live room
Echoey recording chamber
A live room is a space with hard, reflective surfaces that allow sound to reverberate rather than being absorbed.
Recording studios use live rooms to capture natural acoustics for drums, strings, or vocals that benefit from ambience: We tracked the drums in the live room to get that big sound.
The opposite is a dead room, where soft materials absorb reflections.
