L-Acoustics Introduces Loudspeaker Modules for CATT, EASE, ODEON, and LARAL-Acoustics announces the new modules are now available for third party software including CATT-Acoustics (Dynamic Link Library - DLL), EASE (Generic Loudspeaker Library - GLL), ODEON, and LARA. Sound designers and acousticians can now simulate the L-Acoustics line source arrays via specific GLL or DLL file respectively for the electro-acoustic software EASE and CATT-Acoustics. L-Acoustics coaxial speakers can also be simulated using the dedicated GLL file in EASE and the Common Loudspeaker Format (CLF) file for CATT-Acoustics, ODEON, and LARA. Each of the third party software can be used in parallel with SOUNDVISION to simulate additional parameters such as total sound pressure level (taking into account the reverberation field), intelligibility, and clarity factor thanks to the fact that they include room acoustics properties. Germain Simon, application engineer at L-Acoustics said, "The new modules allow for much quicker insertion and setup of L-Acoustics WST and coaxial systems into a variety of individual sound design software. The GLL and DLL libraries provide true line source radiation patterns which enable them to much more accurately predict the behavior of lines source arrays in a venue." This development supports acousticians by allowing them to input clients' requirements such as intelligibility and reverberation directly into their L-Acoustics speaker design, and responds directly to a request from consultants. ![](/std_images/blank.gif)
