Basic Tips & Techniques for Soundproofing : Creating Good Acoustics in a Recording Studio

[menoziinrevoltado]

From gesture to facial expressions, he acts just like Paul McCartney.

i know this is silly.

but by "good acoustics" people don't necessarily mean long resonance but they mean its clear and easy to hear subtleties in w.e. is being played/sung/etc right?

[GNoBB]

If you all know so much, why are you watching a tutorial

[mr4y]

First, acoustic has nothing to do with sound ISOLATION (is impossible to have soundproofing, unless you make a airless gap between two spaces).

Second, someone speaking about acoustics and having more gear than acoustic treatment in his room? Watch out people!

Expert village my ass....

[Faderjockey]

Hey Expert, There is no such thing as Soundproofing..

You can control the Acoustics but you can not make something soundproof... If you could you wouldn't hear anything inculding yourself.

HEY HEY !! LMAO

[angie4josh]

he sais "and deadness" so pleasantly. LOL

[angie4josh]

or you just use effects for deadening the sound or livening it. LOL

[wirezts]

Not so easy when deadening!

Plus it's good to deaden your room for monitoring purposes even if you don't record there

[gnialf]

he tells us about sound and this vodeo has so much hiss.. haha and the mic clips when he yells.. no compressor/limiter there haha he is funny and he should stop talking and learn to record.. haha i'm just having fun here ok ;)

[da805boy]

This is ridiculous! If you want to know the frequency response of your space get a real time analyzer and run some pink noise into a measurement microphone. This guy knows nothing about acoustics!

[DannyHere2009]

Darn Youtube, that was aimed at the person who said USB Microphones are crap =) :P

[Chrvl88]

Clap,Clap,Clap, Check!! Hey!! Hey!!

[Vger1983]

nice shirt fag

[chrisfi3d]

that was a cheap call

[xmdbjx]

CHECK! HEY, HEY!! hahaha

i like this guy he seems real cool and knows what hes talkin about.. id like to record with him

[mrmikerotch]

You use a reflector to absorb?

[damidamon]

is Samsung G-Track Usb Condenser Microphone a good mic for a home studio

[superbriman007]

usb mics=crap. end of story

[rasco27]

agreed!

[DannyHere2009]

That would depend entirely what you're planning to do. I don't fancy getting involved in too much of a discussion but take for example the Samson C01U or Q1U - both excellent microphones. Ideal for podcasting or the like. For portable use, USB Microphones, in my opinion gain favor over a mixer/mic/pre amp etc - it's so much easier if you've got a laptop or the like and wish to record a podcast or an acoustic instrument anywhere you go, just plug the USB lead in and you're away.

[sevegarza]

for a sound pro this video doesn't have good sound

[HomoGoldfish]

Maybe your sound system is shit, sevegarza

[funkydafunker]

Big time thanks.Very valuable information.

[Jerraph]

This video's NOT about soundproofing at all, more about absorbtion, which is a completely different topic.

[msjane89]

I am doing neo soul. rnb vocals, do I want deadness?

[dkrumrie123]

Hard to say. If youre recording in a makeshift studio and it is not professionally treated I would go for a dead sound. Its easy to add reverb or delays after. It is almost impossible to remove a bad sounding room. When I do all of my vocals I do it in my closet (full of clothes foam and blankets) its not sound proof but very dead. I then go in and add a plate or small room reverb and a bit of delay (around 10-15 ms) It wont sound as good as a professional room but its better than a shitty room

[InvisibleWalls]

Very nice.  Getting ready to Soundproof my office.

[HeroedeLeyenda15]

LOL HEY HEY bwahahahahaha

[eudojorgefaria]

It's so nice to know some people have the time and preoccupation to help other peoples understand some rules of acoustic.

Congratulations for the video.
