1Introduction

Thank you for choosing a Trinnov digital audio processor.

This User Guide is organized in the following chapters:

Introduction: describes the main features of the Optimizer,

Getting Started: provides a step-by-step guide to set up your system and configure the metering

solution,

Hardware Guide: describes the audio interfaces used in the Ovation, the 3D measurement

microphone, the different remote options and update/support procedure,

Startup Options,

System Software Guide: describes all the pages of the Processor module, the core software and

the loudspeaker/room optimization module,

Appendix.

1.1 Main Features of the OVATION

The Ovation provides all the functionalities expected from a high quality and advanced digital audio

processor:

routing and level settings of inputs and outputs

word clock input and output

remote control options via Ethernet network

Presets/Profiles save, backup and restore

peak level metering of inputs and outputs

calibrated, global gain/volume adjustments

monitoring controller

This allows to integrate the Ovation into any commercial cinema environment and to meet the highest

standards for sound quality and system flexibility and reliability.

1.1.1 Equalization

The Ovation is very useful including the Trinnov advanced technology Optimizer as it offers a

comprehensive set of tools to fine-tune the results of the automated correction. This is usually done by

using a separate acoustic measurements system to measure the results of the automatic optimization

and improve them.

Two different tools are offered:

State-of-the-art FIR EQ: based on Finite Impulse Response filters, the Optimizer's FIR EQ allows

for accurate equalization without introducing additional phase problems.

1/3-octave EQ: 31 band Graphic Equalizers are also provided in order to support established

methodologies and standards.

1.1.2 Active Crossovers

The Ovation features 2-ways, 3-ways and 4-ways active crossovers. Depending on the chosen audio

interface, these crossovers may be used on up to 24 output channels. This makes Ovation a

comprehensive equalization and affordable crossover solution for cinema sound systems.

Trinnov Ovation User’s Guide–February 2018 6/79

1.2 Main Features of the Optimizer module

The Optimizer Runtime and the Optimizer Toolbox are complementary. As a whole, we simply call it the

Optimizer. Its main features are as follows.

1.2.1 Level and Time Alignment

Based on its own acoustic measurements, the Optimizer automatically aligns the relative levels of each

loudspeaker, and applies delays to time-align the system. This can be disabled in the Optimizer

Settings/Runtime page, and may be configured separately for the front and surround loudspeakers in the

Optimizer Settings/Settings/Advanced Settings page.

The Optimizer also levels and delays of multi-amps speakers allonwing to have the best aligment of

speaker ways.

The Optimizer also calibrates the absolute level.

1.2.2 Automatic Optimization

The Optimizer uses state-of-the art time-frequency algorithms to analyze calibration measurements and

uses specific methods to compensate for direct sound, first reflections, late reflections/reverberation and

room modes. All thesubtlety of the Optimizer resides in knowing which defects may be corrected without

creating additional problems.

Improved Phase Response: the Optimizer corrects the frequency response of the speakers, both

in amplitude and phase. This means that the Optimizer corrects both the tonal balance to obtain

a neutral timbre for every speaker and it also works in the time domain to achieve a high

resolution stereophonic image with well-focused phantom sources.

Target Curves: the Optimizer automatically defines the filters that will achieve the required

frequency response defined by a target curve. This is particularly useful in order to comply with

the X-Curve SMPTE and ISO standards. Phase and Group Delay targets may also be defined,

making the Optimizer a unique tool for sound system designers.

Fine-tuning options: the Optimizer provides over 12 different parameters, such as maximum

boost/cut, to customize the behaviour of the room correction algorithms. This opens many

possibilities for fine-tuning the sound according to loudspeaker capabilities and listening tests.

1.3 Access levels

There is 4 access levels in the Ovation:

Operator: default level when you power-on the machine. Normal use level,

Manager: give access to Profiles configuration, need Login and password.

Consultant: give access to global settings of the processor and Eqs on input and output channels.

Need Login and password.

Administrator: highest access level, give access to all parameters of the machine and calibration

procedure. Level securized with Login and password.

Trinnov Ovation User’s Guide–February 2018 7/79

Default Login and password:

Manager level: login = advanced1, password = advanced1,

Consultant level: login = advanced2, password = advanced2,

Administrator level: login = fulladmin, password =fulladmin.

Be careful with processor levels access and passwords. We recommend to change passwords

for new processors and keep the new ones confidential. You cannot modify Login.

NOTE: you always must type Login in lowercase. If you have passwords with upper and lowercase, you

must respect the character’s case.

2Getting Started

2.1 Power on and Shutdown

2.1.1 Power on

Important Note: don’t forget that the speakers/amplifiers should always be powered up last.

Before connecting the power cord (1) to the electric installation, make sure the rear panel Main Power

switch is « OFF » position and the front panel PC power switch is « O» position.

The rear panel Main power switch (2) always needs to be pressed first to supply the apparatus with

electricity.

The front panel power switch (3) shall then be used to start the apparatus. It should illuminate the PC

powered led after a few seconds. The back panel power switch always needs to be pressed first to supply

the apparatus with electricity.

During the boot sequence of the Ovation, the

following page appears on user’s screen:

The boot sequence ended, the operating page

appears on user’s screen:

NOTE: It is possible to set the screen’s contrast by turning the ‘Level’ knob while pushing

simultaneously on the ‘Back’ button.

50 Hz / 60 Hz

2: Main power

3: Front panel

power switch

Trinnov Ovation User’s Guide–February 2018 9/79

2.1.2 Shutdown

Ovation requires pushing the Front panel power switch once to initiate normal shut down.

It is recommanded to wait 15 to 30s between firstly switching off the Front panel power switch and

then the Main power switch on the rear panel.

2.2 User Interface

2.2.1 Connection to the Ovation

There are two ways to interface Ovation processor with users:

KVM (Keyboard/Vidéo/Mouse):

Via VNC on Ethernet port :

These 2 possibilities can be combined and show the same views.

VNC procedure:

After installing on your laptop, launch VNC viewer (for example VNC-5.0.3-Windows.exe in the screenshots

below):

2. Launch the

connection

1. Type the

processor IP

address

Trinnov Ovation Calibration Guide - February 2018 Page 10/79

Confirm the connection by clicking on “Continue”:

Type the processor serial number on 6 digits: 000325 for the Ovation 325 for example. Serial number is

indicated on a sticker of the rear panel of the processor.

Then you will arrive to the Ovation GUI (General User Interface).

Ovation has a built-in VNC Server that allows you to fully control the processor from any VNC client host device

over the network.

In other words, VNC provides full control of the processor from a laptop (PC, Mac or Linux), smartphone or

tablet (iOS, Android, Blackberry, Nokia...).

2.2.2 Screenshots

Screenshots of the graphical interface can be stored during operation by pressing the “print screen” key on

a keyboard connected to the unit. These files then can be downloaded to a USB stick or through Ethernet.

3. Type the password =

processor serial number on 6

digits

4. Clic OK
