#1 – Pro Vocal Booth & Production Room For Cheap

DUBturbo presents: (Step By Step Instructions & Pics Below ) How to build your own sound booth and recording room for cheap. See step by step pics at: forums.nichechoppers.com This is a personal journal video as I convert two rooms in our new unit into acoustically treated recording and production rooms with a sound booth conversion in the closet. Soundtrack from: www.artofbeats.com Things you’ll need *Acoustical Foam – I used ebay – foamfactory – cost? 0 USD – which was enough to fill two rooms at 15×20, and two closets at 3×5 (we way overestimated but it’s better to have leftovers than have to re-order just a few pieces or run out before you finish your application). Get a consultation for your room from an acoustical pro so you know what thickness, size, texture, and type of foam is best suited for your needs. Get the spray glue your foam provider recommends or sells in-house. *Paint & all accessories – Get Latex or eggshell, NOT shiny/glossy. *Nails – if some of your foam starts to fall/peal/come off over time, use tiny 3/4″ nails to nail them into the wall without damaging the foam, and so you can hide the nail easily within the foam once it’s nailed into the wall. *Sheets: To treat your ceiling, you’ll want to hang sheets from the ceiling to the wall leaving a bow/bend in the middle, this is to dampen the noise an reflection from your ceiling. Feel free to add a few foam blocks to the ceiling as well. You’ll want to hang 2 sheets, going horizontally from where …

@qewconite Minium Rockwool…Really. So i can grow weed on my walls and have a sound booth in the same room.. How awesome. And since it needs to be a 10 x 10 i can do it legally in Humboldt. What a WIN!!!
when you bought your foam did you have to pay cross boarder duty fees and if so how much? thx!
even though i dont do it yu can actuallly build a vocal booth in a closet it does not matter what room as long as its properly insulated
VERY NICE HOME STUDIO YOU GOT THERE. FOAM FACTORY.GOTTA LOVE IT. I HAVE A VERY SMALL RECORDING STUDIO IN MY HOME AS WELL.AND I ALSO BOUGHT FOAM FROM THE FOAM FACTORY.IDK IF YOU HAD THIS PROBLEM,BUT THE GLUE U BUY FROM FOAM FACTORY ABSOLUTELY SUKSSSS.I HAD FOAM FALLING OF DURING THE NEXT 3 DAYS OF IT ALREDY BEING UP.SO I HAD TO PUNCH A LITTLE NAIL INTO EACH ONE.BUT THE FOAM WORKS AMAZING.NICE VID.IL POST A VIDEO RESPONSE OF MY STUDIO UPDATE SO U CAN TELL ME WAt u think.peace!!
@kking818
i heard that too!
Beautiful view, dude! Congratulations on the appartment!
)))
@qewconite Yo, I got about a dozen sheets of mineral wool left over from previous construction in my house. I was just curious: is it really toxic? I`m planning on wrapping the things in fabric and use plywood sheets of according sizes to make sound absorption panels. Maybe this setup on the whole is going to decrease the toxicity, cuz that`s the only thing that bothers me about this whole business. Any info, anyone?
Your Great Brother … May The Lord Bless you man … i am gona build one too someday … and when i do i will come to you for some tips later on
i sub you peas sub me back bro … you gona put up some beats ?
@qewconite Foam will work for a vocal booth and high reflections, but to treat your room you should really have rockwool or OC 703-705 for bass trapping,,,,good foam will work for early reflection points! And a BIG +100 to NOT using a closet as a booth, it will sound JUST LIKE a closet, very boxy!
Acoustic foam works for some natural slap back reverb but nothing else… You need some corner blocks in the low corners and some Triangle Bass Traps in the Top Corners point side down…. and a few treble traps on the wall… will take care of ya… a nice rug wouldn’t hurt to throw on the floor…. noone likes to hear the singer tapping his foot.. lol
tbh the sound aint that good in these booth… u need bigger sound panels to take out the bassy hz.. it really sound reverby in the room still….
At 9:32 when he started making that “beat”… well, too much treatment for that kind of music, no need… so i wrote this comment and im off to other videos…
btw, doing a beat with your mouth, even if you think its a Bass drum sound, it is not, so the lowest frequencies are not present, no way you can say “no need” for bass traps, that foam all that absorbs its hi and mid, ONLY… thank God you are trained, lol
Do you have any vocal recordings posted from your studio ?
dam brother, nice studio. and you done some amazing stuff bro. can you please subscribe back thanks
@tonganbreed
No reading involved at all, I did try to script it in my head a lil’ bit but once I started going it was a few all nighters and just being random with the cam. Maybe the glue got to me
@qewconite
All depends fam – you can get cracking quality in many scenarios. Don’t just look at ‘footage’ available. Consider the actual treatment, elements in/out of the room, the fact that this is a booth WITHIN a bigger booth (the treated room), I can record with the door open, take bits of the foam out, add more blankets/wood/dampeners… It’s all about being creative not just following defaults. Mics vary, booths vary, treatments vary, be creative and you can achieve unreal quality.
