 Proper
band and chorus room design should take into consideration
not only what the room will sound like, but also how
the music in that room will affect the adjoining rooms.
Typically these large rooms have hard reflective walls
and floors such as concrete block and tile floors and
there is a need for sound absorption. Adding acoustical
products such as ceiling tiles, acoustical foams or
fabric wrapped wall panels will reduce ambient noise
levels within the band or chorus rooms themselves. Sound
diffusers and bass traps are also commonly used within
band and chorus room design to acoustically tune the
room. Finally, sound blocking materials can be incorporated
into the design for the walls and ceiling of the room,
so that the band and chorus rooms do not disturb adjoining
classrooms. These acoustical materials should be planned
into the design of the band and chorus rooms, however
they can be added as a retrofit application as the need
for noise reduction within the facility is addressed.
These acoustical treatments are not only effective,
but also aesthetically pleasing.

room design, please call our technical sales staff at
