That looks like an acoustic nightmare to me. |

| What ever happend to carpet floor and ceiling and foam walls? That is standard for any studio, but none of these pictures have it. , just using egg cartons [yes, ing egg cartons] can break reverberation. Carpets help to an extent. You can buy large foam cushions with the form spiky side [like the bottom of egg cartons] for really cheap, 50 bucks and you have enough to cover a whole wall, just nail it on. Haven't any of you been in a recording room before? |

Jesus, take a chill pill.
Carpet floors and foam walls aren't exactly the secret to a good recording you know. |

people learned a thing or two about acoustics; they realised that egg cartons do all other than turn your room into a fire hazard and covering your entire walls with foam is a downright retarded thing to do.

for once, please have a clue what you are talking about before you make more moronic and redundant posts, where you spread pure crap like gospel. |

Plus, WTF are you going to do with all the eggs hanging around?!? Gah!! |

Egg Cartons, stereo foam, same . That wikipedia entry just reinforced what I said, so please read what you post before you go gung ho and assume I am wrong on something.
If you have a flat hard surface, you get reverberation. If you have a rough surface that breaks the sound waves up, you have less reverberation.

I can post links too. ASee all the pretty pictures of foam on the wall? You can use egg cartoons, crumpled paper, what the ever you want, it has the same effect. |

except that egg cartons and crap foam will only break up high frequencies, which are the least of your worries. all you will end up with is an uneven balance, where the bass is out of control but the highs are completely dead. this is worse than having no treatment at all.
hint: you need density. believe it or not, people actually use fibreglass/rockwool for a reason. also, pillow foam is not acoustic foam; think density and pore count.
read the ethan winer website. i pasted it for a reason. |

Cept i'm not trying to absorb sound. You use egg cartons to diffuse sound. Density means nothing really. If you use egg crate foam, you get diffusion and absorbtion, but egg crate foam also costs much more money. In those pictures many of the studios had nothing but bare walls, so pretty much anything could help.
Egg Crate foam. Cover every inch of your walls with this, and you will probably have no reveberation or reflection at all. |

if by help you mean dead highs and out of control bass |

what do you think happens when low frequency sound hits thin foam, crumpled up paper or whatever other BS you are suggesting?
answer: goes straight through it and bounces off the wall anyway.
you haven't diffused anything but high frequencies, hence my point. if you want to diffuse low frequencies, you would use a grid of random height wood blocks, like in an anechoic chamber.
more to the point, why are you concerned about diffusion? that is the absolute least of your concerns. most studios are small and need a load of absorption. diffusion would be well and truly beyond the point of diminishing returns...

density means everything, really. egg crate foam is low density and will not absorb anything but high frequencies. are you not learning anything yet? you are wrong on just about everything, as usual.
