Nice job, thanks for sharing the details. I was a little concerned about the door seals and the HVAC system, but see that you do have an air return (~ 54:32). By any chance did you do any before/after measurements of the SPL/dB of the living space while playing the drums? I'm curious how much you were able to reduce the sound levels transmitted through the house.
@@HoldenMcG I also had my HVAC guy come before starting the project and install an intake pipe so it pulls air in from outside instead of the closet. The only thing I directly measured was outside the sliding door which took the db from 60-70 to about 40-45. Might take more measurements at some point but that door was my only big concern.
@@abbdrums I see, that air intake pipe is a great solution. Don't want to starve any furnace/heater combustion process. That's a great delta on exterior sound reduction, which I'm sure your neighbors can appreciate! Thanks for the feedback.
I need a before & after outside dB measure playing the drums!
@@facundolopez79 I just posted the test video, linked above here now
That’s a hell of a project, very well designed and executed dude
I am so happu to see you posting videos again.I learn so much from you.
Awesome to see your premium content vidoes again!
So glad you are back, man! Congrats on the new studio
Lots of awesome studios you see out there (Juan, Adam, Louie and on as of recent memory) and this is right there, just next level insanity. Absolute perfection from soup to nuts, every single meticulous detail. Doesn't get better. Glad you're back brother and appreciate you and all the inspiration!
I'm so glad you're back. 🤘
Nice job! Beautiful floors, awesome choice of materials, and a very nice comfortable space you've built for yourself. I just finished my studio as well with a double door system. I used commercial walk-in cooler door latches to keep from drilling holes into the solid core door which is another potential source of leaking through the door knob system, even with two doors. It worked out great. Goes into the door with just screws, and a single small hole for the rod to open the handle. anyway, really really great job. You should be proud.👍🏻
Awesome video! It’s great to have you back. Congrats on the studio build. It’s absolutely sensational and looking forward to seeing more amazing content being created from it!
Finished product looks really nice! It looks like you have a gas furnace in that closet, if that is the case it needs combustion air which is why they originally had louvered doors on there. If it gets starved of combustion air it can cause back drafting and you can have carbon monoxide issues. I'd make sure you have some carbon monoxide detectors throughout your house.
Before starting the project, I had my HVAC guy come check it out and he installed an intake pipe so it now pulls air in from outside. Originally, there was no intake pipe installed and it was just pulling from within the closet. It's been over a year now and it seems to be working fine... or at least, I haven't died yet haha. Appreciate the concern though!
Fantastic job on the Studio Build, as well on the documentary of it. Looks killer. Great to see you again on your channel. Thanks for all your hard work and attention to detail that you put into all that you do, it is greatly appreciated and inspiring!
Welcome back!!
Thank you for doing the video and going into all the details. This will be very useful to me.
Looks amazing, Austin! I know that you put so much into this project and I am so glad that its worked out so well!! ❤️
Thanks Rachel :) Tell yo man to come hang cuz I need a cigarette break after editing these hour long videos lol
looks insane. thanks for sharing.
Awesome project! Congrats, my friend! Great space.
Amazing work man!!
Awesome work in any regard!
This room is so tight you can fill some water to make a swimming pool it would not leak :) It's beautiful work, congrats for all the efforts you put in this project, the result is awesome!
Excellent work. I wish I had found your channel and this video before I embarked on my own rebuild. Fortunately, I made very similar decisions as you but it took me 3-4 times as long to learn each step of the process. I’m very impressed and have much respect for your work and thank you for sharing it with us.
Can't wait to hear what this amazing studio and your talent produce man! Awesomeness!
Great video, very inspiring and detailed.
У вас очень хороший вкус. Чувствуется, что вы вложили всю свою душу в ваше детище. Можно только порадоваться вместе с вами.Супер!!!
THE LEGEND IS BACK!!!!
Fantastic - wow a lot of detail, very well thought of, it gives me ideas for building my drum studio. congratulations....
Amazing!
Looks like that copper is a lower grade throughout, hopefully no other problems, as they say, a chain is only as strong as it’s weakest link.
Congratulations 🍾 good job team congratulations 🎈
Well done, brother! Looks absolutely amazing! Looking forward to the content once you’re rolling🫡
Wow … well done Austin. Looks awesome - hope you are happy with it all (I would be!).
Wow! you're back after 3 years.
Awesome bro 🤍 UK
Hey man cheers. Great job. Can you do a soundproofing test for us to see how much DB reduction you got outside (with the sliding window) and on the first floor of the house? It would be great to see the results.
The door took the db from 60-70 down to 40-45 right outside the door, which was my main noise concern. I haven't directly measured from anywhere else around the house but I may do that at some point.
@@abbdrums Tks man! It's a very good reduction.
@@facelen4321 ua-cam.com/video/tFUcYpLw0qE/v-deo.htmlsi=hzKE49HPM0AnoWuC
@@abbdrums wow super!
