Sound schematic

[Sulumar]

Hi

Is there a kind soul who could point me in the direction of an example sound schematic for a theatre venue showing speaker placement? Ideally a CAD drawing. I've hunted through Google but can't seem to find what I'm looking for.

Many thanks.

Is this a theoretical exercise (in which case a library may be more use than google) or are you trying to design a real sound system (in which case it's impossible to give an answer without knowing anything about the space)?

I could probably dig out a plan for something, but it'll just be a ground plan with some speakers drawn on, and some annotations as to what speakers on what circuits. Increasingly we're combining this info on to the main groundplan to allow for other depts to check clearances etc.

I'd usually consider the schematic to be more of the documenting of all the surrounding data. For me this is usually a large excel file with multiple sheets.

In past days the system schematic would be more akin to a circuit diagram, but this format is increasingly less helpful for big digital systems.
