bigmizzle99 Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 You can start using BB with either run the design wizard or open design window. The design wizard should walk you through making your driver choices. If you open the design window, go to File->New design and click button at the bottom of the window "Load from database". Another window will launch and you can pick your driver. Click Load. The second tab of the Driver Properties window, Configuration, has a window for entering the number of drivers. Enter it there.

SnowDrifter Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 Just a word of advice: frequency response, port length, and cone excursion have been totally inaccurate for me in the past ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmizzle99 Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 Hmmmm, interesting. How did you know BB pro was inaccurate and what modelling software do you use? Camaro SS Build Altima build 2.0 Altima build 1.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 Modeling software? BB pro lol. I know it's inaccurate from my own testing. Says I should have no lows, suggests my drivers are big box woofers even though they are small box woofers (played louder and fuller in a smaller box), says I should be tuned to 38 with my current port even though I measured 33. Also says my subs should barely move but Im pushing them to xmech ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmizzle99 Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 I hear ya on the cone excursion point...I've been modelling woofers with big xmax but BB Pro says I'll never see that excursion in the pass band...then I wonder what good xmax is when it occurs at 10 Hz where there is 0 output! lol Need new software. Maybe that's why every time I model a sealed box using manufacturer's suggested box the freq response looks terrible!

SnowDrifter Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 My own opinion: build a box and play with it in person vs. With software. You'll learn MUCH more that way ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MACnonsence6 Posted August 23, 2013 Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 if bb is inaccurate any other programs you would suggest using? I picked up an MTX Sw1212 powered subwoofer today. This thing sounds amazing. 130 watts, 12" woofer with a passive 12" woofer tuned to 27 hz. Moving the pictures on the walls and my girl got wet from the bass when i showed her haha. Tonight should be good haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87chevyboi Posted August 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 i can build boxes no problem, i just want to play around with bb software so i can try and do shit with it rather than build a box erytime i want to see how a sub works in a certain box. I am not doing well with this software though, like i said i cnt find the 2 sub part. Guess ima just have to keep playing around with it.

bigmizzle99 Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 What have you done so far with it? Have you chosen a driver to model? Maybe you can take a screenshot of where you're stuck and post it. Then I can help. Camaro SS Build Altima build 2.0 Altima build 1.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
