Hornresp manual

Here is a small hornresp manual. If you can now use it, just download it. Unfortunately, it is translated from Swedish with google translate so there may be errors due to the translation. There is also an error on page 23 the image in the middle should not be included.
Harald,

Thanks for the help!

Your manual is excellent for quickly visually locating the general type of design to simulate, with descriptions of how to enter the correct inputs to achieve it.

A few weeks ago I noticed the back loaded horn picture on page 23 under the "U shaped open Baffle", and was a bit confused initially, though mostly I was impressed by the clear depiction of many other features available since I'd last used Hornresp over three years before, while still using a much older version, perhaps from 2011.

In the recent Hornresp V53.20, vented-box enclosure system losses are taken into account using the QL quality factor parameter. The default value is 7 but the value can be adjusted between 1 and 99 by double-clicking on the input parameters window QL or Lossless label in edit mode.

I could not find any reference to the QL quality factor parameter in your manual.
What version of Hornresp was your manual based on?

Hi GM,

It should be possible to select the Filter Wizard from the Acoustical Power window, as shown in the attachment.

I'm not sure what you meant when you said earlier: "doing the filter first, then power works for me".
What window were you selecting the Filter Wizard from in that case?

Kind regards,

David

Acoustical Power/Tools/Filter Wizard, then Tools/Maximum SPL works fine

In the first case the filter wizard is applied to the Acoustical Power results. In the second case selecting the Maximum SPL tool is treated as a new operation and filter settings previously applied to the Acoustical Power results are not transferred across to the Maximum SPL results.

if I do Maximum SPL first, then Tools/Filter Wizard is grayed out.

That's because applying the filter wizard to the Maximum SPL results would make them effectively meaningless, bearing in mind that the Maximum SPL tool is intended to show the response achieved when constraints are imposed on amplifier power/voltage/current and driver input power/diaphragm displacement.

Hi,

I am intrigued as to why that Hornresp manual shows the bass reflex tube outlined "outside" of the acoustic cabinet, when instead it is usual for it to be placed "inside".

If I want to model “Rear Vented” with tube length "Lpt" placed inside the cabinet, do I need to subtract its volume from the acoustic volume Vrc of the cabinet? Does Lrc need to be adjusted in some proportion?

Thx!
 
The bass reflex tube outlined "outside" of the VRC (Volume Rear Chamber) makes it clear the volume of the port does not need to be subtracted from it.
LRC can be adjusted to roughly reflect the proportion of length vs height of the VRC.
 
Hello.

Please your help to simulate Loudspeaker Configuration = DBR in Hornresp v54.60

I am not getting it.
I follow the instructions and have selected Tool: Chamber Type > Rear Vented, then Loudspeaker Configuration > DBR , but the Input Parameters window still reports "OD" and even if double-cliking it to "DBR", it again reverts to "OD". What Im doing wrong?

The "Input Parameters" window does not show the same labels that appear in the manual.
