1 AURA - Analysis Utility for Room Acoustics Merging EASE for sound reinforcement systems and CAESAR for room acoustics Wolfgang Ahnert, S. Feistel, Bruce C. Olson (ADA), Oliver Schmitz, and Michael Vorländer (ITA) Acoustical Society of America Fort Lauderdale, Florida December 2001
2 Overview Introduction Look at EASE 4.0 New room acoustical simulation in EASE Algorithms Results Limitations Examples Auralization Conclusions
3 Application of computers in sound system design until 1965 mainly in selected cases in research centers by means of huge computers Using computer chips of integrated-circuits decreases the price of pocket computers; since 1970 programable pocket computers offer first algorithms for acoustics i.e. program CASSA from Philips for calculator HP41CX, calculation routines in bar code
4 Application of computers in sound system design 1983, CADP1, graphic CAD for MS-DOS based program by JBL, Version , CADP1, graphic CAD for MS-DOS based program by JBL, Version , BOSE-Modeler, first full graphic CAD MacIntosh-based program Version 1, 1986 by K. Jacob, T. Birkle/Bose/USA 1986, CADP1, upgrade of program for VGA resolutions. First use of color for displaying variations in coverage. by Bruce C. Olson, last version , Acousta-CADD, first full graphic CAD MS-DOS based program Version 1 by A. Muchimaru Altec Lansing/USA 1988, Nexo-CADD, full graphic CAD MS-DOS based program Version 1, 1988, by Nexo/France, not available anymore 1990, EASE, full graphic CAD MS-DOS based program with pop up menus Version 1, 1990, by ADA, Germany 1991, CADP2, full-graphic CAD Windows 3.1 based program, also running under Windows 95, by JBL/USA, Version 1, last version , Acousta-CADD, Version , BOSE-Modeler, Version 4 and updates
5 Application of computers in sound system design 1993, EASE Version 2 and updates 1996, Acousta-CADD Production terminated 1996, ULYSSES, by IFB/Germany (P. Hallstein) Version 1, now windows version , CADP2 Further development stopped 1999, EASE for Windows, by W.Ahnert, R.Feistel, S.Feistel Version 3.0 for Windows 95/NT/ME/ , EASE for Windows, by W.Ahnert, R.Feistel, S.Feistel Version 4.0 with room acoustic module AURA
6 Room Acoustics Programs 1988, CATT-Acoustic, by Dalenbäck/Sweden Version 1, now version , ODEON, by Naylor & Rindel/Denmark Version 1, now version , RAMSETE, Farina/Italy, Version 1, now version 2.xx , CAESAR, by Vorländer - Schmitz/Aachen, Germany Version 0.12, 2001 version , EASE, by Ahnert - Feistel/Berlin, Germany Version 4.0 Includes AURA, Analysis Utility for Room Acoustics
7 State of the art Past and future... Calculation time Room acoustical simulation Loudspeaker & diffuse field Room-acoustical simulation Virtual reality Quality
8 State of the art Past and future... Calculation time Room acoustical simulation Joint room- and electroacoustical simulation CAESAR + EASE AURA Virtual reality Quality
9 Room acoustics basics, assumptions Sound propagation in rooms is described by impulse responses (source-to-receiver) The room is considered as LTI system. Impulse responses contain all acoustic information Impulse responses can be processed to obtain single number quantities (T, C, LF,...) h(t) h(t)
