Progress Update - Panels Are Finished!
🕑 Added 2021-10-15 23:58:25 +0000 UTCYep, all the acoustic panels are built, filled, and beautifully covered!
Now all that's left is mounting them to my studio walls, which is trickier than it sounds; it's not at all like hanging a mirror or picture frame. In a nutshell, air must be able to move freely behind each panel to work correctly. Not only that but each one of these is ~30 lbs (~14kg). Here's an example panel:
I'm using metal french cleats and 2x2 furring strips on the wall with toggle bolts in drywall and heavy-duty screws into the studs on the top and bottom of each panel. In layman's terms, this bitch is secure AF!
Now, if you're curious about acoustic panels and how they impact the sound within a recording studio, here's a youtube video testing their effectiveness. Hear the impact for yourself. π

I hope to have all my panels mounted and the studio finished by the end of October. I'll make another announcement when that happens. π
