A Truck Mounted Laboratory for the Diagnosis of Theater Acoustic Defects

Vesper A. Schlenker

Experience in acoustic diagnosis by application of Sabine's formula indicates the need of more comparative data for the solution of acoustical problems in theaters. For this purpose, the acoustical truck described in this paper was developed. The various uses of the truck and apparatus housed by it in studying reverberation, distortion, and transients, frequency characteristics, etc., of theaters are described. Oscillograms obtained in a number of such tests are presented.
