Newby drum/live room creation
Posted: Sat Jun 27, 2020 1:35 pm
Hey Guy
Newby here (flame suit equipped and ready to go).
I am certain that a bunch of my questions I am about to ask have been asked here before and probably been answered by you guys ad nauseam, I am just suffering from information overload atm.
I am looking to turn a spare room in my house into a "live room" to record drums in. Frankly it is too small for purpose but I have to work with what I have got. I have given up any prospect of isolating it acoustically, I will just settle for treating the room so it doesn't sound like a reverb tank. I have included a rough drawing of the room. All the walls are shiny painted fibro, the roof is slanted and the floor is lino. My ears hurt just thinking about a crash being hit in that room in its current state.
I was thinking of covering the entire room in acoustic foam tiles and covering the floor in carpet and just killing the room completely and just calling it done. What do you guys think will be the best course of action? I wish to do this as economically/cheaply as possiable
Any assistance/guidance in the matter would be greatly appreciated.
