ACOUSTIC GEOMERTY

ROOM  ACOUSTIC GEOMETRY   - ACOUSTICALLY VERY DRY - SHALLOW TRAVEL - NO REVERBERATION
Fremont Studios ownership 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.


K13
Interior Ceiling is spray insulated with 3"- 5" of cellulose fibers combined with natural fire retardants to produce a Class A, Class 1 rated material with R-Values exceeding R-22.

Soundstages are lined with naturally fire resistant sound absorbing curtains.

CUSTOM CURTAINS, 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.

SOUND - TRAPS
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.

SILENT HVAC SYSTEM

HVAC SYSTEM
Built from the ground up for sound recording and ​public assembly. 
Trane Voyager 50 Ton system , ​chill's & heats, with ground supports to rooftop - spring isolated on rooftop pedestal - allowing silent interior operation.

AIR FLOW DUCTS
Massive 4' x 3' air flow duct-ways allow silent, evenly distributed, air movement throughout the studio A for live sound recording.

HEAVILY FILTERED
Air exchange, 360,000 cubic feet, is constantly cycled and fully replenished every 11 minutes.
Air Flow Exceeds Covid 19 Safety Recommendations.
