Abstract

From the Publisher:Acoustics and Psychoacoustics is a comprehensive book designed to provide a broad-ranging introduction to the subject of acoustics including the principles of human perception of sound, sometimes called psychoacoustics. It is ideal for students of music technology, sound recording, traditional music and acoustics, as well as engineers studying audio, multi-media and communications systems, and is geared very much towards those who want a practical understanding of how real musical sounds behave and are perceived in real spaces. It will also help those who need to use acoustics principles in the design of equipment, instruments and rooms and it will benefit those who make recordings. Whilst introducing all of the main fundamentals the text is easy to read and avoids non-essential mathematics. It is written for engineers, musicians and students, and there are plenty of worked examples for study.
