Tailored acoustic engineering services.
In the pursuit of acoustic excellence, the journey is just as critical as the destination. At REDI Acoustics, we've refined a process that doesn't just solve acoustic problems — it anticipates them, providing you with a tailor-made solution that ensures your room is acoustically optimized from every angle. Whether you're designing a state-of-the-art recording studio or a high-end home theater, our process integrates science, technology, and real-world expertise. Our specialized algorithms, NIRO and TORA, are powerful tools in our arsenal, but they are part of a larger, holistic approach to room acoustics design that is built on data, tested in theory, and proven in practice.
At the heart of any successful acoustic project lies a deep understanding of both the space and your specific needs. During the initial consultation, our team engages in a collaborative dialogue with you to lay down the acoustic goals and constraints for your room, setting the foundation for all the steps that follow. The dual-phase approach allows us to tailor our algorithms and design principles to your environment with remarkable precision.
For the NIRO phase, we require architectural drawings that detail the room geometry. Additionally, we need to know the specifications and quantity of the speakers you plan to use, as well as the desired listening positions. This information enables us to calibrate NIRO's algorithms to your room's unique characteristics.
Once the NIRO phase is complete and its recommendations are integrated into the room design, we transition to the TORA phase. For this, we need to know the available treatment locations and areas within the room, as well as the depths at which treatments can be placed. This data ensures that TORA's optimization is aligned with the room's updated state post-NIRO.
Room modes play a pivotal role in shaping the room's sonic characteristics, especially at low frequencies. Uneven distribution of these modes can lead to problematic nulls in the frequency response at the critical listening positions.
A balanced low-frequency response is key for the perceived sonic quality of a space. The placement of speakers directly influences the destructive interference caused by sound waves reflecting off nearby boundaries. This effect, known as Speaker-Boundary Interference Response (SBIR), heavily contributes to the low-frequency response at the listening position.
Sound's behavior over time is captured by the room's temporal decay and the reverberation time (RT60). While RT60 provides octave-filtered values of how long sound takes to decay by 60 dB in a room, the temporal decay spectrogram offers a detailed, frequency-specific visualization of sound decay over time.
Early, high-energy reflections can compromise the sonic image of a stereo system, particularly the phantom center. Managing these reflections and establishing a Reflection-Free Zone (RFZ) prevents frequency coloration and maintains audio clarity, which is crucial for critical listening.
The support and spaciousness of a room are significantly influenced by the behavior of its late reflections, known as the reverberant field. Ensuring this field is consistent across all frequencies, with diffuse reflections at specific angles minimizing ear-to-ear correlation, augments the immersive envelopment of sound in the room.
In line with established industry metrics, our optimization strategies integrate the foundational standards of acoustic engineering and the insights from the latest psychoacoustical research. This synthesis ensures that our rooms not only meet recognized technical criteria but also resonate with the nuances of the human auditory experience.
Embarking on Phase 1 of our process, the focus turns to the powerful Non-cuboid Iterative Room Optimizer (NIRO). Leveraging the data gathered during the initial consultation, NIRO employs multi-objective optimization algorithms to refine your room's acoustic properties. Specifically, it concentrates on optimizing the room's geometry and the positions of speakers and listeners to achieve several key objectives:
NIRO's optimization serves as the foundation upon which we build the subsequent phase, Treatment Optimization with TORA, ensuring a cohesive and holistic acoustic strategy from start to finish.
Transitioning to Phase 2, our attention shifts to the innovative Treatment Optimization for Room Acoustics (TORA). Building on the foundation set by NIRO, TORA employs multi-objective optimization algorithms to further enhance your room's acoustics. This phase zeroes in on adjusting the locations and characteristics of various acoustic treatments in the room, aiming to achieve the following critical goals:
The TORA phase is vital for meeting industry metrics and standards, ensuring that your acoustic environment not only sounds good but also stands up to rigorous performance standards.
Upon the successful completion of the NIRO and TORA optimization phases, we assemble comprehensive documentation that serves as the guiding blueprint for your acoustic design. These reports are available in two formats:
These documents act as a roadmap for architects, audio engineers, and contractors involved in the building or retrofitting process, ensuring a smooth and accurate implementation.
You can also view our sample reports, offering a preview of the level of detail and expertise that goes into our reporting.
The synergy between architectural design and acoustics is vital. With our services, architects can incorporate expert acoustical design guidance into their projects, ensuring that spaces not only look good but sound exceptional as well.
Those who specialize in the science of sound will find our tools indispensable. By utilizing wave-based and geometrical acoustics calculations, acousticians can design spaces that achieve a neutral sound signature with tight bass response, ensuring optimal audio performance in any given environment.
