Quick question on Leaf Systems:
Now that we hopefully understand the "leaf system" and the fact that M-A-M is the way to go (thus creating a 2 leaf system) jn construction for sound isolation......my question is, is there a standard in which this system theory says that after so much distance between walls, that the leaf system is no longer a consideration (for lack of better words)??
In other words if I have a 2 leaf system between my Tracking Room and Control room (2 walls with an air space in between),,,,,then 13 feet back is the exterior back wall of that studio, is that exterior wall actually a 3rd leaf (within the sound isolation leaf system theory)? :shock:
Same question is asked as far as roof/ceiling systems. Is there a certain amount of "space" between leafs that eliminates or voids the leaf system application?
I drew real quick what I am trying to ask here:
Thanks

I don't have any answer but i'm just chimming in to say that i was thinking about that for a while. Triple leaf are just everywhere no matter what we do considering what you mention above. If there someone knowledgable enough to clear things up it would be nice... knightfly?....Rod ?
AJ,
On thread Basement studio-room project in Boston area Luftweg does really good job questioning 3 leaf walls systems, adjacent rooms and so on. Topic of triple leaf starts some where on page 1 and ends on page 2 with one of Rods posts.

For that matter what about the air space outside the building and the building next to that and so on and so on. The whole world is one big leaf system! :shock: :PTriple leaf are just everywhere no matter what we do considering what you mention above.
