Introducing SPL Chart

Here is a list of all the SPL files currently supported:

Important changes!
Due to a change in the way phpbb uses it's bbcodes, the format of this tool has changed from

Code: Select all

[spl dbmin=80]DR200[/spl]
to

Code: Select all

[spl]DR200&dbmin=80[/spl]
I'll update all the examples accordingly and correct other posts as I go.

I've written a small tool that will allow you to insert any of the SPL charts into your posts defining the frequency range, dB range, graph size to name a few. The tool works just the same as the other tags, for example, if you wanted to insert an image you would use:

Code: Select all

[img]http://myimagehost.com/pic_of_my_cab.jpg[/img]
similarly, you use render your SPL chart in the same way:

Code: Select all

Syntax: [spl]<charts>&<arguments>[/spl]
The SPL tool accepts the following size arguments:

width - The width of the chart, maximum 800: width=650
height - The height of the chart, maximum 600: height=250
(the chart will increase its height for the chart details)

Code: Select all

[spl]DR200&width=650&height=250[/spl]


The SPL tool accepts the following frequency arguments:

fmin - The minimum displayed frequency: fmin=40
fmax - The maximum displayed frequency: fmax=250
fmark - Marks key frequency points in the chart, comma separated: fmark=40,70,1000

Code: Select all

[spl width=650&height=250&fmin=40&fmax=500]DR200[/spl]

Code: Select all

[spl]DR200&width=650&height=250&fmin=40&fmax=500&fmark=65,255,300[/spl]


The SPL tool accepts the following db arguments:

dbmin - The minimum displayed db: dbmin=80
dbmax - The maximum displayed db: dbmax=115
dbmark - Marks key db points in the chart, comma separated: dbmark=95,106

Code: Select all

[spl]DR200&width=650&height=250&dbmin=80&dbmax=115[/spl]

Code: Select all

[spl]DR200&width=650&height=250&dbmin=80&dbmax=115&dbmark=95,106[/spl]


You can also combine all the commands together:

Code: Select all

[spl]DR200&width=650&height=250&dbmin=80&dbmax=115&dbmark=95,106&fmin=40&fmax=500&fmark=65,255,300[/spl]


On any chart you can combine up to 9 different plots, you just specify the names comma separated:

Here is the DR range:

Code: Select all

[spl]DR200,DR250,DR280&width=650&height=250&dbmin=80&dbmax=115&fmin=40&fmax=20000[/spl]


Here is the OmniTop range:

Code: Select all

[spl]OT12P,OT212P,OT15P20M,OT215P,OT15D3015CDASD&width=650&height=250&dbmin=80&dbmax=115&fmin=40&fmax=20000[/spl]


Here is the Omni Range:

Code: Select all

[spl]O105D2510,O10D2510,O12,O15D3015&dbmin=80&dbmax=115&fmin=40&fmax=20000[/spl]


Here is the T39 range:

Code: Select all

[spl]T39W30D12,T39W20D10,T39W18D2010,T39W14D2010&width=650&height=250&dbmin=80&dbmax=115&fmin=20&fmax=200[/spl]


Here is the T48 range:

Code: Select all

[spl]T48W14DHL10C,T48W15D3012,T48W18D3015,T48W18D4012,T48W24D3012,T48W24D3015,T48W36D3015&width=650&height=250&dbmin=80&dbmax=115&fmin=20&fmax=200[/spl]


Here is the T30 range:

Code: Select all

[spl]T30W24D2010,T30W24D2010x2,T30W16D2010&width=650&height=250&dbmin=80&dbmax=115&fmin=20&fmax=200[/spl]


Here is the T36 range:

Code: Select all

[spl]T36W27D4012X2,T36W27D4012X2C2,T36W27D4012X2C4&dbmin=85&dbmax=125&fmin=20&fmax=200[/spl]


Here are other non BFM cabs/designs:

Code: Select all

[spl]8x10Sealed,JBLMRX525,Mackie1501,JBLSRX718&width=650&height=250&dbmin=80&dbmax=115&fmin=20&fmax=20000[/spl]


Here are some drivers:

Code: Select all

[spl]D2510,D2512,D3015LF,DBeta10,DBP102,DS2010&width=650&height=250&dbmin=60&dbmax=115&fmin=20&fmax=20000[/spl]


Here are some wedges:

Code: Select all

[spl]W8DLA8MB,W10,JBLVRX915M&dbmin=80&dbmax=115[/spl]



Yamaha series:

Code: Select all

[spl]Yamaha112V,Yamaha115V,Yamaha215V&dbmin=80&dbmax=115[/spl]


I haven't put in all the charts yet, but I'll be adding them all the time.

If you want an external chart Mackie,JBL,Yamaha etc. PM me the data or a chart image and I'll add it.

Chris, this is awesome! One question... can you share a list of all the possible model/width/driver combination you have data for? I'd hate to have to use trial-and-error all the time to see whether or not the chart data exists for a particular cab permutation.

Thanks for the great work!

Currently they are all listed in the top post!

Once I've imported them all I'll list the names and descriptions in a single post.

How can I define the dataset to chart a cab I've measured myself?

Ok so i just wanted to be the first to use Chris's new code to post up my own system. :D



This is a really useful tool!

You do realise you don't win a prize, especially considering if you would have waited a week I would be owning the 4x DR280's :twisted:

The DR's in the charts have the flat arrays. I have a chart for a 20 Piezo melded array which I will sample for overlaying.

What about the DR250 chart? What kind of piezo array is represented? Also, is it pre-throat filler, filter, etc. or does it include these mods?

Great tool, Chris.

Is there any way to use it outside of a post, other than just making a new topic and using preview?

I'm assuming that the charts are all premods, no throat fillers, no filters, no melded array unless specified. They are all taken from Bills existing charts - none of this data is new. I would say that the 250 is the flat 10 element piezo array.

I've added some driver charts as well.

Technically, Yes. But I don't want it using outside the site since Bill is paying for the bandwidth.

So, if you want to see a chart, you are stuck with the preview method.
