To do this properly, and generate a realistic reverberation field, would also involve frequency response behaviour or the walls, and most likely many more walls. To get realistic decays involving fiftieth-order or hundredth-order reflections, the number of paths to simulate (per sound source) would be completely out of the range of any known computing resource.
Robin, thankyou for a really, really interesting explanation. So at last - we find what Exascale computers will be used for. Modelling concert halls! But fiftieth order reflections? Are sounds really that strong that we could hear something at that level? Maybe, for all I know. The contents of this email are confidential and for the exclusive use of the intended recipient.
