Located in Berlin, Germany, AFMG® Technologies GmbH has created the industry standards EASE and EASERA software for acoustic simulation and measurement as well as their related products EASE Focus, AFMG SysTune, EASE Address and EASE SpeakerLab.
In cooperation with our partner company SDA Software Design Ahnert GmbH we develop and distribute software for:
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:
Adding your data to the EASE® loudspeaker database is free of charge. It requires collecting selected loudspeaker performance data and converting it in a binary format.
Acoustic, electronic and mechanical data of the sound source must be assembled in a single data file, the so-called GLL. This GLL file can also include your logo and company information.
In general, AFMG® grants to you the right to use our software programs on a specific number of computers. This number corresponds to the number of User Keys you have purchased. More specifically, one User Key can be used only by one user on one machine at any particular point of time.
The following rules need to be considered when the software program is provided to different users within a company or to partners:
Several manufacturers have provided their licensed EASE Evac data to AFMG for distribution. You can download this database below. Please find an overview of the supported brands here. - Note that some loudspeaker manufacturers distribute the loudspeaker data only through their website or upon request. If you are missing a particular brand in EASE, please contact the respective manufacturer directly.
How to install:
Several manufacturers have provided their licensed EASE Address data to AFMG for distribution. You can download this database below. Please find an overview of the supported brands here. - Note that some loudspeaker manufacturers distribute the loudspeaker data only through their website or upon request. If you are missing a particular brand in EASE Address, please contact the respective manufacturer directly.
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.
The provision of EASE loudspeaker database takes place with the delivery of the software.
You can download and update the data files anytime by using Database Update from the Help menu of EASE.
Some loudspeaker manufacturers distribute the loudspeaker data only through their website or upon request. If you are missing a particular brand in EASE, please contact the respective company directly.
Please note: The expansion of the EASE 4 loudspeaker database provided by AFMG was discontinued on September 19, 2023.
"EASE 5 is a big step forward. The completely new user interface combined with lots of useful tools and further improved simulation modules allow for much more intuitive and effective workflows."
“We are currently using EASE 4 in our company and I must say I'm very happy with the changes in EASE 5. The workflow is much faster and more intuitive.”
“EASE 5 provides swift simulation preparation, seamless integration with SketchUp, and visually stunning results, which make it perfect for creating high-quality reports. Its user-friendly design ensures a seamless experience for beginners and professionals, making it a valuable asset for your acoustic simulation needs.”
“EASE 5 is a game changer offering easy to use, intuitive tools and modern workflows. Not only is the ability to import a 3D DWG into EASE 5 out of Vectorworks Spotlight a huge time-saver, but it keeps the consistency throughout all of my engineering programs and allows me to deliver stunning visual content of acoustics and loudspeakers analysis alike, in both 2D and 3D, that every one of my clients can easily understand.“
“Thanks to the AFMG Team for being “agile” with this new version of EASE. It’s reassuring to see that AFMG is taking the user’s feedback into account and continuously upgrades its software with top voted remarks. There has been a lot of new upgrades in few months since the first version that I get, and everything is going on the good direction!”
“Congratulations to the AFMG team for excellent work on EASE 5 so far! The new technology and approach is highly appreciated, visualization and UX is great!”
“EASE 5 makes it easy to create audience areas and align loudspeakers. You can easily orientate yourself in the model at any time, which not only helps when working on the project but also enables a clear presentation for customers.”
“We’re happy to rely on EASE 5 as efficient tool for standard-conform STI and RT calculations. This is how we support the technical planners and architects in an efficient and cost-saving way.”
“EASE 5 greatly simplifies the process of creating and navigating around a 3D model. I was able to quickly learn the new interface and create predictions to help us design a system, and help the customer visualize the end-product.”