Thank you!
The problem with the battery is that if you want to make noise you have to go out of the city or soundproof a place with suitable materials, especially by raising the floor and lowering the ceiling. The decibels can be lowered but nevertheless the sound is always heard, unless a job like the one you indicate in this video is done. Blessings for everything you teach us and greetings from Zaragoza (Spain).
I'm a bit obsessed with watching soundproofing videos. It's so nice to see someone do it properly and take real care over it. So many videos I've watched and thought 'I wouldn't have done that, or he's installed that wrong etc..'. I can't fault your dedication to this space, it looks (and hopefully sounds) fantastic! - I'd love to hear a soundproof test with how effective that sliding door is at blocking the sound to your neighbour. - Maybe a future video?
It took the db down from 60-70db to around 40-45db, right outside the door. That was before I installed more weatherstripping though so I might re-test it again and see what it says. Might make a video but I'm kinda burnt out on the studio stuff so we'll see haha
@@abbdrums That's a significant reduction. Hopefully it should keep your neighbour happy!
@@benjaminpeternorris Seems to be working so far haha
The dream!! How much did that cost you if you don't mind me asking?
I honestly didn’t add it all up b/c I didn’t want to know haha. But for all the labor + materials + door etc, it was around $25k. Sounds like a lot (which it is,) but if you were to hire a real studio builder in a music city, it’d easily be $50k-$100k+ plus for a custom studio. If you get your own contractors and just tell them what to do, you can save a lot of money.
What a thorough job! No one is talking about the massive gorgeous trees! You’re not in NC are you?
West Virginia
@@abbdrumsgorgeous area! Very cool studio transformation
It's crazy to see the evolution of that room each step of the way and how great it turned out at the end. Thanks for documenting all of it for us.
One thing that got me curious is to how effective that sliding door is at blocking sound. It would be interesting to see an audio comparison (door open vs door closed) right from the outside, to have an idea of how effective the insulation actually is. Anyway, keep up with the great content, Austin!

@@abbdrums Thank you so much for this!
use wood shims to install the slat panels ;) 58:30
Amazing job. I was thinking you should have painted the floor too, then you would have the Spinal Tap quote about how much more black could your studio be? None, . . . more black !
Nice build! When I built my soundproof room, I closed up the air vents and added a mini split HVAC unit. Do you get any sound bleed to the rest of the house through the air vents?
There is some bleed through the vents but I’m okay with that. Hasn’t been a problem. Isolating the studio from the home hvac system seemed a little overboard for me so I just kept the existing ductwork how it is. My main goal was just to isolate from the outside world more than inside the house.

I love that rug. Can you share where you got it?
rugs.com/red-6x9-bokhara-area-rug-6252880?click_source=pdp_size
Well, how does it sound?
Might that be a bit cheaper, if for example, the doorstop continues at the bottom, so it's basically a full frame, and you just add another isolation panel bit at the bottom, just the same way as at the top? I know it might not be as comfy to step over the bottom part of the doorstop frame, but it might save some money for that automatic door seal. The downside is obvious tripping over it 😂
Yea you could build a custom threshold, but like you said, you'd have to step over it and also anchor it into the concrete. The auto door bottom seemed like a slicker, easier solution for me.
@@abbdrums yep, that might compromise soundproofing because of coupling with concrete. Soundproofing is quite a task! Awesome, well thought build, btw! Glad to see you back! Can't wait for new episodes of "study the greats")
A room full set
What are your feelings on the color black?
Love it. Great neutral backdrop so you can create whatever vibe you want with lighting.
@@abbdrums lol yup, can tell you love it. looks amazing.
@@abbdrums had you considered a whisper room within that room? I know those aren’t perfect and are still expensive. just curious.
@@kevinhugh5411 I’ve looked into those before but always gravitated more toward just renovating a room into a custom studio.
It angers me that you only have 10K Views on this video. I look for in-depth videos like this & can never find them
I guess it is kind of a small niche. Not too many people in the world looking to build a soundproof drum studio haha.
Camera 🎥 you tube channel
We back! 😮
Talk about overkill! Not everyone can afford a $30.000 rebuild.
Appreciate how he showed the steps to a great build.. you can always do a lesser version if you must but it’s nice to see what “great” looks like, IMHO
So, the studio isn't actually soundproofed? You've just stopped sound getting out to the neighbours? I say that because you haven't created a room within a room have you? You appear to have just applied a layer of drywall. Or have I missed understood?
What I’ve done here is what the term “room within a room” means. You build a new isolated interior wall with 2 layers of drywall. Soundproofing really just means sound reduction, nothing is ever fully “soundproofed.” How much reduction you need and what you are trying to isolate from is different for everybody. For me, I just needed to not disturb the neighbors or have sounds from outside disturbing me.
