awesome studio Andrew, thanks for this video, have recently had some soundproofing done for an outbuilding i record in with help from this video and its made a big difference!

I actually understand a lot of this. GG being in a Recording Engineer program and having to take an acoustics class. We have our building to the point where the studio room and the concert auditorium are on separate blocks of concrete. Love the signs that say the entire class will get dropped if the temperature is messed with.

Check out RealTraps :o)

awesome man, good luck on finishing up everything! I'm building a new studio now myself (3rd build) and working on all acoustical treatments myself right now, building out our QRD Diffusors 1D's, 7 & 11 panels, going to be awesome. Look forward to seeing what you build.

how much did this project cost you andrew?

so, how much was this project?

@alwaysending Yeah you're right, but I meant the soundproofing used to block sound from coming in or going out of the room. The walls are already full of diffusors. No bass traps yet. All the equipment is moved very soon to see which spots are ideal. I'll upload a video of the building process soon. (This is not my youtube account, but I'll post a link here).

ahh that's where you'd be wrong tho, you do need soundproofing no matter where you're at... the soundproofing is including: diffusors, bass traps, etc. without these things, even in a "perfect" room (which I can guarantee you do not have) the sounds will not reverberate well, frequencies will bounce off of walls unevenly giving you odd resonant sounds, and you're going to have one hell of a time mixing in a room with no soundproofing.
