Sound Technology and Acoustics Principle

(1) Acoustic history When a tree in the forest collapses, a loud sound is heard, but no one is in this virgin forest, so this sound is not heard. Is this a sound coming out? The sound is definitely coming out, because when the trunk and branches touch the ground, they all produce some sound, but no one hears it, but the sound is heard by humans or other animals. It is different, so this is the psychology (Psychoacoustics).
The acoustic principle I am talking about here is mainly to let a tuner understand all aspects of acoustics, not acoustic research, or acoustics of master's and doctoral degrees, so the acoustic theory I have covered in this book is It can actually be used by people who operate the sound on site.
In 1915, an American named E. S. Pidham put a telephony listener on the horn of a record disc, and the sound was given to a group of people celebrating Christmas in San Francisco. Electroacoustics was born. After the end of the First World War, at the inauguration of President Harding in the United States, Bell Company connected the phone's dynamic listening device to the horn of the record player at that time, and was able to pass the voice to the president. A large group of people at the ceremony, so many professional audio research and the development of sound reinforcement engineering. Sound researchers are not only trying to improve audio equipment, but also doing various experiments to understand human response to hearing. But the most advanced audio research people understand that sound science is a holistic study. To understand every aspect of audio equipment and human physiological response to hearing, they have made great contributions in the past years and now. As early as 1877, Sir Raleigh of the United Kingdom had already done acoustic research. He once said: "All problems, whether directly or indirectly related to sound, must be decided with our ears because it It is our organ of hearing, and the decision of the ear should be the final decision. It is no longer necessary to accept the appeal. But this does not mean that all audio research is done by the ear alone. When we find that the foundation of the sound is a When we detect the phenomenon of physics, we must turn to another area of ​​physics. It is physics. The important rate can be studied from this aspect, and our hearing sense must accept these rates." It can be seen from the above paragraph that even in the absence of electroacoustic sound generation, older scientists believe that this is the realm of physics.
The famous scientist, Lord Calvin of the United Kingdom, often said: "When you measure what you say and can express it with numbers, you have some knowledge of it. But if you can't express it with numbers, then your Knowledge is still rudimentary and imperfect; for anything, this may be the source of knowledge, but your mind has not yet reached the realm of science.” Lord Calvin (1824—1907) was the best of the 19th century. One of the scientists, in order to commemorate the great man, the absolute temperature - 273.16 degrees Celsius is named 0 degrees Calvin.
Don & Carolyn Davis is the author of the book Sound System Engineering. Known as the Acoustic Bible, this book is almost a must-read for every foreign research sound. I quote this passage in his book: "The knowledge of mathematics and physics is a necessary condition for understanding sound engineering in essence. The deeper the understanding of these two kinds of science, the more you can cross the feelings that you get from feelings, The use of science to cite the facts. The famous audiophile James Moore once said: 'In sound science, anything that seems obvious on the surface is usually wrong.'
I quoted the instructions of several scientists and audiologists above, mainly because most of the people who do audio today are of course interested in sound and music, but think that they can identify what is right by their hearing. Good or bad sound, I don't understand that this is a professional engineering knowledge, it is not good sound. Sir Lai Li, who was far away from the 19th century, has pointed out that this is a scientific realm. Modern sound engineering is also working hard like other scientific academics, so acoustic engineering is inseparable from mathematics and physics.
(2) The live sound and the sound of the studio are separately operated in the live sound here. It has many different places from the recording technology. Many people think that the highest level of sound is the recording technology. This is not comprehensive. of. In the recording technology, basically there is no feedback, because when operating in a recording studio, all the peripheral factors can be controlled, but in the live audio replay, we can not avoid many live audio problems. So live audio and recording audio are two different kinds of learning. The requirements for live audio and studio audio are different, so there are many different devices. For example, in the mixing console used in the recording studio, each input has a plurality of parameter equalization, so that the sound engineer can finely adjust the input source of each input as much as possible to achieve the best sound source effect. A mixer for live audio, usually in each of its inputs, the balance is relatively simple. Because many times, the live tuner does not have a lot of time to fine-tune the sound source of each channel. In addition, the volume control fader of each channel in the live sound mixer can not only attenuate the volume, but also Can gain 10-14 dB. If you are working on a mixing studio for the studio, this putter does not need to be used for a lot of time, so the English name of this putter is fader, which means the attenuator. For high-power amplifiers used in live audio, they all have fans for cooling purposes, because live audio amplifiers often work at maximum power output, and there are many times when you are doing live sound outdoors, the surrounding temperature may be quite high. If you are in the studio, there will usually be air conditioning, the temperature will of course not be too high, and the amplifier in the recording studio is mainly used to push the monitor speakers. Of course, there is no need to output a large amount of power, so the amplifier only needs to use ordinary The heat sink can dissipate very little heat. If the amplifier is equipped with a fan, the sound from the fan will cause noise, so the amplifier in the recording room basically does not need a fan.
