Sonores Acoustics specialises in acoustic engineering and design at the intersection of audio, art and architecture. We work on critical listening environments, music studios, broadcasting and performance spaces, spatial audio and artistic installations, as well as public and residential buildings — including museums, restaurants and listening bars — where acoustics are an essential part of the experience. Across every project, whether audio, sound system design or architectural acoustics, we bring an in-depth, analytical approach grounded in advanced computational methods. We work across Europe from our Antwerp office.
Our services include:
• Room acoustics – Room analysis, tailored designs for optimisation of sonic environments, and analysis based on relevant standards, including EBU Tech. 3276, ISO 3382, ISO 23591, NBN S01-400-1, NBN S01-400-2, and DIN 18041, among others.
• Noise and vibration control – Consulting services to minimize sound transmission and vibration interference, including sound transmission predictions using ISO 12354-based modeling and assessment according to national standards such as NBN S01-400-1, NBN S01-400-2, and DIN 4109, among others.
• Sound system design and Electro-acoustics – Design and optimisation of classic, custom, or immersive sound systems for studios, performance spaces, and dedicated listening rooms.
• Acoustic modeling, simulations, and auralisation – Advanced software modeling for accurate sound behavior prediction and immersive auralisation.
• Acoustic measurements – In-situ measurement of acoustic parameters, including reverberation time, sound insulation, noise levels, and sound system performance, to evaluate and optimise acoustic conditions.
• Numerical acoustics analysis – Finite Element (FEM) and Boundary Element (BEM) methods, amongst other wave-based computational techniques for precise acoustics and vibration assessment.
• Geometrical acoustics analysis – Enhancement of sound fields by geometrical optimisation of room layouts.
• Development of parametric and algorithmic design and optimisation tools – Custom tool development for innovative acoustic solutions.
• Research – Exploration of new techniques and technologies in the field of acoustics.
• Workshops and guest lectures – Educational opportunities for professionals and students to deepen their understanding of acoustics.
