Well established as a classic reference and specialised textbook, since its first publication in
1973, Heinrich Kuttruff's Room Acoustics combines detailed coverage with a state of art …

The first artificial reverberation algorithms were proposed in the early 1960s, and new,
improved algorithms are published regularly. These algorithms have been widely used in …

This paper presents a spatial encoding method for room impulse responses. The method is
based on decomposing the spatial room impulse responses into a set of image-sources. The …

Reverberation is considered as one of the fundamental perceived properties of an
acoustical space. Literature is available on the topic and currently a range of sciences have …

Subjective evaluation of acoustics was studied by recording nine concert halls with a
simulated symphony orchestra on a seat 12 m from the orchestra. The recorded music was …

Acousticians and other practitioners alike often describe acoustic conditions in performance
spaces with standard objective parameters. Apart from a few exceptions, the parameters are …

Publisher Summary This chapter explores sounds that evoke hedonic and aversive
responses in humans. The most commonly cited example is the sound of fingernails on a …

Human ability to perceive differences in sounds due to the modification of the phase
spectrum is studied in this article. Formal listening tests were arranged using synthetic …

One of the most thrilling cultural experiences is to hear live symphony-orchestra music build
up from a whispering passage to a monumental fortissimo. The impact of such a crescendo …
