Rational Acoustics LLC announced today that it has been appointed exclusive US distributor for SG Audio’s 10EaZy SPL monitoring software & hardware systems. Distribution rights have also been granted for Canada on a non-exclusive basis.
Developed in 2005 by SG Audio Aps., 10EaZy has become a European standard for accurate, reliable, easy-to-use IEC/ANSI Class 1 and Class 2 compliant SPL monitoring solutions for live sound.
10EaZy’s unique combination of pre-calibrated, IEC/ANSI compliant hardware paired with intuitive, feature-rich 10EaZy software provides users with a tamper-proof, closed measurement system with documented results that will stand up to even the most stringent noise regulations.
10EaZy’s measurement microphone ships pre-calibrated, eliminating the need for expensive calibrators and daily calibration. The 10EaZy USB I-O is tamper-proof, with no external controls, ensuring calibration and measurement accuracy.
The software provides clear, unambiguous real-time values that can be displayed in a variety of standard formats and comes with a host of features such as an Leq value & history graph, a minute-by-minute log file, a run-order function to note who or what is playing when, webserver functionality allowing for remote viewing of any number of 10EaZy systems and an e-mail function to receive measurement results via e-mail immediately upon ending the measurement session.
10EaZy is available in 4 different product variations. A Class 1 system is equipped with fully-featured software and Class 1 compliant hardware. The Class 2 system has the same fully-featured software and Class 2 compliant hardware.
Other variations include a reduced feature-set software version with Class 2 hardware known as 10EaZy RT, and a software-only dongle version called 10EaZy SW which requires users to provide their own microphone, i-o and cables and which cannot be certified Class 1 or Class 2 compliant by the manufacturer.
“Rational Acoustics is very excited to partner with SG Audio and represent 10EaZy in the United States.” says Karen Anderson, Rational Acoustics COO. “10EaZy is an incredibly slick, powerful and modern approach to real-time SPL monitoring, particularly for live sound.
“We at Rational are, obviously, fans of innovative software and hardware solutions that provide audio professionals with the tools they need for greater system analysis, optimization and control. As soon as we saw what 10EaZy was capable of, we knew that it would make an excellent tool for the Smaart user base and an excellent match with Rational’s overall product philosophy.
“Smaart is the undisputed industry leader in software-based system analysis and we hope to bring that same level of industry acceptance and awareness to the 10EaZy product line.”
“Rational Acoustics is the perfect team to bring 10EaZy sales and support to the United States professional audio market.” notes Jacob Navne, SG Audio founder & president. “Rational is very well known for Smaart and has an excellent reputation for technical expertise and customer support; values we strive to provide through all of our distributors.
“Furthermore we see a very high level of synergy between 10EaZy and the core competences of Rational Acoustics, and we are very much looking forward to even greater cooperation between our companies in the future.”
