Walters-Storyk Design Group | WSDG Architectural Acoustics I Audio Visual I Technology Integration Testimonial from Gabriel Hauser, Acoustic - Project Engineer at WSDG about MPP: “I work as an acoustician at WSDG in Basel, Switzerland. I am sitting here in Alex's brand new control room at Mix Post Pro which was designed and outfitted by us, in collaboration with Alex. WSDG was hired for the acoustical consultation and design. As a first step we took the dimensions of the existing room and created drawings and computer models for acoustical simulations. This helped us to define the correct acoustical measures for the treatment and optimization of the room. Special attention was then turned towards the layout and positioning of the mixing console, the engineer and the loudspeakers. Since the room is used as 7.1 mixing room, symmetry was very important. We chose to align the listening axis diagonally in the room, which gave us symmetrical conditions up to the rear part of the room where we installed a custom diffusor behind the engineers position. Further treatment is built into the walls; fiber based absorbers for mid-high frequencies, the area behind the front speakers is designed as a broadband absorber with hanging baffles, additional low frequency absorbers (Membrane as well as Helmholtz) are located below the windows. Visually prominent are the so called BAD Panels at the side walls (Binary Amplitude Diffusor) that combine two acoustical characteristics: Diffusion at high frequencies and absorption at low-mid frequencies.
While designing such a room it is very important not to absorb too much at some frequencies while having too long reverberation times (or even boominess) at other frequencies. Finding the correct balance between the different kinds of acoustical materials is fundamental. Having performed some testing with our acoustical measurement equipment I can confirm a very good performance of the room; especially the low frequencies are very controlled and even. Listening tests and measurements confirm a very even frequency response starting below 20Hz which, for a room of this dimensions is really good. I am very pleased with the result - I hope Alex likes it, too, and I wish him a lot of enjoyment and success with this new tool at his disposal!” WSDG Architectural Acoustics I Audio Visual I Technology Integration Dornacherstrasse 279 4053 Basel, Switzerland Phone: +41 (0) 61 903 13 40 Fax: +41 (0) 61 903 13 41 gabriel.hauser@wsdg.com www.wsdg.com

CLASSY LOCATION: Mix Post Pro is based directly on the shores of Lake Constance in Bregenz. It's the capital of Vorarlberg, the westernmost federal state of Austria. The Lake Constance, the third-largest freshwater lake in Central Europe, between Switzerland in the west and Germany in the northwest. The city is situated on a plateau falling in a series of terraces to the lake at the foot of Pfänder mountain. The cozy Mili swimming area, in earlier times, it used to be a military swimming pool in which young servicemen were trained in swimming. After the Mili had burnt down, the swimming area was made accessible to the public. Do not miss out on spending an extraordinary bathing day in the Mili...
Bregenz is located on the eastern shores of Lake Constance
The Mili swimming area is a U-shape area on lake dwellings, heading towards Lake Constance
