Presenter: Kevin Gross.
Abstract: Latency (or “group delay”) is a measure of time delay experienced by a signal passing through a system. Latency is increasingly recognized as an important performance metric for digital audio systems. Audio professionals accustomed to analog equipment may not be wholly familiar with latency's characteristics and effect on system performance.
What causes latency? How do we perceive latency? When is latency an important consideration? How much is too much? What can be done to mitigate latency? This tutorial will cover the fundamentals of latency and will draw on literature, engineering experience and live demonstrations to address these questions.
Free of charge--All are welcome (members and non-members).
Kevin Gross was born to a professor of television and radio production who found that audio and video equipment was an effective babysitter for her son. After earning his BSEE from the University of Colorado at Boulder Kevin went to work for Boulder-based WaveFrame Corporation, a pioneering developer of digital audio workstations, and helped develop an Oscar award winning disk-based audio editing system. Later with Peak Audio, he made key contributions to Peavey’s MediaMatrix signal processor.
Working for Peak Audio and Cirrus Logic, Kevin conceived and developed the CobraNet system for transport of real-time, high-quality audio over Ethernet networks. Kevin recently received the AES Fellowship award for his contributions to digital audio networking. CobraNet now serves as a universal digital-audio interconnect in facilities such as Disney theme parks; the United States Congress; airports, convention centers and stadiums worldwide.
Kevin comes by his knowledge of latency issues through his extensive development experience in digital audio systems, field experience in live and installed sound, formal and informal industry surveys, his experience as a musician and experiments in the basement.

Presenter: Floyd E. Toole, Ph.D., Vice President Acoustical Engineering, Harman International Industries, Inc.
Abstract:
Loudspeakers traditionally have been regarded as the 'weak link' in the audio chain of events. However, time has passed, and it is now clear that, at least for the better products, that is no longer the case. The big problem is the acoustical interface between the loudspeaker and the listener. It is a problem that defines the frontier of our scientific understanding of audio technology and the science that underlies it. Still, much is known, and it is essential to apply that knowledge at all levels of the audio industry, starting in the recording and film studios. It is there that the "art" is created and stored. Without equivalent audio standards there and in our homes and cars, consumers will never know why something sounds good or bad, was it the art, was it technology, or was it the interaction of both? This session will focus on the essentials of loudspeaker/room interactions, room dimensions, acoustical treatment, resonances, acoustical and electronic equalization, etc.
Free of charge--All are welcome (members and non-members)
Floyd E. Toole studied electrical engineering at the University of New Brunswick, and at the Imperial College of Science and Technology, University of London, where he received a Ph.D. In 1965 he joined the National Research Council of Canada, where he reached the position of Senior Research Officer in the Acoustics and Signal Processing Group. In 1991, he joined Harman International Industries, Inc. as Corporate Vice President - Acoustical Engineering. He also is Senior VP of Acoustical Engineering for the Harman Consumer Group. Dr. Toole's research focused on the acoustics and psychoacoustics of sound reproduction. Most notably, he established methods for subjective and objective evaluations which clarified the relationships between technical measurements of audio equipment and listeners' perceptions. All of this work was directed to improving engineering measurements, objectives for loudspeaker design and production control, and techniques for reducing variability at the loudspeaker / room / listener interface. For a papers on these subjects he has received two Audio Engineering Society (AES) Publications Awards, an AES Fellowship, and an AES Silver Medal Award "for significant developments in the subjective and objective evaluation of audio devices". Dr. Toole has published several papers in the journals of the AES and the Acoustical Society of America, chapters in two audio engineering handbooks, and numerous articles in consumer audio publications. He is a member of the ASA, and a past President of the AES.
