The Effects of Head Movement and Pinnae Distortion on Sound Localisation Abstract: Human’s ability to locate sounds on their midline can be effected by the distortion of the pinnae‚ as well as the restriction of head movement. The study investigated the effects of head moment and pinnae distortion on sound localisation through the presentation of a sound stimulus along three points of the participants midline‚ in front‚ above or behind the participants head. The study was carried out under four

Sounds are waves that we hear and are caused by vibrations that travel through mediums. Depending on the medium and temperature‚ the time it takes for sound waves to travel vary. The hypothesis states that if the temperature in the air increases‚ then the speed of sound will also increase because faster-moving particles transfer energy quickly. The data collected supports the hypothesis. Therefore‚ increased air temperature affects the speed of sound because the molecules move faster‚ which causes

MONITORS On-stage monitors are really important as they allow the musicians on stage to be able to hear themselves clearly. There are different types of on-stage monitors that suit different needs. Passive stage monitors have external amplifiers and are less costly to replace if they fail‚ as the power amp does not need to be replaced if only the monitor fails. Passive monitors are often preferred for venues with installed sound systems. Powered or active stage monitors have amplifiers built right
