So the sound is blocked while the musician is still clearly visible, most of the acoustic screens in our range are made of acrylic glass.
Portable Acrylic Panels
During gigs, the sound of one acoustic instrument is often captured by a microphone set up for another acoustic instrument. This undesirable phenomenon is called crosstalk - something you can significantly limit by setting up acrylic panels. These screens don't get in the way of stage lighting either.
Modular Set-Ups
Whether you need a drum kit shield or a full kit to fence in a woodwind section, you'll find the required acrylic panels right here. Most models are modular too, meaning they can be freely expanded by securing another panel on either side with the help of a flexible plastic hinge.
Upgrading Acoustic Screens With Absorbers
Acrylic glass panels are an excellent solution when it comes to reining in mid and high frequencies without sacrificing visibility. Place a few absorber panels behind the musicians and you've got everything you need to prevent in-booth reflections since, unlike acrylic panels, foam absorber panels don't just block sound but offer a high degree of sonic absorption and are more effective against low-mid frequencies.
Frequently Asked Questions About Acoustic Screens
How effective are acrylic panels?
Acrylic panels are very effective when it comes to blocking middle and high frequencies, and can give sound technicians more control over things like cymbals and guitar amplifiers.
How high should the sound screens be?
Acoustic screens should be at least as high as the instrument you want to isolate. If part of the audience is seated on a balcony, it's recommended to build a roof as well.
How do acrylic acoustic panels work?
Acrylic panels are extremely sonically reflective. By building a drum kit booth or amp shield, you're essentially reducing the risk of crosstalk by cutting down mid and high frequencies - perfect for stage performances and multi-instrument recording sessions.
