Reference Manual

In the above example, you see three sets of speakers: main front-of-house,
sidefills for the middle of the room, and rear fills for the back. As a general
rule, you should set the delay on a satellite system based on its distance
from the next closest system to the mains. In this case, you’ll set the delay
on the sidefills based on their distance from the main front-of-house system
and the delay for the rear fills based on their distance from the sidefills.
When using the SSD wizard for the above system, you would run the
wizard four times. The first time, you’d use the main front-of-house left
for the main system and the left sidefill for the delay system. The second
time, you will use the left sidefill as the main system and the left rear-fill
for the delay system. Then repeat the procedure for the right side.
Note: it is important that you set the delay on the first satellite pair
before you set the delay on the subsequent satellite pair.
Power User Tip: Because rooms often have inconveniently placed architectural features—
fire exits, tables, and so on—the left and right side of a system with satellites will rarely
be equidistant on both sides of the system. Because of this, you need to run the wizard
for each side of a stereo system, starting at the front and working your way to the back.
Please note: the SSD wizard is not designed to analyze systems that include a subwoofer.
Temporarily disconnect or disable your subwoofer before beginning analysis.
