ANECHOIC CHAMBERS ~ AUDIO RECORDING AND BROADCASTING STUDIOS

SONEXclassic Panels

Audio Recording and Broadcast Studios
In recording and broadcast studios, acoustical treatment is generally required to solve one or both of these common problems.

• Excessive reverberation

• Acoustical flaws such as standing waves and flutter or slap echoes

The goal of studio treatment is to eliminate acoustical problems resulting from parallel hard surfaces that reflect sound waves.

Although architectural solutions such as concave or angled walls can help in reducing acoustical problems, a more practical and cost-effective solution is to treat existing room surfaces with sound-absorbing materials.

Recording studios can control unwanted
sound reflections and standing waves
by using SONEX panels; panels
should be installed on adjacent walls.

PROSPEC Barriers

Blocking sound transmission
Another common acoustical problem is the transmission of sound into or out of the studio through walls, doors and windows.

illbruck manufactures specialized PROSPEC barriers that are made to contain noise.  PROSPEC barriers are designed to duplicate the acoustical performance of lead sheets.  But unlike lead, our barrier is a safe and flexible vinyl with a special additive that adds tremendous noise-stopping abilities – even though the sheets are only 1/8” thick.  Installed at the construction phase, PROSPEC barriers can be threaded inside stud cavities to increase a wall’s acoustical performance.  PROSPEC barriers can also be used to cover the top of a drop ceiling to improve the acoustic properties of the suspended ceiling system.
