ROOM ACOUSTIC GEOMETRY

ACOUSTICALLY VERY DRY, SHALLOW TRAVEL, NO REVERBERATION

Fremont Studios has a strong background in studio design. Our proprietary approach is based on over 50 years of experience and an understanding of studio work.

Sound Control is achieved with a combination of products and styles.
- A sprayed, 2"-5", product called K-13.
  - K-13's superior acoustical performance is measured using the room reverberation method per ASTM C 423 to calculate a noise reduction coefficient (NRC). The resilient fibers of K-13 absorb sound energy instead of reflecting it, effectively reducing reverberation time and making it the perfect solution for entertainment venues and large sound recording studio environments.

- Soundstages are lined with naturally fire resistant sound absorbing curtains.

- - Our custom made, laboratory tested and field proven curtains and drapes reduce reverberation and echo, as well as reduce interference from outside noise. Curtains have tested NRC values (up to 1.00 NRC) to provide precise acoustical control.
  - These noise reducing curtains’ wool core material has also been shown to continuously filter harmful VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) from the air.

- Soundtraps
  - The west cyc wall is draped with, removable if needed, slotted 45 degree angled 20ft tall x 6ft deep pleated (6" x 12") drapery fullness to trap sound traveling from the main array sound system speakers installed on the performance platform stage. The feature reduces the reflection 100% from splattering back throughout the room. In addition the room was designed not square to manage acoustical bounce.
