Due to short development cycles, the feature set of the state-of-the-art software is continuously and rapidly expanded. Following an agile approach, the roadmap is based on clearly structured, sequential feature development, prioritizing user-driven feedback. Updates are continuously provided within the time limit of the license, free of charge.
For many projects, only section plans are available for 3D room modeling. In EASE 5, floor plans, front and section views can be loaded as graphics files and used as a reference for drawing the room model.
EASE 5 allows importing and exporting EASE 4 project files in FRD format. This makes it easier to get started in EASE 5 by loading existing projects created in EASE 4.4, as well as exchanging EASE data with 3rd parties who are still using EASE 4.4. Since the two software tools are conceptionally different, there are some limitations with respect to the compatibility between them.
When it comes to finetuning the model, preparing it for the simulation and fixing potential errors, several tools and views help to find potential geometrical problems in the model or acoustically wrong oriented faces.
EASE 5 is structured in a clear and flexible way. The room model, the associated data as well as the results can be accessed in different windows. The software is subdivided into a main program and the calculation modules. The main program offers the following windows:
Global EQ
The Global EQ can be used to apply signal processing functions to the whole sound system. Gain, delay, and filter functions are available via the Filter Stage window.
The loudspeakers table provides an overview of all loudspeakers and their parameters in the model including gain and delay settings. The table can be exported to the clipboard for further use. Loudspeakers can be highlighted and selected in the table.
The Configurator window of EASE 5 provides configuration functions for advanced speaker models. In the case of DLL-based proprietary speaker models the embedded dialog window can be accessed through the Configurator window. For GLL-based speaker models, line array systems as well as loudspeaker clusters can be built and modified easily.
The database includes a number of categories, namely the materials loaded in the current project, a small generic database designed by AFMG, a large curated database by AFMG and a user-defined database with custom materials. The following functions are available for viewing and selecting materials from the entire database:
Audience areas represent the virtual planes that are used for mappings and calculations. Audience areas can be inserted into the model manually using the drawing toolset of the CAD editor. They can also simply be added using the Area Above Face function or by duplicating audience areas that already exist.
The Standard Mapping function allows a large number of simulations to be performed based on the diffuse field assumptions of statistical acoustics. Standard Mapping makes use of Eyring statistical formula to generate RT figures that will be used to calculate acoustical parameters, such as STI (Speech Transmission Index) and Total SPL. Measured RT data can also be used for this type of mapping.
Standard mapping results based on statistical acoustics can be extended by including early, specular reflections using simple ray-tracing functions. Using this combination, the same room acoustic quantities are calculated in a mapping format.
Using the Ray Tracing module, reflection patterns can be calculated, analyzed, and visualized in order to find, e.g., audible reflections, focusing effects, and flutter echoes. They can also be used to aim loudspeakers and reflectors. The following functions are available for this purpose:
The Ray Tracing module also calculates response functions for user-defined locations in the room. These so-called reflectograms contain precise information about each reflection, such as its arrival time, level, frequency response, and direction given a listener seat or measurement position.
The Probe module of EASE 5 is used to view and analyze response files and reflectograms calculated primarily using ray-tracing methods. It works similar to a measurement suite and offers many different views and evaluation methods.
The AURA module provides advanced ray-tracing functions. They make use of a 64-bit engine and multi-threading in order to calculate accurate, full-length echograms and impulse responses including scattering effects and without tail estimates. This allows deriving all important acoustic quantities according to ISO 3382 and IEC 60268-16 with high accuracy.
Auralization is the process of simulating and making audible the effects of playing a known reference sound, such as program material, through a defined loudspeaker system in a particular space. It allows listening to the room before it is even built and therefore allows adding subjective impressions to the design process.
The EARS module of EASE 5 provides the means to perform auralizations. These can be based on the direct sound response only or on the results of specular ray-tracing runs with or without a predicted tail. However, the most accurate listening results are achieved using the output of AURA Response calculations.
Several manufacturers provide loudspeaker data files for AFMG software. The table below provides an overview of all the companies who have provided loudspeaker data, and for which products they are available.
Please Note:
Some manufacturers distribute the loudspeaker data only through their website or upon request. If you are missing a particular brand in the software, please contact the respective company directly.
GLLs for loudspeakers, line arrays and clusters available for EASE 4 can be used also for EASE 5. The same applies to latest-generation DLLs. Speaker models based on SPK files are not supported in EASE 5.
hey zach, am starting study gsap3 this week, am sorry if my question are bad or noobs, but you're sure this is a good and more easy approach in workflow?
I loved the objets ref because it allow me search all references in my engine where i use specific math ease.
In the example your show, from my know. vscode not allow to search all references by strings "Elastic". or "Power0","Power1","Power2"..
The result give none.
Or maybe i do something wrong ?
tanks you blake this is a good answer.
Only issue for search string, , is if i use a lot of comment, it also search in comment or local variables name.
But if we can use old way , or parseEase look interesting thanks
For a sample of 20 Texas community colleges, the authors reviewed college websites, assessing the ease of access and usefulness of online transfer information, and spoke to key transfer personnel about the information provided to students. The authors used a qualitative case study approach to triangulate findings from their data sources.
Make sure that you dont have extra keyframes form the mask. Sometimes it is hard to see unless you zoom in quite a bit. Sometimes the keyframe is way off in the distance too. If your mask is moving, there is a keyframe somewhere. If you cannot find it, you might unclick the stopwatch to remove all keyframes and reset it.
4. Here's the weird moment. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but sometimes even without applying easy ease I'm getting mask movement, sometimes it's a very small one. I thought that this is related to the mask position being different at the start of animation and at the end, it seems it's not the case.
The tutorial you are watching is teaching a workflow that is only just above fair. There are several more efficient ways to animate and control that animated mask. You could duplicate that entire project with a lot less fiddling, fewer keyframes, and a lot less work.
In his technique both the position and the mask path are moving, then the speed of the enter and exit speed of the position move is modified so it's kind of a miracle that the animation on the mask does not get fouled up. If your mask does not behave as you expect before you modify the keyframes for Position then you have a workflow problem. You did things in the wrong order. If the mask does not keep up with the position change then the problem is caused by the difference in timing.
It would be highly unusual for me to animate a mask on a layer that was also moving if I wanted to reveal that layer. If I was doing that kind of a reveal I would just create a rectangle shape over the hero position of the layer then set that rectangle as an Alpha track matte for the layer. It would look like this:
No keyframes for the track matte, a little Gaussian blur added to soften the edge and a more efficient way to see what editing the speed graph for Position is doing to the move by showing the reference graph make that part of the project much easier.
If you still can't figure out what is wrong, post a screenshot with the modified properties of all the layers giving you problems revealed. Just select the layers, press UU, PrintScreen and Paste or drag a screenshot to the reply field on the forum and we should be able to help you figure it out.

For Casting: 1) Apply to silicone rubber molds when casting liquid silicone rubber. 2) To extend mold life, apply to silicone molds when casting materials such as polyurethane plastics, rubbers or epoxies (release agent is not needed for this process, but can extend mold life). 3) Apply to polyurethane molds before casting polyurethane liquid plastics (The molds will not last as long as they would if Pol-Ease 2300 Release Agent was used. The main reason for using Pol-Ease 2500 in a polyurethane mold would be to cast a part that can be cleaned more easily than a part covered with Pol-Ease 2300. This is beneficial when painting cast parts).
