MDW – 13 Mini Wood Diffuser

Your studio and listening room have walls that your sound continually bounces between. This creates all kinds of reflection issues and one that is particularly annoying is something you’ve probably heard in your room. It’s called flutter echo.

Flutter echo is the bouncing back and forth of energy between two parallel surfaces. This echo effect creates acoustic distortions in your music presentations. Flutter echo can mask your middle range frequencies where your vocals lie. It is the sound where you cannot pick out each vocal in the track and the harmonies all seem to blend together in an acoustic soup. It is this blurring and smearing of your precious middle range frequencies that flutter echo is so good at masking.

So no doubt you’re tired of not being able to hear all the sounds your equipment is producing. You may well be tired of moving your equipment around in your room and still not hearing much in the way of improvement? And maybe you’re fed up of paying a tonne of money for equipment that you know can produce the emotional connectivity to your music, because you have heard it before in other rooms, but which will not materialize in your room no matter what you try?

Thankfully flutter echo can be dealt with using the MDW – 13 Mini Wood Diffuser Panels. The MDW 13 is a wood diffuser panel that can take those back and forth reflections, that are moving between your wall surfaces, and break them up into much smaller reflections so that they do not interfere with the direct sound you want from your speakers. This is accomplished using a time tested and proven method of diffusion termed quadratic diffusion.

Quadratic diffusion is achieved using a series of wells or troughs that are of different depths. So when sound energy enters each well or trough it returns into the room, if you will, spread out in a fan like array. This spreading out of the reflected energy allows for the room effects of reflection to be minimized and the true direct energy from your speakers to shine through to your listening position.
