How do we use these waterfall plots, especially at low frequencies if the RT60 become meaningless?
The waterfall plots don't show RT60, they show the actual decay of each frequency across a band, which is what we need to see at low frequencies. RT60 is a single figure that summarises the decay across the entire band or some section of it (octave bands are fairly common), but a single number doesn't give any information about which specific frequencies are decaying slowly and which are decaying normally.
