Basic Tips & Techniques for Soundproofing

Summary: Recording studios are wonderful tools to help artists record their music and present it to the world. One of the reasons they are so important today is because of a little thing called soundproofing. In a good recording studio every room is isolated sonically from every other room so that if a drummer is playing in one room and you are recording a guitarist in another, you don't hear the drums in the guitar recording. Soundproofing is the essence of the studio experience. Without it we might as well set up in any room and hit record.

This is a great series that shows the step by step process of creating a recording studio from the ground up and how it is soundproofed along the way. You will learn about the insulation used, how rooms are designed and the differences between each room and the acoustics of each. Along the way, air conditioning is also a factor in any studio. That is covered here as well. So if you're a studio owner or looking to build one, take a look at this series and snag a few tips!
