BASSBOSS Unveils PredictBASSBASSBOSS announces the launch of PredictBASS, a free room modeling software tool. Designed for venue owners, sound engineers, and DJs, PredictBASS allows users to explore how bass frequencies behave in a virtual 3D space -- helping them better understand low-frequency behavior and apply that knowledge to subwoofer placement in their own venues. PredictBASS aims to demystify the complexities of bass, offering users a way to make informed decisions grounded in the physics of sound, the company says. PredictBASS was developed by BASSBOSS loudspeaker designer David Lee in collaboration with Dr. Paul Mayer, a DSP specialist with a background in both academic and professional audio software development. Mayer applied his expertise to create a raytracing-based audio engine that simulates how low-frequency sound interacts with surfaces like floors, walls, and ceilings. The result, the company says, is a fast, intuitive tool that makes invisible acoustic phenomena -- such as phase cancellation, standing waves, and null points -- easy to visualize and understand. "Available for both Mac and Windows, the free software focuses on low frequencies, making it useful for enhancing bass performance in live environments," the company says. "While designed with BASSBOSS systems in mind, the insights it provides are universal. By illustrating key acoustic principles, PredictBASS helps users identify and avoid phase cancellation issues -- resulting in fuller, more consistent low-end response." PredictBASS is available now as a free download.
