Divide and Conquer – The Schroeder Frequency

October 14, 2021 in Acoustics, SynAudCon Library /by Pat Brown

by Pat Brown

Not all sound energy in a room is reverberation. The Schroeder frequency divides the spectrum based on sound wave behavior.

It has been understood for centuries that the behavior of sound waves indoors is frequency-dependent. The room … Read more

A Contrast of Statistical and Geometric Room Acoustic Analysis

May 17, 2021 in Acoustics, SynAudCon Library, Test and Measurement /by Pat Brown

by Pat Brown

Statistical and geometric room acoustics analysis have been with us for well over a century. Computer modeling makes geometric acoustic analysis (GA) practical at the drawing board. This article contrasts the two methods.

The room impulse … Read more
