    Good to see you back Austin. I am an acoustic consultant specialising in building acoustics. Excellent job with the secondary glazed sliding door, looks to be providing around 20 dB reduction, you're unlikely to get greater than that due to the nature of the sliding door seals. Good job!

  • @JoshuaSantaCruz
    @JoshuaSantaCruz Месяц назад +1

    That's a great improvement. Here in Phoenix, my studio is a separate structure in my back yard and the dB reading at the property line can't exceed 55dB between 11pm and 7am, so you'd be in the clear! Good thing I only share the fence line with one neighbor to the west! Lol

  • @adamalesidrums

    really cool. You could hang something like an Audimute Isole sheet that could probably cut back a little more, and still be somewhat removable

  • @benjaminpeternorris
    @benjaminpeternorris Месяц назад

    Haha you made it!! Great stuff. That is a significant reduction and good to have the decibel readings to back it up. Other than bricking it up entirely, it's difficult to know what you could do differently. Another laminated glass door on the inside with different thicknesses of glass perhaps (or replace panes of glass with the laminated variety in the existing inside door?) That would add significant cost and probably only give a marginal benefit. Adding some temporary baffles that you could completely seal up and block the enclosure may also work, which could easily be removed when not needed. I deliberately decided to not have a glass window or door to the outside of my drum room due to the complexities of soundproofing. I made an internal window from two panes of laminated glass and solid core communicating doors on the inside (as per Rod Gervais specs), then only had external doors outside my room within a room. The idea was to have some secondary natural light bouncing in from outside, whilst the inner sanctum of my drum room remained sealed. It kind of worked - I made (a very poor) video to test it. I plan on doing another one at some time with dB readings to compare the results.

  • @kharnation
    @kharnation Месяц назад

    That’s amazing on the higher frequencies! It flattens the snare sound, mostly the bass and racks that still cut. Could you use a vinyl curtain or heavy rug to trap the low end further? And how much of that is travel through the floor? (I haven’t watched the entire build video yet so you may have answered some of these).
    Super impressive though! I’m curious what a knock test would be like on the glass too, could you hear someone knocking in the outside doors from inside the studio?

    • @abbdrums
      @abbdrums  29 дней назад

      I have a doubled up set of heavy sound absorbing curtains but they don't do much to stop sound transmission. I want to keep that door easily accessible so anything more hardcore than that would be too cumbersome to constantly be moving out of the way.

  • @Hardcorepunk87
    @Hardcorepunk87 20 дней назад

    It wouldn't be cheap, but if you really wanted to get it better I think you would need to build a type of sun-room/mud-room addition.

    A heavy duty double curtain rod that is installed near the ceiling and atleast 1 ft on either side of the door. The first rod to hold moving blankets turned into curtains, the 2nd rod actual curtains that look decent. Try to have the blankets and curtains be less than two inches from the floor.

    The only other thing I can think of is room darkening curtains in front of the door. Ikea rods are great quality and affordable. You can go as heavy duty as you want with fabric, and you can even do multiple layers with the Ikea rods. You'll lose the natural light, but maybe you would only want to close them after sundown anyway?

      Neighbor's never been on my back, we are friends. I do all this mainly for me to feel comfortable that nobody around can really hear me. Also, to keep outside noise like cars, mowers, leaf blowers, etc from coming in. The door works well enough to achieve all that so I'm happy with it.
