1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,020
so I'm sitting in a room right now that

2
00:00:01,860 --> 00:00:06,240
I should have sound proved quite a while

3
00:00:04,020 --> 00:00:09,000
ago my home office where life got in the

4
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:11,580
way and I never got around of doing it

5
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:13,980
yet but in the meantime I've had a lot

6
00:00:11,580 --> 00:00:15,719
of people asking questions on cheapest

7
00:00:13,980 --> 00:00:17,400
way to sound Brew for room because you

8
00:00:15,719 --> 00:00:19,800
go online and you see a lot of videos

9
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:22,140
how to sample from for 20 bucks well

10
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:24,660
I've done a video talking about that

11
00:00:22,140 --> 00:00:27,000
video link right there and the thing is

12
00:00:24,660 --> 00:00:28,560
if you go watch those videos you'll be

13
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:30,359
quite disappointed because if you follow

14
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:31,859
those types of advice how to sound

15
00:00:30,359 --> 00:00:33,840
perform for twenty dollars how to sound

16
00:00:31,859 --> 00:00:36,120
perform for fifty dollars it usually

17
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:38,280
doesn't work you'll go ahead buy the

18
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:40,739
products they recommend and you'll be

19
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:42,719
just looked online and tried to find

20
00:00:40,739 --> 00:00:45,180
alternative products that I've

21
00:00:42,719 --> 00:00:48,120
recommended in the past that the prices

22
00:00:45,180 --> 00:00:50,520
has gone up so much because one thing

23
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:52,980
that I've also learned if you buy a

24
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:55,559
product that has the word acoustic on it

25
00:00:52,980 --> 00:00:58,079
like acoustic sealant that's just a way

26
00:00:55,559 --> 00:01:01,320
for them to raise the price the sad

27
00:00:58,079 --> 00:01:03,719
truth is if you go around online and try

28
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:06,360
to find some products that are for

29
00:01:03,719 --> 00:01:08,700
Acoustics acoustic sealant for example

30
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:11,580
because it gives them more reasons to

31
00:01:08,700 --> 00:01:13,920
think that the product is a lot more

32
00:01:11,580 --> 00:01:15,780
than what it actually is so I did find

33
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:17,700
some products that are comparable to

34
00:01:15,780 --> 00:01:18,960
products that I used to recommend at a

35
00:01:17,700 --> 00:01:21,000
fraction of the price and I'll have

36
00:01:18,960 --> 00:01:23,340
Links of all these products in the

37
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:25,920
description below first thing that you

38
00:01:23,340 --> 00:01:27,780
need to do is where is the sound coming

39
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:29,520
from the reality is most of the noise

40
00:01:27,780 --> 00:01:32,220
coming into a room is either coming in

41
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:34,500
from a door or a window so if you go

42
00:01:32,220 --> 00:01:36,119
ahead and soundproof a wall you might be

43
00:01:34,500 --> 00:01:38,460
quite disappointed because you could

44
00:01:36,119 --> 00:01:40,680
have just soundproofed the door and also

45
00:01:38,460 --> 00:01:43,020
using the word soundproof can also be

46
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:46,560
misleading because really what we're

47
00:01:43,020 --> 00:01:48,180
trying to achieve is Sound Reduction so

48
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:50,159
let's start with where most of the noise

49
00:01:48,180 --> 00:01:53,820
is probably coming in which is the door

50
00:01:50,159 --> 00:01:55,560
and these things will not be used to

51
00:01:53,820 --> 00:01:57,899
soundproof the door because a lot of

52
00:01:55,560 --> 00:02:01,020
people online is saying just take These

53
00:01:57,899 --> 00:02:03,240
acoustic foam thingies here and it will

54
00:02:01,020 --> 00:02:06,000
sound proof the door what this is is for

55
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:08,280
sound deadening not soundproofing if you

56
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,959
stick these all over your door you will

57
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:12,420
be quite disappointed and these aren't

58
00:02:09,959 --> 00:02:14,700
exactly cheap anymore if you want about

59
00:02:12,420 --> 00:02:16,020
24 of these you'll pay around 50 we'll

60
00:02:14,700 --> 00:02:18,959
talk about these a little bit later in

61
00:02:16,020 --> 00:02:21,420
the video but don't use these to sound

62
00:02:18,959 --> 00:02:23,940
proof the best way to do it is to seal

63
00:02:21,420 --> 00:02:25,260
all the cracks look at the door turn off

64
00:02:23,940 --> 00:02:27,780
the lights in the room that you're in

65
00:02:25,260 --> 00:02:30,180
close the door turn the lights on in the

66
00:02:27,780 --> 00:02:32,760
opposite room and is there a lot of

67
00:02:30,180 --> 00:02:35,520
light bleeding through around the door

68
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:37,140
under the bottom of the door if there's

69
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:39,959
a lot of light bleeding through there's

70
00:02:37,140 --> 00:02:42,180
noise bleeding through they say and who

71
00:02:39,959 --> 00:02:45,480
is they I have no idea the experts

72
00:02:42,180 --> 00:02:48,540
perhaps they say that only a crack will

73
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:50,220
let about 50 percent of the noise back

