Haha, but seriously Rick FitZ is a great and knowledgeable guy. I wouldn't piss him off.

Nah, for the plug just one sheet would do, the 2nd leaf would be the window. You could include some absorptive material on the window side.(Don't worry about it)

I don't mean a big one. I meant is it free-standing or built in? No Rockwool doesn't provide any isolation unless used between mass. You could make a plug for your window or add another pane, and either buy a heavy solid-core door (like a fire door) or attach mass (mdf, plyboard, ...) to your...

Did you mean a walk in wardrobe?

Well I don't believe you have enough room for a booth, 4'x4' is too small, but you could sort the weak links of the room. You say you have a brick wall and stud walls, with an UNglazed window and "normal" door. Well I'd recommend you glaze the window first :laughings: and what do you mean by...

Well what is the existing construction like, what is it made of, why do you think you need isolation, how much isolation do you need, what may be possible weak links (doors, windows, ...), etc?

Great! I tried to protest your ban through a self-imposed ban, which lasted a good while, but I cracked one night when I was drunk and it went downhill from there. :drunk: That's good man. Can't go offending every newbie. :p

Could you build it any bigger? What about the floor and ceiling?

Rockwool RWA45 has a density of 45kg/m3 and Rockwool RW3 a density of 60kg/m3. In theory RW3 should perform slightly better but either should be fine for acoustic applications.

How did you make your booth?

As no-one else bothered, I'll explain; It isn't dense enough. It might be fine for mid/high frequencies, but not for bass. However, a few of these, left rolled up, and placed in the room corners will work well for really low budget bass traps. A booth can work ok, depending on its size. What...

Nice to see you back FitZ :D

No you don't. Granite is much nicer acoustically too. Carpet only absorbs high frequencies. You are better off with a reflective floor and absorptive ceiling, with the ceiling absorption being much thicker than carpet (at the very least 2").

Granite tiles will be much nicer than carpet anyway.

Yes, but it's not a rule.

No, I agree with buying a desk, but you don't need a "mixer", "mixing desk", "mixing console", or whatever you want to call it.

exactly :D

... or spend it on proper acoustic treatment. Pro Tools is fine if you have the money for an HD setup, but the LE version is limited. I also hate the protools/digidesign ethic, where you can't use any other hardware but theirs. I rather go with something like Cockos Reaper. Why bother with a...

Look good to me. Can probably make your own cheaper, but these save the hassle and seem reasonably priced. "Also check out the open-back option on our 4" panels if you're interested in low-frequency corner traps." That's a good point. If you plan to use these as corner bass traps, make sure you...

What is the roof like?
