I'm designing some gobo panels, each about 3' x 7', containing 3" of Roxul Safe-n-Sound. I will join them in pairs with hinges.

I'm wondering if I should fabric both sides, or put a hardboard backer on the back?

I was wondering if anyone could offer advice to treat this room to record spoken dialogue:

I'm hoping to record people at the table.

The room is roughly 23'x23' with a 98" ceiling.

The floor is fake wood laminate.

There is a popcorn ceiling.

I am having a back garden practice/recording cabin built. Structure will be (from outside to inside)

Concrete base with DPM
timber frame (total area 4x5m)
OSB with 18 mm shiplap cladding
4x2in wooden studs
100mm RW3
2 layers of 15mm acoustic plasterboard.

Roof
OSB covered with EPDM

I spent last summer working on a basement studio (installing a new ceiling of layers of think drywall on hat channel, making bass traps, and other treatment.) The space is now a quiet place to practice and record but it is too dead for my liking.

I've mentioned it here and there, but I finished my home studio. Even at a discount, fees were killing me, and I have the space, PT, Logic, monitors etc...

hello recording.org, I'm new here, having read the rules i hope i won't break them,’ve searched the forums for the questions and haven’t been able to find them.

this is sweet! They've got web based, android, and iOS. Really cool.

Hi all,

I'm building a drum studio in my garden. It is purpose built, and completely detached from any other building. I have a double stud construction already in position, formatted to make a two-leaf assembly. I will have outer, external layer, insulation, air-gap (1 inch), insulation, inner board, and it's the inner board I'm asking about.
