Hi!
I am not a pro and don't think it will ever come to that. This is all just for fun. So I don't want to spend much on soundproofing.
-Music type is urban/reggae.. local artists possibly. Mix tape style recordings.
-Room is a basement with smooth concrete floors. Half of the walls are concrete. Definitely has echo. Especially when playing speakers loud the bass echos.
-Room is a large open space. Large open basement (basement is pretty empty so I have all the space).
-I'd like the studio design where there is the mixing table, behind is a sofa, and in front is the recording booth or area. See below.
Obviously sound proofing the whole area is much more money than I can spend as I'm just a hobbyist. If you were just a hobbyist, and wanted to do something on the CHEAP to enable 'good enough' recording, what would you do. Also keeping in mind that you want the place to stay 'nice' looking if someone comes to record.
We have kids on the way so I don't know how long the basement will stay my studio that's why I don't want to do anything permanent down there.
Here's Brittney spears recording in probably a million dollar studio. Notice how open it is and inviting: YouTube - Britney Spears Womanizer in the studio exclusive
What would you guys recommend on my space, yet budget?
