Abstract
The proper regulation of volume or apparent loudness is essential to good reproduction of sound. This is particularly true when the sound forms a part of a sound picture, as the success of the latter in producing an illusion of reality is greatly affected by sound volume. If the recording has been well done, and if the theater apparatus is in good condition, the picture may still be poorly shown if the sound volume is improperly handled. This is clearly a matter of showmanship, and must be studied as such. The definition of suitable volume is simple. It is the volume at which the desired illusion is obtained. The illusion of reality which results from such a combination of sound and scene is such that little imagination is required to think of the scene as being real. The attainment of this result is the goal of all sound picture productions.
