A Comparison of the Variable Acoustics of Two Foley Studios for Sound Effects Recording

摘要

In both studios the reverberation time with curtains open is too low, resulting in a critical distance close to distance of sound source and studio boundary walls. This makes it difficult to do good diffuse sound recordings. Also, the measurements results show that the most important difference between the two Foley Studios is the difference in diffuseness of the sound field with the curtains opened. It is very likely that this is the reason that the studio with a good reputation is favored. Also, the measurements show the importance of controlling reflections inside a Foley Studio.
