Reverberation time is a measure of the time required for the sound to "fade away" in an enclosed area after the source of the sound has stopped. When it comes to accurately measuring reverberation time with a meter, the term T 60 [ 6 ] (an abbreviation for reverberation time 60 dB) is used.
In a reverberant space, the sound perceived by a listener is a combination of direct and reverberant sound. The ratio of direct sound is dependent on the distance between the source and the listener, and upon the reverberation time in [the room]. At a certain distance the two will be equal. This is called the "critical distance."
The first reverb effects, introduced in the 1930s, were created by playing recordings through loudspeakers in reverberating spaces and recording the sound. [2] The American producer Bill Putnam is credited for the first artistic use of artificial reverb in music, on the 1947 song "Peg o' My Heart" by the Harmonicats.
Reverberation is the persistence of sound caused by repeated boundary reflections after the source of the sound stops. This principle is particularly important in enclosed spaces. Diffraction is the bending of sound waves around surfaces in the path of the wave.
The most appropriate reverberation time depends on the use of the room. RT60 is a measure of reverberation time. [9] Times about 1.5 to 2 seconds are needed for opera theaters and concert halls. For broadcasting and recording studios and conference rooms, values under one second are frequently used. The recommended reverberation time is always ...
English: Very simplified diagram: sound level in a reverberant cavity excited by a pulse, as a function of time. RT60 is the reverberation time. The small variations (small vertical peaks) of the pressure along the lines are not shown.
British mobile phone company O2 has unveiled an “AI granny” called Daisy who is helping combat fraud by wasting scammers’ time with long phone calls.
Dereverberation of audio (speech or music) is a corresponding function to blind deconvolution of images, although the techniques used are usually very different. Reverberation itself is caused by sound reflections in a room (or other enclosed space) and is quantified by the room reverberation time and the direct-to-reverberant ratio. The effect ...
