Perhaps you’ve heard that our world-renowned Smart Active Monitors (SAM) and Genelec Loudspeaker Manager (GLM) software provide an extremely precise and easy way to automatically handle loudspeaker calibration, while GLM’s GRADE Report helps you understand how your loudspeaker placement and room acoustics are performing. These are amazing tools, yet to fully understand what calibration can and cannot do, and get the absolute most from your SAM Monitoring, it’s first good to learn the basics of loudspeaker placement and room acoustics.

So, make sure to watch our on-demand free webinar (originally live-streamed on the 4th of April 2024), where our expert host Marcel Schechter will guide you through the foundations of the subject.

During the webinar, Marcel will offer an overview of the relationship between the loudspeakers and the room, how you can implement proper loudspeaker placement, how the unwanted effects of room acoustics can be minimised and what you should look out for when designing your monitoring system and room.
