Hey guys- I'm thinking about cheaply trowing up some drywall in a practice space to avoid the parallel wall problem. No soundproofing, just changing the acoustic dimensions in the room. How much of a wall is needed? Thanks- PC

Coolio. Feel free to delete the topic, it was a shoot-from-the-hip bit of cuiosity. :D
