I then fastned the Studiofoam to the rockwool and hung each unit on chains. The panels on the right side and in the rear of the control room are hung within the window recesses so as not to protrude out into the room yet still hang free from the walls. Also, beneath the rear panel it a futon spaced a bit off the wall. There's a small hammock-like storage space underneath it that I filled with pillows & blankets to help with absorption. Makes a fine sofa too!
I'm following this post with another to detail the overhead panels.... |
They look really good.
I have some of the same Auralex foam as yourself. I also have been thinking of using them as a front to some traps for the early reflections.
What confuses me is the being able to breath through the covering material thing!!! I am guessing that the Auralex foam will absorb the mid and highs (as well as maybe some dissipation because of the design) and then the rockwool will deal with the bass. The more rockwool, the lower the bass absorption.
Have I got this right or am I talking bol@@*s?
Would love to here from the experts on this.
