Improve my Studio/Jam space.
Greetings,
I've been slowly building my studio. I have an old house and have been busy renovating and this was the last room in the house. I needed something temporary to try to keep the noise down atleast a little bit as not to drive my wife crazy. I stripped the walls of their lovely paneling and ugly particalboard ceiling tile to a skeleton frame. I stuffed the 10" joist with r20 insulation and r12 between the studs in the walls, support by old bed sheets stapled to the joist/studs.
There are 2 windows, one located right behind the drums(picture 1) and one, while facing the drums, to the left(picture 4).
It does ok, keeps the noise from bouncing, but I'd like to finish my project.
The pictures provided is the space I have to work with. Dimensions are 15'x10'x7'(height) this room is in the basement(cement floor). The bottom picture is the ceiling that I did in the main room of my basement and I'd like to do the same in the studio if at all possible. It's simply 1"x6"s with a 1/2" gap.
What I'd like is a room that is nearly soundproof, however not ruining my acoustics for recording(drums mainly).