The speakers used in live audio, in order to spread a large sound pressure to the audience at a long distance, so they need to be very efficient, but the monitor speakers used in the recording studio are used by the sound engineer to monitor the sound source or The final result of the recording, the sound engineer is sitting close to the monitor speakers to monitor, so the monitor is a near-field speaker, does not require high sensitivity, the effect is completely different from the live audio speakers.
(3) The relationship between audio and wavelength Many live tuners do not care about the relationship between audio and wavelength. In fact, this is very important: audio and wavelength have a direct relationship with the speed of sound. At an altitude of air pressure, at a temperature of 21 degrees Celsius, the sound speed is 344m / s, and I contact domestic tuner, their usual sound speed is 34Om / s, this is the speed of the sound at 15 degrees Celsius, but The main thing to remember is that the speed of the sound changes with the air temperature and air pressure. The lower the temperature, the higher the molecular density in the air, so the speed of the sound will decrease, and if it is done at a high altitude. Sound, because the air pressure is reduced, the molecules in the air become scarce, and the sound speed increases. The relationship between audio and wavelength and sound is: wavelength = sound speed / frequency; λ = v / f, if the sound speed is assumed to be 344 m / s, the wavelength of 100Hz audio is 3.44 m, the wavelength of 1000hz (ie lkHz) It is 34.4 cm, and a 20 kHz audio wavelength is 1.7 cm.
(4) High, medium and low frequency of the speaker. For example, we now have an 18-hour cone speaker unit, which is installed in a wood-made speaker. The panel area of ​​this speaker is 1 square meter, which is the height of the panel. And the width is l meters. How do we calculate the high, medium and low frequencies of this speaker? First we have to calculate the diagonal length of the speaker panel, which is the square root of 2 = 1.414m, and the l/4 wavelength of any frequency is more than 1.414m. For this speaker it is low frequency; if the l/4 wavelength of a frequency is 1.414m, the wavelength is 4×1.414m= 5.656m, this frequency=344m/s÷5.656m=60.8/ s = 60.8 Hz, so any audio below 60.8 Hz is its low frequency for this speaker. When the frequency of 60.8 Hz or lower is transmitted from this speaker, their diffusion image is spherical, which is equal to the volume of these frequencies before and after the speaker and above and below when we hang the speaker in the middle of a room. The sound pressure emitted is almost the same, and the sound that is released becomes non-directional. When the l/4 wavelength of a certain frequency is smaller than the diagonal length of the speaker panel, but this wavelength is greater than the radius of the speaker, this frequency is the medium frequency of the speaker. For example, we now use an 18-hour unit with a radius of 9 inches, which is 22.86cm=0.2286m. This audio is 344m/s÷0.2286m=1505Hz. The frequency from 60.8Hz to 1505HZ is the medium frequency of this speaker. . The shape in which the medium frequency is diffused from the speaker is hemispherical. That is, if we release this frequency from the speaker that was hung in the center of the room, the shape of the sound diffusing from the speaker panel is hemispherical. Behind the speaker is the sound that does not hear this frequency. The frequency of 1505Hz and higher is its high frequency for this speaker. The shape of the sound that is diffused from the speaker at a high frequency is tapered, and the higher the frequency, the narrower the shape of the cone. Usually, if the frequency exceeds 4 times of the start of high audio, the shape of the sound will slowly become a straight line without spreading. If it is not sitting in the position of the alignment unit, these high frequencies will not be heard. Therefore, if many high-frequency units are paper cone type, the diameter of the paper cone is very small, and the high-frequency lower limit of the speaker is increased as much as possible, and it is desirable to increase the width of the high-frequency diffusion. We often see tweeters in home audio speakers, usually with a 1-2 cell or a hemispherical unit, for this reason. The tweeter of the professional live sound, because it has to emit a large high-frequency sound pressure, it must be treated with a horn.
(5) Different kinds of sound fields When a cone speaker receives the signal from the power amplifier, the paper cone will shake forward and backward. When the paper cone advances, the paper cone hits the air molecules in front of it. The air in front of the cone increases the pressure, and the molecules continue to push forward, colliding with the air molecules in front of them, causing a slight high pressure. When the cone is retreating, the air molecules in front of the cone create a slight vacuum, and then the molecules follow the cone back, causing a slight pressure drop in the air. But let's not forget that the air is elastic, but the air in front of the cone is just shaken by the action of the cone, and it cannot reach the elasticity of the air itself. At this time we have to look at the wavelength of this frequency, the sound is to leave until When the distance of the paper cone is 2.5 times the wavelength, the air exerts the elasticity of the sound. For example, a 100Hz frequency, its wavelength is 3.44 meters, so the sound is about 2.5 × 3.44 meters = 8.6 meters away from the paper cone, is the true 100Hz sound. If 10OHz is used, the distance from the paper cone is less than 8.6 meters, which is the near sound field of lOOHz, and more than 8.6 meters is the far sound field of 100Hz. Why do we need to understand the far and near sound field? Many times the electric bass player in a band, he often does not understand the effect of the near sound field, and on his electric bass speaker, there is an equalization knob is written Bass is the title of this musician. The electric bass player usually stands in a place not far from the electric bass speaker. If he stands in the near sound field, sometimes he feels that the bass is not enough, he will adjust the Bass equalization knob as much as possible, but the audience is Their position will hear very strong bass, and often cause bad results. These strong basses will also run into the singer's microphone. If the tuner feels that the singer's voice is not enough, he will improve the singer's voice, but at the same time, the electric bass will also increase the volume. The sound has encountered difficulties. The lowest E string of the electric bass is 41Hz, but because the pickup is placed at the end of the string, the first harmonic of the 41hz 82Hz is the main electric bass low frequency, and the 82Hz wavelength is 4.2m (344m/s). Divided by 82/s = 4.195m), so about 10 meters away from the electric bass speaker is the 82Hz far sound field, and because the electric bass player does not stand so far away from his speaker, The sound he heard was only the near sound field, not the sound heard by the audience. So when we talk about the far and near sound field of the speaker, the most important thing is to notice the frequency and its wavelength, instead of simply looking at how far away from the speaker is equal to the far or near sound field, the most important thing is to remember when we listen to music, To be in the far field, not in the near sound field.
