Rooms used for remote recordings or live stages are sometimes acoustically inappropriate for the purpose, e.g. when working in churches or industrial venues. Some simple and cost-effective methods for designing the reverberation response of a room are investigated. Aim of this work is to show simple and cost-effective solutions for acoustic optimization of highly reverberant rooms with mobile materials. Absorption coefficients of materials like blankets or tarpaulins are measured in several typical situations.
