Abstract

Akustikte, müziğin yaratıldığı, kayıt, mix ve mastering uygulamalarının gerçekleştirildiği odalar, kritik dinleme odaları altında sınıflandırılır. Profesyonel stüdyolarda bu alanlar ciddi mimari ve akustik tasarım süreçleri sonucunda oluşmaktadır ve hoparlörlerden çıkan direkt sesin dinleyiciye minimum değişim ile ulaşması temeldir. Günümüzde ev stüdyoları da önemli kritik dinleme alanları sayılmaktadır. Ancak ev stüdyoları, akustik kriterlerin sağlanmasında, tutarsızlıkların, zorlukların hatta imkansızlıkların görüldüğü kritik dinleme odalarıdır. Ev stüdyoları gibi küçük hacimli kritik dinleme odalarında erken yansımalar önemli duyum sorunları yaratırlar. Hoparlörlerden odaya yayılan direkt sesteki “duruluk” hoparlörlerin yan yüzeylerinden, tavan ve zeminden, çalışma masalarından ve masa üzerine yerleştirilen objelerden yansıyan erken yansımalar ile bozulmakta ve odadaki frekans tepkisinde istenmeyen etkiler oluşmaktadır. Bu makalede ev stüdyolarında erken yansımalarla ilişkili olan akustik bozulmalar ele alınarak, odalarda yer alan çalışma masalarından kaynaklı duyusal etkiler simülasyon yöntemi ile değerlendirilmiştir. Ölçüm ve değerlendirmeler sonucunda çalışma masalarından kaynaklanan erken yansımaların alt ve orta frekansların işitsel algısında belirgin olumsuz etkileri olduğu gözlemlenmiştir.

A simulation study on the auditory effects of early reflections from work desks in home studio acoustics

Abstract

In acoustics, the rooms in which the music is created, recorded, mixed and mastered are classified under critical listening rooms. In professional recording studios, these rooms are meticulously built, based on detailed architectural and acoustical design processes and one of the main principles of the room’s acoustic design is to carry the direct signal from the speakers to the listener with as minimal acoustic coloration as possible. Nowadays, home studios also function as important critical listening spaces. Nevertheless, home studios show acoustical inconsistencies, difficulties, and even impossibilities in providing the acoustical criteria related to critical listening room acoustics. Early reflections are the cause of important aural deteriorations in small critical listening environments such as home studios. The “fidelity” of the direct sound emanating from the speakers is affected by the early reflections - bouncing off the lateral surfaces, ceilings, floors, work desks and the objects on the desks – which cause unwanted comb filtering in the frequency response. In this article, the acoustical deteriorations based on early reflections will be discussed, the adverse effects of early reflections reflecting from the desks in home studios will be evaluated through acoustical simulations. In the light of the measurement results and evaluations, it has been observed that the early reflections originating from the work tables have significant negative effects in the aural perception of lower and middle frequencies.
