The “Sound Engineering” University Course, organized by the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia in co-operation with RCF has finally started.
On Monday, 7 May, at the RCF Audio Academy HQ in Reggio Emilia, the class of the University Course in Sound Engineering- First Edition has started with 15 students enrolled from Italy and abroad.
The course, lasting the whole month of May and granting students to earn some university credits, is organized by the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia in co-operation with RCF SpA.
The program is structured in several modules which will exhaustively encompass acoustics and its application in the Professional Audio Sector. The course, initially focusing on themes strictly linked to the fundamentals of indoor and outdoor acoustics, will handle further on the transducers and their design as well as the speaker systems meant for the design and construction of loudspeakers.
One specific module unit will analyze electronics applied to acoustics, focusing in particular on the practical application of all these concepts on the Audio Pro market. In fact, each class, will also include a practical training session directly in RCF and, in particular, as far as measurement and simulation systems and application of the state-of-the-art technologies for cutting-edge products and key components are concerned.
The over 60-year expertise and know-how of RCF in this sector have been made available to this University Course which consequently embodies the perfect union between Univerisity and Industry
SOUND ENGINEERING – UNIVERSITY COURSE
The course is organized by the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, in cooperation with RCF SpA, a leading international manufacturer of professional sound products and systems. The primary goal of the course is to provide engineers with a specific knowledge of the state-of-the-art technologies related to sound, transducers and speakers and its applications in the professional market.
The course is organized in four main modules starting from an overview of acoustics in open air and in closed environments followed by a module focused on transducers and speaker systems, including the main design and simulation methods.
The third module about electronics will cover the circuit analysis, filters, signal amplifiers and DSP use and the last part of the course will be focused on sound reinforcement systems, line arrays, system configuration and measurements.
The technical contents provided in this University course are completed by the direct experience of RCF laboratories, since 1949 involved in the design, manufacturing and market applications of professional products and systems for theatres, concerts, auditoriums, stadia, portable and fixed installations.
