DIY Bass Traps: Home Studio Room Acoustics

[@dglassb]

this guy is really good but 1.5 playback speed is a must

[@majorlaser4801]

i had it on 1.5 as my default but it still seemed too slow!

[@abduhridho]

1.25 is sweet spot for me

[@homeofstone62]

1.5 is perfect, thank u

[@Jaburu]

I use 1.5 on normal guys. but this guy becomes normal at 1.5 lol. So 2.0 is best

[@HandbrakeBiscuit]

I'm watching at 0.25 because I'm a slow learner...

[@scottdotjazzman]

Protip: For fabric other than fleece, such as burlap or muslin, don't tack the fabric at the corners first. Tack it across the center instead, then work towards the corners. This will make sure you don't have any bunching along the edges while maintaining a clean surface.

[@necrodogs]

You really want to cover the invisible sides of the trap as well. And just maybe arrange for an air gap behind them. I found that the gaps actually helps a lot. The trap won't go lower in frequency but it will attenuate more in the frequency range it covers. Thanks for the video, almost 4 years after the fact :)

[@LooseOrangeJuice]

I think they actually will attenuate lower frequencies, depending on how large the gap is. At least that what I found when researching this topic. Either way, a gap is definitely advisable because you're effectively allowing the air to permeate into an open space, before rebounding back into the trap. This is better than if the insulation is flush against the wall, in which case you're only getting the benefit of reduced pressure at the boundary, not the benefit of reduced velocity at that area as well, which you do get when there's a gap.

[@DeAdler_13]

[@travis.gooden]

@@laurabrown6073 An even better idea is 4 ft thick Bass Trap curtains. Grandma won't be able to open them but that's fine.

[@spudpud-T67]

duuude

[@motionhouse2522]

Thanks for the tut, fairly in-depth. But for the love of Larry, pls demo safe shop practices: wear a dust/fibre mask and long sleeves when handling rockwall, never ever ever ever reach over a table saw while cutting (!), and while your at it, put some wood or foam padding on a concrete floor to kneel on. My aged back and knees are still recovering after watching that segment. Plus, as someone also pointed out, an air gap = to depth of material is likely to improve acoustic performance. That said, those are fairly nice looking bass traps and the stackable approach is pure bueno :)

[@nikkomorgan]

One of the best videos on this subject I've found yet.

[@ToddAudio]

Thank you!

[@shamanbeartwo3819]

I work with rockwool a lot in my garden and I would strongly suggest wearing a mask and gloves. Yeah, yeah, yeah, we are all tough guys and don't need no stinking saw guards or masks but that first time I used rockwool without gloves, I spent the rest of the night with hands that felt like they were full of tiny splinters. Make sure if you do make your own panels that you wrap the wool completely on all sides especially if you have children, old folks, or pets in the home. Dear Todd - I love that you use something other than the standard red or black fabric that every panel seems to be made with.

[@ToddAudio]

Thanks so much for the feedback! Haha I enjoy the variety I guess. I don't have a ton of space in the room I'm in now either so the lighter panels make it feel more open. Have a good night!

[@alexrichardson6461]

Alex / Australia Thank you so much for your video. I had just bought some expensive (for me) speakers, but was disappointed with the result. However, I built your traps to only halfway up the ceiling for domestic reasons, and then packed them with some spare limp fiberglass wool I had, to the density roughly near your rock-wool. The sound is now superb!!!!!!! Lovely firm bass and such beautiful detail in the music. And video is so much fun to watch too. Good on you Todd.

[@ToddAudio]

Thank you Alex! I'm so glad to hear they worked out for you! It is amazing what something like this can do to clean up the sound and make a nice set of speakers really shine!

[@Johnws26]

"For domestic reasons"... I laughed!

Thanks a lot. You've solved my 45 degree question for the 2 outer corners and the inner corner. Now I'm set.

[@robbabcock_]

Nice work! Ethan is indeed an amazing resource and a very friendly and helpful guy. He's forgotten more about acoustics than a lot of his competitors know.

[@ToddAudio]

Thank you! Agreed! I've seen many of his forum posts and articles. He also has some interesting videos on his KZbin channel, including one I really liked where he shows his home theater acoustic setup! I appreciate the feedback, and have a good week!

[@kurtfoster3640]

Ethan is a charlatan who's ONLY involvement in audio has been hawking ugly absorbents to an uneducated client base. he didn't even know what diffusion is until i mentioned it to him. then he was all over it. anytime someone name drops Ethan's name i know they are idiots.

[@studiosingyourstyle]

The stackable part is straight genius! I just prepared tonight to build one in the corner so I didn’t need to move it. I’m changing directions after watching this.

[@studiosingyourstyle]

Hey, do you know how people hang the floating panels from the wall? Like what is the hardware I’ve been searching for a few days. Home Depot and Lowe’s workers don’t really have any ideas.

[@studiosingyourstyle]

I’m wondering why some people will do bass traps all the way from the floor up to the ceiling? Do you know what the benefit would be taking a beast trap all the way up to the ceiling?

