Where to Build A StudioOn behalf of Expert Village my name is Gregg Tauriello. I'm from Sweet 16 Studio. I'm here to talk to you about sound proofing for a recording studio. I'm going to talk to you first of all about the construction of the building. When you're looking for a building to build a recording studio in - if you're fortunate enough to be looking for a building, the ultimate building to find would be a cement block building 'cause mass is what stops the sound. Anything heavy, the heavier the material the more sound you're going to stop. My building happens to be built of a 2 by 4 construction which is quite a bit less in sound retention than the cement block would be. If you can't find a cement block building your next best bet is a 2 by 6 construction. I couldn't be that picky so I went with this. This is a converted garage. It's a three car garage, that's 2 by 4 construction, so I had to do some extra work on the inside walls in order to protect the inside sound from going out and protect the outside sound from coming in and getting' on my recordings.

Great "sound" advice, Greg, and I like your studio's on-site "groupies" and "singers"!
