I'm a drummer of 2 years and me and my father are going to build me a sound room in the backyard so i can play so far the dimensions are 12w x 14L x 8h walls .NOW.. my questions are 1) would you guys suggest double walls or single walls.. and 2) what kind of insulation do i need.. fiberglass? mineral wool.. and where can i purchase them...3) roughly if i wanted to deaden the sound as much as possible so neighbors wont call the cops how much money would you think is needed. The sound room is mainly for drumming and the background is spread out greatly enough so its about 100 ft to the neighbors houses..
 
I deally you would have two decoupled walls with mineral wool insulation inbetween. This is hardly space efficient though. i would go to your local home depot, and pick up some ROXUL brand safe n sound insulation for starters. As for keeping SPL down, you are gonna need mass, so maybe do double layers of sheetrock or something to add some extra mass.