[@shellyquest007]

Thanks Homie... years later you're my hero!! :)

[@ToddAudio]

No problem! Thanks for watching!

[@monkified1989]

Please be careful when using a table saw without the guide. You did a good job at telling people to be careful, however this is one of the most dangerous ways to use the tool. Great bass trap! I may do this pretty soon.

[@ToddAudio]

Thank you and great advice! I appreciate the consideration and reiteration because you can never be too careful!

[@cavebeastdemon3631]

Yah, you should have gotten a miter gauge with your table saw. Free handing wood one a table saw will result in wood being thrown at you at the speed of a bullet. Take it from a person with practical experience!

[@Kecky0]

Thanks for the help. Easiest follow along I have seen. Snapped together like legos.

[@GlassicGamer]

Great tutorial! If you use fiberglass screen mesh around the whole thing it will get rid of the lumpyness on the front and keep the insulation in the back from coming out.

[@ToddAudio]

+Glassic Gamer great tip! And thank you!

[@NKWTI]

I still have a foldable vocal mobile booth from years and years ago that Ethan made with his company RealTraps and it is so excellent for voice over in a semi-treated or even untreated room, but do a little work yourself and then throw this booth into the mix = clean vocals to mix. Wonderful products.

Nice one. I'll make one myself after seeing your video. One tip is using a Dacron fabric before the finishing fabric. It will make it look smoother.

[@ToddAudio]

That's a good idea! Thanks! Just make sure it is a breathable fabric. A rule of thumb is you should be able to cover your eyes and still see light through it.

[@UDoIt2]

I'm working on a music studio for my son now. I ripped all of the walls out so I can insulate the walls to sound proof as much as I can. I'll be putting all of this on my channel. I will let you know when I'm done and after I build these traps you document. I just subbed.

[@ToddAudio]

That's awesome, I bet he will be super excited! Roxul Safe n' Sound is a good choice for soundproofing as well. Have you thought about leaving the drywall off after insulating and just covering it with fabric so you still get the absorption in the room to cancel out the reverberations? Although, the room would probably be really dead sounding.. except that could be a good thing for home recording depending out the setup and what he is doing. Thanks for letting me know you will be building these. Awesome to hear when something I posted helps someone else out! I look forward to checking out your studio videos on your channel!

[@fescolfaro]

The table saw is the number one finger chopper of all wood working equipment, bar none.

[@nickthomas89]

Todd, that was awesome! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

[@ToddAudio]

No problem Nick! Thank you, and hope you found the video helpful!

[@chewieone1064]

Nice tutorial! I think i may build a couple of those, but i would wrap the 3 sides in foil before attaching the fabric. (Agree on those safety concerns many people have here, i have been a carpenter myself, and a finger may be cut badly much quicker than you can react. Though that little saw you are using is unlikely to kick back. You gotta be more careful when using real powerful machines though.)

[@ianaintsaying1625]

[@petethegreekre]

If you're not a champion at cutting wood with a table saw or any circular type saw, get them pre-cut. Those things will come back and bite you unexpectedly! Also I would highly recommend leaving an air gap between the trap and wall. Same goes for acoustic panels. Works a lot better at swallowing the bass. Not criticizing your great work, just giving some tips. Good work, happy listening.

[@skullsworn9194]

how thick of an air gap would you recommend? 2 inches?

[@petethegreekre]

@@skullsworn9194 No more than the actual size of your panel. Example: If a panel is 100mm (4") than the air gap behind the panel should not exceed 100mm(4"). Here's a YT link to a guy who studied this stuff. kzbin.info/door/57auUfJlTvIvW79pom_i1g

[@christopherkent3294]

holy crap! never cut anything on a table saw like that!!! super dangerous. Ive been a carpenter for over 20 years and I would never even think of cutting anything like that. That could bind on the saw and pull your hand right into the saw. Other than that, good vid!

[@ToddAudio]

+Christopher Kent haha thank you! Yes I have had several comments warning of this. I might add more precautions to the description about what to do different from what I did when using th saw. Thanks!

[@christopherkent3294]

Might be a good idea. Didn't want to post a negative on your video, just made me nervous. I'm building a small practice room/recording studio. Thanks for the vid!

[@LifeOnHoth]

:D - and as a carpenter for 20 years, you have never done this? hundreds of times maybe? :). Of course it's not the safe way to use a table saw - but there are limits to how super careful you need to be. Sometimes it is just more practical to saw things freehand. Every carpenter knows this :). No use denying that :D But you gotta be very aware of what you do when freehand sawing like this, and from what I can see in the video, mr. Todd Audio have no problems with this. But hey, safety police are always lurking around these kinda videos hehe. Don't get me wrong - it is not safe, but it most certainly isn't as dangerous as many want it to be. From the way he handles the saw and wood, there is no chance that things just fly off in the wrong direction out of control. It might bite a bit, but not out of control. best regards from a long time furniture maker that also knows his way around table saws.

