soundproofing suggestions?

[so.so.young]

hey i have a project studio and i am curious how to acoustically treat it
i have 32 square feet of auralex and some random pieces of foam any suggestions

Auralex will do nothing for sound isolation. Auralex is used to acoustically treat a room. What will the room be used for? What auralex foam do you have?

As said before, the Auralex is only for treating acoustics (controlling reflections, etc).

Soundproofing is really something that has to be done when the room is built.

Well it isn't really much absorption, and it is really thin. I don't really see it doing a great deal, but try placing it like panel - space - panel - space and on the wall across from it have a panel opposite a space.

Instead you could build gobo traps from these panels, which would allow more flexability and would more effectively use up your panels. You need to also consider bass absorption.

Check out the kit instructions.

Remember, the auralex won't reduce the sound leaking from the room
