Now it's been ages since I was on here but I remember it being helpful so I thought I'd make my first post.
I am in the process of brainstorming a way to build a modular vocal booth.
I initially wanted to use rigid insulation to make a "wall" (so that I don't have to go through the process of framing) and then wrap that in MLV and cork tacked on with some green glue then sandwich it with more green glue with drywall.
But I quickly realized that I don't know if I can trust rigid insulation even though the thickest one I can find is 3.3". (unless I'm mistaken. I'm no expert in these type of things)
So then my next thought process is.. Okay let's take it the old traditional way.
Get a couple of slats, make a frame, put some rockwool in (I already have some) to make a "wall" first and then wrap it in MLV and cork and then sandwich it with drywall.
But I was wondering if there are any other alternative to wood. Yes it has to be strong, easy to screw into but lighter than wood?
I already know that the combination of MLV, cork, and rockwool is going to make it heavy so I want to try and use light materials for every other component.
Might be a dumb question but please bear with me.
