Predictive Acoustics and Acoustical Modeling Software: EASE

From March to August 2014, in its Sound Control column dedicated to acoustics, Richard Honeycutt reviewed and wrote a series of articles on the evolution of predictive acoustics and acoustical modeling software, including a review of some of the available tools. This fourth article in the series discusses Enhanced Acoustic Simulator for Engineers (EASE), an engineering design and analysis software for optimizing acoustics. This article was originally published in audioXpress, June 2014.

From March to August 2014, in its Sound Control column dedicated to acoustics, Richard Honeycutt reviewed and wrote a series of articles on the evolution of predictive acoustics and acoustical modeling software, including a review of some of the available tools. This third article in the series discusses CATT-Acoustic, a software for room acoustics prediction, auralization, studio stereo, and surround reverberation, and one of the leading modeling programs for architectural acoustics. This article was originally published in audioXpress, May 2014.

From March to August 2014, in its Sound Control column dedicated to acoustics, Richard Honeycutt reviewed and wrote a series of articles on the evolution of predictive acoustics and acoustical modeling software, including a review of some of the available tools. This second article in the series focused on one of those available tools: Bose Modeler. This article was originally published in audioXpress, April 2014.

From March to August 2014, in his Sound Control column dedicated to acoustics, Richard Honeycutt reviewed and wrote a series of articles on the evolution of predictive acoustics and acoustical modeling software, including a review of some of the available tools. This first article in the series revisits Sabine’s reverberation time equation, all the way to the use of impulse responses and ray-tracing and convolution auralization techniques using modern computers.
