Great info on this video! I have a small walk in closet that I converted into a studio. It has a drum set, guitar amp and p.a. With the door closed it gets hot with 2 people and oxygen gets slim. I have to eventually open the door. To solve this without opening the door, I have thought about installing an exhaust fan. Luckily the walk in closet has the roof entrance in the ceiling. Thinking of just getting a foam 4x4 board and installing an exhaust fan on it. Then replace the existing wood board covering the entrance with it. The fresh air outside the room can go in from the bottom of the door with the help of the exhaust fan sucking the stale air out. Lmk what you think.
Thanks for this excellent video. I've been going back and forth on this for a while, but I actually have a large window in my control room. Does all this just mean I should just open the window? I know it defeats the soundproofing part of the problem, but when its just me, or a couple of people i'm guessing I should just open the window, correct? Trying not to over engineer a solution to a problem I may not have.
After watching your videos i preety much cleared on how to make it ventilated but here's a small ques... Can we use air purifier instead of ventilation ? little bit confused
I was wondering, i read alot about placing such a box of placing separate fans for freshair and exaust. But why not place just one on the exhaust and add just a vent with a diy sound maze box? The exhaust fan wil create a underpressure in the room what wil suck fresh air from the vent. In my country (The netherlands) the is like the normal way to extract air from our houses ( and thus suck fresh in )
I have a combination alarm in my studio, smoke and CO. Its also tied to the rest of the house system as the studio is sound proof and would not hear any alarms just in that room
I have a concrete room I want to soundproof for drums. Not to a perfect STC but something to keep neighbors happy (in a townhouse). Should be a space between the inner and the concrete wall? If so, what is the recommended separation.
I started my project then relaised I needed ventilation. On your workshop video you made ventilation from a lined wooden baffle. Is this Fantec system to replace that? I'm really stuck on how to ventilate my soundproof room as it is inside the house with a dry wall into my garage, and the other 3 walls solid into the house. So the vent will have to go into the garage and out from there somehow.......
Yes it’s a tricky situation. I can help from a consulting side or you can watch my ventilation vids. Here is a link to book a consulting session if you are interested: www.soundproofyourstudio.com/offers/P8zp8ByG/checkout.
@@soundproofyourstudio Hi Wilson, I am based in the UK. Are you familiar with the building regulations for the UK? Do you know of fans etc that I can purchase in the UK, as importing thewm from the USA will be time-consuming and potentially costly paying import duties. If you can design a system that will suit the uK building regs with parts that I can source in the UK I would sign up.
@@soundproofyourstudioI need to know everything sir. Please help me, maximum two to three people are going to be in my small studio, most of the time it's only me
