This glossary of terms has been provided with a brief description, for the most part in non technical terms in an effort to remove some of the mystery surrounding Acoustics.
While the explanations may not be totally correct in their literal interpretations it is hoped that the plain language approach will provide a better understanding of the terminology frequently used in the field of acoustics. The science of Sound. Its production, transmission and effects. The properties of a material to absorb or reflect Sound (adjective) Acoustically, (Adverb). Sound Absorption. All building materials have some acoustical properties in that they will all absorb, reflect or transmit sound striking them.
Conventionally speaking, acoustical materials are those materials designed and used for the purpose of absorbing sound that might otherwise be reflected. Sound absorption is defined, as the incident sound that strikes a material that is not reflected back. An open window is an excellent absorber since the sounds passing through the open window are not reflected back but makes a poor sound barrier. Painted concrete block is a good sound barrier but will reflect about 97% if the incident sound striking it.
12 Home Studio Necessities #8 – Acoustic Treatment. Acoustic treatment is arguably one of the most important components of your home studio.
Sadly, it’s usually the most neglected area. Most folks would much rather buy a new mic or new studio monitors than bother with acoustic treatment. Or they’ll buy plug-in bundle after plug-in bundle, praying that one of them would be able to “fix” their mixes. Oftentimes the problem isn’t the gear, it’s the room. Think about it. A Big Shoebox Most home studio owners are using a spare bedroom or office. You know how your studio monitors are supposed to have a flat frequency response, so you can accurately hear what you’ve recorded?

French readers, see THIS version that is being translated by Christian Parent. Hungarian readers, see THIS version that was kindly translated by Tamás Bánfi. Everything is included except the sidebars. I've been pleased to see the current growing interest in acoustic treatment. These days, all gear is acceptably flat over the most important parts of the audio range. What's the point in buying a microphone preamp that is ruler flat from DC to microwaves when the acoustics in your control room create peaks and dips as large as 20 dB throughout the entire bass range? Practical Acoustic Treatment, Part 1. Tips & Techniques Technique : DIY PART 1: PAUL WHITE examines the basic principles of acoustic treatment in order to help you improve your recording and monitoring environment.
This is the first article in a five-part series. Read Part 2, Part 3, Part 4 and Part 5. There is a lot of confusion between soundproofing and acoustic treatment, but hopefully the recent series on Soundproofing (SOS February '98 to June '98) will have helped to explain the difference. A good listening room invariably combines appropriate absorption with scattering to break up strong reflections. The accurate acoustic treatment of a room cannot be undertaken based purely on theory, because, as we'll see later, the formulas used are not precise for small rooms, and the building materials involved may not have the same acoustic properties as stated in the tables of standard values you sometimes find in textbooks and materials catalogues.
The secret is to improve the room by doing as little as possible to it.
