There must be thousands. But there is a lot of commercially-available software that *calculates* field patterns for any reasonably simple physical set-up. Both symbolic and finite element analyses are possible. You seem to be proposing to invent the wheel. -- Regards, John Woodgate, OOO - Own Opinions Only. http://www.jmwa.demon.co.uk Interested in professional sound reinforcement and distribution?
