As we've all learned, taming the acoustics of a room with absorption is an essential element for capturing and reproducing high-quality audio performances and broadcasts. AudioTile accomplishes this quite effectively while offering eye-catching designs that will make any room stand out from the rest.<BR><BR>Make no mistake; while AudioTile's coolness factor is high, there is still plenty of science behind the art. Varying thickness built into each patent-pending AudioTile delivers excellent broadband sound absorption*, while the design patterns allow a unique means of blending absorption, diffusion, and reflection for optimum acoustical balance tailored to any room. <BR><BR>As AudioTile's tessellated panels are spread out, broadband absorption is maximized and the areas of exposed hard surface provide high frequency scattering. By doing this, we accomplish several major goals: providing a room with good low frequency control, creating a very tight sound in areas where drums or amplifiers might be placed, and simultaneously offering a nice reverberant sound in upper areas where overhead and/or ambient room microphones would be placed.<BR><BR>This design approach can give a room a very natural-sounding ambience while controlling undesirable acoustical anomalies. As you might imagine, AudioTile is perfect for a wide variety of aesthetic and acoustical environments. The result is a well-controlled space essentially void of reflection issues, but that's not a "dead space," and a frequency response with minimal low-frequency modal concerns.<BR><BR>For voice, it can yield a "locked-on" fundamental of the voice talent-no hollowness or resonance, simply a clear-open response. This is exceptionally suited for today's broadcast standards that require the highest-quality mics, mic preamps and processing. And there is still more science behind this great product: AudioTile uses Auralex's proprietary Studiofoam sound proofing formula. It's the same formula that tens of thousands of our customers have entrusted to deliver Studiofoam's superior durability and Class B flame retardancy for the past 25 years.<BR><BR>Back to the art part: AudioTile designs are fun and exciting and the possibilities are almost endless for you to create one-of-a- kind designs that fit the personality of your room.<BR><BR>* Maximum broadband absorption: 0.81 absorption coefficient @ 125 Hz. Max. NRC = 1.0 to 1.05 depending on installation.
