"Less room, more Certainties in this world; death, taxes and a pun from Joe Gilder... 🤣

Try:
Moving blankets on the walls and on the floor. Cheap solution.
Flip the breaker switch on the refrigerator. Big difference.
Dynamic mics so I don't pick up my neighbor flushing the toilet.
Quiet computer equipment.
I may try bass traps.

I have homemade fabric covered wooden boxes with cushions I use in my studio space. It creates bass traps, works as storage and can be used as seating for others in the room. I don't like unitaskers. Find things that are multi-purposed.

Great timing to see this video! I just added 6 more panels (12 total) in my small room. Hung some clouds! Finally sounds amazing. Thanks for all your helpful videos.

Thank you very much for this information, it is very useful. But I think that before building acoustic panels, you have to be in a house or a building where the electrical cables are insulated. Is it true ?

[fromdanorth]

Thanks for this vid, very informative and to the point

Just waiting for my barefoots then I’ll be reshooting my room with REW.
I built all the panels in my room. Took a bit and had to be creative but it sounds so much better for both recording and mixing.
Love your channel.

Thanks, Joe. This is the source of most of my hesitancy to lay down more acoustic and vocal tracks. When I did that earlier this year, the guitar came off tinny and thin, with a sound I interpreted as flutter echo.

[steeliewheelies]

Thanks for the tips! Setting up my room is the next big step for me as a bedroom producer/artist

[jordanheyvaert]

It was nice to see more of your studio space:)

[CazadorNocturno]

Great piece of advice, I tend to move things around in my home and haven't any room treated properly. I have to set every time I need to record but with this fundamental I got just what the recording needs. Thanks dude!

[orryfishburne]

Treatment is my next project for my home studio. ive been really hesitant about it since i dont know what im doing, but after seeing how u treated your space and how effective a couple panels can be, im just going to go for it and do my best. My space really needs it. Thanks for the tip like usual Joe. 😁

Very informative. Quick question, how and where do we get the absorption panels made from? There's so much junk on YouTube about panels made of foam, towels, rockwool etc etc. Tips on the absorption panels in the next video maybe?

[AdamWellsMusic]

Great tips! Carpet definitely helps. Just got 1 panel and some foam squares.

[kevinlbrockway]

Primacoustic panels from Sweetwater. Lots of options, not too expensive 😉

[bj]

I just built eight absorption panels, 3-1/2” x 24” x 48”. The insulating material is Rockwool. I have yet to use them, with two other big projects taking my time this month. But I’m optimistic they will make flutter echo and comb filtering a thing of the past. Exciting.

[therealmattmann]

Great advice as always, Joe! My room has always been my biggest struggle because it’s so boxy. I guess it’s time for more DIT bass traps! 😎👍🏼

[levirphillips]

Room treatment is the reason Joe can be a foot away from his condenser and sound crispy. 👌

[ScarletEyeMoon]

thank you for your video, some great tips, i'm going to look up how to make panels

[brokenskater]

I've got a cloud, first side reflections, front corners, (back corners have cutouts that can't be treated ones a door and ones a closet), behind mix position, behind monitor/speakers as you can hear the bass coming from the front of the room most. And the left side wall. Right side wall has a huge window. I have to use a music stand to have my panel for my right first reflection in position.

Rooms mostly even except for a peak around 140hz and another around 350
/400hz ish
