Fuzzmeasure acoustisoft for mac#
FuzzMeasure is an acoustic measurement tool specifically constructed for Mac computers, so I decided to give it a go see how it worked, and how it helped me in my quest for better room acoustics. I came across FuzzMeasure, created by the award-winning Ontario-based creative studio SuperMegaUltraGroovy. I’ve recently moved studio spaces, and was wanting to discover more about the acoustics in my room, and where/how to treat them. When we’re sitting at our desk trying to mix a tune, however, these errant sound waves can become quite a nuisance. For the most part, our brains use these reflections to judge distance, direction, and a host of other subconscious cues informing of the world around us. Soundwaves are pinging back and forth from all the surfaces around us. I hope that gives a better idea of my background.Ever curious about how your rooms acoustics are? Are you getting issues in your mix in consistent frequency areas? Do you find the volume of certain notes on the keyboard disproportionately loud or quiet to the neighboring notes?Įvery room on the planet (aside from anechoic chambers) have sonic reflections. He on the other hand will have a lot of brushing up to do. I know it will take a lot of time and studying on my part.

I want to get a jump start on my learning curve so I can keep up with him.
Fuzzmeasure acoustisoft software#
I want to gather as much information and chose a good design program so he and I can hack on the new software together. I am just limited to only old programs he used back in the 80s such as Trans Dimensional Research (a cabinet design program that run in DOS). So I guess you can say I have the building, finish work and PC experience down and enough knowledge to be dangerous. He is also a R/C enthusiast with another 15 years experience on me. He was building cabinets professionally as early as the late 70s and is now a senior Linux admin and programmer of various languages. My father was a 12v shop owner for 25 years. I am also a 20 year veteran R/C pilot (heli for 5 and plane for 20) and scale plane designer/builder to boot. I have just about every tool imaginable at my fingertips. My fabricating, building and finishing talents are exceptional. I can swap between measurement data with a given crossover and see how it looks with both the on/off axis measured data (the Z doesn't change That way you can model the off-axis data with the real off-axis measurement.
Fuzzmeasure acoustisoft drivers#
I also like to get off-axis measurements for the drivers while its in the same position. Measure the Z in the same set-up but obviously you can take your proto -box off the stand.
Fuzzmeasure acoustisoft driver#
Take the second FR, if your doing a 3-way take the third driver FR measurement, etc. Set your levels and take one measurement, then swap to the other driver without moving the mic or changing levels. Make sure your well into the far field of the loudspeaker.

Measure FR for the drivers in the enclosure they are to be used in about 2M (more for something like a line array). You have to start with good clean data to get good repeatable results. I built a support for doing this so that I get good clean measurements. Do your measurements outdoors, with the enclosure about 8ft off the ground. You should have a basic idea of how they are to be used from Manf. Measure your drivers in the enclosure you are going to use them in. You also need tools that have a learning curve and will spend a lot of time making bad speakers before you make good ones. Its a deep subject that takes a multi-disciplinary knowledge base. I'd hate to add up the hours I've spent learning, measuring and building.
