Understanding Sound Diffusion and the keys to use it effectively

[@jonathanharris185]

I like the new style / format / look of the new video!

[@GIKAcousticsLLC]

Glad you like it!

[@pbenson56fran]

Thank you for your other video for Bass Traps and the Pink Noise download. Thank you for this helpful information as well.

[@GIKAcousticsLLC]

Glad it was helpful!

I've looked unsuccessfully for good before and after videos of what treatment can do in a church application. Not just for spoken word but for modern worship music. It's hard to convince a pastor or church board of how beneficial treatment would be with just the clap test and spoken word videos. If you could do a video that demonstrates the advantages in a live service that would be awesome. Plus it would be a useful tool in selling your product to people who don't understand acoustic treatment.

[@GIKAcousticsLLC]

This is a great idea, Shane. Thank you for sharing that, we'll definitely consider it!

[@digitalclonaid8195]

Interesting information, unfortunately, it does not have subtitles in Spanish. But still it is quite understood and talks about the improvements one can make to their study room. I don't understand how they can give it a (👎🏽), if the idea of ​​the video is to report 😲🤦‍♂️😂😂 great job and great video, hopefully they can add subtitles in the next videos and see if they sell their products internationally ✌️🇨🇱

What as completely omitted and is paramount for assessing diffusion or absorption is - distance to the listener spot.

[@rb032682]

cool stuff.

[@gnpd07]

your haircut is an effective diffuser.

It does seem to make them scatter.

I want to record ONLY vocals in a 10 x 14ft room with carpet on the floor, dry wall and window with blinds on the 10ft wall. I do plan to use a portable ISO BOOTH for VOCAL RECORDING ... would this be enough or would you recommend more acoustic treatment ?

[@GIKAcousticsLLC]

Thanks for the question. It completely depends on the quality you are looking for. While you'll see an immediate improvement in simply only using the VISO or the PIB alone, we still suggest having a complete acoustics strategy to combat any and all first reflections (mainly side walls and ceiling) that may be able to find their way back into the microphone's pickup pattern. This includes acoustic panels or creating a "room" using two PIBs facing each other to create a reflection-free space, since there is a chance some reflections from behind or above can make their way into the recording. PIB (portable isolation booth) -www.gikacoustics.com/product/pib-portable-isolation-vocal-booth/ VISO Booth - www.gikacoustics.com/product/viso-portable-vocal-isolation-booth/ If you would like custom tailored advice to your specific room, please fill out our easy form and you'll get your question in front of one of our talented acoustic designers. www.gikacoustics.com/acoustic-advice-form/

@@GIKAcousticsLLC Big Thanks for the feedback ...

[@bravedave90]

I don't think it's necessary in my apartment living room of 200sqft. But, could I put a one-dimensional diffusion panel on the back wall behind my couch? The listening position from back wall is probably too small but even foot.. But, I like the decorative look of those diffusion panels but wouldn't want to disrupt the sound coming from speakers in the room overall.

[@amyhelie6061]

Tell us what materials to use..

[@carcar5911]

My room is 12 by 11. Very small. Is there any way to get a diagram of where diffusers and absorbers should br?? 7.2 with a 12 inch sub in each corner.

[@GIKAcousticsLLC]

I'd recommend filling out our advice form. If you sketch your room up in our visualizer you can attach it to the form and one of our designers should be able to place treatment in the model to show you. www.gikacoustics.com/acoustic-advice/

[@duroxkilo]

i'm not sure i understand the concept of 'even scattering' let alone 'perfectly even scattering' even if the sound waves were to hit a panel perpendicularly... take for example the awesome pattern @1:14. where would i position a sound source to hit all the sides of the panel at the same time and angle? far away, dead center? that would result in a symmetrical scattering pattern but that's not the same as 'even'. anyways, that cloud panel @3:35 is insane :)

[@M.Holland]

It still diffuses me.

[@riktascale4]

I don't know if it is worth buying diffusion products for my studio. I have a studio H13'XW14.3'XL22.8' that is treated. I now use Barefoot footprint01 monitors,...... an up from my focal solos. My only issue is a -9db null at 125hz. Everything else that is +/-1.5db more or less is flat due to sonarworks ref. 4

[@GIKAcousticsLLC]

Thanks for the comment. That is a good question. So much depends on your setup and existing treatment and the features of the room which goes well beyond just having great monitors. It may be worth looking into with one of our designers. We give 100% free advice if you would like.

[@mackensonpetit8155]

Do you suggest diffusers for small room mostly on the back wall or not toi it and only use absorbers?

[@GIKAcousticsLLC]

For small rooms you want to make sure there's enough absorbers to thoroughly treat your Bass. If the diffusion you want to use takes up the space of a Bass trap you needed then it's probably not the best choice. Combination diffusors/absorbers might be useful as you can absorb the loser ranges while scattering the mid and high tones.

[@mackensonpetit8155]

@@GIKAcousticsLLC thank you so much, I will have thick panel about 6" in the corners (2 for each corner) and 2 panels in my first Reflection point, in my front wall and also my back wall and the ceiling as well. But I wanted to add some diffusers at the back and front wall too but I want your advices on that setup. Thank you in advance

[@GIKAcousticsLLC]

While we believe it is best to first ensure you're getting proper bass response, we can absolutely give you advice for your specific room, and we'll need more information. Visit gikacoustics.com/acoustic-advice-form/ and we can not only see your room dimensions, but look at what exactly you'll be able to accomplish with your budget and goals.

Diffusion confusion :/

[@benjoe999]

ahh man. 500hz is too hard to diffuse

[@simonkotschenreuther4730]

Nice content, but its almost not possible to listen to him properly because of the terrible annoying background music that is way too loud

[@torus186]

Diffusing is confusing.

[@audiononsense1611]

well as a professional I can say this company does not!!!

[@GrazerPitbull]

Viel zu Teuer ich zahle doch nicht für eine Bassfalle 172 € wenn ich in jeder Ecke 2 stück brauche ! Das is mir viel zu teuer.
