Creating a small recording studio in a garage or room has become a relevant need: more and more people can upload their works online or record higher quality sound. Now you don't have to spend effort removing echo in the room—an acoustic screen will help locally solve this problem.
With a small investment, you can get a space adapted for recording voice, instrumental music, and high-quality vocals.
An acoustic screen for the microphone is a structure that protects the microphone from external diffused sounds. At the same time, the sound near the microphone is enhanced. The screen made of acoustic material directs the sound directly to the microphone and absorbs unnecessary sound reflections from the room walls. As a result, you get a recording as if in a full-fledged studio.
Construction of the acoustic screen
It is simple and typical for all models: frame, microphone tongue, acoustic foam. More expensive models are made from higher quality materials and feature interesting designs.
Assembling a mini-studio takes less than a minute, and no special skills or tools are needed to assemble it.
What to pay attention to when choosing the right model?
- Model size. Measure the space for the studio. Even a small part of the room will do. Some screens are compact and can be installed on a table. Assess the size of the musical equipment that needs to be placed for recording.
- Pay attention to the quality of the damping foam: sound absorption and reflection coefficients. Shields that perform both functions are significantly more productive.
- Reliability of the materials of fasteners and stands. How often will the screen need to be assembled, disassembled, or moved from one room to another? The answer to this question will determine how powerful and reliable the construction should be.
- When choosing a screen or acoustic screen, decide what effect you need. The pattern on the foam can remove some frequencies and enhance others.
A reliable and high-quality acoustic screen for the microphone is the first purchase for creating a home recording studio. It is designed with all acoustic laws in mind, ensuring directed sound to the microphone. At the same time, the rest of the room does not need to be redesigned to meet studio needs.
