    GOBOs are an extinct bird that was lost many years ago. Not really. They are those big panels we see moving around in live recording studios. They have three functions. Watch for their features and benefits.

    Hi Dennis, great information, makes me think outside the box, so to speak!
    3 questions for you, if I may, and I have no idea if they are half-baked or not...hehe
    1-Could a room be shaped with noise cancellation tech using mics and EQ/compression of some sort?
    and on a different note,
    2- Would the shape of a room ie oblong, round, askew, octagonal, or some type of asymmetrical wonky shape work better than square or rectangle?
    and,
    3- What about a basement built room with holes/slots for pressure/energy escaping?
    I was thinking of an octagonal room with strategically placed/sizable hole/sliding panels vented to the quiet outside basement space or foamed or directional/reflective cubbies...would any of these ideas help to relieve pressure/energy to create a proper live/balanced environment? I have a 1000ft rectangle cement space to play with.
    Like most, I am on a budget... Thanks, awesome info dude!!

    Yeah, I"ve used those clear plexiglass drum shields in live situations at small nightclubs. It helps prevent bleed through to vocal microphones and other microphones for other instruments, and it helps reduce the sound to the other musicians that are standing right next to you. But they sound like crap to me, the drummer. They are very bright. But the advantage is being clear and containing the sound so it does bleed through to other mikes is the biggest reason. I certainly would NOT recommend them for recording in a studio. They SUCK for that. A lot of casino bands use them so they can contain the drummer as much as possible, but still be able to see the drummer.
    What I would think would make a great GoBo is getting one or more of the QDA's with foam on the outside and having both a wide range absorption and quadratic diffusion, and HOPEFULLY maybe being something that will prevent bleeding to other microphones in the same room. It's at least something to play around with, for sure.

    What about Portable vocal booth, have u reviewed about this topic?
    thanks al lot

      P, We design our vocal rooms to specifically deal with the noise issues presented by the client. We measure the noise over 7 days and then design the vocal room to reduce the noise transmission of that particular situation. We guarantee our results. A portable structure will lack the necessary barrier technology to reduce noise transmission, especially at lower frequencies.

    I always assumed GoBo was a knickname for something to "Go Between"

    • @AcousticFields
      @AcousticFields  7 років тому

      Hi Steve, Yes, I have heard that myself. However, what is the technology or device that is "going between". It can be absorption/diffusion/barrier.

    GOBO means go between my gobos reflect on one side, absorptive on the other. but i hate dead rooms

    • @AcousticFields
      @AcousticFields  7 років тому

      Hi Jose, There always has to be a balance between absorption and diffusion. I also do not like dead rooms. Dead rooms are the result of too much surface area coverage with the wrong rate and level of absorption.

      Agree 100# I definitely believe that MOST tracking rooms are too sterile for my tastes, some properly miked room ambience allows the tracks to need less digital reverb to glue the tracks together. Don't want the tracks to sound like i have a head cold
