ODEON 19.06: Advanced Room Acoustics Simulation Software

ODEON 19.06 is the final service patch for ODEON 19, a major version of the industry-standard room acoustics simulation software from Odeon A/S. Version 19 was published in November 2025, with service patch 19.06 released in March 2026 .

Key New Features in ODEON 19

3D Render & Visualization

• Improved 3D Render View: Default view in material list showing layer colors or material colors with real-time updates when materials change

• Visual Assets: Insert 2D objects (people, artwork, furniture) into rooms for visual reference; assignable to sound sources

• Shift-Click Surface Selection: Reveal surface numbers in inner view; outer view shows all surfaces the click passes through

• Layer Color Management: Modify layer colors directly in standalone 3D Render, reflected in material list

Movie Auralisation (Auditorium/Combined Editions)

• Walking Path Auralisation: Compute and export acoustic experience along predefined paths

• MP4 Video Export: Share walkthrough videos with anyone—no VR goggles needed

Acoustic Material Enhancements

• 1/3 Octave-Band Absorption: Accept and calculate absorption coefficients in 1/3 octave bands; final results still in full octave bands for standard compatibility

• Frequency-Dependent Scattering: User-defined scattering coefficients per surface across frequency range

• Material Information Window: Toggle window showing absorption, scattering coefficients, manufacturer logo, material photos, and measurement reports

• Spreadsheet Import: Expanded import supports 1/3 octave-band absorption, scattering coefficients, pictures, and links

Building Acoustics Module (Auditorium/Combined Editions)

• Sound Insulation Calculation: Compute partition wall properties separating two rooms from measurements in both spaces

• ISO 10140 Compliance: Based on ISO 10140-2 and ISO 10140-4 (2010)

• Reverberation Time Export: Derive and export 1/3 octave-band RT from measurements
