Acoustics for Gymnasiums & Indoor Recreation Facilities
Gymnasium Acoustics - Improve Sound by Reducing Echoes & Reverberation
Anyone who has been in a school gymnasium, recreational center, or activity center knows the almost deafening build-up of sounds from sneakers squeaking, people yelling, footsteps, music, scoreboard buzzers, and even the sounds of bands or performers. Why is the acoustical experience so awful? High ceilings, hard and flat surfaces, and open spaces are some of the worse culprits of echo and reverberation. And since many gymnasiums are also multi-purpose spaces (used for concerts, banquets, conferences, performances, or other assemblies) problems with gymnasium acoustics must be addressed in order for clear sound to be heard.
