Good luck in your career, remember it's just the beginning, the road is long and difficult, but you will eventually reach your goals. Keep up the good work and always remember to be thankful to your family and friends who helped you in this project.
Absolutely amazing.. The transformation is stunning. Congratulations to you and all the wonderful people who helped you with this labor of love. Great video Leo!
Ein wirklich gutes Video! Und mit Abstand das beste Homestudio was sich jemand selbst gebaut hat. Mein absoluter Respekt. Vielen Dank für diese Inspiration.
Thank you for the kind words! And yes, definitely. I once tried to count the hours that went into this project, including the video but stopped soon afterward :D
Video is amazing and i was about to give a Thumbs Up in the end, but once i saw Rivendells Walpapper at 12:02 i couldnt help but stop and insta like it!
Ah da hat jemand aufgepasst 🥰 Hab dieses Design mal irgendwo im Netz gesehen, allerdings rund - das war mir aber zu schwierig weil ich keine Balken gefunden hab in der Größe, dann mussten es eckige auch tun :D
Wow! Just amazing, how you managed to build so much by yourself! Thank you for taking us through this building process, this is very helpful! Looking forward to hearing wonderful music coming right out of the chambers of this gorgeous studio!😀
Eine ganz tolle Arbeit! Extrem hochwertig, sehr durchdacht, schönes Design, sehr informativ und interessant gestaltet! Ich freue mich, Deine weitere Arbeit verfolgen zu können! Viel Erfolg weiterhin! Herzliche Grüße, Manu
Amazing video quality for a new / small subscriber count youtuber. It's my first video of you I'm seeing, I loved it. You must have spent a fortune to sound-proof the room. I hope it makes your life and recording business easier!
Thank you so much! Very kind words. I'd love to know how I can really get started. I'm doing my best, but it's super hard to please the algorithm. :D If you have any tips for me how to promote especially this video, feel free to let me know! I'd really appreciate it!
Yes, definetely :-) It sometimes scares me a bit because it can be SO quiet that you can even hear your own pulse, but it really turned out amazing :) Thanks again!
Schönes Studio habt ihr da gebaut! So Möglichkeiten hätt ich auch gern.. Was hast du denn da für Schläuche genommen für dein Cable Managament wo alle Kabel zusammenlaufen? Hast du auch gestimmte Bassfallen verbaut? Eine REW Messung von dem ganzen Projekt wäre doch auch mal ganz interessant ;) Viele Grüße
Heyhey! Danke dir vielmals :) Ich bin echt unendlich dankbar und mir auch durchaus bewusst, dass das ein riesengroßes Glück ist, das ich da hab. Aber so oder so, man kann auch aus kleineren Räumen immer super viel rausholen, wenn man das Budget richtig einsetzt. Ich hab jetzt gemerkt, dass es viel wichtiger ist in Akustik zu investieren als das Geld in zu teure Lautsprecher zu stecken. Und eigentlich echt ne coole Erkenntnis, weil wenn du da gezielt reingehst und das ganze DIY und low-budget machst - bekommst du echt ein super Ergebnis! Zu deinen anderen Frage: Das Video hier ist der Anfang von einer ganzen Serie in der ich tatsächlich genau auf die Dinge eingeh die du sagst bzw. hab ich mir die auch nochmal aufgeschrieben. Was Bassfallen angeht shconmal so viel: So halb. Wir haben Plattenschwingabsorber gebaut die bestimmte Frequenzen treffen aber sonst haben wir einfach geschaut dass wir die Ecken mit möglichst viel Hanf zu bekommen. Helmholz Resonatoren haben wir keine gebaut, da das 1. vom Design nicht so gepasst hat und 2. man da noch viel viel Preziser sein muss dass man ein halbwegs gutes ergebniss bekommt.
Thank you! If it works for you, it doesn’t matter how amazing it is :) It’s been many years now since I started building my first home studio-some things just take time to bring to life the way you envision them.
Good question! This will actually be covered in more detail in an upcoming episode about the flooring, but let me quickly explain it here: In Germany, during the last century, a specific type of wooden beam ceiling was commonly constructed. Essentially, these are wooden beams spaced about 50 cm (roughly 20 inches) apart, and they form the structural base of the floor. The beams themselves are approximately 20 x 10 cm (about 8 x 4 inches) and are made of solid spruce. They support the entire ceiling structure. We had a structural engineer calculate the load capacity, and it was approved for around 150-200 kg per square meter. It’s worth mentioning that in Germany, these estimates are incredibly conservative. They typically account for a safety margin of about 7-10 times the actual capacity. When we spoke with a carpenter friend who renovates older homes, he confidently said he wouldn’t hesitate to park a car on that kind of structure-it’s that robust :D As for how we got the material up there: we had it poured by a specialized company that brought the necessary pumping equipment. You can see the hose briefly in the video at around 5:35
