Abstract
The sound effects and voices that are heard in motion
pictures are often replacements or additions of sounds
recorded in a Foley Studio. In this type of studio, named
after Jack Foley, the pioneer in movie sound effects
recording, many objects like wooden floors and doors are
present to record sounds from (see figure 1). These
recordings need to sound as they are heard in the real world
or even as an exaggeration of that world. Therefore it should
be possible to create a lot of different acoustical conditions
in a Foley Studio. The requirements are not very
straightforward though, because there is few literature about
Foley Studio design, also because there are few Foley
Studios. To determine the proper room acoustical
requirements, the variability of acoustical properties of two
existing Foley Studios have been compared: one typical
studio and one with a good reputation.
