Workshop Overview

Requirements

The Electroacoustics seminar is suitable for all levels of experience.

The Goal

To gain further understanding of the principles of electroacoustics for sound system design and engineering. Discover how loudspeakers interact with their environment and how to achieve intelligible sound for every listener. Novices and students will gain new skills, while those with more experience will enjoy refreshing their knowledge.

Content

The focus of the day is on achieving intelligibility. If you’re passionate about sound, you want to deliver clear, intelligible sound to every seat in the house. Most sound engineers have a good knowledge of the electronic signal path but are less sure of the acoustic signal path between the loudspeaker and the listener’s ears.

We will:

• Further our understanding of sound fundamentals and explore some physics concepts through experiments and practical demonstrations.

• Analyze the addition and subtraction of sound waves, considering the drawbacks and benefits.

• Explore how sound behaves in different environments and the factors affecting propagation.

• Define the parameters of a well-behaved (and poorly behaved) loudspeaker.

• Look at the d&b acoustics calculator and learn how it can help in system designs (participants will receive a copy).

Throughout the session, we will cover essential acoustics and physics concepts. Instead of a “chalk and talk” approach, we will use listening, practical experiments, and discussion rather than a traditional blackboard lecture.

Method

The workshop uses practical examples, encourages participants to share experiences, and promotes active participation.

Duration and Time

One day.

Documentation

Relevant materials will be provided.

Certification

A certificate of attendance is available upon request.
