Now in its fifth round of updates since launching at the end of 2022, HOLOPLOT Plan v0.12.5 is the most important update to our sound system design software, advancing the user’s workflow.

 

Introducing Zone Drawing

• This eagerly awaited functionality allows for zones to be created directly within the application. Whether designing simple layouts or getting started quickly without relying on SketchUp imports, Zone Drawing further empowers users and their workflow.

 

• SketchUp remains the recommended option for those working on designs with complex layouts.

 

New Simulation Engine

• HOLOPLOT Plan now improves direct sound predictions and enhances the low-frequency behaviour of beams generated by HOLOPLOT Matrix Arrays, thanks to an update to product’s core algorithms which are fundamental to Matrix Arrays.

 

• The proprietary software engine is able to include the so-called baffle and edge diffraction effects, which are crucial for two-dimensional arrays like HOLOPLOT Matrix Arrays. These are particularly noticeable in the low frequencies and get more relevant for system designs featuring larger Matrix Arrays. Taking the effects of the dimensions of the array into account during simulation and beam optimization allows for a boost in performance and unmatched accuracy of predicted system design results.

 

Camera Improvements

• Navigating through the viewport is now smoother than ever using enhanced camera mechanics. The camera zoom mechanism has been fine-tuned, slowing it down as obstacles are approaching, creating a more precise navigation experience.

 

With each software update to the HOLOPLOT software suite the systems continue to evolve, pushing the boundaries of sound control and redefining what’s possible in audio.

Upgrade to the latest version now to unlock a world of improved sound system design possibilities.
