My girlfriend a viola player and she brought in our listening room her quarter to do some reading. I was very concerns about the acoustic quality of my listening room and I did not design for live music but rather for audio. I feel that musicians will not find my listening room to be too short in reverberation time. It is might be fine for practicing and learning but it might not be too beneficial for performing when they want to have “grandiose” room response.
The musicians played in my listening room, they did like the acoustics. I need to confess that I removed from the room all room treatment that was not attached to the walls. I personally do not feel that they were too critical as I did feel that the sound was a bit too “high resolution”, at least to my taste. Later on, when we played my audio I felt that I would like to have a bit less “live” room then it was.
All of it brings me to an interesting question: Acoustics for Music vs. Acoustics for Audio how to combine it. It would be interesting to design some kind of concept that would make room to be adjustable and by literally turn of switch the room moderate the HF reverberation time. I am thinking about it now and I do have some interesting ideas… share yours if you had those objectives and had some success stories. Ten years back there was a lot of buss in my software word about Agile Software Development, so why not to invent a concept of Agile Acoustic Treatment?