[@christopherkent3294]

No, I dont do this!!! That is what band saws, routers, etc, are for. Use the right tool for the job. When I started in carpentry, I had a boss that would have kicked my ass if I did this...and now, I would never let any of my employees do this!!!! Very stupid and very dangerous. DON'T DO IT! I dont want anyone to think in any way this is something they should try or might get away with. This is how you loose fingers. Ive seen some very bloody injuries on the job site from guys who "didnt like to listen". Ask any REAL wood worker or carpenter, they will tel you the same.

Thanks Todd, You made everything easy, cheaper and it took care of my bass problem, thumps up

[@ToddAudio]

Great to hear! Thank you. One person commented recently that people have had even more success by putting a layer of craft paper on the front. It should help reflect some of the higher freqs to keep the room sound a bit more live and apparently also helps flex and absorb the really low end a little better. Im pretty happy with it already but it is worth a try I think. Easy mod for the price of craft paper.. and easy to remove if I don't like it. Haha thought I'd share the tip. If you end up trying it first and have any luck let me know! Thanks!

[@ToddAudio]

+Lewis Amoroso hello, thank you! Yes it is porous and broad band. It will absorb a broad range of frequencies and not just bass, unless you were to make modifications to reflect higher frequencies, which I haven't tried myself. In my experience they tighten up the bass a great deal and also deaden the room sound.. some people prefer a dead room for mixing while others still like some reflections.

[@Mrverlie1]

very elegant design... an air gap between the trap and the wall would be very helpful

[@ToddAudio]

Thank you! I might try that sometime.. it will require a little more space but I think I could pull it off.. Given the amount of space I used (without adding more distance outward from the corner), what I researched seems to show it varies based on the material, and that with Roxul Safe N' Sound, in this amount of space, it is best to go all the way filled in. However, once it reaches a certain distance from the wall then the air gap was better.. or on the other hand if you wanted to use less material, an air gap is better than pushing everything in closer to the wall, if that makes sense. It varies depending on the material used. I described this in a bit more detail in response to Uncle Benja's comment below. However, with these DIY projects there is definitely some variance in opinions and results (it can be hard to find info on the subject and examples outside of forums and posts from other do-it-yourselfers), so sometimes the best way might be just to try it! I do think it is likely that if I took this exact design and moved it out a bit further to create an air gap you might be right! Thanks for the feedback!

[@lgmnowkondo938]

air gap is not beneficial....the best corner traps fill the entire corner. Perhaps a different material would help bass frequencies a bit more here...but I suspect this is a solid absorber.

With a touch of Woody Harrelson.

[@SpeakerBuilder]

OMG, ALWAYS use a guide when cutting wood on a table saw, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER run the material through the saw with two hands as shown here, as the blade can catch the wood and kick it back in your face, causing serious injury, standard practice is to use the miter guide that comes with every table saw, and sets in the grooves of the table, using such a guide will assure a square cut (assuming the guide is set square), and assures no kickback. For cuts along the long length of material, use the fence also provided with every table saw. Other than that, I really like the idea of building triangle shaped frames for bass traps and then just stacking them, may do that myself in place of my wall mounted traps that don't work that well, the other advantage of this design is the deeper level of material that helps trap the low frequencies, great idea.

[@vadimkogan473]

He was very close to finished his guitar career forever:)

[@andrewhigdon8346]

Did you ever consider adding a proper extension to the outlet which would give you the same options or more for power placement and remove the compromise of having to leave that outlet exposed. Either get a high quality power strip with a 90 degree plug and build over that, leaving the strip exposed for even more versatile use. Don’t be confined by where “plugs” are. Add to them and place the “plugs where you can better use them, whether they are 120 volt, speaker cable jacks, xlr jacks, 1/4”, whatever. Compromises are just solutions waiting to be found.

I've read that it is better to leave some air at the back instead of completely filling the bass trap.

I think you are right. I've heard that too. I've actually moved into a smaller room now and the panels are propped up againts the wall with an air gap instead of mounted on the wall... but there is not really any precision. It just happens to be the way I put them. I think it might still make a difference but I haven't a/b tested it or anything.

Don’t let em beat ya up too bad. Though there are much better ways to cut lumber , you did remove the fence , greatly reducing chances of binding. But next time use a miter saw.

[@ToddAudio]

Thanks. I didn't have a miter saw but can see where it would help if big enough to cut the traingles. With what I have I did make sure to keep the blade only as high as needed and bought a brand new blade specifically for this purpose. Just in case anything did happen I made sure there was a safe path to pull the plug and the first thought on my mind was me being consious of where my hands are and if anything goes wrong to get away and unplug. I obviously didn't realize there would be this many concerns but I might be able to add a warning tag or something to pop up in the video.

Trappin da base!

[@ToddAudio]

Haha yes indeed!

Great video ! You sound a bit like Randy Blythe from the band LAMB OF GOD (but you have a higher-pitched voice), specially during the voiceovers.

[@ToddAudio]

Haha thanks for watching!

Pro tip: Don't google real traps at work without an adult content filter.

I was wondering what could be so bad in that google search so I tried. I had to get 7 PAGES through google until I saw what you were talking about. Until that point, it was all bass traps, real traps vs gik, etc. The fact I had to get 7 pages to see what you obviously got on the first page, maybe says something about the content you watch online?
