Design · Sound & Lighting

See it and hear it before we install it.

Every Wilson Pro AVL system starts as a 3D model of your room. We design sound with Meyer Sound MAPP 3D and lighting with Capture, so you can see the coverage, hear the plan and walk through the lighting before a single speaker is hung or a fixture is ordered.

Wilson Pro AVL design process
01 / Survey

Walk the Room

We visit your space, take measurements and talk through how your services and events really run.

02 / Model

Build It in 3D

Your room is modeled in 3D from drawings, CAD or SketchUp files, or our own measurements.

03 / Predict

Design & Preview

We predict sound coverage in MAPP 3D and render your lighting looks in Capture, then refine the design with you.

04 / Install

Install & Tune

The install follows a plan you have already seen, so there are fewer surprises, fewer changes and a faster tune.

Sound Design · Meyer Sound

MAPP 3D. Prediction you can trust.

MAPP 3D is Meyer Sound’s design and prediction software. It shows exactly how sound will spread across every seat in your room in three dimensions. We use it to choose the right loudspeakers, aim them precisely and prove the coverage before anything is installed.

  • Full 3D visualization. We model your room from CAD or SketchUp files, or build it from scratch with MAPP 3D’s drawing tools.
  • Off-axis and seat-by-seat detail. We compare performance between the front row, the back wall and the balcony.
  • Headroom with real music. M-Noise, part of the AES75 standard, predicts true linear peak SPL, not just test-tone numbers.
  • Design to integration. Designs sync with Meyer Galileo GALAXY processors and Compass software for on-site tuning.

Precision You Can Trust

Loudspeaker data is measured in Meyer Sound’s anechoic chamber. What MAPP 3D’s virtual microphones predict is what real microphones measure in your room.

Fewer Onsite Changes

Because the design is proven first, install day is about hanging and tuning, not guessing and re-aiming.

Powered System Advantage

Self-powered Meyer loudspeakers remove amplifier and cable variables, which makes predictions simpler and more accurate. That includes the ULTRA-X40.

Lighting Design · Capture

Capture. Your lighting, rendered in real time.

Capture is professional lighting design, documentation and visualization software. We use it to build your stage in 3D, place every fixture, truss and LED wall, and show you what your services and events will look like before the install.

  • See the real look. Color mixing, beam angles, haze and moving-light effects are rendered accurately in your room.
  • Make informed decisions. Try different fixtures, positions and colors on screen instead of on install day.
  • Pre-program your shows. We can build and preview cues ahead of time, so your team starts with looks that work.
Capture lighting design plot

Design

From a simple 2D sketch to a full 3D plot, we try as many fixtures, hanging positions and accessories as your room needs.

Capture lighting documentation and reports

Documentation

Plots and reports update instantly when the design changes, so your installers, electricians and team always have current paperwork.

Capture real-time lighting visualization

Visualization

Lighting, video and motion come together in an accurate real-time render, so you can approve the look with confidence.
