The difference in my treated office studio homemade moving blanket "fort" and my new VocalBoothToGo AVB 3x3 is noticeable and measurable. Previously my noise floor was -52 to -48 and now it is -67 db.
This is accurate. I started building a recording space in my garage and the back door was sucking in all the annoying air conditioner noise. I have one Producers Choice blanket so I folded it in half and stapled it around the door. What a difference! It's not perfect but a noticeable reduction in volume coming into the garage.
I'm in an apartment and plan on buying a full wrap around blanket system with tracks for my recording space. The only noise I'm trying to keep from escaping is vocal. I'm top floor so the ceiling isn't a concern. Do you recommend anything for the floor to act as an additional barrier to keep my downstairs neighbors from hearing me yelling into a microphone?
We have special antivibrayion floor mats. Vibration cancelling floor mat: vocalboothtogo.com/product/anti-vibration-soundproofing-floor-mat/ It has mass loaded vinyl layer and one inch rubber. The mat blocks about 33 dB of noise
So it could be a possible solution, to make your DIY series more soundproof, using a double set of blankets ?? The structure can hold up two set of blankets?? And The db reduction is the same from outside to inside and viceversa ? So if I sing inside the DIY series can I approximately reduce about 8 db ,and if I put ( if is possible) an extra blankets I can reduce more db ? Thanks a lot
I live an apartment, have very noisy neighbors that share a wall with me, I'm building a content creator/home studio style room; can these blankets or these alongside something help?
The blankets will definitely help with the sound in your new studio. For sound blocking we also have special wall panels: Wall panel with soundblocking core: /product/wall-soundproofing-sound-block-panels/
Are they talking about our blankets or "blankets " in general "? Moving blankets do smell. We used to have that problem few year ago, but since then we made some changes in materials and changed manufacturers, so the smell problem does not exist anymore. As far as finish. I do not even know how to answer that. In my opinion the blankets are great for what they are designed to do. There could be some missing stitching, occasionally could be folds, but nothing to make them look "poor".
