The event, organised by the Electroacoustics Group of the Institute of Acoustics in collaboration with ABTT, AES, APRS and ISCE, has been the leading UK residential conference for audio professionals for 25 years.
Sam Wise, one of the organisers and Chairman of the IOA Electroacoustics Group, said: "Over the last two years Reproduced Sound has raised attendance to new levels and welcomed a wider audience from the audio world - including a lot of students and more of the people who make events and installations happen. This year we expect to excel ourselves even further."
As last year, the conference will start with a tutorial evening, open to the most penetrating questions from attendees to the said "experts". Last year this was held around some beers in the cave-like environment of the basement brick arches at the conference hotel. This year, with more space, more interactivity will be possible. Those who attend will be able to learn, teach and network with some of the best in the business.
The main conference papers are again expected to be varied. From the wildly new-edge world of interaction and games, to the more theoretical papers on transducer design, there is something for everyone.
Papers on the following topics are being submitted: Auralisation and sound art; Multi-channel sound perception, creation and coding; Room acoustics; Recording - audio and sound with images; Broadcast and download sound quality; Loudspeakers and microphones; Intelligibility, masking and spectral balance; New developments; Poster presentations.
