New Basement Studio Build

[pkswally420]

What's up all? I've been trolling these threads for a few weeks now gathering different ideas for my upcoming studio build.





the back portion (horse shoe wall) is concrete block. I plan on using metal H studs against the block, pack the space with foam insulation and layer one sheet of 5/8" dry wall to cover.

The two built walls (actually several with the live room angles) will be framed with 6" metal studs. Insulated with safe'n'sound and 2 sheets of 5/8" drywall on each side for a nice heavy quadruple layered wall.

i have the pleasure of dealing with a low ceiling round 6'9" so my plan is to leave the live space open joist. here is my idea for treating it with mild isolation



so it'll be sub floor, followed by 5/8" d/w attached to the sub floor. packing in safe'n'sound 3-1/2"x16". next will be a little air space. about every 4' I'm gonna shoot a 4" finish nail cover the tips with gorilla glue, and within that 14" space between joists I'll place a 12" wide piece of 1/2" foam board. to lay flush with the bottom of the joists, which again, have 14" of space, I'm gonna construct out of 1x2 pieces of pine a 14"x(needed length) frames for the roxul rockboard 60 for absorption. using acoustic cloth to cover the roxul.

i think I've got everything pertinent listed. I'm curious about diffusion in both rooms. i'll be using two layers of rockboard 60 for bass traps.

in photo A: which shows the man glulam beam, i'm gonna need to pack out. I was thinking more pink insulation and wood blocking on both sides, sheathed with drywall.
