Hi guys
I'm seeing if i can relatively cheaply prepare a room for recording with ordinary materials not some expensive foam. if this is just ridiculous don't hesitate to let me know but any ideas would be much apreaciated
my problems are as follows:
1 the room is quite small (approx 3x3m) and needs to record two instruments at the same time.
2 the room walls are made of gypsum (on stud walling - minimal absorbtion a bit like wood) and lime mortar (on stone - so no absorption at all).
3 the instruments are violin and double bass so however the room is softened needs to cope with both low and high frequencies.
because of the sise of the room i cant move loads of furniture or we won't be able to play comfortably.
i need to save every penny for equipment so any cuts that can maintain reasonable quality will improve mic's sound card etc...
i'm just looking for good materials and combinations of materials (eg thin plywood + soft foam + wool + foam + plywood or whatever!) anything to warm the room from it's sports hall state
thanks very much!
