I'm making the PVC Moving Blanket "booth". Straight to the question: I'm wondering if it would it be beneficial to hang some 1" Rigid Fiberglass inside the PVC frame. And if so the whole 4ft. top half? Or thinking of weight issues, maybe just one 2'x4' piece on each wall nearest the mic? I'm...

I'm sound proofing using resilient channel. Should you do all resilient channel first and THEN all drywall? This would make sure that there is one uninterrupted pocket of space between all connecting walls. Is that what you want? The other case would be isolating each wall (if that even...

Thanks Jhbrandt! PM sent!

Thanks for posting this! I really appreciated the articles and answers to questions. I have had a few small web businesses online when I was 16-20 but never really did things right as a business should and now I am about to start pursuing some of them same goals and ambitions again the right...

Thanks JH Brandt! That helps alot actually. Please check my other more indepth posting of my plans (in the "can i get away with" glass thread) and let me know if that sounds better than keeping recessed lighting. I really appreciate your responses! :)

To be honest, I have some weak links that I can't really solve completely because it's just not an option with my partner... but I can try to help improve them preexisting weak links of course. Which I think my plans kind of do for the most part. I need to have it fairly quite for the living...

Thanks for your help and input! I had an idea tell me if this sounds like it would work. It does to me for some reason... What if I take down the existing johns mansville sound control batts and cut strips of MDF to fit inbetween the joists and caulk using non hardening caulk. Maybe double up...

Well the lights are already recessed in this space so I was going to try and keep them so I didn't have to mess with the wires. If I did keep them is it horrible to stuff batts up tight around them or will they catch on fire? I'm more concerned with loosing headspace since it's already tight. I...

Does anyone get Tempered glass or do you chance it without tempered? Is it soooo crucial to have tempered glass? Do most of you get laminated glass single pane? Anyone?

I read that MDF is dense and very good at isolation. I have a small live room/booth that I just framed out. 6'x9'x6'5". The studio is in the basement and I need to stop sound as much as possible from leaving the room more so on the ceiling. Height is a factor and the acoustic drop ceiling...

If I make my walls layer 2x4>Hushboard>resilient Channel>2 layers of 1/2" drywall. The live room/booth is small 6'x9'x6'5". If the inside glass is 2'x3' 1/4" and control room side is 2'x3' 3/8", do you think that will be thick enough as to not become the weaker link? One glass place told me...

Amazing! I love it! Where did you get and what did you use for ceiling tiles? What product did you use on the cement floor to make it look so purtaaay? Where do all them XLR mic inputs on the wallplates go? I was thinking what if you got a new preamp and wanted to use that instead of your...

Hmm... maybe I might get help if I say what I'm trying to do. I basically just have one small room for recording guitars, drums, vocalists. I need to be able to record 2-4 mics simutaneously (if even) and be able to have upto 4 headphones plugged in. The biggest part of my confusion comes from...

I'm interested in wall plates for sure. Can I buy one of the 3 gang plates?

I should also say, that if it's not plug and play I know very little about it. I have soldered in middle school and looked up how to do it properly online so I can get away with it but I need the simple 101 on what is really needed. I thought I could buy something already wired front and back...

I just need like 6 XLR's to go through one wall, do you guys put the plates on both sides of the wall and then just plug into them matching up both sides? Any info at all or links relating I'd appreciate. I'm in the progress of framing a small live room and I need to be able to get cords through...

I've always heard Digi gear, Neumann Mics, and Avalon preamps/compressors. If I want to make the absolutely most professional (what you hear on the radio) sound for rap/hip-hop/pop/capturing vocals what is the best gear to get. we will only be recording one vocalist at any give time. (what...

Yeah I'm looking at other forms of suspension too just because I'll probably start tuning this car more this summer too.

It's all good! Thanks for responding anyway!
