 Acoustical Society of America - Acoustics and You
Musical acoustics deals with the way in which we hear and perceive musical sound, the instruments that produce it, and even the structure of melody and harmony.
Electroacoustics is a branch of engineering acoustics that deals with microphones, loudspeakers, and other transducers, as well as the recording and reproduction of sound.
Persons with training and experience in musical acoustics frequently work in the entertainment industry, in education, in recording and film studios, or in the musical instrument industry.

 Australian Acoustics FAQ
Detecting the presence of an unborn child or improving the quality of a musical instrument are further problems involving acoustics.
The Australian Acoustical Society has as its aim the promotion and advancement of the science and practice of acoustics in all its branches and the exchange of ideas between its members.
Before we explore the range covered by acoustics it is useful to ensure we understand how sound is produced.

 Acoustic Treatment and Design for Recording Studios and Listening Rooms
You may ask why you need acoustic treatment at all, since few people listening to your music will be in a room that is acoustically treated.
Proper acoustic treatment can transform a muddy sounding room, having poor midrange definition and erratic bass response, into one that sounds clear and tight, and is a pleasure to work and listen in.
Although many books about recording studio and listening room acoustics are available, most of the better ones are too technical for the average audio enthusiast to understand without effort.
