Lemme know how it goes with the sound isolation between you and upstairs, one you know! Eg: does your family still complain or have to leave the house when you're playing (as in with a full band or at least a drum kit). I will be moving in the spring (if I can sell by then and find a new place, fingers crossed). I'm trying to determine the best (and most affordable) solution. Either build an out building in the backyard ($$$), build a room within a room ($$$ and low ceilings afterwards), or just do what you're doing (what I hope to do, but not sure if it'll cut the mustard).
Wow I must like brackets! ((((((((((((((((()))))))))))))))))!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
