Abstract:
1. A method comprising a computer program, stored in at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage media, executable by at least one processor for: determining at least one reflection of sound from a sound initiation location at a location within a great hall, such that the at least one reflection is selected from the group of reflection angles consisting of: a floor reflection with a delay between 0.5 and 1.5, side left reflection with a delay between 5.0 and 30.7, side right reflection with a delay between 7.9 and 34.8, upper left reflection with a delay between 25.4 and 69.1, upper right reflection with a delay between 28.7 and 71.4, ceiling reflection with a delay between 39.4 and 83.9, ceiling corner left reflection with a delay between 43.0 and 92.5, ceiling corner right reflection with a delay between 45.3 and 92.8, rear wall reflection with a delay between 7.2 and 175.3, side-rear left reflection with a delay between 11.8 and179.8, side-rear right reflection with a delay between 14.6 and 179.5, upper corner rear left reflection with a delay between 31.1 and 192.0, upper corner rear right reflection with a delay between 34.3 and 191.5, ceiling-rear reflection with a delay between 44.6 and 198.3, wherein the delays are measured in milliseconds; comparing the time delay for the at least one reflection with the time delay for the corresponding reflection angle selected from the group of reflection angles; and modifying the design of the great hall to bring each reflection within the time delay range for the corresponding reflection angle selected from the group of reflection angles.
