Just spitballing here, probably trying to justify spending money on an acousti-shield. basically a semi circular cylinder with a foam inner layer and a rigid outer layer (usually stainless steel or aluminum.) My music room is untreated and won't be until after the move to a new place.
are these actually useful? better for vocal than say, in front of a guitar combo/cab? I was thinking it might help a cardiod mic pick up less room sound. Google seems to return hits that talk about reducing sound coming from the cab via plexiglass shields, I want the opposite. It isn't the loudness of the amp I'm trying to suppress, more like the untreated room sound. Again, just to clarify, I'm not talking about sound from outside the room, just the sound of the guitar amp in the untreated room.
