What's up oh people of wisdom. Got a 3 leaf/garage studio question.
IF the exterior covering of the garage (wood sid.) is not hermetically sealed will it cause the "3 leaf effect" if I built something like this?:
Wood siding/2x4 studs/insulation/double drywall - space- 2x4 studs/insulation/double drywall
Surely more questions to come..
Will leaky exterior wall be 3rd leaf???

I'd make sure your inner studwall is isolated from structure, then put at least 3, preferably 4 layers of drywall on the inside. Ceiling will need to match this, so maybe only 3 layers since 4 gets kind of heavy on a ceiling leaf.
doing this will also stiffen the inner leaf, so you'll likely need more bass trapping to even out the room response... Steve
