Re: impulse response....


Two thoughts on the last measurement posted...

First, it looks like you've got a rather dead sounding room - it would probably work well for movies, but how does it sound for music?

Second, the reflections are certainly attenuated, but they're still specular. If you put some diffusion in those location instead of absorption, you'll see the spikes widen into a bunch of little spikes. This will actually improve the intelligibility and make the room sound more spacious.

"It's territorial with the soundboard. So you're mixing and some dude comes by spewing opinions and trying to turn knobs. It's akin to going up to an artist and painting over his unfinished masterpiece. You just want to shove your paint brush up his nose and throw the soundboard out the window!"
