VO booth design

Hi y'all, I've spent a while foraging and scrounging for some ideas and methods on building a VO isolation booth and I've come up with a basic design. Considering the investment it would take I wanted to post it here so hopefully you good folks could help me catch any major design flaws.

Wrapping acoustic panels in thin plastic wrap?

Hello,



I am building some acoustic panels to hang on my wall and ceiling and as I have a dust allergy I want to make sure they are totally contained and can not leak dust through fabric. (I have not decided yet whether to build these from 2 inch 703 or 8lb density 2 inch rockwool panels.)



Sound Reflection

This doesn't apply to the studio so much in my case because I'm a field recordist but is there a list some where of the amount of sound reflection of surfaces (of all kinds) ? I recorded some heavy equipment today and later I realized that part of the reason the sound was as loud as it was is because the machines were surrounded on three sides by three store brick buildings.

Question about polycylindrical diffusion

Okay... so I've been researching poly-cylindrical diffusors...



Someone check me on this please:



From what I understand, diffusion itself does not lessen the energy of frequencies, but instead, actually creates more reflection(s)... but in doing so, it lessens the intensity of these frequencies.
