I watched hundreds of DIY home studio videos on RUclips and this one is exactly the most useful one. So sorry for your loss. R.I.P.
Thank you for this video! I too echo the sentiments of many and feel sorry for your loss. Shay looked like a great guy and good friend. Getting back to the video, I loved the commentary in between recapping each phase the warnings annotated in the video and the pictures over time showing how everything was fitted together. I am looking to build my home studio in the basement and don't know where to begin...
My condolences to you. Thanks to you and Shay for making these videos! I'm about to embark on my own studio build and these videos are very informative and clear and helpful. Thank you so much for making them :)
Sad about the loss. I think this is great but I do have a few concerns/questions/tips as a builder. 1) I am confused as to why you didn't just frame the floor 16" on center for adequate support instead of using metal that will stick up a 1/4" above 2x framing members by the time you calculate metal and screw. 2) The OSB ( not plywood) is not breaking on supports which over time will be an issue. 3) A vapor barrier is an absolute must when building a wood structure over concrete 4) a gap of 1/4" between the wall and plywood/OSB is also absolutely necessary to account for expansion and contraction of the wood or it WILL buckle. Once again, I think this is great. I am not trying to criticize but these are important points. BTW, great guitar skills
Hi Mark, thank you for your comment and for the professional remarks. I am not sure I understand all your questions (also because I am not well versed in all the technical construction terms in the US) but i'll try to answer to the best of my ability: 1. The metal bars are meant to support and prevent bending or breaking of the OSB boards. It's just an extra measure of protection, nothing more nothing less. 2. See 1. 3. If you mean a material that prevents steam and mould congestion I have done this using an anti-fungal paint on the walls before building the inner room. 4. Yes, this is either way the case and we have actually about 4-5 cm from the outside walls and even more on the ceiling. It's part of the room within a room concept that prevents sound from propagating though the walls as you'll see in part 2. Thanks again :)
This woman is a joke - who keeps posting the same nonsensical comment on videos about studio construction and sound proofing in general. Sound proofing curtains are one of the "worst ideas" if you are setting up a home studio.
My condolences for your loss and he had to be one cool guy. Anyone who can handle rockwool with his barehands is a special guy r.i.p GOOD GUY. Dope music.
Hello and שלום! First of all, I'm sorry for your loss. Shay seems like a really cool guy and the story is just tragic. It's nice that you could still finish the project after all. Secondly, the video is excellent, detailed, informative and fun. I'm looking forward to watch the next videos. I'm really happy that someone is pedantic and thorough both in building the construction AND in creating the how-to video. Keep up and good luck! And thanks for the videos!
I was very impressed with your video. So sad to hear of your friends passing . i am looking forward to the continuing episodes great job your friend would want you to move forward !!!! Thanks for all the great info, keep up the good work!!!
I am really interested in how you stuck the walls and ceiling together with the floor. Basically the rest of the build. can't wait to see the rest. good job buddy this video is an excellent example of how to build a home studio and really answered a lot of questions that I had. Really sorry to hear about your friend.
+dabbidefault thanks so much. I am working on the next episode which should be coming in the next few weeks and address those questions, as well as for the challenge we had with the inner door.
My condolations for your Friend:/ Thanks a lot! This serie of Video‘s is exaxctly waht i‘m looked for:) At the moment where he said „spanplatte“ was so funny because i speak german too. ^^
Saddened about your friend - my belated condolences to those who loved him. People are, in part, what they do. So, he's part of your studio ... and he lives on in there.
Just found your videos mate and I am truly sorry for your loss of a great friend, cant imagine how hard that was for you RIP. This has inspired me to build my own room within a room which will be used more for rehearsing than recording. However I will build to spec in case we decide to record anything. I am hoping you or any of your subscribers could give me some advice? This room will be built inside my large garage which has a a 200 mm thick concrete floor. The room will be 2.4 metres high 2,4 wide and 3.6 long. I was thinking of not having a floating floor, as I have access to large 20 mm thick rubber conveyor belting from the mine I work at. I was thinking of laying this straight onto the concrete and then building the room on top of that, with the frames glued to the rubber to seal it. Good or bad idea? My apologies if this seems like a stupid idea. I live in Perth Australia so because our summers feel like the sun is actually your neighbor, air conditioning is a must but I have already got that worked out from another couple of great videos I have seen on recording studios. Any advice would be really appreciated cheers mate
Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad this inspires you to do your own project. As for the floor idea, I don't know, to me it sounds risky to base the whole room foundation on glue. So I would not do it. Re AC yes it is done in pro studios using a long curvy venting tunnel, usually on the ceiling, to break as much sound as possible. Good luck! Would love to see the results.
