Hey guys, I posted my first thread here for tips on treating my room DIY style. Ill be using the room for Producing, Mixing & Mastering (Very seldomly recording). To start with. I was advised to put superchunks in the corners from floor to ceiling, behind my PC and monitors, to tame the bass...

Eggcrate. Is it good or not for treatment? Thinking of getting some too.

This article says it would be clever to put foam OVER the basstraps, to cover them and tame the high frequencies. What are your thoughts on that? check the photo caption in this link: Q. What's the right type of Rockwool?

So basically like the front wall traps, but flipped horizontal across the top of the wall/ceiling corner? What coating would be best? Doing it today will post photos later! :)

When you say corner traps in the back, do you mean just the corners? How would one make those?

With those chunks in the video he seems to have made a double frame?? I'm confused. Would it be better to have 2 frames over each other or just a single front frame? Nvm thats for the normal bass traps along the sides. How many do I need to have on the sides? Do I need bass traps or normal...

Please send me measurements and reply to my messages Broken H :guitar:

Thanks very much! hahah yea they are. I wanted to also ask, I thought I already did but either im losing it or It didnt go through. Ive been struggling to track down rockwool but have finally found a place that has some in Cape Town. They have ISover 135mm thickness made for celings and all...

Heres the dimensions for my room again: This weekend I plan to do corner bass traps first! So as you said above, do these go bam in the back corners behind my setup from floor to ceiling?

hahah yea the vid linked above looks perfect. Not gonna go down that info overload rabbit hole. Do you know if rockwool is the same as mineral wool? Many people I've phone dont seem to know.. lol

Mate you are really helpful and I really appreciate all your advice!! Could you perhaps split them into steps? EG Basstraps (Superchunks) - Items needed 1. wood (length x width x thickness) 2. glue gun 3. rockwool 4. cover afa material Process: 1. Make frames (size) 2. Cut (size + thickness)...

Also, how safe is rockwool and the fibres ?

Would this work? Rockwool Products | InsulationproductssaInsulpro And Id like to make it look quite pimp if im gonna be doing it myself! So Id like to get custom prints or colours on material. Which material is best for covering them? And which wood for the frames? :)

Thats great to know! I'm from South Africa. Where could I get these premade kits? They sound amazing! Im also going to have to ninja the corner as my right hand corner behind my pc is a built in floor to ceiling cupboard. Any tips on making something that can fit in there? Im thinking something...

So would you guys all recommend rockwool homemade panels over something like this? Im part of a mastering forum and they all say rockwool is way better and foam is quite useless. What are your thoughts?? 4x AFBT200 Pro Acoustic Foam Bass Traps Studio Sound Treatment: Amazon.co.uk: Musical...

Thanks for your response. With Bass Traps, where exactly in terms of height and quantity will they be needed? Are home made bass traps terrible? Would the Piano need to be moved or could I install the panel above or behind it? And can I install the opposing panel on the glass door?

Hey guys. I'm honored to be a part of this awesome forum. Been following it for a while and now finally made the time to register! So thanks. Im all self taught in production, music and mastering. I don't know much at all about acoustics. I would like to get some help from people who know their...
