Point Source Array Modules The modular point source nature of VARIAi lends itself to building custom coverage patterns to match room geometries. In this fashion, simple arrays such as the one shown below are straightforward. The MPS connector is the only connector needed and are provided with each loudspeaker. Each connector includes four 1/4”...

Point Source Array Modules Software EASE and EASE Focus II Simulation Software Varia101 GLL data in EASE and EASE Focus II simulation software tools allows you and system designers to quickly and accurately predict the performance of individual Varia loudspeakers and of Varia arrays in various settings. Simply define the audience areas, position the loudspeaker or array, add or remove cabinets and adjust its height, location and aiming angle until you achieve the desired results in the simulation.
