It has the height, width, and depth to accomodate three of singers, or at least two people and a guitar. Cut a square hole in the side and glue in some plexiglass on the inside and outside walls and your window is done. Then spray on the aerosal-applied glue and put in the Auralex inside.

Take it from someone who's built his own vocal booth from wood and steel and took two weeks to build it.... this is the way to go, and it's a helluva lot easier to disassemble if needed. Building the door alone on my booth took 3 days of trial and error. This shed is on sale right now at Menards for $349. I'm sure it can be found for an even cheaper price than that on the internet. Estimated cost for all stuff needed to do this would probably be under $700, including the Auralex foam. If you bought one of those pre-packaged "Whisperbooths" in this size, it would probably cost anywhere from $2,500 to $4,000. The outside heght is 78 inches, and the inside height is 72 inches. With a little ingenuity, I'm sure you can figure a way to boost the interior height if needed.

Just an idea! :)
 
Hey Buck, not to rain on your parade, but what is the point of a booth if it doesn't isolate environmental noise? I know for a fact these have very little isolation qualities. Other than that, its a great idea for those who do NOT need true isolation. In fact, it "could" act as an outer leaf, if you build an interior leaf decoupled from it. Hmmmmmm, have to think about that one..
later gents, off to Autocad land and the net...... :D

Oh! BTW, here is something to keep it cool, warm, and breathable.... :p
