any acoustic use for foam peanuts?

[shackrock]

so I got like boxes and boxes and boxes of those foam peanuts...you know, for packaging and sending stuff in the mail, etc. ha.

any use for those acoustically? haha. Can I make a bag full of them, and pop it in the corner? or is that just stupid and pointless. hahaha.

Nope just useless - styrofoam is worthless for either acoustics or isolation - makes great packing material though............

Perhaps you could use it for that.............

use it to ship some old crap you sold on ebay!!
..and then buy what you want.

the 703 low mid/high,
Ethan Winer's designs are simple and work...and cheap.

i was just reading his article in Electronic Musician June 1995.
its really a helpful article with drawings how to make your own.
very simple to make. I did several of them.

I have heard of folks gluing a layer of them to a backing sheet to form a diffuser. Unfortunately diffusers are usualy not what the average home studio needs.

I don't see them diffusing anything. Nothing like wasting space that could be used for something that works.
