New Studio Accoustics

Hi,

I have recently built a new office/studio and have fully insulated the walls, followed by plasterboard and plaster skimming.
There is one double glazed UPVC window and the floor is covered in laminate.
I intend to use this for a bit of fun and to record vocals, my daughters playing flute and guitar.

Problem....using the room as an office I have noticed that phone calls seem to echo which I am assuming will have an impact on any recording that I do!

I have nothing over the window as yet, but was planning to install a blind of some sort.

Does anybody have any ideas about how I could easily and cheaply change the accoustics to reduce this echo?

Thanks

Andy

Start by reading any of the hundreds of threads we have here about rigid fiberglass

Or just read Ethan's site:

How big is your room? This will make a big difference on what you need to get and how much it will cost.
