    never put LEDs on fabrik. it's a fire hazard and insurance will step out if anything happens. Buy some aluminum rails, they are not that expensive anymore. you don't want to be responsible for other people burning down their houses pls!

    • @MikeBelloMusic
      @MikeBelloMusic  Рік тому +8

      This is a very good point! I never really thought about the possibility of the LED's malfunctioning or catching fire. Thanks for the tip - Aluminium rails sounds like a much better way to build the panels

      you can put led strips on fabric, they don't get anywhere near hot enough to start a fire.

      @@drbass9677 oh boy, I've seen malfunctioned leds a lot of times and trust me they burn. Absolutely no problem on aluminum rails but on fabric...
      Normally every Led comes with a manual and it clearly states on which surface they are allowed to be mounted and in all cases I had so far, it says non-FLAMEABLE surface. Which for example is aluminum.

    Having a budget really makes you focus on the important elements, and from the video, you have prioritised the essentials of room acoustics and mood lightning and some desk rearrangement and tidy up. These simple things help to create an environment which makes you want to spend time in the studio. It all ended up looking great for your budget. In the end it is about the music, and this space hopefully will allow you get that done. Enjoy

    • @DamienTheCat
      @DamienTheCat Рік тому

      If you need mood lighting and color changing RBG lighting to convince yourself to keep writing music, maybe it isn't for you.

    • @MikeBelloMusic
      @MikeBelloMusic  Рік тому

      There's a big difference between NEEDING something to CONVINCE you to keep going, and simply just making your space look nice. Imagine if someone told you "If you need to clean your space each week and have a tidy desk to convince you to write music, maybe it isn't for you." 😂 It's okay to make your space look nice

    • @MikeBelloMusic

    Dear Mike, I am quite surprised with the result. It looks amazing and you should be proud that you did every single part of it by yourself. You motivated me to do the same, even though I may not be able to create the frames and all other stuff by myself. I am also living in rent and I was searching to see if acoustic treatment is possible without any drills. Thanks for showing that.
    And maybe a question, do you think it would work if I get the absorbers and use multiple command strips? There are commant strips which can carry up to 7kg and I believe I wouldn't have any problem if I use 4 of them. That is my idea to make it and hopefully I'll start in couple months, but I would like to get your thoughts on that since you made it very very good! Thanks

    • @MikeBelloMusic
      @MikeBelloMusic  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks Ali, Glad you liked the video!
      I actually used multiple command hooks on all of my panels, so yes it does work. My panels have 2 hooks per panel. The thing you need to be careful of if using 4 hooks is to make sure that they are perfectly aligned with whatever part of the panel they are hanging onto, so that they are all carrying the load evenly. If you are just using the command velcro strips then just try to space them as evenly as possible.
      Good luck! Let me know how it goes!

    • @MikeBelloMusic
      @MikeBelloMusic  2 роки тому +29

      Thanks! And good question, the temperature is fine for most of the year because it gets a bit cold where I live. Although, for about 3 months during summer it does get really hot. When it gets too hot, I take a short break, open the door and turn on the air-conditioning. It's good to take regular breaks when producing anyway to 'reset' your ears, so I just do it during these breaks

    • @KevinTheKiidBeats

      Also, if by chance you get to see this comment, do you know what that material is called for that thin netting that you put into the frame to keep the rocwool from sagging onto the frame?

    • @MikeBelloMusic
      @MikeBelloMusic  Рік тому +1

      Glad it was helpful! Just rember though that these panels won't do much to isolate the room sound, - these are more designed for reducing the reverb in the room. For room dapening you need slightly different treatment and it would probably need to be on every wall and door in the room

    • @MikeBelloMusic
      @MikeBelloMusic  Рік тому +1

      Yeah that material is just chicken wire. Any variation of mesh will work though - you just need to make sure that the material is thick enough that you can pull it tight without it breaking. That tension is what stops the sagging
