Kurzfassung:
A significant concern for recording in acoustically small spaces is that they often sound zingy, splashy, fluttery or resonant, or (with attempts at treatment) small, choked, dry, and lifeless. Either of these extremes is not conducive to a good recording experience for the performer or the recording engineer. At the same time, variable acoustics has been an elusive goal in small spaces. Passive solutions are generally ineffective, since one’s perception of a small room’s acoustical character is driven primarily by the room volume and the mean free path. Technological advancements in electronic architecture, and specific adaptations of that technology to the challenges of deploying it in small spaces, have made it an affordable application for recording studios. When combined with appropriate natural acoustics, this approach can achieve acoustical results not possible by treatments alone. The apparent volume, surface treatments, and resulting reverberant energy can be modified in real time beyond the constraints of the physical space, both for what the performer experiences within the space, and for what the engineer can capture in a recording. The essential considerations for using electronic architecture in a recording studio are illustrated using examples from recent projects.