:D Yes, kind of an old way to insulate ceiling back in the last century. I dont think they do it anymore, cause of the use of concrete these days, but back then- it was a thing. Also worth mentioning I'm located close to the alps, so there's a slight difference to the building materials used in more northern regions.
I tried using wood fiber insulation in my studio but I got an allergic reaction to it and I didn't really like the smell either. I did try wrapping them in some thin plastic film but it didn't really help so I had to get rid of them. Maybe if I had wrapped them really properly in an airtight airtight way it could have worked, but I wasn't really impressed so I chose some other material.
Got it, absolutely a solid reason to avoid using something like that. Having dealt with allergies myself for a long time, I decided to place Isobond material in front of the wood wool (and hemp wool). Not a single particle of wood wool gets through, and Isobond is, as far as I know, hypoallergenic. It’s the best alternative to the bigger more expensive brother "Basotect". Feel free to check out the PDF guide-I’ve explained it in more detail there!
@leobrennauer I don't doubt you can make it work with proper precautions, I just didn't want to put in the effort. Great looking studio BTW, and an enjoyable video to watch. What kind of work will you do in you studio?
@@astral_brain Absolutely, everyone sets their priorities differently! About the work: It’s less film music project work compared to recent years and more focus on video-related content and services. Funny enough, just as I started diving into that direction and RUclips, a big pop project suddenly came my way. So, let’s see where this journey takes me-but RUclips will definitely remain a major part of it!
Amazing build! Looks dope man. One question, what are your thoughts on air ventilation? I'm considering it for my studio but not to sure it is really that necessary 😅
Thank you so much!! 😊 That’s actually a great question and maybe a topic I could cover in the series, as it was definitely a consideration during the planning phase. I'll try to keep it short: costs. To install a properly isolated ventilation system, even DIY, I would’ve had to spend thousand(s) of euros. I weighed that against simply airing out the room for 3-4 minutes every hour or two, and ultimately decided on the latter. For me, the current setup works great: I use a CO2 monitor to track air quality, and when it hits a critical level, I ventilate. Plus, when I’m doing tasks like office work, I actually enjoy keeping the window open. It’s a bit noisy outside, but the fresh air here in the Alpine foothills is fantastic! 🌿 If you’re working on a budget, I’d rather recommend investing in acoustics or workflow enhancements instead. In my opinion-and assuming you have the option to ventilate through large windows-you’ll get more value out of those improvements. That doesn’t mean it has to stay that way forever for me-I do have a spot on the wall facing the balcony where I could install a system later on, but it’s not a priority for now.
@@leobrennauer It's good content to add to the series, as it will surely be a very common question. Thank you very much for the answer, I think I'll do the same. If you don't mind, which CO2 monitor do you use? The options are unlimited and the prices aren't very appealing.
@@fernandocunha5413 Absolutely - good choice! I can definitely recommend the one I'm using. You can check on my gear page. This would even be my first affiliate if you buy :D leo-brennauer.com/mygear
@@leobrennauer Nice, I'll check it out. I'm still building the walls but when I get to the finishing I'll definitely check out your gear. Thanks man, you're a nice guy. Best of luck with the channel and your projects. 🙏🏼🙏🏼
:D Ja berechtigte Frage... Arbeit, Arbeit, Arbeit - Schlaf wird überbewertet. Puh, das kommt ganz drauf an, mit Technik (also PC, Monitore etc) oder ohne? Mit Planung, ohne? DIY oder das meiste gemacht? Oder auch ob man Werkzeug schon hat oder das alles kaufen muss; falls mans DIY macht. Ich werd auf jeden Fall irgendwann mal noch nen Video dazu machen!

:D Das seh ich als großes Kompliment! Die wirst du bald nicht mehr zahlen können ;D ne schmarrren, bring deine ukulele und lets go!
I just built my own home studio, but not nearly as amazing as this 🎉

How did you pour concrete in an upper apartment? What's the supporting materials underneath?
Good question! This will actually be covered in more detail in an upcoming episode about the flooring, but let me quickly explain it here:
In Germany, during the last century, a specific type of wooden beam ceiling was commonly constructed. Essentially, these are wooden beams spaced about 50 cm (roughly 20 inches) apart, and they form the structural base of the floor.

You guys have gravel under the second floorboards? I have never seen that in construction in the US.
:D Yes, kind of an old way to insulate ceiling back in the last century. I dont think they do it anymore, cause of the use of concrete these days, but back then- it was a thing. Also worth mentioning I'm located close to the alps, so there's a slight difference to the building materials used in more northern regions.
