Sound diffusers and adaptation♔

Long time ago I wrote diploma about material for fight against high decibel sound pressures. Also I wrote some articles about soundproofing the home studio, home cinema rooms for sound adaptation. 

But I have forgotten about third effect of sound waves - diffusion. Difusion in home adaptation of walls is using a barriers, panels, balls, piramids 3d skyscrapper mosaics, binar plates etc. Everything is for diffuse impact of front of sound wave and take the energy of sound to different, random or almost directions. 

It is urgent for good guitar, percussion, speech recognization, realisation of home speaker systems such as Hi-Fi, HomeCInema, recording testing. 



Room full of sound proof materials, no echo at all

Our ears do not like no echo effect in rooms. Anechoic chambers are really torture for human. It is weird sensation. Our sensoric integration cannot find the source of sound for example speaker, guitar. No echo or almost zero echo it is weird for recognization as band member. If you have 4 persons playing in room full of isolations you cannot hear tones. Your sensoric integration between feeling vibrations, visualisation vector of sound wave by eyes. THe position of musicians are not visible for human brain in phisiologic. Situation causes put extra gain and volume of every guitar, bass, keyboard, speaker, vocal microphone loudspeaker, amplifier, mixer console up to maximum before noise, and give negative impct of ears and musical logic. 

In that weird room you feel only sound directly from speakers and mirrored from band members, instruments and wood parts from instruments. In that position you cannot even proper position of speakers in that room. 

Tonotopic maps are a striking feature of the mammalian auditory cortex and underlie the representation of complex sounds, such as speech. This spatial separation of frequencies originates in the inner ear, where high frequencies are processed in the base of the cochlea and low frequencies in the apex.



Cochlea


Full reflective room

Ideal echo in room sometimes is better than full soundproof
It is depend on sound pressure level. Resistance of air is -3dB each 1 meter from speaker or different sound source. 


If the sound pressure is bigger we got similar situation like in well acoustic proof room. 

Our brain hears sounds from nature from grass, from trees, from stones. In normal houses we got lamps, paints, mirrors, carpets, plaster on walls, curtains and tables, beds, shelves with books. All of these are good examples of not bad sound adaptation materials. 

Sounds of guitar, bass, acoustic, electric, ukulele is in term of acoustics types of behavior


1. SOUND ABSORPTION IN MATERIAL
enery of wave going through border material-air and change inside material to heat, left inside material,

2. SOUND REFLECTION
energy of wave reflects from border material-air and come back to source. 

3. SOUND DISPERSION, DIFRACTION, DIFFUSION

sound difracts on shape of materia, wave front change direction in function of shape. Change angles, vectors, directions, bend on edges of material,.some part of energy enters to material like in absorption. 


Corect set of diffusors on walls and/or ceiling could do extra clarity of tones. Give better balans, than rooms with lot of absorption and reflection. It is better to good understanding between musicians, speakers. 

All dimensions and shape causes different transmission of sound in room.
