Need to soundproof rental space and want to make portable panels with this. Will it turn my VO studio into a sweatbox? Good for soundproofing?

Although there is some sound-proofing, it's not what it's made for. It enhances audio by absorbing reflections. And it is insulation, so it will keep cold cold, and hot hot.

Not sure. It will fill a gamely room with music. Use it in garage to work out.

i'm not sure because the acoustics are different when comparing and apartment vs. a gym; however, 1 might work given the volume always appears louder in gyms.

I would suggest this one for recording in a pub but in the event it fails for that purpose then make sure you can return it right back like I was able to. I had high hopes for this kit but it picked up too many background noises too well for my purpose. There is a risk you could pick up too many background noises in a noisy pub as well.

Yes.... Its going to be difficult to avoid ambient noise unless you can set up backdrops and wind socks to absorb some of the extraneous sounds. This is a great mic. You can try using lavalier mics, use wind socks etc and should help a lot

I have not used mine a lot but so far I have not noticed any noise. I have used it for GarageBand sessions and have not picked up any noise in the recordings.

You would have to have the sound volume at a painfully high level to you for the sound to be bothersome to anyone sitting next to you. I find that the ambient noise around my cube drowns out any of the sound leakage coming out of my SR850.

I used the speaker cloth to cover a raw wood frame I constructed to fill a space in my old entertainment centre, and it hides the frame very well. I also liked the way it stretched smoothly to cover the frame. I can not comment on the acoustic properties of the cloth as I do not have a speaker(s) mounted behind it. It's a good product for the purpose I used the cloth for. Hope this helps.

Not sure what you mean exactly. I use mine all the time in my studio and I have had no problems with it.

Yes it is a very sensitive mic. It is so sensitive that it will capture the sounds of the cars and motorcycles that drive by my house when I record, or when my air conditioning unit is on, or the hum of a speaker, or the flush of a toilet from across the house even through closed doors. However you do not have to have a pro soundproof room to record. Just make sure that as much ambient noise as possible is reduced and whatever extra noise is left over in the recording will not be noticeable if other tracks are introduced in the song. It also depends on what purpose you're using the mic for. Straight voice recording, like podcasting? vocals with midi tracks? If it's podcasting than it's not really a big deal if theres ambient noise and might sound eerie if it is ONLY your voice, while a little ambient noise is able to be covered up with other tracks, if you're using it for music production. In either case, this mic is probably the highest quality for the lowest price you'll ever find. And don't be fooled at that either, this would be a perfectly acceptable mic to have in a professional recording studio.

I use it for my home studio, so it's in a fairly protected environment. I like it and it provides a lot of flexibility for EQ and time delay which is sometimes important for me. I had some reliability problems with it initially, but I took the chance, opened it up, reseated the socketed PROM. Since then (a year), everything has been working fine.

I didn't use it in this capacity so I'm not really sure. It was quiet enough. If you are looking for vocal effects, why not go with the boss ve-20 or EHX voice box. If you want reverb on your live vocals, the best results will come out of pedals made for microphones and not guitars.

I use it to record home demos on my iPad using an inexpensive docking station. I also use it to practice melody line. I have never used it live. It is just a way for me to know I am off vocally and re-record.

It'll probably do it well, but in my opinion you would have better results using the ORTF (2 mics overhead) setup in addition to the Kick mic.A good and inexpensive ORTF combo: Superlux S502

Yes .....we are using the product for a vocal booth in a Project Studio with great results to reduce unwanted reflections....

This little thing is pretty noisey. If you can isolate it you'll be fine, otherwise you'll want a larger one that works less. Good luck

@ +12db you will hear some noise, but for live work it's acceptable&gt; I would not use it for studio post production mix downs. Hope this was helpful.
