tumpak sa gypsum bro

yan ang pang soundproofing talaga. pero medyo mahirap ilagay. dalawang layer dapat at maayos ang pagkadikit. yung second layer gypsum board dapat sa gitna ng joints ang patong.

how about styrofoam?

closed-cell yan pero para sa akin, hindi praktikal kasi kelangan makapal na makapal para maging effective.

para madali, hollow blocks nalang gamitin mo. walang bintana ang kwarto at dapat parang "waterproof" na hindi sisingaw (leak) ang sound palabas ng kwarto. pati ang pinto pag sinarado, kailangan walang cracks o openings kung saan pwede sumingaw ang sound. maganda rin ang "room within a room" concept na parang doble ang wall/ceiling/floor para siguradong hindi tatagos ang sound. ito ang alam kong pinaka madali at murang paraan mag soundproof ng kwarto. tunay na akustik engineer ang nagturo nito sa akin.

hope this helps.

yun na!

We supply ROCKWOOL and FIBERGLASS, both are good in soundproofing
and Acoustics. They are also "FIRE RETARDANT" unlike foams and egg trays.

They are both very good for blocking and absorbing sounds.

Acoustic treatments.

We also supply Gypsum Boards and Fiber Cement Boards. "FIRE PROOF"
also and much cheaper compared to plywoods and other kind of woods.

Just let us know if you need this materials and we will give you our best offer.

Thank you very much.

ei help..
san sa tingin nyo mas maganda ilagay yung drums? (mas mahina ang maririnig sa labas.)

yung harapan ng bahay namin ay ung street, katabi sa left ay ginagawang bahay, at sa right naman ay may isang bahay na katabi (hindi firewall to firewall).

yung likod namin ay vacant lot, sa left ung ginagawang bahay at sa right yung tapos na..

room A. (nasa right sight ng likod, katabi nung tapos na bahay)
mas malaki ng mga 2-4 sqm kaysa sa B, may 2 windows, nasa likod ng bahay.

room B. (nasa harap, katabi nung ginagawa na bahay (firewall to firewall)
mas maliit, may 1 window, merong loft..

sa harapan nga pala ng bahay namin ay isang basketball court, kaya medyo maingay pag hapon..

huwag styrofoam. delikado, madaling masunog yan. gumamit ka nalang ng fiber cement boards at ipalaman mo ng fiberglass.

Drummers, please describe the location/room for your kits (drumset/amps etc). Your music room specifically..
*This could provide ideas for someone who wants to invest on those kits but being bothered by the location to put those..

Also, I would like to have an advise on this one, especially on drummers who have his set/kit at home.
I'm planning to buy a drumset, but the problem is the room for it.
My plan is to transfer to an apartment suitable for someone who wants to bang his kit (I mean those drums) everyday.
What kind of room? Where? Any conventional sound absorber that would not trigger eviction if seen by big brother or the owner of the apartment? How about the penthouse

? Angry neighbors

?
Thanks in advance..

pmack · « **Reply #37 on:** November 09, 2006, 07:59:58 PM »

ako cheap lang "sound absorber" ko if you can call it that.
hehehe....
uratex lang. cushion yun dati sa kama eh wala nang natutulog sa kama na yun kaya kinuha ko muna. dinikit ko sa wall behind my kit using wires and nails. hehehe.. ok naman siya, kasi dati pansin ko pag pumapalo ako may konting echo ako naririnig. ngayon wala na.

Angry neighbors ?

if you do move to an apartment, be considerate that's all. schedule your playing time when you know your neighbors are fully up and about. no playing past 9pm or before 9am, sometimes dont even play during siesta time. minimize noise pollution to by playing rudiments on practice pads or pillows and not on the drums themselves.

since im an office boy who can only practice at night, i make it appoint that i play when game ka na ba starts and stop when it does. my neighbors dont care about kris so they dont mind me blasting away but id get knocks on the door when the telenovelas start

Thanks pmack/peeves24..

pmack, I'm assuming that your kit is in your own room.. while peeves' in their sala/receiving area..
So, as long as I can suppress the sound/noise from the inside, the location won't be a problem..
How about Egg Trays? or the cork-type pads? Are they effective?
How about "GameKaNaBa-Timing-Strategy" as peeves24 stated earlier?

pmack · « **Reply #40 on:** November 10, 2006, 07:01:05 PM »

i really cant comment on egg trays or cork-type pads kasi i havent used them. maraming topics about sa mga studio materials sa Music Technology & Pro Audio section ng munting forum natin.

yes, my drums are inside my own room.
i kiss it before going to bed...

nung wala pa yung misis at baby ko. nasa kwarto ko yung drums at mga band equipments.. pero ngayon may baby na di na pwede sa kwarto.. sa salas na lang sa 2nd floor.. kaso masyadong dinig na dinig buong street kaya may oras ang pag praktis ko ngayon

vincher · « **Reply #42 on:** November 11, 2006, 01:36:04 AM »

ako nasa 14x14 room yung drums ko. 2 nakaset up ( dito din nagtuturo si mar dizon kasi) acoustic boards ang nasa ceiling pos concrete wall with windows. di naman sensitive mga neighbors ko (3 kasi kaming mga musicians na tumira sa area namin), but i usually allow myself to play 10am-12noon then 2pm-7pm. pero may exceptions kunwari may banda na gusto magpractice inaabot ng 2am pero alalay lang kami sa tunog palagi.

kung lilipat ka, the best is hanap ka ng appartment na concrete ang walls nya.. from there madali and at least sound proof na siya.. pro-problemahin mo nalang mga pinto at bintana and ceiling.... i dont advise using egg trays.. ang effect lang usually ng egg tray is for sound diffusion.. it doesnt absorb.. you can use thick foam.. pero fire hazardous material to. you might want to try fiberglass or rockwool.. the best yun.. you can look up sa pro audio room.. hanapin mo thread dun about acoustic materials.. ill be posting soon my DIY acoustic sa studio.. i hope it could help..

smarty · « **Reply #44 on:** November 11, 2006, 11:34:43 AM »

add ko na rin kung apartment kunin mo, dapat concrete ung roof or roofdeck type sya. at least bintana na lang ang kelangan mong takpan.
