Again, there are several school of thoughts:
1/ With current PC computing powers, it is almost feasible to mitigate
room mode errors, ie standing waves, early boundary reflections. In
digital domain and before realtime, the software must be super robust,
playback equipments must be super linear to carry out the required
tasks or else a whole bunch of distortions (phase/amplitude) will creep
in and the original delicate and precious ambience information will be
lost.
2/ There are cheaper "trial and error" methods in placing furnitures
and absorbing panels in certain locations, using LEDE (Live End/Dead
End) techniques, one can achieve similar results for much less money.
