What specific materials do i need to soundproof my home recording studio?

Beyond that, I have heard of lots of creative ways to record. I've known people to use closets (full of clothes) as vocal booths. The bathroom is excellent for recording electric guitars because of the roomy sound. Full basements are naturally soundproof (except to the upstairs rooms). Don't try egg cartons - they don't work. Staggered random layers of wood is effective for cutting standing waves. Stacked cardboard works also, but then you have a fire hazard. Stay away from materials that are fire hazards. The list could go on. Personally I doubled up on my outside walls, using Hardirock on the outside layer of my studio. I have used office panels to absorb sounds inside the studio. You can usually find those at military or government surplus places and used office furniture stores (sometimes even at yard sales). Those do an excellent job. It's all kind of hit or miss though. Good luck and have fun, but don't expect it to sound like the pro studios. Those guys spend hundreds of thousands on soundproofing. insert foam inbetween the walls to absorb the sound waves also carpet your walls to deaden the sound there to begin with There are alot of manufactures out there but this company is a place to start.