In coming up with for a partition with a very high stc price in mind, decoupling ought to be of prime concern, even additional therefore than insulation, sound damping glues, or perhaps further mass. Decoupling is best with double stud/joists, tho' resilient channel or sound isolation clips w/ hat channel work to an adequate degree in several things.
It´s funny how you say "we did this and we did that" and all we see of you in the video was your foot!!!!! hahahahahaha!! Great work man!!! Congrats!! Marco from Uruguay
touching to hear of your loss buddy,, as with experience,,you just never know,, .. not sure why you strengthened floor joists ,, cus they are held together with boards and got no place to move anyhow. I am soon to be building music room and will be creating ramp outside of room for disabled access which in turn gets rid of the step also.. nice job..
Thank you. The metal bars are just an extra safety precaution. Since heavy gear like a studio desk or guitar amp can apply great pressure at certain points, the board might bend after some time. This way it is less likely to. Awesome that you considered disabled access!
respectfully... I see what you mean,, your absolutely right buddy,, I didn't account for the weight of any gear,food for thought when it comes to starting my project then..cheers
you have good ideas to build a home studio.I want to build a home studio for music and voiceover in my new home, in my old house I got too many complaints from neighbors of noise nuisance
Hi, I have a question about the first step that you realised. What kind of rubber is it? Because I saw that there is two differents ways to do that for exemple with litte pieces of plastic that you put under the wood piece... What is the difference and wich technique would you use? Thank you for your answer and great Job!!
Thanks. We used this product www.bauhaus.info/baufolien/bautenschutzmatte-/p/20696179 I don't know if you can find exactly that but really anything of this sort i.e hard rubber / neoprene mats should do the job. There was no plastic, just that. Simply cut it with a saw and place it on the floor.
When people build these rooms we need decible readings and in particular the lower frequencies that penetrat and carry compared to easily blocked higher ranges.A meter reading woukd be great help.Very sorry for the loss of your friend.
Would have been nice to know the reasoning for 3 layers of foam before the rockwool. Also, mentioning the purpose of resilient track added to the wood prior to adding the plywood to help absorb sound between the plywood and the floor frame. The video however was good and informative with a how to visual.
The rubber layers are meant to isolate the hard wood of the floor frame from the external floor. The metal bars are for preventing the plywood which is a rather flexible material from sinking in over time.
Hmm if you used 2x6 or 4x6 there was no need to strengthen the floor, introducing the metal changed the reverberation frequency of the floor to a higher frequency, meaning that now instead of only having the bass reverberating within the wood, you now have high frequency reverberating into the metal.
Is a floating floor necessary if the room is in the basement on concrete floor? Since concrete by itself is very dense, would that suffice to prevent most of the vibrations from transferring from the floor? I'm limited in ceiling height so elevating the floor will make the ceiling (which by itself will need to be doubled) too low. I'm thinking maybe only going to with a "floating podium" for the drumkit (as the bass drums vibrations is probably what's going to be the hardest to soundproof), so this way the room won't feel cramped. Might need to do a similar "podium" for the bass guitar amp as well. Would that work?
The floating floor is necessary. A room within a room must cover all surfaces of the outside room in order to prevent sound from travelling through the solid surfaces into the walls. A concrete floor while being a good isolator may still be conducting sound waves to the outside walls. Also in this design, the walls frame is built upon the floating floor as foundation. That said, you might want to test the level of isolation of the room before soundproofing and see if you're happy with the given concrete isolation as it is.
thx for the video. i would be interestet in the surrondings. did you buld it in a regular apartement with neigbours and everything? if yes in wich floor is it? do you have an idea about the average weight of the room in room constrction. can you record drums without to much polution to the outside world? thx
Yes, it is a completely normal room in an apartment building, on the 1st floor (one above ground). I don't know the exact weight but I estimate it no more than a heavy piece of furniture. In this room I don't have enough space to have drums. However people who want to have a drum room in their apartment can certainly do it based on similar principles, but with a larger room and thicker inner walls / larger gaps. It will probably not block it completely but it will reduce it significantly.
great video..sorry for your loss..just had a little query as to why u kept a 2-3cm margin when u took the measurement of the entire floor..and when u covered it with plywood did u still leave 2-3cm from the wall or covered the whole floor completely?..thanx again :)
Thank you. We kept margin so that the basic principle of a room within a room is preserved as much as possible, i.e with the least possible surface contact between the external walls and the internal frame. That holds true also for the plywood cover.
