What's New in ART Coach

1.0.9

November 2, 2026

Based on customers’ feedback, 1.0.9 lets rear subwoofers and front speakers take on more support where ART Coach previously held them back. Two changes can affect the values in your plan: • Rear subwoofers now help the speakers beside and behind you up to each speaker’s own range, instead of stopping at a fixed cutoff. • Front speakers rated to 40 Hz or lower now help front-wall or front-corner subwoofers with the LFE channel. This is on by default. You can turn it off for a plan in Parameters. Subwoofers placed behind or beside your seat, and speakers marked Near MLP, keep their limits. If a subwoofer sits close behind your main seat, choose Behind MLP as its placement. Both changes use the frequency range you enter for each speaker, so check that each rated range is accurate. ART Coach knows how low a speaker goes, not how loud. If your front speakers strain in LFE-heavy scenes, turn off “Front speakers support the LFE” in Parameters. When you open a saved plan whose support values changed, ART Coach lists the changed rows once so you can re-enter them. Also in this update: • Changing presets now asks first when your selected emphasis isn’t available with the new preset. • Guide updates for recent calibration software versions: how the optional LFE low-pass filter differs between ART and Bass Control, why a reopened calibration project may be recalculated with the current filter setting, and the SHIFT shortcut for linked support ranges. • Clearer instructions for the order in which to enter supporter values. • Siri now tells you how to unlock Pro. • Numbers in Setup Tips and What to Enter stay readable at the largest text sizes. • Settings on iPhone and iPad no longer show the Mac-only Interface Size option. • On iPad, the progress bar uses the same step names as the rest of the Planner. • On iPad, the User Guide opened from Settings always shows Done, including at the largest text sizes.
