went to Lowes (like a Home Depot store) and told the guy there I wanted to make a booth out of pvc piping. He recommended 3/4 size. I told him 4 legs, and a square at the top and bottom. Total cost for 7ft high, by 3 1/2ft wide booth was about $25.00. I put it together in less than 5 minutes. Actually I trimmed so it was a little smaller

i read this post and the very next day went out and done the same exact thing. it did take under 10 minutes to assemble. i had these 3 king size comforters that i used to enclose the frame. i went to walmart and got some jumbo safety pens. i draped one comforter over the top then to another and penned it like and L, or right angle, then i penned the other on the opositte side the same way. i didn't feel any need to have any buttons or velcro to close it because the large comforters were big enough to over lap. i just let them hang and they close good enough on there own. to make it sweet, i hung a long black light from the pvc, it sets it off. the black illuminates the white paper with my raps so i can see, plus i don't have to worry about that light bulb getting it hot as hell in there or catching something on fire. the black light brings me that club energy. but if you want it to really look good, use white comforters, i have one on mine and it looks tight when the black light is on.
my vocals sound a lot better because i'm not getting any reflections from being in the closet. the closet was treated with blankets, which absorbed the high frequency, but the lows were still reflected. i took the mic out of the closet after seeing cross's set up. my room was too live so i was actually hearing the slightly but, annoying highend reflections. this vocal booth sounds the best out of the two hook ups and it only costs 30 bucks for the pipe and joints. be sure to get the right joints to assymble it. the booth freed my closet back up for my cloth, and now i don't have to worry about being cramped up.
all hail homeuser. BOW YOUR HEADS!!!! lol.....