(6) Direct sound field, reflected sound field, and non-direct sound field. When the speaker makes a sound in a room, the listener can hear the sound directly from the speaker. This is the direct sound field (indirectfield), but it can also be heard. The sound reflected from walls, ceilings and floors is called the reverberant field. The more the direct sound field is heard by the audience, the smaller the sound of the reflected sound field is, the better the sound is, because the sound of the direct sound field is controllable, but the sound of the reflected sound field is uncontrollable, only The sound from the direct breeding field will be dyed to reduce the clarity of the original sound, so the listener who is closer to the speaker will feel a better sound, and the audience sitting behind is likely It is the reflected sound field sound that they hear is louder than the direct sound field sound, the sound effect will be worse and the clarity will be reduced. Sometimes when a band plays on the stage, because they don’t have a monitor, and the main speakers on both sides are placed close to the mouth, the sounds heard by the band and the singer are not completely from the direct sound field. The position of standing is called the direct sound field, and the sound effect is certainly not good. This will also affect the performance level of the band, and the audience will not hear the sound of the performance.
(7) Interface Interference When we choose to place the speaker, it is important to note that the sound from the speaker is affected by the interface next to it. For example, the main speakers placed on both sides of the table, their bass cones off the ground and the wall next to it, if it is about 1 meter, a 4 meter wavelength audio will be interfered by these two interfaces. A frequency of 4 meters is 86Hz (344m / s ÷ 4m = 86Hz), when the sound of 86HZ is released from the speaker, the large air pressure just hits the ground and the wall within 1/4 weeks, and then l/4 The week is reflected back in front of the cone of the speaker, but this time the cone is retreating. The large air pressure reflected from the ground and the wall will be offset by the backlash of the cone, causing the loss of important bass. If this happens, you should move the speaker back to the table 0.5-1 meters, so that the sound from the speaker can't directly hit the ground, and if you can move the speaker to the wall near the two sides, you can use the wall. The reflection system makes a louder volume. 80-100Hz This frequency is very important. It is the resonance point of our lung space and the resonance frequency of the bass drum. If it is because the interface is not understood, the position where the speaker is placed is wrong. It is really not worth it. .
(8) High and low bass effects It is difficult for us to specify a certain frequency above the high pitch or below a certain frequency. We often say that the human hearing is from 20Hh-20KHz, but the frequency of 20kHz is rarely heard by people. Usually Only young people under the age of 20 can only be heard if their ears are not damaged. If you do an auditory test, the highest listening frequency is only 8 kHz. When the sound is transmitted, the high frequency is much faster than the low frequency attenuation. If you compare 1 kHz with 10 kHz, when the sound ran 100 meters, the 10 kHz 'frequency will attenuate 30-35 dB compared to the I kHz volume. (See Figure 1) High frequency sounds are more directional than low frequencies. After the high-frequency sound comes out of the unit, if it is blocked by the object, the high-pitched sound can no longer be transmitted. This is very different from the low frequency, because the high-frequency wavelength is relatively short, and it will not be blocked by the object. Turning, but the low-frequency wavelength is relatively long, so many times even if an object is blocked in the front, the low frequency can also turn. For example, some professional speakers are designed to put a high horn in front of its woofer, but for the low frequency emitted by this woofer, it simply can't see what is blocking the sound in front, so low frequency It can be passed on as usual. From our auditory point of view, we need to hear high-frequency sounds to distinguish different types of sounds, but if we simply talk about people's conversations, we only need to hear the frequency of 4kHz and below, we can immediately identify What is the person talking. For example, the voice transmission of the phone, the high frequency only reaches 4 kHz, so sometimes when a person who has not talked to you for a long time, when he calls you, just say "Hey!", you can immediately identify him. You haven’t heard the voice of a friend for a long time. We listen to high frequencies and have directionality, that is, we can identify the direction of high frequency sound sources. Because the high-frequency sound has passed to our two ears, there is already a very small time difference, so when they come to the ear, there are different phase changes. Can we identify this by changing the phase?

