Hi. I'm in the process of converting my jam room into a studio room complete with studio quality mics, a DAW, and lots of soundproofing.
The walls and ceiling are just the typical painted white walls and ceilings you find in any house. I was thinking I'd line the walls and ceiling with 1 inch of Urethane Foam (used in walls and carpets) and then place 96 sq. ft. of Sonex Polyurethane Foam in strategic locations.
The key here is affordability. I've found Urethane Foam for 7 cents per sq. ft., and 96 sq. ft. packages of Sonex Foam for a little over $100.
Obviously there will be a TREMENDOUS difference from the original 4 walled hard-walled room, but will it be very good for recording? Combined with a DAW (using the soon-to-be-released Direct Pro Q32) and some good mics I am hoping to get semi-professional (if not PROFESSIONAL) sound. Comments? Advice?
Thanks,
Nir
