    Usually you’d get great results by putting the sound absorbing material behind (and around) you. Where the mic is facing. since most cardioid microphones cancel out a good amount of the sound behind it

    Look up phase cancellation and standing waves. Small booths absorb most your high frequencies leaving only the lows. It sounds muffled. To avoid that you need 6 to 8” of absorbent material

    Awesome video! I tried in my closet under my stairs. It didn't work because my ceiling wasn't flat. 8:40 probably going to have to trim the other ends also because wood length is never the same when its milled. I realized that when building shelves in my garage

    Love the video. would you happen to know if I did this same thing in my basement would I be able to sing in it without the people upstairs hearing me singing. because that’s what I’m looking to do. since it’s not my house this is perfect being portable but I want to keep the sound quiet.

    Two Thumbs up! Hey! I essentially say essentially a lot too! lol. I'm on it, only I'm using a small corner in my office and using idea from booth#1 to make booth #2, by putting blankets up from Goodwill up and possibly foam (hope it doesn't get too hot and run me outta here). And I thought I had a problem. No problem at all!

    perfect 👌 just what looking for, 😊 thanks 🙏 I feel more confident now to this again and start singing.. on low level

    I made mine with PVC pipes and it’s super stable too but it’s not 30 bucks for sure. It’s like 100 bucks for the pvc pipes and 50 dollars blankets and 50 dollar pads. So that’s like 200 bucks but still it does a great job so I’m happy

    • @TrueSoundTV
      @TrueSoundTV  4 роки тому

      bilbo calvez Hi, so no, this is only acoustic treatment and will only minimize the sound of the room being picked up into the microphone. What you’re looking for is sound proofing, which is physically stopping sound from entering your room, and vice versa. Without getting too in depth, soundproofing is almost entirely a way of building with heavy products that are very dense that help stop sound

    Is it just me or I didn't notice the big difference between the two options (regarding vocal quality)?
    Could it be that in the first option the blanket absorbed a lot of sound so that it even didn't bounce back at all (or really little)?
    Anyway a great work and I'm planning on making something like your 2nd option :)

    I made a really nice vocal booth for 100€ by buying aquisic foam triangles online, a bendable room divider and some glue, then I glued the foam on to the room divider on the inside. TThe room divider has to be taller than your self be some centimeters and then you can fold iitt around the mic and puta sheet on top or cardboard with glued foam on top.

    Vocal booth #2 seems to be better at covering all sound directions than booths #1 and #3.
    Vocal Booth #3 (separate video) looks like a portable booth you'd use if you were on the go and had to do a VO job on the fly..

  • @typingcat
    @typingcat 5 років тому

    But come to think of it, we don't need that much space to seal. We only need to seal the our head. So, what if some company creates a helmet (like those you were when riding a motorcycle) that blocks the outside noise and has a high quality microphone inside? Then you can just put on the helmet to record the voice cleanly, without the need for the huge booths that takes a lot of space.

    I heard that recording vocals in a booth will cause comb filtering. What are your thoughts on this?

    • @TrueSoundTV
      @TrueSoundTV  7 років тому

      Hey so everything creates comb filtering it's just about trying to reduce it to the point where it doesn't ruin things. So yes technically a small booth that is not well treated would do that. This is where acoustic treatment come into play and really changes things to reduce the comb filtering.

      +Krisper Kreme So the noise level is all based on gain staging. Finding a good balance from the preamp to the interface is all I'm doing. But no, my basement has zero isolation besides the vocal booth I was building. Thanks for watching

    Dear sir very nice VB. But in such small boundary, the voice is a little bit claustrophobic. Isn,t it?.

    • @TrueSoundTV
      @TrueSoundTV  7 років тому +1

      So in the recording world it is definitely possible to kill to much of the reflections. Either of these vocal booth options won't do that though. The point of recording a very dry vocal is to later on in the mixing process, add the room sound to the vocal depending on what the need is. This way you can control the room, reverb, or delay sound in the DAW. Hope this helps - Thanks for watching!

    This guy doesn't know that the problematic frequencies are coming from the vocalist's back. The back of the microphone is the least of the problems because cardioid microphones pick up sound coming from the front and sides.

    It's cool but there's no place to put your copy. I find it really distracting if I need to finagle to use a reflector and read copy. I bought the halo and it works great but again you can't read copy easily and that's the biggest issue, so I'll be returning it.

I track vocals here at True Sound Studios multiple times a day so it makes sense for me to have a really good booth, my clients expect that. In the past though, i have had a huge range of different vocal booths which is why i make these videos. Thanks for watching!