(3) The relationship between audio and wavelength Many live tuners do not care about the relationship between audio and wavelength. In fact, this is very important: audio and wavelength have a direct relationship with the speed of sound. At an altitude of air pressure, at a temperature of 21 degrees Celsius, the sound speed is 344m / s, and I contact domestic tuner, their usual sound speed is 34Om / s, this is the speed of the sound at 15 degrees Celsius, but The main thing to remember is that the speed of the sound changes with the air temperature and air pressure. The lower the temperature, the higher the molecular density in the air, so the speed of the sound will decrease, and if it is done at a high altitude. Sound, because the air pressure is reduced, the molecules in the air become scarce, and the sound speed increases. The relationship between audio and wavelength and sound is: wavelength = sound speed / frequency; λ = v / f, if the sound speed is assumed to be 344 m / s, the wavelength of 100Hz audio is 3.44 m, the wavelength of 1000hz (ie lkHz) It is 34.4 cm, and a 20 kHz audio wavelength is 1.7 cm.
(4) High, medium and low frequency of the speaker. For example, we now have an 18-hour cone speaker unit, which is installed in a wood-made speaker. The panel area of ​​this speaker is 1 square meter, which is the height of the panel. And the width is l meters. How do we calculate the high, medium and low frequencies of this speaker? First we have to calculate the diagonal length of the speaker panel, which is the square root of 2 = 1.414m, and the l/4 wavelength of any frequency is more than 1.414m. For this speaker it is low frequency; if the l/4 wavelength of a frequency is 1.414m, the wavelength is 4×1.414m= 5.656m, this frequency=344m/s÷5.656m=60.8/ s = 60.8 Hz, so any audio below 60.8 Hz is its low frequency for this speaker. When the frequency of 60.8 Hz or lower is transmitted from this speaker, their diffusion image is spherical, which is equal to the volume of these frequencies before and after the speaker and above and below when we hang the speaker in the middle of a room. The sound pressure emitted is almost the same, and the sound that is released becomes non-directional. When the l/4 wavelength of a certain frequency is smaller than the diagonal length of the speaker panel, but this wavelength is greater than the radius of the speaker, this frequency is the medium frequency of the speaker. For example, we now use an 18-hour unit with a radius of 9 inches, which is 22.86cm=0.2286m. This audio is 344m/s÷0.2286m=1505Hz. The frequency from 60.8Hz to 1505HZ is the medium frequency of this speaker. . The shape in which the medium frequency is diffused from the speaker is hemispherical. That is, if we release this frequency from the speaker that was hung in the center of the room, the shape of the sound diffusing from the speaker panel is hemispherical. Behind the speaker is the sound that does not hear this frequency. The frequency of 1505Hz and higher is its high frequency for this speaker. The shape of the sound that is diffused from the speaker at a high frequency is tapered, and the higher the frequency, the narrower the shape of the cone. Usually, if the frequency exceeds 4 times of the start of high audio, the shape of the sound will slowly become a straight line without spreading. If it is not sitting in the position of the alignment unit, these high frequencies will not be heard. Therefore, if many high-frequency units are paper cone type, the diameter of the paper cone is very small, and the high-frequency lower limit of the speaker is increased as much as possible, and it is desirable to increase the width of the high-frequency diffusion. We often see tweeters in home audio speakers, usually with a 1-2 cell or a hemispherical unit, for this reason. The tweeter of the professional live sound, because it has to emit a large high-frequency sound pressure, it must be treated with a horn.
(5) Different kinds of sound fields When a cone speaker receives the signal from the power amplifier, the paper cone will shake forward and backward. When the paper cone advances, the paper cone hits the air molecules in front of it. The air in front of the cone increases the pressure, and the molecules continue to push forward, colliding with the air molecules in front of them, causing a slight high pressure. When the cone is retreating, the air molecules in front of the cone create a slight vacuum, and then the molecules follow the cone back, causing a slight pressure drop in the air. But let's not forget that the air is elastic, but the air in front of the cone is just shaken by the action of the cone, and it cannot reach the elasticity of the air itself. At this time we have to look at the wavelength of this frequency, the sound is to leave until When the distance of the paper cone is 2.5 times the wavelength, the air exerts the elasticity of the sound. For example, a 100Hz frequency, its wavelength is 3.44 meters, so the sound is about 2.5 × 3.44 meters = 8.6 meters away from the paper cone, is the true 100Hz sound. If 10OHz is used, the distance from the paper cone is less than 8.6 meters, which is the near sound field of lOOHz, and more than 8.6 meters is the far sound field of 100Hz. Why do we need to understand the far and near sound field? Many times the electric bass player in a band, he often does not understand the effect of the near sound field, and on his electric bass speaker, there is an equalization knob is written Bass is the title of this musician. The electric bass player usually stands in a place not far from the electric bass speaker. If he stands in the near sound field, sometimes he feels that the bass is not enough, he will adjust the Bass equalization knob as much as possible, but the audience is Their position will hear very strong bass, and often cause bad results. These strong basses will also run into the singer's microphone. If the tuner feels that the singer's voice is not enough, he will improve the singer's voice, but at the same time, the electric bass will also increase the volume. The sound has encountered difficulties. The lowest E string of the electric bass is 41Hz, but because the pickup is placed at the end of the string, the first harmonic of the 41hz 82Hz is the main electric bass low frequency, and the 82Hz wavelength is 4.2m (344m/s). Divided by 82/s = 4.195m), so about 10 meters away from the electric bass speaker is the 82Hz far sound field, and because the electric bass player does not stand so far away from his speaker, The sound he heard was only the near sound field, not the sound heard by the audience. So when we talk about the far and near sound field of the speaker, the most important thing is to notice the frequency and its wavelength, instead of simply looking at how far away from the speaker is equal to the far or near sound field, the most important thing is to remember when we listen to music, To be in the far field, not in the near sound field.
