Geometrical simulations in Acoustics
This blog delves into how Treble’s geometrical solvers operate, their technical strengths, and why they’re indispensable for acousticians and design professionals seeking efficient, scalable sound solutions.
Watch our webinar showcasing our auralization update
Re-watch our two-part webinar from Treble, and featuring Jonah Sacks and Khaleela Zaman from Acentech.
In the first half, Treble unveils the latest updates to the Treble Web Application, with a spotlight on the new auralization feature. For the first time, you can easily display rendered graphics and Lidar scans directly in the auralizer as a visual overlay on your acoustic models, creating a far more dynamic and immersive way to present simulations. We also share other usability improvements and quality-of-life updates.
In the second half, Acentech present two real-world applications of Treble: the Warner Theatre Rehearsal Room and Mansfield Elementary School Cafeteria. These case studies show how Treble is applied in diverse acoustic design challenges.

Acentech: Two building design projects using Treble
Jonah Sacks - Director, Architectural Acoustics | Principal and Khaleela Zaman - Senior Consultant
We’re excited to feature Jonah Sacks and Khaleela Zaman from Acentech whoshowcase two very different projects:
- The Warner Theatre in Erie, Pennsylvania received a major building upgrade, including a new orchestra rehearsal hall with an unusual ceiling absorption system. A study of the completed hall helped us to understand the acoustical performance of the ceiling and its role in the hall’s acoustics.
- Mansfield Elementary School in Connecticut was completed with a grand dining hall that was excessively reverberant and loud during dining use. We presented a listening study to the school leadership of recommended improvements, which helped them to make clear decisions and move ahead with a renovation.
