Self-powered systems remove prediction variables such as amplifier type, amplifier output configuration, and loudspeaker cable length, which translates to a simpler, more accurate design process. MAPP 3D leverages the inherent advantages of working with loudspeakers that are self-powered and manufactured to extremely tight tolerances for uniformity of performance. Leveraging the Advantages of Powered Systems Because MAPP 3D includes sensitivity data for all Meyer Sound loudspeakers, it can display predictions as real-world SPL as well as attenuation. MAPP 3D’s ability to store and recall traces makes it easy to view combined systems and verify headroom. In addition to traditional testing signals, MAPP 3D uses M‑Noise to predict headroom and linear peak SPL with music. Highly linear sound systems deliver consistent response at any output level. In short, your results with MAPP 3D’s virtual microphones will be the same as results achieved using physical microphones. Predictions are accurate across a full frequency bandwidth, extending as low as 12.5 Hz. You’ll be making fewer onsite adjustments, thanks to superior accuracy in every step of system design: 3D loudspeaker performance is based on more than 65,000 three-dimensional measurement points, taken in 1/48th-octave resolution in Meyer Sound’s anechoic chamber. MAPP 3D can import CAD, and SketchUp files, and can snap to objects within the imported files-there’s no guesswork, no tedious typing in coordinates. Build and refine three-dimensional designs down to the smallest detail with MAPP 3D’s suite of sophisticated design tools, from a built-in drawing program to a collection of design objects representing a range of traditional stage shapes.


Take Your Ideas From Concept to Reality Full Design Visualization MAPP 3D software relies on local processing no Internet connection is required. Layer-management features make quick work of refining models.


You can input multiple systems, build immersive systems, model gradient subwoofer arrays, and other custom configurations. MAPP 3D’s intuitive interface supports multiple loudspeakers, arrays, and measurement microphones. From system design to on-site optimization to post-event analysis, MAPP 3D simplifies workflows and streamlines crew resources.