(6) Direct sound field, reflected sound field, and non-direct sound field. When the speaker makes a sound in a room, the listener can hear the sound directly from the speaker. This is the direct sound field (indirectfield), but it can also be heard. The sound reflected from walls, ceilings and floors is called the reverberant field. The more the direct sound field is heard by the audience, the smaller the sound of the reflected sound field is, the better the sound is, because the sound of the direct sound field is controllable, but the sound of the reflected sound field is uncontrollable, only The sound from the direct breeding field will be dyed to reduce the clarity of the original sound, so the listener who is closer to the speaker will feel a better sound, and the audience sitting behind is likely It is the reflected sound field sound that they hear is louder than the direct sound field sound, the sound effect will be worse and the clarity will be reduced. Sometimes when a band plays on the stage, because they don’t have a monitor, and the main speakers on both sides are placed close to the mouth, the sounds heard by the band and the singer are not completely from the direct sound field. The position of standing is called the direct sound field, and the sound effect is certainly not good. This will also affect the performance level of the band, and the audience will not hear the sound of the performance.
(7) Interface Interference When we choose to place the speaker, it is important to note that the sound from the speaker is affected by the interface next to it. For example, the main speakers placed on both sides of the table, their bass cones off the ground and the wall next to it, if it is about 1 meter, a 4 meter wavelength audio will be interfered by these two interfaces. A frequency of 4 meters is 86Hz (344m / s ÷ 4m = 86Hz), when the sound of 86HZ is released from the speaker, the large air pressure just hits the ground and the wall within 1/4 weeks, and then l/4周就反射回到音箱的纸盆面前,但这个时候刚巧纸盆要后退,原来从地面及墙壁反射过来的大空气压力就会被纸盆后退的动作抵消很多,造成失去了很重要的低音。如果遇到这个情况,就应该把音箱向台后退0.5-1米,让音箱所发出来的声音不能直接射到地面上,而如果可以把音箱移到靠近两边的墙壁时,更可利用墙壁的反射制做出更大的音量。 80-100Hz 这段频率是很重要的,它是我们肺部空间的共鸣点,也是低音鼓的共鸣频率,如果是因为不了解界面干扰而摆错了音箱放置的位置,实在是很不值得的。
(8)高、低音效果我们很难指定某一频率以上为高音或某频率以下为低音,我们常常说人的听觉是从20Hh-20KHz,但20kHz的频率是很少人能够听到的,通常只有20岁以下的青年人,他们的耳朵没有受到任何的损坏时才可以听得到。如果做听觉测验,最高的测听频率只是8 kHz。当声音传出去时,高频率是比低频率衰减快得多,如果用1kHz跟10kHz做比较时,当声音跑了100米后,10kHz的'频率比起IkHz的音量会衰减30-35dB的。(请参看图①)比起低频率,高频率声音是比较有方向性的。高频率的声音从单元跑了出来后,如果受到物体的阻挡,高音就不能再传过去,这个是跟低频率有很大的不同,因为高频率的波长是比较短,受到物体阻挡之后不会转弯,但低频率的波长是比较长,所以很多时候就算有物体在前面阻挡,低频率也可以转弯过去。例如有些专业音箱的设计是把一个高音号角放在它的低音单元前面,但对这个低音单元所发出来的低频率,它根本就看不到前面是有什么东西阻挡声音似的,所以低频率可以照样传过去。 从我们的听觉上来说,我们是需要听到高频率的声音来辨别各类不同的声音,但如果单纯是讲人的谈话声时,我们只需要听到4kHz及以下的频率,就能马上辨别是什么人在说话。例如电话的声音传送,高频只达到4kHz,所以有时候当一个很久都没有和你谈话的人,当他打电话给你时,只要说:“喂!”,你就马上便可以鉴别他是你很久都没有谈过话的朋友的声音。我们听高频也有方向性,即是我们能够辨别高频声音来源的方向。因为高频的声音传到我们两个耳朵时,已经有了很细微的时间差,所以它们来到耳朵的时候有不同的相位改变,我们就借着这改变了的相位可以鉴定?

