Hello,
I record audio tutorial at my home studio and recently I moved to a new place and did DIY acoustic treatment to reduce the room reflections.
BTW I have no connection with music industry I just record audio tutorial.
I've done two sample recordings (each approx. 1 min long):
one "without acoustic treatment" and
the other one with acoustic treatment.
I listened to both the recordings but couldn't find much difference, may be, because I have multimedia headset so would you please help me to find out which recording sounds better. DAW is Reaper and I attached the RAW recordings:
FYI: First 10 seconds are room tone then I started speaking...
Recording without acoustic treatment
Dropbox - Without_acoustic.mp3 - Simplify your life
Recording with acoustic treatment
Dropbox - 3rd-with-acoustic.mp3 - Simplify your life
Please Note: While doing this recording at 5:30am some neighbors woke up and made some noise but I finished it fast so I was slightly close to the mic than the earlier recording thats why it sounds little loud otherwise I did both the recording at the same place, sitting at the the position and with the same mic.
1. Is file "with acoustic treatment" sound somewhat better?
2. Is sound muffled?
UPDATE Jan 20
I made many changes in my DIY acoustic treatment after getting your feedback and I hope it will work better than earlier:

This is a raw file.
I request our fellow members [MENTION=196982]keith.rogers[/MENTION] [MENTION=89013]TalismanRich[/MENTION] [MENTION=39487]mjbphotos[/MENTION] kindly have a look at it
Thanks in advance!
