Set up the Hooker Furniture Home Office Crafted Bookcase in the corner of your music room to prevent the ‘megaphone effect’.<\/p><\/div>\n

Let\u2019s say you have a spare room in your home and now you want to concentrate on your music career. It does not have to be as grand as this reason but if your family wants to have a dedicated music room, then it\u2019s high time to turn that spare room into one.<\/p>\n

This music room will surely keep your family together for many hours. Or if you\u2019re a free spirit, you can also enjoy your me<\/em> moments here. Here are the considerations that you need to make \u2013<\/p>\n

Size and Location <\/strong><\/p>\n

Find out what room you would want to be turned into a music room. As much as possible, try to have one on the lower ground floor because upper floors will need added soundproofing. Basements can be easily converted into music rooms because of their natural soundproofing capacities.<\/p>\n

Be sure to measure the dimensions to know the kinds of equipment that you can bring into the room. Also, you need to carefully think through if major renovations will be done. There are some renovations that require complete floor replacements so find this out before you start bringing in the equipment, d\u00e9cor, and lighting.<\/p>\n

Soundproof <\/strong><\/p>\n
Use soundproofing tiles to the music room\u2019s ceiling and use studio foam on the walls. As for the door, make sure that you use sealing tape all around the frame so that sound will not leak out. The windows must also be covered with a dense blackout drapery fabric so that further soundproofing is achieved.<\/p>\n
Now, as you turn to the flooring, check if the sound reverberates as you clap your hands. If there is still an echoing sound of sorts, then you should improve on the soundproofing. The floor can have a thick carpet as a soundproofed material.<\/p>\n
Remember that a good music room is all about having a good sound absorption. The best techniques could enhance the room\u2019s acoustics because of sound clarity. Sometimes, basic furnishings would already do well as sound absorbers. Be sure to stay away from hard surfaces which echo sound such as concrete, tiles, glass windows, hardwood flooring.<\/p>\n
If you want to muffle sounds, then use pads (e.g. thick area rugs) or even plants.<\/p>\n
To prevent the megaphone effect <\/em>on corners, you can set up bookshelves, a bookcase or dividers in those areas.<\/p>\n
Bring in the Equipment <\/strong><\/p>\n
The room\u2019s size determines what sort of equipment you can bring in. A big room will be able to accommodate a piano or a complete drum set. Smaller rooms could do with an electrical keyboard, some string instruments, and music stands.<\/p>\n
Do you want a karaoke machine to be set up, too? This can be stored inside a closet when it is not in use. Consider also how to situate the microphones along with the microphone stands.<\/p>\n
Set Up the Electrical and Lighting System <\/strong><\/p>\n
Of course, your music room would need to have heavy-duty electrical outlets. You could consider increasing the power in your electrical box. The more outlets you have on the walls, the more instruments you can keep in the music room.<\/p>\n
As soon as the outlets are set up, you can then bring in the lighting fixtures for the music room. You will need an overhead light like a chandelier. Recessed lighting with dimmers can also be used in controlling the room\u2019s ambience. For added lighting, you can also have adjustable floor lamps.<\/p>\n
See how LED music lights can be clipped onto the music stands so that musicians will not have a hard time reading their musical pieces as they practice. Lastly, check some stage lighting that will make your performances come alive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