Sorry for your loss, mate. :( Quick question, in such a small room, wouldn't have been better to put MLV instead of foam? I mean, between the floor/wall and wood frames. You could have saved like 3cm, and I think the sound absorption (specially in low frequencies) would be better, don't you think? By the way, nice videos, and congrats for your home studio! :)
Hey! Really great video thanks. Taking on this project in a week. One question - did you bolt the floating floor into the concrete underneath? Like through the wood and rubber into the concrete. Thanks!
My room already has some treatment within the drywall.I was going to add another layer of 1/2" drywall with green glue or 1'2" plywood with green glue.Which one would be better?
It's hard to tell which material is better.. depends on many factors and also on your own taste of reverbation. I wouldn't recommend relying on glue because it's not as strong as screws for holding heavy parts together.
Nice video. Just wondering where you got the neopreen... i've been searching on the internet and can't really find the right product. I wonder if it would work with just small straps of neopreen or rubber underneath each piece of wood you lay down to set the base for the floor. Cheers
I'm sure you will find neoprene/rubber isolation layers at your local home improvement store. Those things are quite common and used to isolate many things, even roofs and gardens. We got ours at Bauhaus (a German chain).
Shay still lives on to help others in 2016! :)
Thanks a lot for the video!

I watched hundreds of DIY home studio videos on RUclips and this one is exactly the most useful one.
So sorry for your loss. R.I.P.
condolences for the team but this is truly inspiration after watching this and how not to let someone's idea go away very nice guys
That's so sweet that you paid tribute to your late friend. RIP Shay.
Video was nice. Really like the music too. Very sorry for your loss.
Sorry for your loss. It was really nice of you to remember him during this video.
Homerecording enthusiasts and studio people never die... the just bring their projects in another dimension. Thank you for this video!
Bro you're the only person on all of RUclips that has a legit studio tutorial thanks soooo much
Thank you for this video! I too echo the sentiments of many and feel sorry for your loss. Shay looked like a great guy and good friend. Getting back to the video, I loved the commentary in between recapping each phase the warnings annotated in the video and the pictures over time showing how everything was fitted together. I am looking to build my home studio in the basement and don't know where to begin...
Thank you for your kind words. You begin right here with this video series. :)
I just discovered your channel and I've been deeply touched by the story of your loss. It's very touching to see the tribute through this video.
Sorry for your loss man ! All the love I can get to you from the World Rock Family !!! Cheers to his memory !
so sorry to hear about your friend :(
and thanks very much for putting this video up, learned alot
My condolences to you. Thanks to you and Shay for making these videos! I'm about to embark on my own studio build and these videos are very informative and clear and helpful. Thank you so much for making them :)
Great video, and sorry for your the loss of your friend. Thanks for sharing tips and tricks!
It's so sad that your good friend passed away... Good job and keep rock and rolling bro.
Sorry for you loss Yuval. Hope the studio brings you many great memories of Shay
Very informative and straightforward. Will be watching the rest.
RIP Shay, sorry for your loss.
I stated getting itchy watching you put in that floor insulation. Awesome Video!
A good friend got a glimpse of Woody Hyezmar’s Woodworking Bible. Downloading it this week to see what all the hype is about.
Sad about the loss.
I think this is great but I do have a few concerns/questions/tips as a builder.
1) I am confused as to why you didn't just frame the floor 16" on center for adequate support instead of using metal that will stick up a 1/4" above 2x framing members by the time you calculate metal and screw.
2) The OSB ( not plywood) is not breaking on supports which over time will be an issue.
3) A vapor barrier is an absolute must when building a wood structure over concrete
4) a gap of 1/4" between the wall and plywood/OSB is also absolutely necessary to account for expansion and contraction of the wood or it WILL buckle.
Once again, I think this is great. I am not trying to criticize but these are important points.