@kking818
lol no – just under $1,000
Acoustic foam is very little value for your money.
Rockwool is waaay better value for your money. The money you wont blow on the foam you can spend on a better mic interface etc.
NEVER BUILD A VOCAL BOOTH IN A CLOSETH! the minimum size for a vocal booth is 3.5 x 3.5 meter. And with this size you need to install HUGE basstraps. Otherwise your booth will only filter out the high frequenties and youll be left with a bassy duf voice. Bigger vocal booths filter the frequenties more equal.
epppic
this guy did a good job but its kind of funny cz if u listen,it sounds like hes reading what hes saying lol..awesome job though! God bless!
Did he say $100,000 bucks without paying top dollar? WTF?
@ProgressiveBeats502
For this application yeah we simply got a very long 1/4″ extension and drilled a hole into the door so we can feed wires through with it closed. Then simply insulate or double up on foam inside the hole and on the outside. The same goes for the wires for the mics, for the light, and now for the screen + keyboard/mouse extensions that are coming so I can be in the booth and record and play with the DAW all without having to leave the booth or have a sound man.
hey i have a really important question how did you put your headphones in the booth like is it wireless or did you buy a really long cord then run it threw the ground ?
you still need bass traps
pretty boomy
@KidMazz2599 havent you read the uploader comments, ur fucking retarded, he imported his own beats.
@GeneralBeatZ
lmfao it probably was, because these samples aren’t on the dubturbo software… lmao i have it and i haven’t heard these at all
I bought it and it’s not just $29. After you buy it they say if you want to sell your beats then it’s $29 more dollers for a commercial license, then after your fined paying for the license, then they want you to buy samples and beats for so much a month debted to your accout each month.
Disappointed in their deceiptive price and all the fake reviews on the internet.
@MindzEnt , this was out before Dre Beats. Fuck off asshole.
ima get this but ima piss on sum heads if this is like sonic pro
ok im looking for a beat making software cheap and i see alot of fake reviews and shiz so you guys tell me is it worth it i can afford fl and crap and i want to make a demo cd with some beats is this the shiz or is it shit i mean will it get the job done good enough
i bet the beat was made on another software lol
To all of you that wanna get this DUBTURBO,the software is worthkess.
This software freezes up alot and when you go back to edit smh the blocks vanish.THIS SOFTWARE IS ON A PRE-SCHOOL LEVEL.
the dubturbo site is not a scam but the website is dead and also poor customer service support! DO NOT BUY THIS CHIT!
nice and smooth
this beat blows
Ive seen a lot of coments from some bozo Idiots! asking if this product cost, someone once said 30 bucks, what!! You must be having me on its actually a lot cheaper than that if you just went to dubturbo.com for the price.
@RedBeatzDaBoss hey man i got Dubturbo and im a beginner i dont understand how you get the strings and all that involved on my beats i just gotta kick hi hat and snare, how do you add those other effects you habe? maybe could you make a vid on how to make a beat and record you making a simple easy beat that has all the stuff vital for a good beat? it would be super appreciative man
don’t bother buying this shit. go with a well know and trusted software like FL Studio, i used it when i was a beginner, now i use Ableton. And don’t think this shit is easy, to anyone reading this, because it isn’t! I’ve been making shit for 2 years now and im still learning a lot
@GeeRyL Dont buy it. Get reaper. This is a piece of shit software, made to cheat newbies into thinking it’s easy. With reaper you can make real music, it ahs everything you need.
and are all the sounds from dubturbo cuz i have it or are they also from other kits?
hey man can you give me this beat, ive hear your beats, i got dubturbo, im just tryna get good at it like you hopefully you can help me out my man
@GeeRyL its only 30 bucks man and price is going up soon
@GeeRyL man its only 30 buck
hey man can you give me this beat, ive hear your beats, i got dubturbo, im just tryna get good at it like you hopefully you can help me out my man
WOW THEY EVEN JACK THE “BEATS BY DR DRE” LOGO AND JUST FLIPPED IT AROUND
MAN HOW PATHETIC OF A COMPANY AND SHITTY SOFTWARE AN U BE WHEN U GOTTA JACK LOGOS AND CANT EVEN COME UP WITH YOUR OWN,
THIS SHITTY SOFTWARE IS A JOKE
is ths stuff actually good or is it a scam i dont wnna waist my time
Fl studio (Fruity loops) is the best
GUYS THIS IS A SCAM FOR FUCKS SAKE ALL THE VIDEOS OF THIS HAV GAYASS YOUTUBE NAMES
FL_Studios Are The Best….
Hell yeah this is what I need, I’m my friends producer and while we’re ready to record, I still haven’t made a beat! FL Studio 9 was just too complicated to put my beats from my head to the actual program. I know what beats I want, but I just need a simple program that has everything there for you. Hopefully this is it!
