To get a quiet room to be alone, or a recording studio, or music room, you must create a soundproofed room. Read the descriptions below to get useful advice on how to create soundproofed rooms either at a low cost or in a way like professionals. If you do not want to be bothered with all that, you can visit our website to get the best soundproofing.
Install acoustic panels curtain or a thick blanket. You can absorb a little sound by installing a thick blanket on the wall. If you are willing to spend a little money, buy a thick soundproofing curtain instead. If you have a thick and isolated wall, this will have a little extra effect.
Install the door sweep (rubber pad like a broom installed under the door). Nail this rubber pad at the bottom of the door to close the gap. If the gap is too wide to cover with a sweep, attach a piece of wood at the bottom of the door first.
Use acoustic booster panel. Buy panels that are 30.5 x 30.5 cm in size with 5 cm deep depths. This panel is very good at acoustic wall panels with low to high frequency. Some panels have been equipped with adhesive glue. Use a spray glue to attach the panel to the wall and ceiling if the panel is not fitted with adhesive glue. You can cover all or part of the surface, depending on the level of stability that you want. This will dampen the 'noise' in the room and make your ears comfortable, especially if the room is used for music practice.
Use a panel that is mostly material from fiberglass with an outer layer made of thin Mylar holes. This type of panel is superior in terms of soundproofing among virtually all damping panels except for the most expensive dedicated panel. The benefits you get are worth the money you spend, much better than any other product on the market.
If you fixed an existing wall, draw a wall frame and stick it to the surface so that it can hold it to an existing board. Cover this with a new drywall or sheetrock layer.
Separate the two layers of the wall. Every time a voice passes through new materials, some of its energy will be absorbed, and some others are reflected. Develop this effect by creating walls made of two sheets of sheetrock or drywall, with as wide a space as possible. This is named decoupling. Decoupling actually makes the walls not so good in blocking sounds that have low frequencies, due to the echoes on the walls. If the distance between walls is only 2.5 cm or less, you should use a dampening compound to overcome this effect.
Design your board placement. Most walls contain one row of boards attached to both layers. Sound can get through this board easily, so it can thwart your hard work. When building a new wall, choose one of the following placement boards:
- Two rows of boards, one in pairs along each side of the interior. It's the best soundproofing, but requires enough space to provide a gap between two rows of boards.
- One uneven row of boards, placed alternately along one side of the interior, then on the other.
