During the Show, Dr Evert Start, from Duran Audio's R&D team, will be hosting a seminar entitled Modern Loudspeaker Array Theories and Technologies. The seminar will take place on Tuesday 11 September in lecture theatre 3, from 10.30am - 12.00pm.
The seminar will cover the basic physics of loudspeaker arrays and show how the directivity of loudspeaker arrays can be altered using 'beam steering' or Digital Directivity Technologies. "We will also investigate how these technologies can help achieve high levels of speech intelligibility and music clarity in even the most difficult of acoustic spaces and also how the technologies can be used to gain directivity at low frequencies," says a spokesman. "The theory and technologies discussed can be applied to both the worlds of Commercial Audio and Sound Reinforcement."
Dr Evert Starts contribution to the field of electro-acoustics was recognised at the Institute of Acoustics' 22nd annual 'Reproduced Sound' conference in 2006, where he was presented with the Peter Barnett Memorial Award, in recognition of his work in improving levels of speech intelligibility in highly reverberant spaces.