(1)声学历史当森林中有一棵树倒塌下来时,发出一阵轰然大响声音,但是没有人在这个原始森林中,所以就听不到这声音。这算不算有声音发出来呢?声音是肯定发出来了,因为当树干及树枝接触地面时,它们都会产生某些声音,但是没有人听见,但这声音对于人类或其他动物所听到的是有所不同,所以这就是声学上所说的心理(Psychoacoustics)。
我在这里讲的声学原理,最主要是让一个调音员能够了解声学的各方面,而不是进行声学研究,或是硕士、博士的声学论文,所以我在这书内讲的声学理论都是实际可以给在现场操作音响的人用得上的。
1915年,有一个美国人名叫E. S. Pridham将一个当时的电话收听器套在一个播放唱片音响的号角上,而声音可以给一群在旧金山市庆祝圣诞的群众听时,电声学就诞生了。当第一次世界大战结束之后,在美国哈定总统(Harding)就职典礼上,美国贝尔公司把电话的动圈收听器连接在当时的唱片唱机的号角上,就能够把声音传给观看总统就职典礼的一大群群众,因此就产生了很多专业的音响研究及开发了扩声工程这门学问。音响研究人员不单纯是努力地把音响器材进行改进,也做了各类不同的实验来了解人类对听觉的反应。但最高级的音响研究人同都明白音响学是要整体的研究,要了解音响器材的每一个环节,及人类对听觉的生理反应,他们在过去多年内直至现在都作出了很大的贡献。早在1877年,英国的莱李爵士(Lord Raleigh)就已经做过声学的研究,他曾经说过:“所有不论直接或间接有关音响的问题,一定要用我们的耳朵来做决定,因为它是我们的听觉的器官,而耳朵的决定就应该算是最后决定,是不需要再接受上诉的。但这不是等于所有的音响研究都是单靠用耳朵来进行。当我们发现声音的根基是一个物理的现象时,我们探测这个音响境界就要转到另外一个领域范围,它就是物理学。重要的定率是可以从研究这方面而来,而我们的听觉感应也一定要接受这些定率。”我们可以从以上一段文字看到,就算在没有电声音响学产生的时候,老前辈科学家都认为这个是物理的领域。
着名科学家英国的卡尔文勋爵常常说:“当你度量你所述的事物,而能用数字来表达它,你对这事物已有些知识。但如果你不能用数字来表达它,那么你的知识仍然是简陋的和不完满的;对任何事物而言,这可能是知识的始源,但你的意念还未达到科学的境界。”卡尔文勋爵(1824—1907)是19世纪最出色的科学家之一,后世的科学家为了要纪念这位伟人,把绝对温度—273.16摄氏度命名为0度卡尔文度。
戴维斯夫妇(Don& Carolyn Davis)是《音响系统工程》(Sound System Engineering)这本书的作者。这书被称为音响圣经,几乎是每一个外国研究音响的人必读之物。我引述他书内这一段:“具有数学和物理学的知识,是实质上了解音响工程学的必要条件。对这两种科学认识越深,越能使你跨越从感觉上所得到的意念,而达到用科学来引证事实。着名音响家占士摩亚曾经说过:'在音响学中,任何在表面看来很明显的事情,通常都是错误的'。”
我在以上引述了几位科学家及音响学家的训言,主要是因为现在大部分做音响的人士,他们当然是对音响及音乐很有兴趣,但是以为光靠他们的听觉就可以鉴定什么是好或不好的音响,不明白这是一门专业的工程学问,是做不好音响的。远在19世纪的莱李爵士已经指出这是一个科学的境界,现代的音响工程学也像其它科学学术一样正在努力地发展,所以音响工程学是离不开数学及物理学的。
(2)现场音晌与录音室音晌的分别在这里所讲解的现场音响地操作,它与录音技术是有很多不同的地方,有很多人以为音响的最高境界就是录音技术,这是不全面的。在录音技术上,基本是没有碰到反馈的情况,因为在一个录音室内进行操作时,所有的外围因数都可以得到控制,但是在现场音响重播时,我们是不可以避免有很多现场音响的问题,所以现场音响和录音音响是两种不同的学问。现场音响跟录音室音响的要求是不同的,所以有很多器材也是不同的。例如在录音室内所用的调音台,它们的每路输入都有多个参数均衡,让录音师可以把每路输入的音源尽量做最精密地微调,务求达到最好的音源效果。 A mixer for live audio, usually in each of its inputs, the balance is relatively simple.因为很多时候,现场调音师根本就没有很多时间把每路的音源做很仔细地微调,而在现场音响的调音台每路的音量控制推杆,它们除了可以把音量做衰减外,也可以增益10—14 dB。 