1.Putting fibreglass insulation between exterior and drywall panels may help to attenuate mid-high frequencies but will not touch low frequencies

2. same for cavity wall insulation (styrofoam?!)

3. acoustic foam is not soundproofing, its acoustic treatment

4. cardboard cup holders - egg boxes are next to useless and again are treatment only and offer no soundproofing

This guy knows next to nothing about an area in which he is supposedly an 'expert' - useless

Whoa, he opened my eyes to "what they call foam". I will never look at recording music the same way again.

Just given how his room is looking, I think he really knows what he is talking about. XD WHERE IS HIS STUDIO!?!? XD He must not have one.

@KidRandomm - I agree. The lack of any acoustic treatment what-so-ever in the room behind him installs a pile of confidence in me. I hate when feedback bounces off a wall.
