For calibration of theaters or mixing rooms, SMPTE targets maybe be used with a choice depending on room size. Other possibilities are AES and B&amp;K bin some cases. The new &#8220;Dolby Atmos Music&#8221; target has been added to comply to Dolby Home Entertainment specifications.<\/li>\n<li>\u201cTimbre target\u201d (only valid if \u201cAuto music\u201d is choosen) : the standard \u201cBalanced\u201d can be adjusted on user preferences to Bright (sharp, more high frequencies) or Warm (darker, more low frequencies). Difference to \u201cBalanced\u201d is a slope of approximatively +-0.3dB\/oct (exact value depends on measurements,\u00a0 distances and directivity) so nearly +2dB at 10kHz for \u201cSharp\u201d and -2dB at 10kHz for \u201cWarm\u201d. If those standard &#8220;bright, balanced, warm&#8221; don&#8217;t exactly fit your needs, you may ajust by modifying your volume or distance values : increase volume or decrease distance brings you more in direct sound so targets change a bit to more &#8220;bright&#8221;.<\/li>\n<li>\u201cLF target\u201d (only valid if \u201cAuto music\u201d\u00a0 or &#8220;Auto cinema&#8221; is choosen) : low frequency target is defined by cutoff frequency and level under 100Hz ie\u00a0 \u201c409\u201d means a 40Hz cut and +9dB level. Level at cutoff freq and at 130Hz is 0.5*max level. As LF target Auto is optimised for both speakers together (L+R) but relative to L and R separated, so to get a flat response for each separated channels, choose a value ending with 0 (ie 400 or 600), because L+R in low frequencies gives nearly +3 or 4 dB (or +6dB for a common subwoofer) compared to response of L or R separated. With lower taps value (ie 3072 or less), to get expected response (see simulations in p7)\u00a0 better use 100\/103\/106 values to avoid adding a cutoff to the correction already limited by number of taps. Please note that before 24\/08\/24, the target was given for L+R, now it is for each channel separated, ie if you choose 603 before, now you would choose 600.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>After the target curve is calculated, it is available in &#8216;My measurements&#8217; as &#8216;target.drc&#8217; so you may use this target for other purposes or in another correction software.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.loudspeakers.audio\/faqs\/how-do-i-found-my-ideal-house-curve\/\">Read more on this topic here.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class='ewd-ufaq-permalink'>\n\t\n\t<a href='https:\/\/www.loudspeakers.audio\/en\/faqs\/target-curve-timbre-target-lftarget\/single-faq\/target-curve-timbre-target-lftarget\/'>\n\t\t\n\t\tPermalink\t\t\t\n\t<\/a>\n\n<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class='ewd-ufaq-faq-custom-fields'>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>B Target curve, timbre target, LF target Following fields are needed for the calculation of your optimised target curve : Field \u201cTarget curve\u201d : \u201cAuto music\u201d is recommended for home HiFi and pro music studios.
