Trinity 10 Advanced Robotic Line Array

Trinity 10 is the first mid sized, three-dimensionally controlled sound

system that is configured remotely, capable of focusing sound exactly

where it is intended. The robotic line array provides a completely new

set of tools that equips advanced users with unparalleled control

over the vertical and horizontal polar directivity of the entire array.

Using PK's Kontrol™ loudspeaker management software coupled with

electronic actuators housed in each module, engineers are equipped

to make adjustments to the line array remotely and instantly with the

touch of a button. Trinity 10 brings world class sound field control to

mid-size line arrays.

DATA SHEET version 1.0

By design, Trinity 10 is voiced exactly the same as the larger Trinity

module. By using the same high and mid frequency components and

waveguide design, PK’s engineers have ensured seamless integration

when the two modules are used together.

The Coherent Midrange Integrator (CMI) seamlessly combines

mid and high frequencies, coupled with precisely spaced low

frequency apertures for smooth and controlled directivity. The CMI

waveguide is variably adjustable from 50°-120° both symmetrically

and asymmetrically. The ability to focus the sound field increases

long throw capability by increasing sensitivity of the loudspeaker.

Dual bandpass loaded, 10” transducers provide increased accuracy

and output compared to traditional 10” front loaded designs. Two

6.5” midrange transducers are coupled to a CMI waveguide through

specifically designed phase plugs that increase sensitivity while

ensuring seamless integration with high frequencies. A dual driver

high frequency compression device coupled directly to an integrated

planar waveguide, dramatically reduces the overall length and internal

diffraction and significantly reduces distortion across the entire high

frequency band. A 3000w Class D amplifier maximizes headroom

while maintaining crystal clear audio and providing exceptional output.

PK’s Kontrol™ software provides full remote control of all DSP functions

as well as the vertical and horizontal directivity of the array. This allows

the array to be flown straight significantly reducing setup time and

allows adjustment of any array characteristic after it has been flown.

Upon discovery Kontrol™ Auto-Array feature communicates with each

module and automatically arranges modules into the proper position

in each array, removing the time consuming process of manually

arranging elements. The software provides real time feedback of key

module parameters during show operation giving users a simple and

intuitive interface to monitor system operation.

Local control on each module allows access to key functionality

without the need for a network providing flexibility in setup. The

weatherproof amplifier plate and interconnects ensure consistent

performance in demanding outdoor conditions without the need for

additional protection.

Trinity 10’s Auto-Align rigging is remotely adjustable from 0° - 12° in

0.1° increments and is specifically designed to simplify the module

connection process during array suspension. The unique rigging

system reduces time and increases safety by removing cumbersome

rigging links. The tapered rigging system automatically aligns when

lowered to allow quick release pins to be inserted with ease. To further

reduce setup time the system stacks efficiently on carts four or six high

with the flybar remaining attached during transport.

DATA SHEET version 1.0

Trinity 10 uses electronic actuators located in each loudspeaker module

to mechanically control the horizontal and vertical directivity of the

array by changing the shape of the array as well as the directivity of

each individual module. The embedded systems in each module which

control the actuation system are connected over a network, allowing

PK’s Kontrol™ software to remotely access the internal functions

of each module and provide safety and DSP functions. Three-

dimensional control of the sound field directivity is achieved through

the combination of the two subsystems. Adjustment in the Y-Z plane

is accomplished by curving the array and adjustment in the X-Z plane

by changing the horizontal directivity of the module. Adjustment of

the vertical directivity of the array is accomplished through the rigging

system where linear actuators on each side of the array are used to

change the inter-module angles. This allows the system to be remotely

and continuously adjusted with 0.1° accuracy after the array has been

flown. Adjustment in the horizontal plane is achieved through actuation

of the CMI waveguide which controls the directivity of the mid and

high frequency sections. The waveguide is capable of adjustment from

120° to 50° in 10° increments both symmetrically and asymmetrically.

Trinity 10 provides 25 individual horizontal directivity options that can

be arranged in any order in the array and fine-tuned on the fly to make

meaningful changes. This flexibility allows users to change the directivity

of the system to suit any number of audience configurations in a

multitude of different venues. A specifically designed combination of

FIR and IRR filters ensure a smooth and consistent frequency response

at every point in the sound field.
