Foam Studio Soundproofing

What is the best way to build a cheap recording booth?

Q: This is purely for vocal recording. I was thinking about building a plywood booth in my basebent. Insulating the ceiling and putting blankets off of the walls. I just really don’t have the money for studio foam. But I want to make it as soundproofed as possible so I can record late without waking roomates. Hence a booth instead of the room itself.

SE Electronics Project Studio Reflection Filter $199

The Project Studio RF uses the same basic design as the Pro version, and while it can never be fully as effective as its more expensive big brother, it easily ouut performs copies and for project studio use is just the job. The metal frame is lined with the same patented polyester fiberboard as the Pro version uses for its outer layer. This material has extremely good acoustic absorption properties; much better than simple foam products. This is then further lined with a high density ‘crystal’ foam with curved undulations rather the cheaper and less effective ribbed, medium density foams that are widely used by other companies.
