The Effect of Reinforcement System Regeneration on Gain and Reverberative Decay

Authors: Uzzle, Ted

AES Convention 74 · Paper 2019 · October 1983

Abstract

Classical techniques for predicting sound distribution and decay in a room assume no sound regeneration in the system. The presence of even modest amounts of regeneration can result in sound levels several, decibels above those predicted by feedforward analysis only, and times on the order of a second for 60 decibels of lop decay after the source of the sound is shut off. Computation and measurement methods are given.
