Twenty-two different box shapes are available as shown below: Not shown are the "Description", "Response" and "External" tabs.īassBox Pro models a wide variety of box types including closed, vented, vented with active HP EQ filter (B6), single-tuned and double-tuned bandpass and passive radiator boxes as shown below: The third illustration shows the "Dimensions" tab containing the driver's outer shape, piston type, dimensions and volume settings. An "expert mode" is available to analyze driver parameters for errors. If the driver has a dual voice coil, separate parameters can be entered for each of the three voice coil wiring methods (separate, parallel and series). "Net" parameters are displayed when more than one driver is specified. The second illustration shows the "Parameters" tab containing the driver's Thiele-Small and electromechanical parameters. Notice above that the mechanical configuration settings include compound or isobaric and push-pull. The first illustration shows the "Configuration" tab where the number of drivers and their mechanical and electrical configurations are set. Three of its six tabs are displayed below. Like many windows in BassBox Pro, the Driver Properties window uses tabs to organize the information. The driver information can be entered manually, imported from another BassBox Pro or BassBox Lite speaker design file, imported from the CLIO or LAUD measurement systems, or it can be loaded from BassBox Pro's extensive driver database. Information about a driver is contained in the Driver Properties window. A summary of the driver and box parameters is listed in a text box.īassBox Pro includes the world's largest database of driver parameters! Users can add, edit or delete drivers and the database can be searched by manufacturer, driver model name, driver parameters or suitability for a closed or vented box. A small picture beside each mini graph displays the box type that has been selected (closed, vented, bandpass or passive radiator). These preview graphs are automatically updated whenever a design is altered, providing "real time" feedback. Up to ten designs can be open simultaneously.Ī mini preview graph is provided for each design to show its amplitude response. The centerpiece of BassBox Pro is its resizable main window (shown below) that includes a summary of all open designs. In this way it serves as a "smart" assistant to help you use the program. It can start with either the driver or the box and then it will walk you through BassBox Pro as it prompts you for information in an orderly progression. Box designs can also be duplicated so that driver or box information does not need to be re-entered.īassBox Pro includes a powerful Design Wizard (shown below) to help new users quickly design a speaker. As many as ten different designs can be open at the same time. For example, BassBox Pro can estimate the in-car response in the graphs to show how the speaker will sound to passengers inside a car.Įach box design can be saved and re-opened or re-used later. This can include the effects of the acoustical environment.