If you are working on a mixing studio for the studio, this putter does not need to be used for a lot of time, so the English name of this putter is fader, which means the attenuator. For high-power amplifiers used in live audio, they all have fans for cooling purposes, because live audio amplifiers often work at maximum power output, and there are many times when you are doing live sound outdoors, the surrounding temperature may be quite high. If you are in the studio, there will usually be air conditioning, the temperature will of course not be too high, and the amplifier in the recording studio is mainly used to push the monitor speakers. Of course, there is no need to output a large amount of power, so the amplifier only needs to use ordinary The heat sink can dissipate very little heat.如果功放装有风扇的话,风扇发出来的声音反而造成噪音,所以在录音室内的功放基本上是不需要风扇的。
现场音响所用的音箱,为着要把很大的声压传播绘在远距离的观众,所以它们是需要很高效率的,但在录音室内所用的监听音箱,是录音师用来监听声源或录音的最后结果,录音师是坐在距监听音箱很近的地方来监听,所以监听音箱是一种近音场的音箱,不需要高灵敏度,作用跟现场音响音箱是完全不同的。
(3)音频与波长的关系很多现场调音师都没有理会到音频与波长的关系,其实这是很重要的:音频及波长与声音的速度是有直接的关系。在海拔空气压力下,21摄氏温度时,声音速度为344m/s,而我接触国内的调音师,他们常用的声音速度是34Om/s,这个是在15摄氏度的温度时声音的速度,但大家最主要记得就是声音的速度会随着空气温度及空气压力而改变的,温度越低,空气里的分子密度就会增高,所以声音的速度就会下降,而如果在高海拔的地方做现场音响,因为空气压力减少,空气内的分子变得稀少,声音速度就会增加。音频及波长与声音的关系是:波长=声音速度/频率; λ=v/f,如果假定音速是344 m/s时,100Hz的音频的波长就是3.44 m,1000hz(即lkHz)的波长就是34.4 cm,而一个20kHz的音频波长为1.7cm。
(4)音箱的高、中、低频率例如我们现在有一个18时的纸盆扬声器单元,装置在一个用木材造的音箱内,而这音箱的面板面积是l平方米,即这面板的高度及宽度均是l米。我们怎样计算这音箱的高、中、低频率呢?首先我们要计算这音箱面板的对角长度,是2的方根=1.414m,任何频率的l/4波长是超过1.414m时,对这音箱来说它就是低频;如果一个频率的l/4波长是1.414m时,波长就是4×1.414m= 5.656m,这频率=344m/s÷5.656m=60.8/s=60.8Hz,所以任何音频低于60.8Hz时,对这音箱来说就是它的低频率。当60.8Hz或更低的频率从这音箱传播出来时,它们的扩散形象是球型的,等于如果我们把这音箱悬挂在一个房间中间时,这些频率的音量在音箱的前后左右及上下所发出来的声压都是差不多的,放出来的声音变成没有方向性。当某频率的l/4波长是小于音箱面板的对角长度,但这波长又大于扬声器的半径时,这段频率就是这音箱的中频率。例如我们现在是用一个18时单元,这单元的半径为9寸,就是22.86cm=0.2286m,这个音频为344m/s÷0.2286m=1505Hz,从60.8Hz-1505HZ频就是这音箱的中频率。中频率从这音箱所扩散出来的形状是半球形的,即如果我们把这段频率从刚才悬挂在房间中心的音箱放出来时,声音从音箱面板扩散出来的形状是半球形。在音箱后面是听不到这段频率的声音。1505Hz及更高的频率,对这音箱来说就是它的高频率。高频率从音箱扩散出来的声音形状是锥形的,频率越高,锥的形状越窄。通常如果频率超过开始高音频的4倍时,声音扩散出来的形状会慢慢变成一条直线而不扩散,如果不是坐在对正单元的位置,就听不到这些高频率。所以很多高频率单元如果是纸盆型的话,这纸盆的直径是很小的,把这音箱的高频下限尽量提高,希望能够使高频扩散的宽度增加。我们常常见到家庭音响音箱中的高音单元,通常会用l—2时的纸盆单元,或半球状的单元,理由就是这个原因。而专业现场音响的高音单元,因为要发出很大的高频声压,所以说一定是采用号角处理的。
