Seriously, use these.. you can't even buy the wood alone for the same price for making frame yourself.


Buy a couple packs of Rockwool terrain bats which is the most dense.

A knife (To cut bats to size), a large hole drill (Drill large holes in the back of bookshelfs)

Old bedsheets for front cover.

1 hour later you have yourself some excellent bass traps.

Buy some wheels for your traps, make 3 of above and you can wheel them around and make a vocal booth when needed.

Expensive studio monitors in an untreated room is money down the drain.
Great Idea!

Someone buy that man a drink!

Meanwhile..my studio is starting to look like one of them Hoarders gafs you see on the tv..I have got A LOT of mass in here..everything..camping gear..busted speakers stuffed full of carpet..armchairs..upturned beds....you name it....floor to ceiling..dosent look too pretty..but it sounds awesome!!!

No chance of a rogue standing wave survivng in here..but not too dead either.

Still not 100% happy about the ceiling situation though

If only I could think of a way to suspend my couch from the ceiling..I'd be on a winner.
