Sound System Engineering 4th Edition, Davis and Patronis


Sound System Engineering 4th Edition PDF Download Ebook. Don Davis, Eugene Patronis and Pat Brown offer accurate, complete, and concise tool for all those involved in designing, implementing, and testing sound reinforcement systems. This new fourth edition includes eight new chapters leading the reader through both cutting-edge topics—e.g., IBM’s proposed thought-controlled sound system—and solid basics, such as loudspeaker specifications, wave equations, and digital audio.

Topics covered include psychoacoustics and how the brain processes sound, digital theory, mathematics for audio systems, using the decibel, interfacing electrical and acoustical systems. Audio and acoustic measurements are explained by considering large room and small room acoustics, designing for acoustic gain, designing for speech intelligibility, wave equations, microphones, loudspeakers, loudspeaker arrays, and loudspeaker directivity.

Packed with numerous illustrations and useful appendices, this is a concentrated capsule of industry standards and knowledge that spans the complete range of sound systems, from the simplest all-analog paging systems to the largest multi-purpose digital systems.

Written by two leading authorities in the field of audio engineering, this highly respected guide covers the basic principals necessary for the understanding of today's systems as well as for those systems yet to come.

Don Davis and his wife, Carolyn, founded Synergetic Audio Concepts in 1972. Don and Carolyn are both Fellows of the Audio Engineering Society. Don is a senior member of the IEEE and a gold member of the Acoustical Society of America. Don and Carolyn received dual lifetime achievement awards from NSCA, the Adele De Berri Pioneers of Audio award from InfoComm International, and the USITT Harold Burris-Myer Distinguished Career in Sound Design Award.
