CAPITOL STUDIOS ECHO CHAMBERS

Thirty feet underneath the Capitol Tower lies Capitol Studios’ eight Echo
Chambers. These chambers have been used to create some of the most memorable
recordings in modern history. Each chamber has a unique ‘personality’ as each
has a unique design, speaker selection, and microphone placement. The
trapezoidal chambers were built from reinforced concrete and designed with
sloping ceilings to avoid any parallel surfaces. Approximately 2000 cubic feet,
the 8 chambers can provide a maximum reverberation period of 5 seconds, with
average signal level the delay is approximately 3 to 3.5 seconds. The chambers
deliver a relatively smooth sound decay curve (approximately logarithmic with
time), and make a completely natural room tone.
