Selected Milestones in the History of Sound Reinforcement
Středa, Jan ; HADRABA, Jakub (advisor) ; PINKAS, Martin (referee)
This master's essay shows a detailed view on the development of the use of sound engineering for live performance. It presents the evolution of technological advancements from the first audio recordings, through the emergence of the speakers, and to the first historical reinforcement of the spoken word. Following is the chronology of how live sound engineering has changed over time, and how the specific professions such as FOH sound engineer, monitor sound engineer, and system engineer have evolved. It also discusses how the production and rental companies formed. It explores in detail "The Wall Of Sound" system, which was very unique at the time. The conclusion of the historical overview, that this paper discusses, ends with the emergence of the digital era. Modern reinforcement methods used today are demonstrated by the realization of the sound system of the London stadium during the 2012 summer Olympic games.
Time Alignment of PA System
Středa, Jan ; PINKAS, Martin (advisor) ; FILA, Vladimír (referee)
This thesis deals with the time-unification of sound emitted by sound system (PA system) and the direct sound of musical instruments or the human voice reaching to the audience from the stage. They demonstrate practical ways of measuring delay and time alignment settings. The paper explains the basic division of PA systems and the distribution of types sounding. The following is a principle of sound localization and temporal threshold of human hearing. One chapter includes the results of the practical test investigating the subjective qualities time alignment signal and not aligned one and tolerance for the accuracy of the delay.
