EASE Focus is a tool limited to the simulation of direct sound from the source to the receiver location. No walls, columns, or other objects can be defined in the software and, thus, are not taken into account in the calculations.
If you would like to include the geometry of the room itself or objects within into your calculations we suggest the use of EASE.
To be used in EASE Focus, a GLL needs to be compiled including a so-called “.author” file. These .author files are encrypted by AFMG explicitly for each loudspeaker model and sent to the manufacturer for GLL creation.
In general, a “model” refers to precisely one configuration of a loudspeaker with exactly one acoustic radiation pattern, the so-called “balloon”. Usually, manufacturers call this a “loudspeaker model” or “loudspeaker type” and give it a unique number within their portfolio.
To customize the installer of EASE Focus for your brand please perform the following easy steps:
AFMG is a worldwide leader in the development of software for the pro-audio industry. AFMG has developed, amongst other programs, and is the sole owner of, the Software EASE Focus Version 3 ("Software"). The Software is an acoustic modeling software for line array systems, digitally steered columns and conventional loudspeakers. It supports three-dimensional SPL mapping, multiple systems, time and frequency response plots as well as many other features.
Not all GLL files are the same. Some AFMG® programs have specific requirements for a GLL in order that the program is permitted to use the GLL.
The chart below summarizes what types of GLLs can be used in each AFMG program.
Accurate loudspeaker data is necessary for reliable simulation results.
As a manufacturer you can measure and create loudspeaker data yourself. In addition to the proper equipment, you would need in-depth knowledge about the measurement techniques to adequately model the loudspeaker behavior. For this please refer to SpeakerLab’s comprehensive User´s Guide which can be found under the link below.
In this manual you will find step-by-step instructions for the most common cases along with related references:
Several manufacturers have provided their licensed EASE Focus 3 data to AFMG for distribution. You can download this database below. Please find an overview of the supported brands here: Supported Brands table. Should your desired brand not be listed, please contact your manufacturer.
