Abstract
The acoustic characteristics of the former “La Fenice” theater has been analyzed. Binaural measurements of the IRs were performed on a large number of measuring points within the hall. Following the recent ISO standard 3382 [1], many mono and binaural acoustical parameters were calculated from the impulse responses, such as reverberation time, clarity, center time, strength, initial time delay gap, inter-aural cross correlation, and others. Finally, the Ando’s preferences maps were developed, taking into account two different kind of musical signals. The measurements underlined the peculiar acoustical behavior of the Theater, characterized by a greater initial decay of the reverberant tail, and a subsequent reverberation that allowed a remarkable fusion of the sound and sustain to the musicians.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
