Hi,
The room I record vocals in is 9 x 11, 8 feet high, if I count the entrance with the door, that wall is 13 feet long.
I built 8 absorbtion panels, 3 inch thick, 4 feet by 2 with safe and sound rockwool or roxul depending on where you live, I notice a very significant improvement when it comes to the reverb and echos being reduced in my room but it still isnt satisfactory to me. Yet most sites with calculators recommended a minimum of 2 panels or 4 total. yet I am not yielding results that I like.
I built a temporary vocal booth in the room with the panels, mounted on furniture etc it is 4 ft by 4ft six feet high, but I find the sound is too dead or seems to have a boomy and slightly too dull sound for my liking. I dont know if the boomy sound is because the back wall of the booth is the room wall and lacks absorption, or if it is simply too small. Ideally, I would like to have a room that is as dead as the booth, but less boomy.
Hence my next question, how many more panels would I need to build to achieve the goal I mentioned? Note I am only going to record vocals and mix in the cans as I dont have monitors.
Thanks
