Recording Vocals at Home: You Can Have a Great Home Recording Vocal Booth

At first thought, recording vocals at home seems straightforward: Set up a microphone, put on the headphones, and roll. But the playback often tells a different story. The sounds that leak unheard into the microphone, from the air conditioning to room echo, often reduce an exquisite vocal performance to a substandard recording.

Isolation is the key to recording vocals at home. It’s the reason big studios spend so much money to create acoustically perfect vocal booths. You need to make sure that the only sound that hits your mic is the sound you want to record. In some cases, that starts with a totally dry vocal track, just right for adding effects later. In others, for example, one corner of the room may provide an excellent short echo for big, ambient vocals. Wouldn’t it be great to have one product that gives you the flexibility to choose and modify your isolation, and even to create a temporary home recording vocal booth with ease?

Audimute has just the thing. Our sound absorption sheets and deluxe wall coverings let you create a home recording vocal booth in just a few minutes, anywhere you choose. Our sheets and wall coverings are super-effective at absorbing echo and reflection, so what you record is everything you wanted, with nothing you didn’t. You can layer them, for more absorption and even some blocking of external sound, and move them around easily to experiment with different room effects and levels of absorption.

Audimute has some tricks for the advanced home recording artist as well. If the time has come to build a dedicated home recording vocal booth, use sound absorptions sheets with our Peacemaker sound barrier for true soundproofing and complete sound control.
