Active Assist™ Introduction Tannoy Activ-Assist™ software has been designed by Tannoy to assist users of Reveal and Precision active monitors in setting the DIP switch equalisation features on the amplifier. These adjustments account for mid, near and close field monitoring distances and varying air loading on the bass driver caused by operating in half, quarter and eighth space environments (sometimes referred to as ‘Baffle Step’ effect). Typically, these environments could be against a wall or on a table or large support surface such as the meter bridge of a console (half space), in a corner (quarter space) or a worst-case situation such as mounted in a corner on a shelf or table or in a typical outside broadcast mobile vehicle (eighth space). The software requires a typical Windows or MAC notebook, laptop or desktop computer with a standard sound card input / output facility. Activ-Assist™ is available as a free download,
