    Sound guy here and here are some tips:
    1. Use more moving blankets the acoustic efficiency is better for critical frequencies and they are super cheap and cover more sqft $26 for a 6’x6.5’ per super thick blanket, do the math.
    2. Diffusion is key, don’t just absorb the sound, break up and interrupt the sound.
    3. Use insulation and make your own if you want better quality and better on camera aesthetics.
    For mixing....
    1. Bass kills so roll off at ~40 hz
    2. Get your speakers off the wall especially if they are rear ported.
    3. Mix at low volumes, I prefer a 6 or 7” woofer and a sub to use at critical stages of the mix or sound design.
    4. Use thick rugs on the floor
    5. Reference on pro monitors and end user speakers as well.
    6. Mix closely with cardioid or super cardioid mics.

    Another way to hang foam without adhesive is with very thin finishing nails. These allow you to "pop" the foam on and off with out damaging it and only leaves small pin-sized holes behind in the wall. Much easier to patch later if needed vs trying to scrape off glue or leftover adhesive.

    Great video as always. Always pumped to see people giving love to audio. These collaborations have been great.
    If I had a suggestion it would be that speaker placement is just as important as everything else. I know you brought up that space was an issue, but giving those speakers even a little more room to breath would make a huge difference. Especially those HS8s. They are quite large to have that close to the wall, especially being rear ported.
    Another tip is that the triangle should actually meet directly behind your head not into it so the audio passes your ears.

    Check this out: I also bought myself a $100 Gazebo / Pergola (200cm x 200cm) and placed it in my basement on a noise absorbing rug. I left the outside "walls" off and placed moving blankets on all five sides. Got myself a 10M led strip for the inside and some bass traps in the corners and foam on the inside off the blankets. Super easy set-up for recording with my D18 and singing at the same time straight into my iPhone using the Roland Go Pro mix. Call me cheap but I just love my little "tent" inside my basement. Nice and cozy. Love your channel man!!

  • @princemitchell934
    @princemitchell934 2 года назад +6

    Quick question, how often should I take the foam down and ring it out? If all those frequencies are being trapped in the foam, shouldn't I at least rinse and ring the foam out to remove all those trapped frequencies from time to time? Also, if I relocate my studio to another State and the foam has trapped frequencies still in the foam, would I be charged with kidnapping if caught transporting trapped frequencies cross State lines? Finally, should I invest in any locks or barricades for the foam? I'm sure most trapped frequencies are just going to roll over and stay trapped, but what about those ambitious frequencies that won't just accept being trapped and plan to escape? 😂😂😂😂😂. Thanks ladies and gentlemen, I'm here all week!

    Great video Parker, but with all due respect, I would not use these foams by itself. You can get a mixture of materials, build the panels and spend pretty much the same ammount of money. You will kill the higher frequencies, but it won´t work for mids and low at all. Take care!

      Yeah that's great! If you can hang the blankets an inch or two away from the wall to create even more trapping that will happen between blanket and wall.
