Measurements for Loudspeaker Modeling Files

Loudspeaker modeling files are most often used with acoustical modeling programs such as EASE, Focus, CATT-Acoustic, and others to help determine how well the loudspeakers cover the audience areas and how much “spill” there is on the room’s surfaces. It is important to have accurate data about the characteristics of the loudspeakers that are used in the models. In this article, we will detail some of the requirements to help assure good measurement data for use with loudspeaker modeling. This article was originally published in Voice Coil, April 2017.

Who says nothing exciting is happening in the loudspeaker industry? As the April 2017 edition of Voice Coil demonstrates, evolution is making headway in our industry. Read about the new GrapheneQ material from ORA Sound, how things are evolving in Microspeaker Design, and discover the major players in this exciting market. Also, learn what you need to generate Measurements for Loudspeaker Modeling Files and on drivers from two high-end manufacturers, Accuton and ETON, in Test Bench.

AFMG, the professional audio, room acoustics and structural physics simulation and measurement software specialist, confirmed that its new EASE Focus 3 solution will be released on March 10th, 2016. The third version of AFMG’s renowned free simulation tool has become a powerful software covering numerous aspects of for sound system design and optimization.

The K-array KH8 line array loudspeaker system has been purpose-designed for steering and coverage optimization by AFMG’s FIRmaker Technology. With this implementation, the Ahnert Feistel Media Group (AFMG) sees an ideal combination of his revolutionary sound optimization tool with the innovative K-array fully digital concept.
