How to isolate sound on a budget?

  • drummies

    Lock yourself from the inside and do not open it to anyone. You can hardly isolate the sound of the gate so well)

  • scorp

    we lock ourselves up, but the point is that we don't want to attract attention at all! Of course it will be audible for anyone, but at least do something)

  • 5seven

    make the dressing room, on the gate the curtain is denser, on the wall of the dressing room there is a carpet from the side of the main room, there is also a curtain in the passage

  • scorp

    it is impossible because the garage is sometimes used for its intended purpose

  • 5seven

    then just a curtain instead of a wall a meter from the gate

  • scorp

    what to make it out of?

  • 5seven

    isolon. A comrade told me how they played in the garage with this isolon on the walls, and he ate the whole sound, for your purposes this is

  • swerus

    Carpet + acoustic foam !! Something like this ...


  • scorp

    This denyuzhka is needed, but its catastrophe is not enough !!!

  • swerus

    paralon costs a penny ... In Ryazan there is a plant for its production ... Carpets can be bought second-hand.))

  • scorp

    and how to seal the gate? curtain, but from where to get such a fabric that can be folded and that it will be good to isolate the sound?

  • swerus

    in the first place, insulate the gate with styrofoam 5 oh !!!! You can take 3 large carpets, + stir up the curtain, the carpet at the top is folded to form a loop for planting on the curtain like a flag on a flag-stock + using a riveter, make these same bends for dressing a gamguardine, carpets are layered on each other and you are warm and quiet !! The main thing is that the carpet covers all the cracks

  • scorp

    sensible! Thanks for the advice!

  • kirill_an

    [b] swerus [/ b], 100% right. I did the same in my studio (also in the garage).

  • Ivan_drums

    I wouldn't say that the foam is cheap.

    With the dudes rap. we are repairing the point and a lot of money was spent on acoustic foam rubber.

    And Kovrolin is far from worth a penny.

    But damn it, these things are really cool.

  • pavel_drumsss

    acoustic ...ahem... foam rubber barely works for quiet speakers, in order to reduce the effect of sound reflections from the walls, it is unsuitable for sound insulation in principle.


    acoustic
    foam rubber is purchased for already noise-insulated rooms (lined with internal the sides are plasterboard), and is mounted on drywall to reduce the reverberation effect of high-medium frequencies.


    in
    other words, it is possible to clean up the echo effect of the room with this very foam rubber and then not across the entire frequency spectrum. Carpet works on the same principle, but even less effectively than this foam rubber.



    for effective sound insulation of drums (bass) in combination with brick walls (2 standard bricks thick), it is necessary to use basalt wool slabs 70-80 centimeters thick (10-12 layers of slabs, observing the air layers between them) in a box-in-a-box frame (made of timber)



    and frequencies below 80 Hz (a bass combo rocked at a good volume) will still penetrate outside.

    Sound
    insulation is never cheap, it's a personal experience.



    in the case you described, the most inexpensive but really effective option would be -



    1) brickwork the gate strictly with a brick (foam blocks do not roll)

    2) put a noise-insulated door, better a couple

    3) a box-in-a-box frame and basalt. plates (from the walls, for example) in a couple of layers at least

    4) plates should be covered with non-woven fabric, because they dust like fiberglass materials


    in
    short, look for another way


    hang carpets the more - the better and negotiate with the neighbors so as not to interfere, they will still hear you.



    if the garage walls are brick and thick, and it is the gates that "sound" - you can just brace them up and put a noise barrier. door



    brick is a very effective material in sound insulation.

  • pavel_drumsss

    efficiency of materials for sound absorption -



    brick wall 10 cm thick = wooden wall (log house) 25 cm thick = "wall" of 50 density basalt fiber 1 meter thick.

  • pavel_drumsss

    [b] Ivan_drums [/ b], what are they saving from?



    extinguish reflections - agree (partially)

    as soundproofing - useless

  • scorp

    wow thanks! But the main trouble is that the garage must be used for its intended purpose! I cannot wall up the gate ((

  • runner

    Are we talking about soundproofing as a means of improving the acoustics of the room or minimizing the chances of getting lulls from the guys who cook the rear axle of the shahi next door?

  • scorp

    Hahah second option))

  • runner

    sorry, didn’t read the post to the end. All the same, in your row it will be audible and clear what you are doing here. The most correct thing is guides and isovol, if you need details, write in a personal

  • insider

    Minwata rockwool what a thread. 35 - 50 density in 2 layers) but this is clearly relatively budgetary.

  • amdm

    Glue the boats over, make frames and there in a couple of layers
