Features: This book is another significant work by the internationally renowned acoustician Professor Yasushi Ando, following his 1985 publication "Acoustics of Music Halls." It argues how sound source signals blend with the hall's acoustic field, exploring the relationship between optimal acoustic parameters, sound source signals, and auditory and brain auditory information processing mechanisms. The book introduces the author's experience in applying his theory to the acoustic design of the Gokokuji Music Hall in Japan, as well as the pioneering seat acoustic quality selection system implemented in the hall. It provides in-depth discussions on architectural acoustic design, computer simulation of acoustic fields, and audible technology. Translated by Professor Wu Shuxian and Associate Professor Zhao Yuezhe of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, this book is an invaluable and cutting-edge work in the field.
