In part one of this three-part series, Justin Colletti of Sonic Scoop and Bob Mallory (producer and engineer for Avatar Studios and Paste Magazine) introduce you to the materials and construction methods needed to fabricate your own acoustic panels for a home studio. From framing to covering, they discuss the priorities in assembling the panels and the kinds of common problems that can be addressed in properly utilizing them.
Listen to A/B comparisons of acoustic guitar and voice-over examples in the original untreated room versus the room with the home-built acoustic panels, including clips with and without a reflection filter.
Later in the video, audition recordings of full-range pink noise played through studio monitors in the original untreated room and in the acoustically-treated space. A real-time analyzer is shown for visual comparison of the different resulting frequency responses.
Tune in to parts two and three to explore monitoring, speakers, headphones, mic techniques, mic lockers, and more.
