O-Line delivers consistent audio coverage with unprecedented accuracy in a wide variety of architectural environments, using only one amplifier channel per array in many applications. By utilizing a complement of unique, Martin Audio designed drivers, and mechanical alignment techniques, simple EQ and Limiting is the only processing required. A powerful software application provides extremely accurate intercabinet and array angles, in order to achieve optimum coverage over a predefined area. O-Line's aesthetically pleasing cabinet is finished in neutral light grey.
Each O-Line array is constructed by connecting together multiple array modules. Up to 24 modules can be connected where both high output and vertical focusing down to low/mid frequencies are required. Smaller numbers of modules (down to 4) can be used for shorter-throw applications, where vertical focusing of these frequencies is less important.
Rather than applying DSP to a traditional column, O-Line's vertical beam-forming is achieved by physically articulating individual array modules to curve the array. The actual array configuration for a specific venue is determined by powerful, patent pending optimization software which makes intelligent judgments about the ‘goodness’ of the array’s SPL distribution against objective target functions.
