  • module, viewing modules, database modules, calculating modules
  • Options in Main and edit modules – menu conventions & shortcuts
  • Building a model from scratch – Selection construction items – Shortcuts and tools for unusual shapes – Closing the room – Model detailing – Locating and closing holes – Single and double coat faces – Using the databases
  • The Import/ export module – Autocad dxf & Sketchup import/export Table reserved in Bistro.
Dinner Table reserved in Bistro. We recommend you purchase from the venue’s menu.
Day 2
  • Installing Loudspeakers – what the dimensions and settings mean – pitfalls to avoid
  • Mapping Loudspeakers – Direct SPL – Total SPL – other measures
  • Loudspeaker cluster building – using SPK data files – using GLL files
  • Loudspeaker formats in EASE SPK & GLL – Speakerbuilder / SpeakerLab – FIRmaker
  • Special Items – objects tables etc.
    Detailed Mapping features – when to use interference – noise settings – calculating dB(A) – distribution – saving mapping
 Dinner Table reserved in Bistro. We recommend you purchase from the venue’s menu.
 Evening Session
  • Loudspeaker basics – direct sound – reverberant sound – loudspeaker interference – comb filtering – acoustic coupling – room modes in action – boundary effects – measuring techniques – Sound Level meter, RTA, Windowed measurements
 Day 3
  • Key Acoustic Principles – absorption – scattering – reverberation defined and calculated – required T60 for different uses – how T60 affects sound system design Noise and typical sound levels – Speech Intelligibility – what it means – how it’s measured – what the measuring equipment is doing – how it relates to building acoustics
  • Acoustic Modelling – scattering – material selection – methods of calculation
  • Ray Tracing – different methods and their values
  • The AURA Module – capabilities of the hybrid system- unique calculations
  • Auralisation – using EARS – using custom files Review of some of the authors’ models – what works – what does not work.
 Day 4
  •  A half day on site for those who are able to stay.
  • A free tour of a local House of worship with difficult acoustics – how it was modelled – how it sounds now and how it sounds with other loudspeakers.
