Fiberglas insulation, not autobody fiberglas. 4" (100 mm) thick.

Another big reason that a bigger room is better is that the resonant frequencies are more closely spaced which make for a more even response. The "gaps" between the resonant frequencies are proportional to one over the volume of the room. Bigger room - smaller gaps - more even response.
(Routine mathematician's disclaimer. "Proportional to one over the volume" is not quite precise. There are plenty of places that give the math for resonant frequencies of a rectangular room on the web if you want the exact formula.) |

So now you know how it sounds in the corner of the room. Try it dead centre + 1" of the wall. Your left ear should sound a little different .
The 1" is because I heard somewhere you should avoid the exact centre due to bass problems. |

I decked out my tracking room with acoustic foam from foambymail.com and as a semi-professional I can tell you it is as dead as dead can be.
I've been in some crappily treated dead rooms and I can tell you FBM is the real deal. I'm not measuring frequency bands or anything, but my room is not muffled, its dead. So I am a very happy FBM customer.
Theres my 2 cents. |
