It provides a structured process to ensure that completed systems meet the intended design goals and client expectations. Importantly, RP-32 incorporates verification against the performance parameters defined in CEDIA RP-22: Immersive Audio System Design, allowing integrators to demonstrate whether a system achieves the targeted RP-22 performance level. This hands-on workshop introduces the recommended procedures of RP-32 and gives participants practical experience using a range of measurement tools and software. Attendees will learn how to gather reliable data, interpret results, and document system performance in a consistent and professional manner. The course is suitable for both residential and commercial applications, and is designed to support newer practitioners as well as experienced professionals who want to adopt a Recommended Practice-based approach to system verification. By the end of the workshop, participants will be able to: • Describe and apply the RP-32 methodology. • Perform objective, repeatable system measurements. • Verify performance against RP-22 parameters. • Document and communicate results clearly.Show MoreClick the title to see all detailsShow More
