i have a room (~30ft / 12ft) , concrete floor, wooden walls, and a vaulted wooden ceiling (8ft at lowest point / 12ft at highest). I imagine it would be a great room to record in if it didn't have 12 shitty windows to leak sound, but i was also concerned about the drums in the corner while recording vocals. whenever i sing at a certain pitch, they can resonate pretty clearly.
so due to the thin windows and vibrating drum kit, i threw up a frame in the corner of the room and nailed up some new, thick carpet left over from last months remodel. the walls and ceiling are all carpet, the floor is still concrete however.
From the searches i've made from previous posts regarding booths, my understanding is that, unless its completely dead or professionally constructed, its almost useless.
my question is, with the thin windows and drums in the room, should i just work on making the booth a little more dead, or should i throw towels over the drum kit and just deal with the terrible windows?
