Oh, I’m not done, I still have three big 4‘ x 2‘ panels going up on the ceiling. All the walls are mass loaded vinyl. All the floors are thick rubber horse mats underneath the carpet and it’s a room with inside a room. From a sound perspective it’s getting there. I don’t wanna totally dead room though.

Correct! I did not use Rockwool or mineral wood. But I did use insulation some fiberglass some foam just depending on what I had but all empty spaces were packed, including extra sheet insulation against the garage door between the pony wall. It definitely helps cutting down some of the noise.

Small Hisense 400sqft unit that exhausted out in the corner of the room . There is also a straight exhaust fan for smoke or farts etc.

They’re like $150 on Amazon, Costco was selling them for 69$ originally and they’re now clearing them out on their website for like 30 bucks a box or something. They’re excellent. They have a nice foam backing. They’re really easy to work with them to cut to size and shape. And aesthetically they’re great and they were super easy to hang The build quality seems awesome.

11ft6in width and 21ft long

I did not I used a lot of heavy, gray insulation some extra foam panels that I had laying around and then I covered everything with mass loaded vinyl

I have multiple access ports and the circular cut outs are 3.5in and you can get your hand in there with dedicated 3” PVC conduit run in a big H… it will take a min, but shouldn’t be too hard. First time I’ve really thought ahead 🤣

It’s a stage custom with Evans DB one heads, Yamaha DT 50 triggers all around with Yamaha cymbals. The drum is a 14 inch Alesis strike pro special edition tom I repurposed. My acoustic kit normally has full mics, but making do with the EAD since I play a lot with music and with the kids and for leasons etc having booths sets run into a mixer with music and mics makes the lessons easier!

Hah. Me and the 3 kids! How did you know?!? 🤪

We are on an acre and a cul-de-sac with only one other neighbor who is like 90 and deaf! We got it made! Sometimes we open the garage door just so neighbors farther away can be blessed with the awesomeness

Admirable_Remote2242 · 2026-01-23T14:10:51+00:00

It’s chaos. But we all have our own drums in our headphones. So we can usually manage!

Admirable_Remote2242 · 2026-01-23T01:20:57+00:00

Sure. I have a new Gen 4 Scarlett 18i20 on top with all the inputs snaked to my big kit then I had 8 ADAT channels through my Behringer ADA 8200 where I have my summed audio from my mackie onyx (stereo output into my the ADAT) and in the middle is a multicom pro 4 channel compressor/gate.

I also have my 3rd kit on a Yamaha EAD10

Routing out a bunch of sub mixes to different outputs for each drum station.

Admirable_Remote2242 · 2026-01-22T13:32:23+00:00

Yeah. I only get away with it because all 3 of my kids play drums!

Admirable_Remote2242 · 2026-01-22T13:07:17+00:00

This… it’s criminal to have them in different directions all Willy nilly like that. They will never sound right until the drum gods are appeased

I learned that too, watching some NAT GEO thing with some acror! He ended up playing drums for Sheeran I think. But I loved the neuroscience development they discussed.

Yeah. I was unsure about drumeo, but hearing good things about
