To separate audience and set areas for control purposes, studios may be zoned intoquartiles by multiple damper arrangements.. Attenuation should be provided to reduce noise ingress from outside and central plant.. Noise from air balancing dampers can be a particular problem and should be avoided ifpossible.. Air velocities inside the studio are critical regard to noise.. Particular problems can arise with boom microphones when located close to high levelsupply diffusers both due to noise from the diffuser and wind generated noise fromlocal excessive air movement.. False floors are normally provided in studios but not generally for air supply as they areusually filled with extensive cabling.. Equipment heat gains in technical areas can sometimes be treated by providing dedicatedsupply and/or extract ducts to equipment cabinets.Further readingAssembly halls and auditoria(a) BSRIA LB/90 Conference Centres and Lecture Theatres.(b) BSRIA TM2/90 Displacement Ventilation.(c) BSRIA LB18/93 Concert Halls and Theatres.(d) BSRIA LB30/93 Demand Controlled Ventilation.(e) BSRIA TN12/94.1 Carbon dioxide Controlled Mechanical Ventilation Systems, 1994.Television studios3.5.1 Guide to Acoustic practice, 2nd Edition, BBC Engineering Information Department,ISBN 0 563 36079 8.
