Thanks @david. You always do a great job but what struck me so much on this song was the complete comfort you showed. You were in command the full way through and it was evident on you. Really good.

I thought I would repost my info from the old forum. This includes sound clips to help show just how effective the sound treatment is — hint — it is NOT subtle.

I can get a little obsessive about my guitars and all that goes with it. Anyone here identify with this? For me right now it is sound quality of my music room. I realized I can’t get a good recording without making some improvements. In case anyone else is contemplating such an endeavor, I wanted to provide my results and say to you that it is WORTH IT !!!!

My music room is a small room, 10 foot ceilings and hardwood floors. Echo was a major problem, so much so that I think it was even changing pitch of the guitar when I recorded. That is the microphone was picking up the guitar and altered tones off the walls. Panels are expensive and honestly kind of ugly, so I decided to follow some online YouTube videos and made my own panels. I did not “strategically” place them in the room but because one purchase of the insulation makes so many panels, I had enough to just over-fill the room. Plus there were only so many places that had wall space.

This wall has 3 large panels and 2 small panels. The 3 large panels are covered in a rope weave room décor that I already owned.

This wall has 10 smaller panels added. We found small fabric pieces on sale at the fabric store.

I also added a floor rug and a upholstered chair into the room.

This is an audio clip of the untreated room and treated room.

Thanks TJ for sharing this at our 5/1/2021 Mayday! Mayday! theme night on SNL virtual open mic. You did great delivering such a horrible and depressing song topic. 😀

Thanks David for the feedback. The song is one that lends to being sung with feeling and emotion.

We missed you on Saturday night. I know you have some Beatles songs you could have contributed. Hope to catch up with you on a future Saturday night VOM.
