EASE - Address

  • EASE Address is a software that allows the modeling of distributed loudspeaker systems in two dimensions. Comparable to a Reader-software it is based on the GLL system definition files (.GLL) required for its use. These files can be created by means of the EASE SpeakerLab Software and contain the data that defines a ceiling or wall-mounted loudspeaker with regard to its geometrical and acoustical properties.
  • ​EASE Address is publicly available and it is free. It cannot be licensed directly, rather loading a selected system definition (GLL) file constitutes the relation to a manufacturer. The maintenance and the extension of the EASE Address Software is carried out by AFMG.

EASE SpeakerLab Software

  • By means of the EASE SpeakerLab Software and a special authorization file, a documented text format (.XGLL), that describes the geometrical and acoustical properties of a loudspeaker, can be translated into a binary, compiled format (.GLL). These binary definition files represent the basis for the EASE Address Software.
  • EASE SpeakerLab and an authorization file are provided by AFMG after the purchase of a manufacturer-specific licence.

Feature Overview

  • EASE Address is a software that allows the modeling of acoustic sources, in particular distributed loudspeaker systems, in two dimensions. It only considers the direct field, created by the addition of the sound contributions of the individual loudspeakers.
  • ​The design of EASE Address is targeted at the end user, but also at the R&D engineer. Therefore great efforts are made to create an intuitive and consistent interface, which agrees with modern user interface design principles.
  • The purpose of EASE Address is to provide both, the end user, who needs to quickly develop a simple design for a ceiling loudspeaker system, as well as the developer, with a tool that allows the easy and quick prediction of the system performance in a given hall.
  • The applicability of EASE Address is quite extended compared to conventional 2D ceiling loudspeaker simulation software. Outstanding is that it is not fixed to a single product. A GLL configuration file allows the definition of the loudspeaker properties in an ASCII text format. Thus, additional loudspeakers can be introduced at any time by additional configuration files, already existing loudspeakers can be updated, without changes to a single line of code in the software. This makes EASE Address a generic software.
  • The scientific base of EASE Address stems from EASE, the professional electro- and room acoustic simulation software developed by Ahnert Feistel Media Group. EASE Address is also created by AFMG

Paragon Acoustic Consultants had been reviewing different room acoustics software packages to standardise the software used within the practice. Various room acoustic packages were considered, however, a number of the software packages considered proved unfavourable due to limitations of room geometries that can be modelled, limited calculation outputs and general concerns that the software was unnecessarily difficult to use for even straightforward tasks. This practice has reviewed Olive Tree Lab Suite and found the software to be user friendly whilst providing a very high level of functionality. Having rented the software and modelled a number of relatively complex room acoustic projects, we are impressed with the software and in particular the very professional back-up and support provided by P.E. Mediterranean Acoustics R&D. At this stage the modelling functions for outdoor sound have not been used, however, having watched demonstrations by Mediterranean Acoustics via computer link–up the external modelling sections of the software look as impressive as the room acoustics modelling.

The OTL Team is a delight to work with. Amazingly responsive to questions and requests, and constantly improving the product. When it comes to software development & support, many should look at this company as a model to follow.

I would like to appreciate the team of OTL and Premard in terms of their continued support and efforts. OTL has been such a valuable tool that I keep coming back for more. With the new software OTL 4 Pemard has again made an effective tool for Acousticians worldwide.

​I have been using the OTL Lab application for a number of years, mainly for teaching and demonstrations at undergraduate and postgraduate courses in acoustics and noise control. The program is user-friendly and incorporates an advanced high-level 3D designer tool for setting up virtual acoustic environments, allowing easy setting up of case studies and extracting results and maps for radiation and transmission for noise and other sources.
I find very useful the advanced physics engine for sound propagation which allows for wave-based simulations (plane or spherical) considering also atmospheric refraction. This enables OTL to achieve accurate results especially in large scale setups encountered in environmental studies. The interface for immediate comparison of analytical results with standardized approximations (ISO standards) or simplified computational methods such as ray tracing and image-source models allows for comprehensive evaluations in multiple levels of physical detail. Such features which have been utilized by the members of our Audio and Acoustic Technology group during research projects.
The support by the OTL team was extremely helpful and their response immediate, tackling queries at personal level and providing educational webinars for the students.

OTL is an appropriate tool for prediction of acoustic adjustments in room acoustics, outdoor environment and industry. It offers flexibility and an ease of the ability to customize. Thanks for the multi-layered structure for impedance, absorption and SRI prediction.

Although designed for demanding Acoustics applications, Olive Tree Lab has been instrumental in my research and work. Despite its hugely detailed modeling of acoustic properties, primarily addressed to acousticians, through its intuitive interface, it has also proven invaluable for architectural design. Furthermore, the Mediterranean Acoustics team have vastly exceeded my expectations for 'after sales service' and provided a rare blend of scientific expertise and personal care – giving true meaning to the word 'support'.

We find OTL very intuitive and the customer service spectacular. Once the model was properly configured, the mapping software predicted very accurately and was within +/-5dB in comparison to actual field measurements.  We were able to provide client documents that were clear and intuitive and allowed them to prove compliance with local and state noise ordinances.

Pemard did a fantastic job with our custom software application. Costas and Panagiotis were extremely responsive during the development process and were always helpful in immediately addressing our concerns and fixing issues where we found them. The custom software the team developed for us has been of huge help to our room acoustics design process and we could not have done this without their help. I would recommend Pemard to anyone needing custom acoustics software.
