Do you have a closet? Throw you clothes in the garbage and build a floating room-in-a-room instead!
Here are some pictures of how I did it. I may seem handier than I actually am on these pictures - I actually got help from a craftsman to build the room. I decided to build a floating recording room to be able to record my Marshall amp with a microphone (instead of using a line signal) - and to get better control of my recordings and room reverberations. Also this will annoy my neighbors a lot less! Now that I have got a better recording room - I just need to find some time to record... I haven't even tested the room yet - however just by clapping my hands in this room I hear that there are absolutely no reverberations - which is really cool! edit - here is a first sample recording from the room PS If you are interested in building a studio - don't miss Andrew's blog about it.

Nice trick!!!
I've never thought of that! Could be a cheaper solution than building it on a whole room, nice Kris -------------------- |

Great work. I know some famous places for recording and they use improvised rooms with some great results.
