What is the Silliest Accessory You Have Ever Seen.

glupson and all..

Look here US Patent 8,735,702 and here US patent 9858903
These methods reduce and or remove a polarity of shear mostly thru  dissipation, some with geometry.. The reduction or removal of a polarity of shear lessens "interfering energy" a term my friend Debbie coined. Interference left unchecked can return to the source.. to then again become a part of the signal or the music. For instance vibrating strings can become polluted with energy that is reflected back from the floor thru the endpin..(an adjustable monopole stand) this reflected energy partially becomes 1 with the next note. Debbie can now analyze both mine and her devices when used with a cello and soon for violin.

I have been working with others in the audio field for years and we are now trying to unpack all of this "Interfering Energy" Because of my more recent work Debbie has come forward to decipher her own work and what we the group have been doing for many years. There is a whole lot to unpack with all of these observations and collected  information. The hardest thing is to be able to describe to others the why and how and to record and measure the spectrums so we can make further improvements over time. Tom

The Hallograph is a design method to dissipate energy more so than damp energy. 
 


 

theaudiotweak,

Those patents, at least in their implementation, do not seem to have anything to do with Hallograph.

It is very clear which way whatever wave would be transmitted in those patents, but Hallograph is, for the lack of better word, remote and waves from the wall material would have to find the coresponding area of the Hallograph they would match for proposed effect. If, maybe even better to say when, they hit the non-ideal (for their material) area of the Hallograph, the outcome could, in theory, be detrimental rather than desired.

If different wall materials interact with different Hallograph materials in some ideal situation proposed (that is why there are different types of wood, apparently), it would be necessary to aim waves accurately. How it is done is still mystery. Once we figure out how waves get to Hallograph in the first place, we can expand to what Hallograph does then.

And that is not even touching "activated" and my other questions about how long it stays that way and if it needs reactivation.

Speaking of patents, what is your guess why patent is pending for 17 years?

It all sounds very good, @theaudiotweak , but why use proper acoustic design and things we know work well, and somewhat universally and will substantially reduce or diffuse reflections when we can use an acoustic toy that looks cool with a far out story?    Again, I have no doubt it does "something" but if someone understands acoustics and how sound interacts with objects, even fancy ones, you can quickly get a feel for what it can do and over what frequencies. That makes the claims rather ludicrous. For the price, you could implement actual acoustics that will do something necessarily substantial.

So many naysayers on this thread....question is how many of them have actually heard what the Shakti Hallograph’s can do and have had them in their system? My bet...none of them..:0(

I don't have any problem with folk who have actual experience with this product and have formed a subsequent negative opinion, but to draw conclusions simply by looking at the product on the web...and then come on a forum to denigrate it....not cool~
