As speaker installations become larger and acoustics more complex, designing loudspeaker systems for public buildings can present major challenges.
In this respect, Bosch says it has long recognised a growing need for support tools for both designers and installers to help them design satisfactory installations. For the more complex installations, well known packages such as EASE, Catt-Acoustics and Ulysses are already supported by Bosch.
These packages are able to simulate all ranges of applications and loudspeaker types, but for installations with, for example, a lot of ceiling loudspeakers they are often found to be too difficult.
