PREDICTION: EASE Focus 3

To aim correctly a complete system we suggests to use always the Aiming Software - EASE 

Focus 3.

The EASE Focus 3 Aiming Software is a 3D Acoustic Modelling Software that serves for the 

configuration and modelling of Line Arrays and conventional speakers close to reality. It only 

considers the direct field, created by the complex addition of the sound contributions of the 

individual loudspeakers or array components.

The design of EASE Focus is targeted at the end user. It allows the easy and quick prediction 

of the array performance in a given venue. The scientific base of EASE Focus stems from 

EASE, the professional electro and room acoustic simulation software developed by AFMG 

Technologies GmbH. It is based on the EASE GLL loudspeaker data file required for its use: 

AXIOM_Column_vX_X

. The GLL file contains the data that defines the Line Array with regard 

to its possible configurations as well as to its geometrical and acoustical properties. 

Download the EASE Focus 3 app from the AXIOM website at http://www.axiomproaudio.com/ clicking on downloads section of the product.

Use the menu option 

Edit / Import System Definition File

 to import the file

the pin in this hole first,

also use it to rest the pin when unused.

Use these holes for the splay angle:

 as no splay.

 as normal splay angle to obtain

     a curved ver�cal array.

 as splay angle to aim the first speaker

     downward (stacked only).