BTW, great guitar skills
Hi Mark, thank you for your comment and for the professional remarks. I am not sure I understand all your questions (also because I am not well versed in all the technical construction terms in the US) but i'll try to answer to the best of my ability:

Really enjoyed the audio sample , do you have a video of the full song ?
So sorry for your loss.
Looks amazing!
thanks friend. appreciate the efforts and very helpful tips. RIP
sorry for your friend. great video. keep your head up!
Sad to hear that about your friend brother the studio looks and sounds great!
nice video guys!
Good work..Plz upload another episode..hurry
Great video!
touching to hear of your loss buddy,, as with experience,,you just never know,, ..
not sure why you strengthened floor joists ,, cus they are held together with boards and got no place to move anyhow.
I am soon to be building music room and will be creating ramp outside of room for disabled access which in turn gets rid of the step also..
nice job..
Thank you. The metal bars are just an extra safety precaution. Since heavy gear like a studio desk or guitar amp can apply great pressure at certain points, the board might bend after some time. This way it is less likely to.
Awesome that you considered disabled access!
respectfully... I see what you mean,, your absolutely right buddy,, I didn't account for the weight of any gear,food for thought when it comes to starting my project then..cheers
I hope to getting round to watching your other vids at a later date..
Thank you for the video friend :)
Props for an actual studio build.
Lovely...
you have good ideas to build a home studio.I want to build a home studio for music and voiceover in my new home, in my old house I got too many complaints from neighbors of noise nuisance

Yes, it is a completely normal room in an apartment building, on the 1st floor (one above ground). I don't know the exact weight but I estimate it no more than a heavy piece of furniture.
In this room I don't have enough space to have drums. However people who want to have a drum room in their apartment can certainly do it based on similar principles, but with a larger room and thicker inner walls / larger gaps.

Yuval Ron thx for the fast reply
Sorry for your loss (belatedly). Really sad watching the bit I came for (floor) knowing he soon passed away.
great video..sorry for your loss..just had a little query as to why u kept a 2-3cm margin when u took the measurement of the entire floor..and when u covered it with plywood did u still leave 2-3cm from the wall or covered the whole floor completely?..thanx again :)
Thank you. We kept margin so that the basic principle of a room within a room is preserved as much as possible, i.e with the least possible surface contact between the external walls and the internal frame. That holds true also for the plywood cover.
Yuval Ron thanx for the quick response :) Great help !!
I wonder if u have no neighbors above can you just make a thin wood roof or similar wont worsen the overall soundproof?
Sorry for your loss, mate. :(
Quick question, in such a small room, wouldn't have been better to put MLV instead of foam? I mean, between the floor/wall and wood frames. You could have saved like 3cm, and I think the sound absorption (specially in low frequencies) would be better, don't you think? By the way, nice videos, and congrats for your home studio! :)

Superb build👌.but the sad news Just let me down😢.! By the way what type of wood is used for the framework ?
partha das Thanks. All woods are a combination of spruce and fir.
Yuval Ron thanks
Hey! Really great video thanks. Taking on this project in a week. One question - did you bolt the floating floor into the concrete underneath? Like through the wood and rubber into the concrete. Thanks!
Hi, thank you! No, the floating floor was not bolted to the floor underneath.
sorry to hear about your friend :/ good video man
My room already has some treatment within the drywall.I was going to add another layer of 1/2" drywall with green glue or 1'2" plywood with green glue.Which one would be better?
It's hard to tell which material is better.. depends on many factors and also on your own taste of reverbation. I wouldn't recommend relying on glue because it's not as strong as screws for holding heavy parts together.
Hi. Depending on what you want to achieve.more soundproofing effect or correction of acoustic inside the room?
Hey man! Nice video. in my room the door turns to the inside, do you have any tips?
Thanks. Yeah, it was the same in my case. We had to switch the door and place it on the other side so that it opens to the outside.
God Bless! 😔
Sorry for your loss
Nice video. Just wondering where you got the neopreen... i've been searching on the internet and can't really find the right product. I wonder if it would work with just small straps of neopreen or rubber underneath each piece of wood you lay down to set the base for the floor.
Cheers
I'm sure you will find neoprene/rubber isolation layers at your local home improvement store. Those things are quite common and used to isolate many things, even roofs and gardens. We got ours at Bauhaus (a German chain).
