Acoustic Consulting Services

Acoustics Consulting Services are of assistance to anyone looking to improve the ambient environment for either listening to or recording sound. There are three main aspects of Acoustics: Soundproofing (keeping sounds outside your space from bleeding into it), Noise Control (reducing the impact of undesired noises within your space), and Acoustic Treatment (addressing the orientation, layout, and surfaces of your space so that desired sounds made within it sound clean and clear). Obviously if you do music production, recording, and/or mixing work you're going to get better sounding results if you have a space that is acoustically controlled in all three of these areas. We offer Acoustic Consulting Services to assist you in setting up or improving your space in these regards. When possible you are provided with a specific plan, including any associated drawings, notes, and lists of materials/equipment, at a flat rate price that is quoted ahead of time. In some situations it is necessary to have ongoing consultation, in which case rates are $40/hr for time spent, with a 2 hour minimum charge.

Please CONTACT US with some basic details about your project so we can provide you with an initial price estimate and suggestions for how to proceed.
