Modeling Point-Source Loudspeaker Arrays in AFMG's EASE, Focus 3, and GLLViewer Programs

摘要

To date, there has been no easy or straightforward way to model simple array configurations of point-sources such as CBT arrays for demonstration and learning purposes in AFMG's simulation and support programs EASE, Focus 3, and GLLViewer. This paper describes a pair of free AFMG-supplied GLLs for creating point-source cluster and array-type configurations. Both GLLs can be used in AFMG's EASE or GLLViewer but only the array-type GLL can be used in EASE Focus 3. Although free to the end user, AFMG's powerful 3D direct-sound sound reinforcement line-array simulation program EASE Focus 3 is funded when manufacturers provide licensed GLL (Generic Loudspeaker Library) data for their loudspeakers so that customers can model their own branded loudspeakers in Focus 3.
