Sound proof materials - Suggestions?

[chrispoirier]

Hello!

I have recently become obsessed with the sound proofing of my recording space. I thought it was decent but now I need it perfect. I’m curious to hear what kind of acoustic treatment other people use. I recently looked up some name brand sound proofing material (I know…it can be incredibly expensive) and it was just out of my budget reach. So I wanted to get some perhaps more affordable option ideas.

Currently I am recording out of a rather large closet that I’ve put up sound proof foam around. I have a partition that is behind me, also covered in foam. It suppresses a lot of outside noise, but it can be so much better.

Thanks for any stories of what you guys use!
