Soundman2020, 26 April 2010Do you just want to practice in their, or do you want to record? I very much doubt it would work for recording: That's way too low to even get overhead mics in decently,…

gullfo, 6 May 2011put the drums on a platform - 2" (100mm) rigid insulation on the floor, 2x 3/4" (19mm) MDF, 1x 3/4" (19mm) plywood (so you can screw in the drum pedals). trim the edge…

Soundman2020, 4 January 2016Much better! :thu: And Feliz Año Nuevo to you! :) I'm not sure how you got a reading of 8-10 dB for the ambient level, but that isn't correct. 10 dB is the level you'd…

Gregwor, 13 January 2018Wall with drywall or some other hard/heavy surface = leaf. This is also the "mass" in a MSM system. To achieve sound proofing, you need 2 leafs with air/insulation…
Soundman2020, 25 October 2018I'm not sure if anyone has measured the isolation, but I would expect somewhere around 30 dB or so, by itself. That depends on a lot of variables! If this booth is all…
