What kind of acoustic foam is perfect for your studio?

TIME REQUIRED: 1.5 Hours | DIFFICULTY: Average

    What is the most reliable tool for heavy machinery to block vibration? For domestic or commercial uses, the acoustic foam panels you can buy are fine. It helps to know certain fundamentals to select the right material that absorbs the vibration. Whenever we buy acoustic panels, there are some questions we normally pose, like how does it work? What kind of foam do I need to purchase? Or what are the things before buying that I need to remember? It also allows you to work out how to create and mount the right sound-absorbing stuff, so you need a personalized solution.

    VAXNET / Luis Caba notes that since he got the Red and Black Pyramid Arrowozoom Acoustic foams, relative to other acoustic foams that you would find online, they have done a pretty good job. On his YouTube page, you can watch the full product analysis.

How is it working?

    They are made with advanced facings with airtight acoustic foams. In the acoustic foams, the open cells permit sound energy to flow in. It quickly dissipates this energy and transforms it into small quantities of low-grade heat. The facing substrate may also provide a durable, smooth surface for the sound absorber.

Install the acoustic foams to your desired place.

What are the styles of acoustic foams on the market that I can buy?

    A suitable choice for any studio or game space is vinyl-faced sound absorbers for heavy sound equipment. Many vibration-absorbing foams consist of polyester, polyurethane, urethane, or melamine. Instead, to meet fire safety specifications, polyimide foams may be used. Vinyl and foil made from aluminum provide common acoustic foam face products.

What's the difference between impact and airborne noise? 🔊

1. Airborne Noise

  • This travels through the air, like conversations, TV sounds, or barking dogs. When sound waves hit a building, they cause it to vibrate, transmitting through the structure.

2. Impact Noise

  • This results from physical impacts on buildings, such as footsteps, slamming doors, or moving furniture. Impact noise can be harder to isolate, as these vibrations are stronger and travel further through dense materials.

What are decibels? 📏

Decibels are measured logarithmically (not as a percentage) . This means that every increase of 10dB on the scale is a tenfold increase in sound pressure level (SPL) . Near silence is 0dB 🤫, while a sound at 10dB is ten times louder!

  • 30-40 dB = Soft music, whisper 🎶
  • 60-80 dB = Office noise, traffic 🚗
  • 85-100 dB (HARMFUL) = Subway, shouted convo, chainsaw ⚠️
  • 100-140 dB (DANGEROUS) = Chainsaw, loud concert, racing, shooting range 🚨
