​@neptuneaudiospace Curious, I don't have access to most of these tools (although I have a friend with a drill and a staple gun) but can't you find/use a place like home depot to cut the wood?

@justingriffin36 Yes, some of these stores have these power tools, and they do give access to customers for use. So you can definitely do that.

Great tutorial. Any specifications on what kinds of materials make good absorptive material?
@neptuneaudiospace
@neptuneaudiospace 10 ай бұрын
Thanks for your comment! There are various types and brands of absorption materials out there. They all perform well and only with slight differences here and there in their performances. If you need a great performance at an affordable price, Rockwool Insulation is the best option. Recycled Cotton and Sheepwool Insulation are awesome at performance but they are not the most affordable, and they are not easily found on the market, unlike Rockwool which is widely available anywhere. You can find Rockwool at your local Lowes or Home Depot store. This is why Rockwool might be considered the best for both price and quality performance, though in terms of safety, Rockwool may not be the safest material ever. But much safer than Fiberglass at least.

There are several other ways you could make similar-looking bass traps without using a table saw. We will eventually put some videos together showing how to do this using some really simple tools.

A lot of trigonometry when you can just use take the corner of the room is 90 degrees. Super strong box when it is just holding rock wool. Making a thinner box or just a wrapped rockwool pillow would be just as good.
@vikassm
@vikassm 2 ай бұрын
True that! That box is almost good enough to be turned into a satellite speaker on its own. Hmmm...... Can also stuff various lengths of bags with acoustic material and hang it from a protruding hook on the wall, or even from the roof, "Boxing" bag style 😂 This way, installation becomes super easy (Or difficult depending on your room construction)

Your videos are incredibly well made. Thank you! I would however like to say that the panels and this bass trap that you showcase are not really deep enough to do any real absorption in the low frequencies. The thicker, the better!
@neptuneaudiospace
@neptuneaudiospace 11 ай бұрын
Thanks for your comment! We only used this as an example to show how these are built. Obviously, we'd expect anyone looking to DIY to build according to their space requirements. Every type of room has different needs, which in most cases, you'll need basstraps deeper than the sample used in this video. Maybe this can actually be another topic for another day to talk about how to treat different types of rooms.

Why do you close the back? Do you not let the back be open to let sound go behind the panel into an open space and then it tries to come back? Like the air gap? I'm asking. Not. Arguing or disagreeing.
@neptuneaudiospace
@neptuneaudiospace 8 ай бұрын
We did close the back for safety reasons; to keep the insulation from falling out too much. We did mention in the video that it is optional. You may leave the back open if you prefer.

That's the most overbuilt insulation holder I've ever seen. Glue and finishing nails to let the glue dry would have been just fine.. you're not building a subwoofer enclosure.

Great tutorial for a professional carpenter I suppose. By far, the most complicated and difficult process video for a schmuck like me that I've seen. Good video, great skill and craftsmanship and desire to be helpful - but absolutely wrong title. Try "DIY Bass traps for the skilled and well resourced craftsman with lots of time on their hands". But dman they look great! You should sell them.

Nice tutorial, but this tutorial works only if you have all the tools. A workshop like this is more expensive than buying a couple of bass traps.

Making a fancy jig and clamping the triangular end pieces is a waste of time if you are gluing and screwing. The screws will provide MORE than enough clamping force needed as glue dries That said, while nice, this design is quite a bit overkill as you don't really need back walls for a corner basstrap - the actual walls of the room will suffice.All this does is take away from the amount of actual acoustic material you can use in the trap given the front face dimension. Quite a bit actually.

Bass traps should never be enclosed like that you want the sound traveling through the trap entirely, hitting the wall behind and traveling back through.

question, are bass traps not supposed to have an air gap built in? Would it make sense to halve the size of the insulation wedges being placed in these enclosures?
@neptuneaudiospace
@neptuneaudiospace 5 ай бұрын
Yes, it is great to give room for airflow on both sides and maybe a little air gap behind. We might make a video on this eventually.

CORNERS ??? Bass is everywhere! You want it traveling from speaker to you ears only. Not reflected from any other surface. How much % of a room is "corner". How far from "fold" is still a "corner". 1 cm, 1 dm, 1 meter ??? Bass trap in corner is stupidity. Especially that small "waste of time" stuffed with stone wool. You really need to cover area - in pairs. And still wool will dampen higher frequencies NOT bass. Who really cares if there is some "bass" in the corner, until it does not reach your ears. It is funny seeing people stuffing wool in corners and they think they improved something. They think "bass" is in the corner just because it happens they hear it double reflected if they stand in corner. But they do not listed music standing in the corners, right. They should control reflections and frequency response from the place where they LISTEN ... and than seek the problematic surface. Attention to word "surface", since corner is a "spot", or "line" only. Imagine the wavelength of a sound wave at 85 Hz is 4 meters, when you will cut that MDF next time down to 25 centimeters, and calculate how little to no significance that "bass" trap has to low frequencies. LOL

so many great craftsman tips, but such a terrible bass trap design. what's that little thing going to do? it might get down to 1500 hz. broadband bass traps are especially terrible for small rooms (your room). look at Helmholtz resonators and find videos from old engineers

The little thing is nothing but just a sample for the tutorial. It's a sample used to show how it's built. We never and won't recommend that folks should build to the same miniature size. Everyone should feel free to build to their desired dimensions according to their room needs.

Yeah you're definitely supposed to use your finishing nails or more appropriately brad nails when you are assembling the two corners together. the whole point of the brad nails for finishing nails in your case is to hold the wood together until the glue dries.... 🫣
