RT60 Calculation

Room size

With 9.5 ft
lenght 11.0 ft
Height 6.5 ft

RT Value

125 Hz 0.32
250 Hz 0.41
500 Hz 0.53
1000 Hz 0.99
2000 Hz 0.87
4000 Hz 0.87

Now what do i do with those value ?

how much absorbing panel (2'x 4' ... 1" or 2" or 3" in thick whould be better ???

I all ready have put the deep bass trap

I am looking for some mid/hight absorbing

solution but the RT60 is realy confusing

help ?

What is the room used for? No way to know what the target should be without knowing the usage.

That's a really small room. My total WAG based on it being a control room and seeing where you are now would be at least 2 2" 703 panels and 2 1" panels. That's likely not enough but should help balance things out a bit.

More likely, looking at where things should go - let's say 3 1" panels on the front wall behind the monitors and between - and 2 2" panels - 1 on each side wall for reflections.

This room is mainly for recording ...

target to be is to make it as flat at possible...

how flat can someone expect to be in +/- db ?

You don't really want your recording room to be flat, bro. Furthermore, without making it a completely "dead" room, it's not a realistic goal.

I think the room is too small for any good ambience ???


thanks Il try to get picture up tonight ...

also Downloaded Room EQ will try to get some

frequency mesurements

Absolutely. If this is for tracking, you don't want it really dead. Diffusion will be almost impossible due to the size. You might put up just a couple of soft panels to tame things a little bit and maybe a cloud up on the ceiling.

Other than that, I'd think about some movable hard gobos to break up the flat parallel surfaces.

Finaly done the picture with some info on it



The speaker are for playback music only

open to suggestion

what is better for Mid/hight absorber

flat against the wall or 1" off ???

if so off the wall what kind of treatment must

be done to the back of the board ???

Spacing from the wall will extend how far down the absorbers go - provided you leave the back open.

i can't remenber where I saw a gragh (picture)

showing [absorbtion vs thickness vs frequency]

can anyone point me to a link ?


thanks !!!

Adam,

There's some data in the Forum FAQ:

Is that what you're thinking of?
