Acoustic panels effect: Cheap room treatment

Поділитися

  • Опубліковано 1 жов 2011
  • Acoustic treatment: four step of the process in making our studio sounds better. Total of panel used: 36mq (about 118 ft.) plus the bass traps it cost me around 500€
    I do not sponsor any company of panels in any way, please beware of false advertising.
    A live recording, to get an idea of the sound properties of the room in action: • Yellow Submarine - Pun...
    Listen trough a pair of headphones or a good set of speaker to ear best the differences in sounds.
    The mic used in this test are a pair of built-in stereo mics of a panasonic Lumix TZ-10 shooting at 720p.
    Thanks for your support!

      @narcoman2 7 років тому +6

      BUT - if you listen on monitors, you'll hear the false sense of security it gives you. Most of the trapping has been in the upper regions. There is very little trapping of the low mids and bass end - this will give you a very skewed picture. Still - an effective demo.

      @DithanBeatz 3 роки тому +4

      Bass traps help you absorb standing waves and low frequencies in the corners. It barely has influence on the snare, but it will fix your kicks, toms and basses.

    Thank you for making this. Most videos about this are produced narrative pieces that don't really clear up much. I looked for "Amazon bass trap empty room" an saw this and it is PERFECT. Every treatment step is shown and heard starting with a really terrible empty room. That's all I needed. That's probably all anyone needs. Thank you so much.

    Thank you for posting this. We are going to make changes to a new meeting room at our church. It has a concrete floor, metal ceiling, and drywall on the walls. It's 100 ft long (about 33 meters), 18 feet tall, and 40 feet across. You cannot have a decent conversation at 3 meters away. Seeing the differences in the steps encourages me that we can improve the room just by covering 30% of the surfaces.
