I've been recording vocals in a open room (Length-12 feet, Width-10 feet)and pretty much the vocals are pretty good. But I want to turn my long closet (length 12 feet, Width 4 feet) into a vocal booth and leave the open room as just my monitoring room...This room is a extra bedroom in my house which is strictly for recording. So there's nothing in the closet at all. I've already taken out the clothes rack. Anyway, I dont want to tear down no walls, or anything at that nature. Just want to add material(bass traps, foam, moving blankets, or whatever suggested) into the closet and make a good vocal booth. So if you guys have any ideas for me I will really appreciate it. Oh yeah the ceiling is pretty high also.
 
if you do end up doing this you'll find out that singing in a small dead space is not good for vocals, your probably better off doing it the way you've been doing it. But i think if you put a guitar amp in there that would be good.
 
Well hey if your set on it I'd probably put bass traps in the corners and maybe on the wall to ceiling corners and then fill the walls between bass traps with some simple 2" or 4" auralex sheets of foam.
 
yea, i done acouple of closets and to tell you the truth, i love open space better....but what i would do so u dont have to tear anything down, is get homasote 440 soundboard at homedepot, then put it uver the sheetrock, apply another layer of sheetrock and get some audimute sheets or some auralex sheets....

if your on a budget then some audimute sheet would do good but not as effective as with some barriers
