Acoustical soundproof wall panels for auditorium

Author: Kevin Richard

The aim of auditorium design is to deliver proper clarity to real sound for all the members of the audience regardless of their seating position. Singers, musicians, performers, public speakers all require quality soundproof wall panels in the auditorium, so that every word is apprehensible and the music is served with incredible harmony.

The audience wants to experience incredible acoustics having minimum dead or alive spots in the auditorium. The sound deadening material chosen for soundproofing an auditorium should be long-lasting, first class fire rated, decorative, and to absorb sound reflections to control background noise and also to deploy the sound waves to ensure more exposure and balance to the sounds arising from the stage.

Treatment for soundproofing

By installing decorative, fire-rated wall or ceiling sound panels in an auditorium and thereby ensuring generator enclosure, the sound reflections and also their echoes within the room can be controlled better to deliver top quality sound. Echoing sound waves in the auditorium will be received by the specifically designed architectural sound panels for transforming sound to kinetic energy. Diffusion panels will assist to deploy the reflected sound waves to offer balance to the live and dead spots in the auditorium. You should also install sound panels behind the musicians or as a background in the stage for controlling reverse echo. The perfect auditorium is generally fan shaped with a curved or sloped ceiling and inclined floor sloping down towards the stage region.

Acoustic outcomes

The acoustic panels meant for mechanical isolation by soundproofing an auditorium will get and transform the unwanted background noise, lessening echo time to a couple of seconds. This will cause better clarity of speech for the audience, and also the tones served by the musicians. The diffusion panels deploy the noise for enhanced balance deployed all across the room regardless of the seat location. This will offer a better enjoyable experience and make sure that the audience will return again.

Extra soundproof wall panels for your auditorium

Properly designed auditoriums are designed with surfaces that assist to break up the standing sound waves. Preventing deployment of the acoustics and dead spots in the room are two other functions accomplished. If the room is like a gym, there will be repeated reflection of the sound waves. This will enhance the possibility of dead and live spots, and therefore you require more diffusion panels. Remember that an absorptive panel lessens the background noise, and the diffusion panels deploy sound reflections in different directions for better acoustic balance in the area. For auditoriums that are shaped like a fan with sloping floors, a 10 to 1 ratio between the soundproof wall panels and the number of diffusion panels are suggested. The idea is to absorb enough background noise in the auditorium to create incredible speech clarity, but leave sufficient reecho in the space to blend the music tones together.
