How Sound Works (In Rooms)

Acoustic Geometry shows how sound works in rooms using Nerf Disc guns, 1130 feet of fluorescent green string, and Moiré patterns, and a before-and-after example.

This guy was way ahead of his time on YouTube. 7 years later, 2020 for God's sake. There still are no tutorials that can top this. Bring this guy back.

A classic example of how to make a winning demonstrative video. Clear, concise and just the juice! Excellent.

Where do I get the wooden clapper that causes absorbers and diffusers to appear?

[monkeyrobotsinc.]

i just leave a lot of junk lying around. works perfect.

Why is a simple video like this not the first video that shows up when I search?

[velvetimpulse]

I've watched hours worth of "tutorials" on acoustics and sound proofing rooms, but nothing, NOTHING came even close to these 3:33 mins. I feel enlightened! Thank you!

Really one of the best viedeos i have seen for acustic treatment

[dontnukeluke]

Why is this just made in exactly the manner that every instructional video should be made in? Brilliant!

[Greenjah]

Dig your nerf guns explanation. Totally perfect way to explain to an sound uneducated person. Well done.

This video is a superb demonstration of why and how a live band mix changes once the audience arrives, especially indoors.

Well explained with clarity.
I love the nerf gun example.
It took me a while to understand after complicating me with golf ball theories when I studied room acoustics.
Wish our teacher explained like this.

Omg why was the switching back and forth from the treated room to the untreated room so incomprehensibly satisfying?! I could honestly watch that all day long lol

As an artist with a home studio - This is an excellent example of room acoustics - I see why it’s so important and I appreciated the demonstration with the wooden clappers at the end - made all the difference in my understanding! ☺️

Amazing how just a few panels makes such a big difference in that room when he is clapping

[bjones]

This by far is one of the best videos about echoed sound ive seen thus far. . . Straight to the point with a long drawn out explanation. He even had examples.. i love it !

[Geffimusic]

Finally a video that is easy to understand and concise

[barleymob]

Extremely informative. I've learned as a musician how important room acoustics are for recording but it's insane to think about how much this science is actually applied by life on earth without the vast majority of life even considering why or how it's possible. Normally lifeforms process these noises without even thinking twice about them, but they even help us navigate the world around us. Blind humans that have learned the art of echolocation are a perfect example of this. I would never want to lose my eyesight or sense of touch, but losing my hearing would be even more devastating to me.

Imagine an alternative YouTube where _all_ videos were this informative/useful!

[theopats]

When you can explain difficult things and make them easy, it means that you have really understand it. Well done

2:55 isn't a demonstration of how sound changes with absorption panels. It's actually him applauding himself for this incredible video.
