Wow. This was incredibly informative and lotsa useful info with pics to go with the descriptions! Thank you! 🎉
Ahh nuts, I already pretty much completed the framing for my studio space in the basement and knowing what I know a week later, I probably would have used iso clips. I've got a similar space. living area, studio area, gym area. I'm on two external facing walls and the two internal ones we did staggered studs with one wall within a wall beside basement stairs. I probably should have used iso clips to connect the walls to joists for top plate. But I tell you, costs go up quick! I'm currently considering how I will tackle the ceiling as that is where most of the sound is going to escape once I get my drums back in the basement studio room. I'm trying to choose between resilient channel vs clips and hat channel then 2 layers of 5/8 drywall with minimal wiring coming through for lights. HVAC is going to be an interesting consideration.. I am far from the supply and return but it will still carry sound so I am thinking about insulated flexible pipe and snaking it somewhat within the joists. I'm looking forward to following your build. Damn I-beams in these newer homes. Total PITA.
Totally agree on costs. You still have the option to consider iso clips at this stage. Fair bit of work to make the switch but still possible. For the ceiling I would highly recommend iso clips and hat channel if you can afford the ceiling space. I used resilient channels and it’s a bit of disappointment. Not terrible, but not as good as I was hoping. I’m tall so I’m not sure giving up the ceiling height would be better overall, but I’m terms of isolation absolutely.
Re: HVAC. I’ll be posting my video on this by Saturday. It’s taken me a while cause it’s so difficult to explain without a lot of visuals. HVAC was the hardest part of the build, but so worth the effort. I used flexible pipe with bends just like you’re thinking. A few other steps as well.
@@simonbaxtermusic awesome stuff. I will be sure to watch the upcoming vid..and yes, i almost feel as if resilient channel won't be that much of an improvement over double drywall alone. I'm pricing out iso clips for the ceiling for this reason. HVAC though, i've spent hours trying to figure this out. I have a friend that does hvac but it is interesting that they dont see it as we see it for sound, they see it for efficiency.
