Hello everyone, my name is Gianluca and I'm writing from Italy.
I turned a basement into a recording studio, but I need a hand to the acoustic treatment.
Floor, ceiling and walls are covered with wood. Under the wood there is a layer of lead, polystyrene and moisture resistant material.
The dimensions are:
Length: 4m
Width: 2.56mt
Height: 2.7 meters
I would like to build all by myself (DIY) with a budget of EUR 800
I hope I have said it all.
Attached is the floor plan of the study and a photo of the current positioning of monitors
I have no experience in the field of acoustic treatment, can you help me??

Hi Gianluca, and welcome:
We'd need a lot more information than that to be able to do much! Please read the forum rules for posting (click here).
I'd suggest two books for you, to help you get started: "Master Handbook of Acoustics" by F. Alton Everest (that's sort of the Bible for acoustics), and "Home Recording Studio: Build it Like the Pros", by Rod Gervais. Those are both vary good books that teach you how to design your studio, and how to understand sound and acoustics.
Are you looking for information on actually designing and building a "room within a room"? Or are you just looking for information on how to treat your room, acoustically?
