How does www.hitquarters.com compare?

What a bummer!

"You Know My Name (Look Up The Number), issued as the b-side of "Let It Be", is my favourite 'lesser known' Beatles song. Would have been a Number 1 for The Stones if they'd have done it!

I believe Lennon said the last line was put in simply because it rhymed!

It's actually Blackburn, which is about 30 miles outside Liverpool. John Lennon had read a newspaper article in the Daily Mail stating that Blackburn council had estimated that there were 4000 pot holes in the roads of that town.

Anybody tell me how this stuff compares to the Rockwool stuff we are discussing? It is called Phonewell board and is apparently made from cardboard and fine sand. 1200 x 800 x 15 mm Weight 18.0 Kg/m² Density 1200 Kg/m³ Airborne Sound Reduction Rw = 36dB (Ctr = -4) DIN EN ISO 717-1...

The whole point?

I've just realised that it's a total waste of time. Write song, record song, put song out. End of story.

Forget the wardrobe, I was just joking! I'm getting confused with this Rockwool stuff again:confused: My window is 60" x 39". If I made a plug for it (which if successful would be 75% of my problem solved, imo) wouldnt that plug consist of say, 2 sheets of mdf seperated by the batts of 100mm...

Erm, no. I live in Liverpool not Bevery Hills 90210!:( Would it be worth using Rockwool RWA45 or RW3 on the door and window instead of having the white elephant of a iso booth?

Ha ha, I meant single glazed window! Door is light & hollow. (Just realised I live in a hovel!) Might try the wardrobe, worked for The Cure and Genesis.

It's a spare room at my terrace home. Uncovered floorboards, pretty solid stud wall to the north & east, brick wall to south & west. Unglazed window at south. Ordinary door to east. The whole place is a weak link! I need the isolation purely for vocal work. All my other musical instrumentation...

I was thinking of wearing scuba diving gear when using the booth:)

Well I could, as the room i'm in is about 14ft x 14 ft, but I really don't want to go any bigger than the 4ft x 4ft 'Tardis' I am thinking of doing. Really, all I want is a place where I can go and do my vocals unhibited (and without partner/neighbours thinking I am having a fit:() Floor and...

I am looking at 120cm (approx 4ft) wide x 120cm (4ft) length x 240cm (8ft) high. I intend to build a frame consisting of 50mm x 50mm (2" x 2") battens/joists, screwing plywood boards to the outside of the frame and fixing the Rockwool RWA45 slabs to the inside. Front section to be hinged to act...

Thanks Jeff. I know there have been quite a few threads on this, but I really need somewhere I can record my vocals without disturbing the neighbours/my partner! It may well end up sounding terrible but that's better than not sounding at all! You see, apart from acoustic guitar, I play...

Hi guys. I am considering making a small soundproof vocal booth at my recording space. Can anyone tell me the different attributes/ disadvantages of; Rockwool RWA45 http://www.condell-ltd.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ProductID=583 Rockwool RW3...

I listen to The Beatles sometimes and even though I am one of their biggest ever fans, I still take my headphones off, shake my head and say "Fucking Hell!" Any musician who says they don't like The Beatles is a fake, in my opinion.

Ok guys & gals. I have had a lot of basic help on this forum (and I really do mean basic!). I have put this song up on myspace for your listening pleasure. I play it all myself and I am VERY limited in my musical and technical skills. Hope you like it. http://www.myspace.com/farawayjones

Strawberry Fields Forever? Oh, and Helter Skelter has both a great fade out AND a great ending.... " I Got Blisters On My Fingers!", Thunk!
