Acoustic Physics Calculators

Interactive previews of the physics behind the product — standing waves, boundary dips, early reflections, and treatment estimates. Fast in the browser; full solvers live in the 3D room builder.

SBIR & Wall Dip Visualizer

Drag a speaker on the floor plan. Plot quarter-wave cancellation dips from front, side, and rear walls — then hear the null.

  • Quarter-wave nulls
  • FR dip plot
  • Hear the dip
  • Drag-to-place speaker

First-Reflection Mirror Auralizer

Locate specular mirror points, see early-reflection comb filtering, and toggle a virtual panel to flatten the highs.

  • Mirror coordinates
  • Comb-filter plot
  • Virtual panel toggle
  • Audio A/B

3D Room Mode Explorer

Browse axial, tangential, and oblique modes to 250 Hz with a pressure heatmap. Drop a desk and check for bass nulls.

  • 3D pressure heatmap
  • Desk null warning
  • Mode table to 250 Hz
  • Seat auralization

How Many Panels Do I Need?

30-second quiz: room size, use case, construction → RT60 estimate and a bass-trap / reflection / cloud breakdown.

  • Sabine RT60 estimate
  • Role-based breakdown
  • Studio / theater / hi-fi
  • Construction materials

Room Mode Calculator

Calculate axial, tangential, and oblique standing wave frequencies for rectangular rooms. Includes Schroeder crossover analysis and modal spacing.

  • Side wall & ceiling cloud geometry
  • Step-by-step mirror test
  • Panel placement guidance

Porous Absorber Calculator

Model an absorption-coefficient-vs-frequency curve from flow resistivity, thickness, and air gap using the Delany-Bazley-Miki model.

  • Delany-Bazley-Miki model
  • Flow resistivity presets
  • Air gap tuning
  • Normal & random incidence NRC
