Sounds Good: Videos

This video, produced by Institute of Physics (IOP), shows how the work of a university research scientist helps sound engineers control the quality of sound in a theatre.

The video is presented as a whole and, for ease of use, in four sections:

Acoustic engineering: the design of theatres is influenced by the work of research scientists (3.39)

Studying sound: special rooms are used to control conditions for studying sound (6.53)

Controlling sound: quality of sound is controlled by using the correct techniques (5:47)

Using sound: you can change sound quality in your room using techniques used in concert halls (1:16)
