so i´m wondering if these little micro particle bastards will be able to pass through the fabric and pollute our lungs during rehearsal and recordings?!
the fabric is as thick as standard t-shirt material.
so, do you think i need plastic bags, before wrapping them in fabric?
if yes, where can i get those plastic bags here? in different sizes and all quite big? or can i use sth else???
so: fabric enough?? any ideas? experiences?
thanks in advance guys |
I built 8 traps out of 703 a couple years ago... didn't wear a mask or goggles. Got that $hit all over my bare arms while covering them in burlap.
Worst reaction: My arms itched.
I wouldn't get too worried about it.
Bass traps work on the principle of turning sound energy into heat, which is how they absorb.
So unless you fluff all your bass traps like pillows when you walk into the studio everyday (not advised) I doubt you're going to provoke many particles into the air.
Have fun killing those peaks and nulls. It's worth it!
