DIY | Recording Vocal Booth Tutorial for Under $100

Музыка

Here is how I made a Recording Vocal Booth for Under $100!
(Apologies for the wonky audio. There are detailed instructions below so you don't miss anything!)
_________
For cutting the PVC, you will need a hacksaw, seven 10ft PVC pipes, measuring tape, a pencil/marker, and a mask.
Wear your mask to prevent from inhaling the PVC dust, and take two of the 10ft poles, measure to 5ft (in half), and cut.
Take the rest of the poles, measure 4ft, and then cut another 4ft out of the excess (out of each of these five 10ft poles, you will get two 4ft poles and one 2ft pole).
You should end up with four 5ft poles, ten 4ft poles, and four 2ft poles.
Here are the rest of the supplies:
10 ft PVC Pipes: www.lowes.com/pd/Charlotte-Pi...
Elbow PVC Fittings: www.lowes.com/pd/LASCO-1-in-x...
Tee PVC Fittings: www.lowes.com/pd/LASCO-1-in-x...
Acoustic Foam: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01...
Moving Blankets: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07...

    That’s a nice and simple build. I like it. I have been mulling this build over in my mind for a few years and today, I decided to finally do it. Thanks to a friend who basically had the frame I needed (metal piping). All I have to get is the blankets and soundproof foam. I will do a slight variation to the build by mounting plywood in the open spaces of the piping and attach soundproof foam to that. Question for you? Do you have a shelf to set an iPad/iPhone or your lyrics on!? Thanks for your video…

    @@CaseyTylerCovers Good morning Casey. The blankets you bought are very thin aren't they? Do they absorb enough of the reverb sound of the room? My living room has a lot of reverb and because one person says I need the professional blankets that are high in price and another person says I need thicker blankets because the thin ones don't really absorb anything - love to hear your experience with yours. I am a opera singer, so I not really want a fully closed booth where all sound boomy, the vocal still have to sound alive. Hope you can share with me your idea on the blankets and what your results are with the thin ones you use,,Thanks
