CONSIDERATIONS
The initial time delay gap ie the time delay gap between the
sound received by a listener and the first reflection from any
bounding surface of the room is shorter than 20 msec ,the direct
is not too faint and the room is found to be acoustically intimate.
Acoustical intimacy is one of the most desirable features of
an auditorium used primarily for music.
Another important room-acoustic feature of a hall used for music
is balance. It can be achieved by numerous sound-reflective and
sound-diffusive surfaces around the sound source to strengthen
and improve the balance between various sections of the
orchestra as well as between the orchestra and soloists.
If the musical sounds are well mixed before they reach the
listener, so that they are perceived as harmonious ,the sending
end of the auditorium is said to have good blend.
The reflective and diffusive orchestra enclosures control
blend. If an orchestra platform or orchestra pit is too wide, it
will lack a good blend
If the musicians and soloists have the ability to perform in unison
so that the entire orchestra sounds like a well-rehearsed and
coordinated unit, the music hall is said to possess ensemble.
Ensemble can be enhanced by a well proportioned and suitably
raked stage floor and by stage enclosures that project the sound
from one side of the platform to the other
Freedom from noise, ie the reduction of exterior and interior
noises to inaudibility or at least an acceptable minimum, is one
of the most important requisites in auditoriums for music
Another essential room acoustic quality is the complete
freedom from acoustical defects such as echo, sound
concentration , distortion and sound shadow
