Speaker Positions

About the coordinate formats

Speaker Positions for the studios are supplied both in cartesian and in spherical coordinate systems.

Cartesian:

the y axis points in the viewing direction when sitting in the center of the room and looking at speaker 1, the x axis points to the right.

Spherical:

azimuth/elevation/distance coordinates are given in degrees. azimuth =0° points in the viewing direction when sitting in the center of the room and looking at speaker. Azimuth increases counter-clockwise. The ceiling speaker is at elevation =90°

  • Small Studio Dome xyz/aed
  • Large Studio Dome: xyz/aed
    • coordinate origin is set below the ceiling speaker, 1.13m above the ground
