The directivity data of the loudspeaker I want to model is not available in the CLF format.
Assist the CLF-group by encouraging the manufacturer to make such data available. Free tools for this purpose can be obtained at clfgroup.org.
How do I use a CLF file?
It is recommended to download and install the CLF viewer, supplied here, so that you can see all the details described by the directivity file. One of the important parameters in the CLF file is the sensitivity of the loudspeaker, i.e. the SPL 1 m away, for a given (electrical) input. The input can be […]
What is a directivity file?
A directivity file describes how power is distributed around a source for different frequency bands. For instance, loudspeakers typically are highly directive at high frequencies, so that most of the sound power is emitted in front of it. The standard format for making loudspeaker directivity files is called Common Loudspeaker Format (CLF) and was developed […]
