TOPIC: How To Make Your Acoustic Panels - DIY Sound Absorber Bass Trap
In this video, we showed how to make your own acoustic panels bass trap sound absorbers with simple woodworking techniques that can be used anywhere. Hope you like it! if you enjoyed the tutorial, please give this video a thumbs up, subscribe, and share. You may leave a comment if you have any feedback, thoughts, or questions. Thanks for watching!
PRODUCTION COST BREAKDOWN = $36 per panel (estimated)
$7.50 = MDF for the frame
$3.50 = Plywood for crossbars
$0.50 = Glue
$0.66 = Screws
$7.40 = Rockwool Insulation
$8.99 = Duck Canvas Fabric for the front
$5.98 = Muslin Fabric for the back
$1.25 = Staples
Keep in mind that when buying these supplies, they are usually sold in packs, yards, and large portions. For example, the MDF costs $7.50 per panel but the smallest MDF is usually sold in 2ft x 4ft at $14.99 which will adequately supply for TWO panels.

is it safe to say, regardless of what type of insulation you use, you will still be breathing in some of this crap into your lungs. thinking seriously about bypassing the acoustic panel thing for my theater room.
@neptuneaudiospace
@neptuneaudiospace Год назад
We understand the safety concerns that folks have with these materials. But you should be good as long as you use a fabric like Duck Canvas. You're definitely not going to breathe in any loose particles as long as your panels stay hung on the wall without being shaken. Of course, no one's gonna go around shaking those things out intentionally. If you're still doubting the safety and want to make extra sure, you could add a thin membrane/plastic wrap before you wrap it with any fabric. This will guarantee safety 100%! Hope this helps!

I wrapped the rock wool in my panels in a thin plastic foil. They still work perfectly fine as absorbers. That was probably overkill, though, because as long as you don't play around with your absorbers all the time, rock wool doesn't just spontaneously blast fibers into the air. If you want to be completely sure, use sheep wool. Definitely _do not_ skip acoustic panels in your theater room. if you do that, half of the money you spend on speakers is basically down the drain.
@pillmuncher67
@pillmuncher67 Год назад
You need to find a wrapping material that lets the air through nut not the fibers. I used Gartenvlies, as it's called in German. I don't really know the English word, but Google thinks it might be called Vylene. It's not very tear-resistant, so you probably need to wrap it again in some sturdier material. Burlap comes to mind.

As i understand it correctly, using a carpet instead of fabric would lead to less efficient absorption? I used it in the past and the acoustic panels covered with carpet worked alright, i'm just wondering if it could be more efficent.
@neptuneaudiospace
@neptuneaudiospace 2 месяца назад
It all depends on the type of carpet material you're using, its mass, and porosity or transparency. If it is adequately transparent for sound passage, then it would work well without overkilling the room sound or underutilizing the core material.

Great video and nice jig. I have been thinking of using rigid foam board insulation as a frame. Its light weight and the panels would be easy to put up and take down. What are your thoughts about foam board?
@nicgee1737
@nicgee1737 Год назад
@@neptuneaudiospace I checked out your site and I liked your way of cutting out a hole in the foam board and stuffing the insulation inside. Foam boards at Home Depot are 1'' or 2'' thick, so you may need to double up and that may get a little expensive. I was thinking of ripping 3-4'' wide sections and gluing them together like a traditional sound absorber is made. You may get two or more panels that way.
@neptuneaudiospace
@neptuneaudiospace Год назад
Absolutely, doing it the way we recommended will build up expenses. So cutting out wide sections like you said will work perfectly fine! That way, you get more for less money. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. It's such a cool idea!

@swaffstudios
@swaffstudios Год назад
Use 1x6 as the frames and they can stand upright on their own on the floor- no need to hang them on the wall. Also, if you fill the inside with 4" thick insulation up against the front of the 1x6, the leftover air gap between the insulation and the back of the panel will give you some extra low frequency absorption That's what I did and mine are all about 6 ft tall and haven't fallen in 10 years.

Hi, I’m planing to do some absorbers with with wood frame and acoustic rockwool inside. You say the fabriv has to be breathable to let the sound pass, but I’m afraid it will also let particles of rockwool pass trough and then we will have them in the studio?
@neptuneaudiospace
@neptuneaudiospace 10 месяцев назад
You can add a thin layer of plastic wrap between the rockwool and the fabric. This will help keep any loose particles trapped. The only thing is the plastic wrap will reflect some of the higher frequencies which isn't a big deal in most cases. You also have the option of Recycle cotton material which is 100% safe and ECO friendly. You don't need to use plastic wraps for cotton.

@danielortizdecaracas Год назад
why do you not glue the four corners? just only screws?
@neptuneaudiospace
@neptuneaudiospace Год назад
We don't feel the crucial need to do so at times, since we're gluing crossbars to those areas anyway. Adding glue to the corners would then be optional, as the glued crossbars already contribute tremendously to the overall strength. But if you’re not going to be adding crossbars and brackets to the corners, then it would be necessary to add glue on the corners, even though your frame strength still wouldn't be anywhere near the strength that crossbars provide.

Can I just staple insulation to the wall? And do I leave the chrome foil against the wall or showing. Got it free after they built the house down the street. The pink stuff. R30 whatever that means.
@neptuneaudiospace
@neptuneaudiospace Год назад
Sounds like you're talking about Fiberglass insulation. We recommend that you wrap this insulation in fabric before hanging it on the wall. Even if you don't want to build a frame for it, at least wrap it in fabric, using glue. Hang with Velcro or Command Strips. You can leave the foil thing against the wall. The R-value means the thermal resistance. Really has nothing to do with the sound but the heat flow.
@roadracer517
@roadracer517 Год назад
@NepTune Audio If sound absorption works by converting sound wave energy into heat I would suspect R value has some significance.
@neptuneaudiospace
@neptuneaudiospace Год назад
Yes, and while that is true, the R-value does not necessarily translate to better sound absorption. But rather after the sound is converted to heat, how much is the material able to regulate heat/cold flow through the seasons. Home builders look out for R-values while audiophiles look out for NRC values. Hope this helps clarify

Technically, that would still be considered an absorber. But if the foam blocks have high density and are rigid, and are placed at random/ mathematical patterns, they would work as an absorption/diffusion panel
