contents We construct a new compact semi-explicit three-level in time fourth-order finite-difference scheme for numerical solving the general multidimensional acoustic wave equation, where both the speed of sound and density of a medium are variable. The scheme is three-point in each spatial direction, has the truncation order $\mathcal{O}(|h|^4+h_t^4)$ and is easily implementable. It seems to be the first compact scheme with such properties for the equation under consideration. It generalizes a semi-explicit compact scheme developed and studied recently in the much simpler case of the variable speed of sound only. Numerical experiments confirm the high precision of the scheme and its fourth error order not only in the mesh $C$ norm but in the mesh $C^1$ norm as well.
