The pictures above are screen shots of 3 balloon popping tests recorded by the program Dirac.

Each line at the bottom of the screen represents 1 second of time, therefore the amount of time it takes for the sound to decline below the threshold of human hearing is accurate when compared to the Sabine equation and online Sabine calculator.

This is the online Sabine Calculator found at: http://www.sengpielaudio.com/calculator-RT60.htm
The materials used for each of the surfaces might not be accurately correct, but have been given a suitable alternative. This result has therefore given a result very similar to the result given by the Sabine equation found on the page for the traditional methods used on this room Click Here |

This test was not entirely necessary in determining the acoustic qualities of the room the same way that Dirac can. But it can determine the resonanct frequencies of the room, so if there were any that were discordant or that would lead to problems in a performance then they would be identified by this program. It is used in real time, such as during a performance, sound check or when altering the Front-Of-House EQ, which is why I recorded it using a Fujifilm FinePix S2970 camera, as it was the only way that the results could be shown. |
