Indicators for Impulsive Sounds

The Indicators for impulsive sounds computation profile allows you to assess the loudness of impulse sounds (typically shorter than 500 ms). This loudness model was developed in a joint project by GENESIS and the Mechanics and Acoustics Laboratory (LMA) of the French National Research Centre (CNRS). This work was published and presented at the eighth French Acoustics Congress (CFA) in Tours, France in April 2006. The result is given both in sone and in phon.

The Impulsive Loudness LMIS indicator (in sone and phon) is based on the Loudness Model for Impulse Sounds (LMIS), resulting from Boullet's research (2006).
