM 3
Measurements can be started in any of the views, but it is best to work in a particular order.
Band Spectrum / Line Spectrum: Begin with the spectrum — at least for the first
measurements — to determine the frequency content and amplitude of the audio signal.
TIP: These measurements are also useful for reviewing the performance
characteristics of the console and the other system electronics, and verifying
their functions.
Delay Finder: Before going to Frequency Response and storing traces for comparison,
each branch needs to be viewed in Delay Finder and the correct delay times set.
NOTE: As discussed in the Delay Finder section, the Console, Processor,
and Microphone points must be synchronized in order to make a valid
measurement.
Frequency Response: When making Frequency Response measurements, a methodical
process is usually best. The Modes menu with its various choices (Single System, Lobe
Study, Combined Systems, etc.) is designed to aid this process.
TIP: SIM School classes and the Meyer Sound Handbook are good sources to
learn more about Modes and other measurement techniques. Learn more at
www.meyersound.com/events/seminars.
7.3.3. Restarting a Measurement (Restart/Pause buttons)
It is possible with SIM 3 to pause a Live trace measurement to ease comparison with stored
measurements, and to restart a measurement.
Pause (Space Bar) — temporarily stops the movement of the trace (when not paused,
new data is continually being acquired and calculated).
TIP: Pause can also be enabled by tapping the Space bar on the SIM 3
keyboard. This works as a toggle switch for pausing the acquisition of data.
