Seal any air leaks
Check for any gaps or cracks in windows, doors, and walls, and seal them with weather stripping or caulk to prevent sound from leaking in or out.
Use soundproof curtains or blankets
Hang heavy, dense curtains or blankets over windows and doors to absorb and block out sound.
Invest in acoustic panels
Install acoustic panels on walls to absorb sound and reduce echoes in the room.
Place furniture strategically
Arrange furniture such as bookshelves, couches, and cabinets to act as sound barriers and absorb sound.
Use a thick rug or carpet
Cover hard flooring with a thick rug or carpet to dampen sound and reduce noise transmission.
Consider a soundproofing door sweep
Install a door sweep to create a tight seal at the bottom of doors and prevent sound from escaping.
Build a DIY isolation booth
Construct a small, enclosed space within the room using soundproofing materials to create a dedicated recording area.
Use double drywall with green glue
Add a layer of double drywall with green glue between existing walls to increase soundproofing.
Install a soundproofing window insert
Place a soundproofing window insert over existing windows to block out external noise.
Consider professional soundproofing solutions
Consult with a professional soundproofing company for advanced solutions such as resilient channels, mass-loaded vinyl, or acoustic underlayment for floors.
