Over absorbing can make a room sound dull and lifeless, but it could very well be that you're absorbing at the wrong frequencies with too much thin absorption. This video will explore what makes a room sound dead and how to avoid it.

This is good advice. I've recorded drums in my home studio for ~ 15 years. I went down the path of blankets and carpet at one time and found that I had a harder time mixing the drum tracks. Then, after Hurricane Harvey in 2017, my studio was damaged and all the fabric-based treatments came out for a rebuild. I had the opportunity to hear overdampened, untreated and then balanced treatments "side by side." Overdampened was by far the worst, with bass out of control and an unnatural timbre hampering the drum sound. Untreated was kinda' cool, because it was huge, but then I had way too much cymbal/hi-hat bleed into close mics. The final setup used a bit less treatment than I expected, but most important, there is now a balance of bass absorption, mid absorption and some reflection. I can now make the drums sound huge and boomy or tight, crisp and present, depending upon how I compress, or with a few room mics. Just a moderate amount of treatment with the right balance makes a big difference in the sound.

Thanks for saying that! I am loving hearing about how you were able to compare the different sounds depending on the treatment strategy used, and can truly attest to the quality of having the right mix of treatments.

I had GK design my room about 9 years ago.. It's room is great for mixing and mastering. It's nearly dead. I've tried everything but can't get a decent recording of my acoustic. Also, I've used large and small diaphragm mics, different locations. Any ideas? I've thought about buying one of those Zoom recorders and just record my guitar in my garage and fly that back into my project.

I have kind of the same problem - bought quite a few GIK panels used (242s, 2A alphas and 2 Monster Bass traps) and they work great on the room - no more flutter echo, much drier and more transparent sound. However, the results when recording acoustic guitar are - lets just say not so great. I made some mistakes at placement (ignoring the ceiling and putting too much stuff on one wall) which will be adressed, but I was underwhelmed. More holes to drill in the wall and ceiling I guess ...

You guys missing a huge opportunity We need videos to show people the whole process of someone measuring their rooms consult with you guys and buy their traps/diffusers and finally install them People need to see actual process From start to finish.

Funny enough, the German magazine Delamar did this with one of GIK's German Associates, Lukas Rimbach. Search for "Raumakustik Optimieren im Homestudio". It'll be in German, though.... :/

Thanks for the feedback, we always can use more examples of treated vs untreated rooms, and the entire process from "studs to studio", including the free acoustic advice. Stay tuned to our content, as we have done videos like this before. Do you have any rooms in particular you would be more interested to see than others?

@@GIKAcousticsLLC thanks gik I go for typical home studios …average to professional users. While everyone loves to hear untreated vs treated I think many people scare of committing to buy acoustic panels because they are scared if they can Install them or how their room will look like after they do. I think showing the whole process such as opening the traps from the box when they have arrive and showing the process of measuring to install the traps and of course then showing how dose the room sound now vs before will be great.

Great suggestion @Raz Tube, while we have bits and pieces of these, you're definitely onto something by have a single video showing all of these things. Thanks again for the feedback!

​@@GIKAcousticsLLC Hi GIK, can you make a video about the different fabric types of your bass traps and panels please? I see you offer both Camira Cara, Camira Lucia and Bondai fabrics, but I have no idea what their differences are or which type suits me :)
