well here I am in the coming stop it and of course it's very Reaver because it's
all bare what I'm going to do is put some padding on the walls here and see
if we can make a vocal booth out of this now there's no planning going into this
I'm just gonna slap some stuff to the wall and and see what happens okay I'll
walk inside there's really nothing to it there's a carpet on the floor there got
my microphone stand ready to go shelf here and the rest is just bare walls I
do have a skylight up there though that's nice alright I've got a box full
of this foam stuff and like everything I buy the cheapest stuff I could find on
ebay so you know I don't really expect anything fantastic but I'm just going to
curious how much difference this will make compared to without it so I'll do a
recording first without this which will be very reverb me of course and then see
how it goes once I put this on that all the walls in there
now they come in this vacuum sealed package you can see it's proof thin so
we get one fresh out of here and that's 10 of them together they start off
really really thin but when they've been left out for a while and actually thick
enough of it so you can see the difference there
maybe so I'll just leave these out for a while
stacked up before I put them to the wall or maybe I won't
we'll see how impatient I am all right I've got a few of these out ready and
what I'm gonna do is I'm going to start at the top here just put them in
crisscross kind of thing and I'm just gonna use thumbtacks to stick them to
the wall all right there's one I'm not good nose here we need to go
okay I've run out of thumbtacks so I have to pop down on Jay get some more of
them but even with what I've done already
I just shut that there's already definite difference in the sound so I've
still got a lot bored to go the ceiling there on the back here back to the door
that isn't done anyway it's progressing nicely so once it's done I'll do a
recording and compared to how it sounded before of course also have to take a
break for the roast pork which of course is perfect again go through the subtext
here alright I finished off the main areas the ones that are going to use the
full tiles so the only bits I've got left now are all to fiddly bits that
I've got to cut out like along here without full tile size that'll take a
bit of time no doubt and it should be good when it's done right now finish
putting the sound tiles on there you can probably hear just just me walking in
here now I ran out of them for the door I wasn't going to stick them to the door
with thumbtacks I was just gonna put them on a sheet of paper or something
and string them down from the top but anyway alright now it's way way I'll put
them all around the walls here and on top of the shelf here they just sat
there i did the ceiling as well so i've got all of the sides done here including
down below here okay so looking back if i get down here you can see it's it's
pretty well done except for the door but that's how it is oh and that bit dear me
because I ran out of tiles I've put thumbtacks mostly on the four corners
some got an extra one in the middle there but for the most part it's just on
the four corners of the tiles you do go through a surprising amount of
thumbtacks so make sure you get plenty if you're doing this especially since a
lot of them seem to be missing half the thumbtack maybe that was just the
checkout chick stitching me up because I said something about a header but either
way get plenty of them because you're going to go through them
okay now that it's all finished I'll do another
according with the door shut and I'll see how that compares to how it sounded
before
Lord we in ávila Lord we
I cannot help so that's it that's my new vocal recording booth and trumpet
recording as well because that fits in here and all the recordings you heard
were done apart from this one here on the camera they're recording through
this microphone we're done on the Raspberry Pi we've Reaper which I've set
up with the multitrack mics even though I'm only using one for this so if you
didn't see how to do that I've done a video on how to set up a four track
recording setup on a Raspberry Pi or any Linux box really and so now have some
fun with some recording so yeah
