Space Acoustics

James Y. Dunbar

The relationship between the area, shape, and fitments of a sound studio or auditorium and their effect on sound quality is discussed. A probable evolution of music appreciation, from the pentatonic and whole-note scales of certain primitive peoples to harmony, as we know it today, is traced. Various methods of acoustical treatment of enclosed areas are described and illustrated.
