DBA Design Group

dBA Design Group recently visited Vincennes, IN, at the invitation of Myszak and Partners Architecture & Development, to perform acoustic testing at Lincoln High School as part of our broader scope of services, including Acoustics, Audio, Video, Lighting, and Rigging Design.

Using state-of-the-art audio technology, our field technicians captured detailed acoustic data in the school’s auditorium and performing arts facilities. This process utilized a dodecahedron/subwoofer loudspeaker system to provide an omnidirectional sound source, uniformly exciting the room for accurate measurements.

Audio data was captured at strategic receiver locations throughout the auditorium to evaluate the time-domain and frequency-domain characteristics. Ambient noise levels were carefully measured and documented for consideration in the final analysis.

All data will be processed and analyzed in advanced acoustic modeling software, then further evaluated by dBA’s experienced consultants to develop efficient, tailored design solutions for Lincoln High School's Auditorium and Performing Arts Classrooms.

For professional acoustical consultation like this, contact dBA Design Group.

dBA Design Group is grateful to once again partner with Alliance Architects on the evolution of Eddy Street Commons in South Bend, Indiana. Our team is delivering comprehensive acoustic testing, analysis, and modeling to ensure that the vibrant first-floor retail spaces and the residences above work together in harmony. By pairing real-world, on‑site acoustic measurements with advanced computer modeling, we’re designing sound control solutions that protect comfort, privacy, and performance for everyone who lives, works, and shops at Eddy Street Commons.

We love seeing new DBA projects coming to life. For the Wawasee Performing Arts Center, our scope includes design services for audio, video, lighting, acoustics, and rigging.

Happy to help the Fighting Irish!

Creating solutions for schools is one of our specialties. Here's another new DBA project coming to life!

It was an absolute pleasure to talk and connect with so many Architects, Designers, and Exhibitors at the 2025 AIA Kentucky/AIA Indiana Convention last week! As always, the AIA put on a great event with many learning opportunities.

The annual Indiana/Kentucky American Institute of Architects Convention and Trade Show will be held this Thursday and Friday in Lexington, KY. dBA Design Group looks forward to this opportunity to connect with our architect partners, both old and new, throughout the year!

This year's program features an exciting lineup of speakers, tours, and educational seminars, making it an excellent opportunity for everyone in attendance. If you're in the area, we invite you to visit the dBA Design Group exhibitor booth #34. We would love to say "hello" and chat with you!

Hilmar Cheese Company, Inc. has a new manufacturing site in Dodge City, Kansas, that produces cheese and whey ingredients for global distribution. Manufacturing noise was found to be disruptive for the administrative and engineering offices. dBA Design Group was chosen to conduct on-site acoustical testing to investigate the causes and conditions as well as develop solutions. This process has included acoustical measurements of the actual sound source and documentation of the sound transmission loss characteristics of the demising wall(s) and structure. The discovery of construction systems and conditions is always an element of focus when evaluating existing structures. We are currently analyzing the collective data and working towards a solution that will minimize disruptions to critical areas.

If you're experiencing noise issues in your workplace, please don't hesitate to contact dBA Design Group today. We can give you the right level of discovery and analysis needed to deliver the best solution options for your project.
