PSA on Room Acoustics
Here is a link some free articles and video's about Recording Studio Acoustics on the Production Expert website . Most of which applies to home studio's as well
I have not actually reviewed them all but have found Production Expert and its specific DAW related blogs, to be very valuable sources of info. https://www.pro-tools-expert.com/pro...eid=3af5b4ba3b

The picture of foam made me shake my head a bit but he does note in at least one of the articles that foam isn't a good solution. Like a lot of people, I wasted money and went that route at one time.

The 'towel absorbers' video was umm.. interesting... Can't imagine a lot of people having dozens of old towels available to make it viable - new towels are not cheap, and as described, the 2" thickness is limiting.. I have always read that the cover material on broadband traps should be porous enough to let the sound waves through (not reflect back) so a good way to judge that was if you could breathe through the material. I used burlap for my first batch of traps, cotton sheets for the second batch.

Porosity is not as important for bass, or even mid-frequency trapping. Some folks cover the rockwool with a thin plastic film, e.g., thinnest "dropcloth" you can buy, if they are worried about particles (I'm not). Windows actually can function as bass traps, though, unfortunately, they work both ways!
I built all my panels. It does require access to a miter or table saw, IMO, because cutting good, square joints on a lot of panels is very hard to do by hand. And access to rockwool or denser material locally, because the shipping for that stuff can add up.

Ya I have to admit I am not as impressed as I thought I mite be. I mean they are ok But I was interested in the ISO computer box and thought It was only OK. Usually Production Expert stuff it excellent
