RAINBOW 3D Acoustic Prediction Software

Lynx Pro Audio’s R&D department is working on Rainbow 3D, a new acoustic simulation software with dynamic 
3D features. With a sophisticated design, Rainbow 3D stands out for its speed, being able to provide a simulation 
in just a few seconds. It also provides algorithms for beam steering and optimizing the listening area.

• 

Designed from scratch by professionals

Rainbow 3D has been programmed from scratch by Lynx Pro Audio engineers, using new programming procedures 
that achieve an effective simulation with really low calculation time. 

• 

Multiple listening zones

The program can simulate all Lynx Pro Audio’s acoustic enclosures located in a 3D space, including the classic 
side, top and front views. It can also define multiple listening zones and allows offset positioning and symmetry. 
Blueprint images, textures and PNG format pictures can be imported.

• 

Unlimited sound sources

Allows the acoustic simulation for an unlimited number of sound sources and audio systems. You can place as 
many systems (subwoofers, line arrays, columns and individual boxes) as you desire. Also, the line arrays can be 
placed in stack or flown configuration.

• 

Beam steering 

Rainbow 3D has the ability to add DSP processing to the simulation and uses algorithms to control the directivity 
(beam steering) in columns, without the need to tilt them physically, being able to divide the column into several 
beams that point to different zones.

• 

Accurate optimization thanks to FIR filters 

Optimized algorithms are used in the listening area to improve the sound coverage and the frequency response. This 
feature can be executed in a matter of seconds. Additionally, the export of FIR coefficients can be performed with 
the optimization for later loading in the DSP via Ethernet or a USB device. In the near future direct communication 
with Lynx Pro Audio and OCS will be available.

• 

Multiple measures and tools

Likewise, the R&D department is developing multiple measurement and analysis tools for the calculated data. For 
example, the sound pressure curves (SPL) in the listening areas and the capture of virtual measurements that show 
the frequency response in the points of location indicated and added. Among other tools you will find autosplay 
and a wizard to set up different subwoofer arragements.
