Woven Reed Fencing on walls???

[themacarmy]

I built a room inside my garage (a room withing a room (10ft x 10ft with 8 ft ceilings), and used two separate walls for soundproofing. The inside is all sheetrock at this point, and I have a concrete floor.

I planned on putting in a floating wood floor, and was going to use some soft woven reed on the walls to break up the bad echoing that is going on. I thought of using foam behind the woven reed in area.

Any suggestions! Has anyone tried this? If so, what was the results.

STOP WITH THE FLOOR until you have read Paul Woodlock's posts on floating design and construction. You can very easily make things worse if you do not design and build it properly.

Agreed; also, the "bad echo" is probably a combination of parallel walls and nearly cubic shape of the room; even the 8' ceiling will share modal peaks/dips at a few places with the 10' walls. You will likely need a truckload of treatment in that room before you stop hating it... Steve
