    Acoustic panel installation in a conference room, to reduce office ceiling echo Soundproofing in a studio isolation booth. Acoustic panels (also sound absorption panels, soundproof panels or sound panels) are sound-absorbing fabric-wrapped boards designed to control echo and reverberation in a room. [1]

  4. Sound masking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_masking

    Many times, walls are lightweight and do not extend to the ceiling deck, but only to the ceiling tile. In these cases, sound can easily travel through partitions or over the walls. Sound masking can be provided in adjacent private offices, or in hallways outside of private offices, to ensure that confidential conversations remain confidential.
