Noise Control

Hello Slutz!

Just a quick question!

I have recently taken over the running of a small community based studio that is attached to a publicly used community centre. Recently we have started to get more and more commercial interest therefore we have received a few complaints about the level of sound leaking from the live room into the meeting hall, via the corridor (shown in the plan and layout attached.)

SO! We have been asked to either stop tracking (and earning) during certain times or control the noise via constructing a wall in the corridor just before the door to the toilet, on the right hand wall of the corridor.

Would you guys recommend we build a 2 skinned wall filled between with Fiberglass wool? And would you recommend using a timber and plaster construction or a concrete block construction, i say this as i was lead to believe that added mass will help to reduce sound transmission.

Like I said, a quick one hahaha. Thanks in advance for any help offered

Joe.
