Home Studio Sound treatment/Sound Proofing Question
"GarageGuitar" wrote in message
HI everyone.
My home studio is almost idiotically small (approx 7ft x
8ft x 7.5ft LxWxH), but provides a dedicated space for a
desk (with eqpt rack, nearfield monitors, computer
monitor, etc), a couple of mic stands and a stool to sit
on while I play mainly acoustic guitar and record vocals.
Currently the "sound treatment" consists of wall to wall
carpet (no underpad)
Padded carpet usually sounds a little bit better.
and ten 12"x 48" panels of 3/4"
styrofoam onto which I've glued panels of roughly 1-1/2"
thick convoluted foam mattress pad (hi- tech, eh?).
You ought to find your nearest professional insulation contractor and pick
up a 6-pack of Dow Corning 703 or its equivalent. It comes as 2' x 4' x 2"
blankets. Cut each one in half lengthwise and add it to the sandwich, above.
However, you might want to get a 12 pack, and disperse the other 7 pieces on
walls around your little room.
Use it in separated areas, don't butt the pieces together.
