Practical Instruction on the Art and Science of Acoustic Design and Architecture
Build your own acoustic environments such as recording studios, control rooms, and home listening rooms with expert insights from two engineering professionals. Fully expanded to cover the latest methods and software tools, Master Handbook of Acoustics, Fifth Edition presents clear explanations of acoustic phenomena and provides a hands-on approach to room design. Learn how to perform acoustic measurements, choose room dimensions, assign speaker placement, analyze response curves, and design and install sound absorbers and diffusers. You will also find details on how to fine-tune room reverberation, minimize external noise, and apply psychoacoustic concepts.
Master Handbook of Acoustics, Fifth Edition explains how to:
Determine how sound propagates in open and enclosed spaces
Measure sound-pressure levels and work with decibels
Analyze the characteristics of room modal resonances
Treat rooms for optimal early reflections, reverberation, and diffusion
Minimize acoustic distortion, comb-filter effects, and HVAC interference
Construct high-quality stereo and surround-sound listening rooms
Design personal and professional recording studios and control rooms
Understand the acoustics of auditoriums and concert halls
Optimize room designs using measurement, modeling, and auralization software
F. Alton Everest is a legend in the world of sound. The creator of numerous technical innovations, and the author of scores of books and scholarly papers, he has been a leader in television engineering, sound recording, motion pictures, radio, and multimedia. A co-founder and director of the Science Film Production division of the Moody Institute of Science, he was also a section chief of the Subsea Sound Research section of the University of California. An educator who has taught at several leading institutions, he has consulted on acoustics to numerous industries for nearly 30 years. Having touched many of the technical highlights of the 20th century, he celebrated his 90th birthday in 1999. He and his wife live in Santa Barbara, California. Ken C. Pohlmann is Professor and Chairman of the Music Engineering program at the University of Miami at Coral Gables, FL. He is also the President of Hammer Laboratories. He has written over 800 articles on audio topics, speaks all over the world, and received the Audio Engineering Societys Fellowship Award for his work.