(5)各类不同的音场当一个纸盆扬声器接受了从功放传过来的信号后,纸盆就会作出前后的摇动,当纸盆向前推进时,纸盆撞击到它前面的空气分子,在纸盆前面的空气就会增加压力,这些分子就会继续向前推进,碰撞它们前面的空气分子,造成轻微的高气压。当纸盆向后退时,纸盆前面的空气分子就会产生轻微的真空,然后这些分子会跟着纸盆的后退,造成这里的空气有轻微的压力减少。但我们不要忘记,空气是有弹力的,但在纸盆前面的空气是刚刚被纸盆的动作摇动,不能达到空气本身的弹力,这时我们便要看这频率的波长,声音是要直到离开纸盆的距离有2.5倍波长时,这些空气才发挥出造成声音的弹力。例如一个100Hz的频率,它的波长是3.44米,所以声音要离开纸盆2.5×3.44米=8.6米之外,才是真正的这个100Hz的声音。如果用10OHz来算,离开纸盆的距离还没达到8.6米就为lOOHz的近音场,而超过8.6米才是100Hz的远音场。为什么我们要了解远近音场呢?很多时候在一队乐队中的电贝司手,他往往都不了解近音场的效果,而在他的电贝司音箱上,有一个均衡旋钮就是写着贝司(Bass) ,正是这乐手的称号。电贝司手通常会站在离开电贝司音箱不远的地方做演奏,如果他站在近音场时,有时会觉得低音不足,就会把这Bass的均衡旋钮尽量调大,但听众在他们的位置就会听得到很强烈的低音,很多时候造成不好的效果。这些强烈的低音也会跑进歌手的话筒,如果调音师因为觉得歌手的声音不足够时,就会把歌手这一路的声音提高,但也同时把电贝司的低音量也提高了,调音就遇上了困难。电贝司的最低E弦是41Hz,但因为拾音器是放在弦的末段,所以41hz第一个谐音82Hz才是主要的电贝司低频率,82Hz的波长是4.2米(344m/s 除以82/s=4.195m),所以差不多要离开电贝司音箱10米左右才是这82Hz的远音场,而因为电贝司手不会站到离开他的音箱这么远的距离时,他听到的声音只是近音场,而不是听众所听得到的声音。所以我们当说到扬声器的远近音场时,最主要是注意到频率及它的波长,而不是单纯看离开音箱多远就是等于远或近音场,最主要就是记得我们当欣赏音乐时,是要在远音场的位置,而不是在近音场的位置。
(6)直接音场、反射音场、不直接音场当扬声器在一个房间内发出声音,听众可以听到直接从扬声器传过来的声音,这就是直接音场(indirectfield),但也可以听到从墙、天花板及地板所反射过来的声音,这就叫做反射音场(reverberant field)。听众听到越多的直接音场的声音,反射音场的声音就越小时,这声音就越好,因为直接音场的声音是可以控制的,但反射音场的声音是不能控制的,只会把直接育场发出来的声音加上喧染,把原本声音的清晰度底减低,所以坐得离音箱比较近的听众就会感觉到好一点的音响效果,而坐在后面的听众很可能是他们听到的反射音场声音比直接音场声音更大,音响效果便会比较差及清晰度降低。有时候一队乐队在台上演出时,因为他们没有监听音箱,而两旁的主音箱是放在靠近台口的位置,乐队及歌手所听到的声音完全没有从直接音场放过来的,他们站立的位置就叫做不直接音场,声音效果当然不会好,这也会影响到乐队的表演水平,令观众听到不太好的演出声音。
(7)界面干扰当我们选择放置音箱的位置时,很重要的一环是要注意到音箱所发出来的声音是会受到它旁边的界面影响而造成干扰。例如放在台口两旁的主音箱,它们的低音纸盆离开地面及旁边的墙壁如果是大约在1米的时候,一个4米波长的音频就会受到这两个界面的干扰。一个4米波长的频率是86Hz(344m/s ÷ 4m= 86Hz),当86HZ的声音从音箱放出来时,大的空气压力在1/4周内刚巧碰到地面及墙壁,再过l/4周就反射回到音箱的纸盆面前,但这个时候刚巧纸盆要后退,原来从地面及墙壁反射过来的大空气压力就会被纸盆后退的动作抵消很多,造成失去了很重要的低音。如果遇到这个情况,就应该把音箱向台后退0.5-1米,让音箱所发出来的声音不能直接射到地面上,而如果可以把音箱移到靠近两边的墙壁时,更可利用墙壁的反射制做出更大的音量。80-100Hz 这段频率是很重要的,它是我们肺部空间的共鸣点,也是低音鼓的共鸣频率,如果是因为不了解界面干扰而摆错了音箱放置的位置,实在是很不值得的。
(8)高、低音效果我们很难指定某一频率以上为高音或某频率以下为低音,我们常常说人的听觉是从20Hh-20KHz,但20kHz的频率是很少人能够听到的,通常只有20岁以下的青年人,他们的耳朵没有受到任何的损坏时才可以听得到。如果做听觉测验,最高的测听频率只是8 kHz。当声音传出去时,高频率是比低频率衰减快得多,如果用1kHz跟10kHz做比较时,当声音跑了100米后,10kHz的'频率比起IkHz的音量会衰减30-35dB的。(请参看图①)比起低频率,高频率声音是比较有方向性的。高频率的声音从单元跑了出来后,如果受到物体的阻挡,高音就不能再传过去,这个是跟低频率有很大的不同,因为高频率的波长是比较短,受到物体阻挡之后不会转弯,但低频率的波长是比较长,所以很多时候就算有物体在前面阻挡,低频率也可以转弯过去。例如有些专业音箱的设计是把一个高音号角放在它的低音单元前面,但对这个低音单元所发出来的低频率,它根本就看不到前面是有什么东西阻挡声音似的,所以低频率可以照样传过去。 从我们的听觉上来说,我们是需要听到高频率的声音来辨别各类不同的声音,但如果单纯是讲人的谈话声时,我们只需要听到4kHz及以下的频率,就能马上辨别是什么人在说话。例如电话的声音传送,高频只达到4kHz,所以有时候当一个很久都没有和你谈话的人,当他打电话给你时,只要说:“喂!”,你就马上便可以鉴别他是你很久都没有谈过话的朋友的声音。我们听高频也有方向性,即是我们能够辨别高频声音来源的方向。因为高频的声音传到我们两个耳朵时,已经有了很细微的时间差,所以它们来到耳朵的时候有不同的相位改变,我们就借着这改变了的相位可以鉴定?
