Axe-Master
5 years ago we purchased a new home in town after living in the woods for over 2 decades. It was a
tough pill to swallow, but we were so isolated and I wanted to get my son in town, closer to school,
with better Internet, and not have to drive 20 miles round trip to get him back and forth to school.
A combination of logging that took out some trees across the road, a new neighbor, and well a new
neighbor, and I found myself answering the door after hearing someone yell, "Sheriff" last Friday night.
Best part I was in my boxers tracking some live drums. Good times.
Never had this happen before. I converted the largest room in the house into a music space, have some
treatment, but no actual bass traps. I am thinking if I want to continue to enjoy living here and have some
musical freedom then I better invest..... lest the annoying new neighbor puts the local Sheriff on speed dial.
So, has anyone built their own bass traps? Do they work? I am thinking a meager db reduction of the lowest
frequencies will suffice, as the neighbor is about 100 yards away. Yeah, I know... they have to be listening hard
to be bothered in the first place, but it is what it is at this point.
Besides, I am thinking it may help me enjoy playing music in here more than I already do, which is a shit ton
as it is.
And no, I am not building an house around my house. Not an option.
Appreciate it!!