74
00:02:48,540 --> 00:02:52,560
into the room now

75
00:02:50,220 --> 00:02:56,459
if that's true how about we just seal

76
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:58,500
that Gap with acoustical caulking now it

77
00:02:56,459 --> 00:03:01,260
has that word in front of it acoustical

78
00:02:58,500 --> 00:03:03,959
so price just went up we have to find an

79
00:03:01,260 --> 00:03:06,180
alternative that works the same way the

80
00:03:03,959 --> 00:03:08,640
difference between acoustical sealant

81
00:03:06,180 --> 00:03:11,819
acoustical Caulking and regular caulking

82
00:03:08,640 --> 00:03:14,580
is that the biggest difference is it it

83
00:03:11,819 --> 00:03:17,400
will not dry and crack over time regular

84
00:03:14,580 --> 00:03:20,159
caulking will dry and as the house

85
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:24,060
shifts as you get very angry and you

86
00:03:20,159 --> 00:03:26,220
slam doors that caulking will crack and

87
00:03:24,060 --> 00:03:27,659
will let noise back in you wouldn't

88
00:03:26,220 --> 00:03:30,659
think it would just there was little

89
00:03:27,659 --> 00:03:32,879
hairline cracks but it does now what I

90
00:03:30,659 --> 00:03:37,200
recommend instead of acoustical sealant

91
00:03:32,879 --> 00:03:39,780
is called Red Devil caulking it's 779 at

92
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:42,180
recording of this video on Amazon and

93
00:03:39,780 --> 00:03:44,580
this stuff is guaranteed not to shrink

94
00:03:42,180 --> 00:03:46,739
not to crack so where do you put it well

95
00:03:44,580 --> 00:03:49,680
on your screen this is exactly where you

96
00:03:46,739 --> 00:03:52,260
put it around where the door meets that

97
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:54,120
small case thing you have to seal that

98
00:03:52,260 --> 00:03:56,159
Gap what you should do first is take

99
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:58,019
some small nails and make sure that it

100
00:03:56,159 --> 00:03:59,940
is properly affixed to the wall after

101
00:03:58,019 --> 00:04:02,159
that's done make sure that the area is

102
00:03:59,940 --> 00:04:04,680
clean and dry and then add your caulking

103
00:04:02,159 --> 00:04:07,440
let that dry after that's done you want

104
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:09,840
to create a better seal when you close

105
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:11,700
the door because a lot of the time if

106
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:14,220
you close the door does the door wobble

107
00:04:11,700 --> 00:04:16,440
a bit if it wobbles noise is coming

108
00:04:14,220 --> 00:04:18,000
through you want to stop that wobble how

109
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:21,060
do you do that you can use weather

110
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:23,280
stripping weather stripping is cheap you

111
00:04:21,060 --> 00:04:25,320
can get weather stripping for under ten

112
00:04:23,280 --> 00:04:28,320
dollars however you can go a step

113
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:30,900
further and add something called a door

114
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:33,360
seal kit and it's around fifty dollars

115
00:04:30,900 --> 00:04:36,479
and at recording of this video it's on

116
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:40,440
sale for I believe 45 dollars video

117
00:04:36,479 --> 00:04:42,660
right there I install it I test it and

118
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:45,419
it works pretty well it works better

119
00:04:42,660 --> 00:04:47,940
than a weather strip but it's five times

120
00:04:45,419 --> 00:04:50,100
more expensive and it's more work to

121
00:04:47,940 --> 00:04:52,380
install now after that's done you still

122
00:04:50,100 --> 00:04:54,600
will have one Gap at the bottom of the

123
00:04:52,380 --> 00:04:57,300
door that lets a lot of noise in now

124
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,919
there is an issue here because if you

125
00:04:57,300 --> 00:05:01,139
you don't want to restrict too much

126
00:04:58,919 --> 00:05:03,360
airflow there is something that you can

127
00:05:01,139 --> 00:05:05,699
do just to see if it does restrict

128
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:07,139
airflow just add a blanket at the bottom

129
00:05:05,699 --> 00:05:10,199
of the door now if you want a more

130
00:05:07,139 --> 00:05:12,000
permanent solution you can add a bottom

131
00:05:10,199 --> 00:05:14,220
door sweep now the door sweep that I

132
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:16,320
recommend is under ten dollars and it's

133
00:05:14,220 --> 00:05:18,900
a U-shaped door sweep these u-shaped

134
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:21,240
door sweeps I find works very well you

135
00:05:18,900 --> 00:05:23,639
order it it comes in one size and you

136
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:25,500
just cut it to the width of your door

137
00:05:23,639 --> 00:05:27,600
and you'll notice a lot of Sound

138
00:05:25,500 --> 00:05:30,539
Reduction now after you've added your

139
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:32,100
bottom door sweep your door seal kit or

140
00:05:30,539 --> 00:05:34,380
your weather stripping and your cousco

141
00:05:32,100 --> 00:05:37,020
caulking no not a cool school caulking

142
00:05:34,380 --> 00:05:39,120
you're a red devil caulking your room

143
00:05:37,020 --> 00:05:41,699
will be a lot more soundproof than it

144
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:43,860
was the amount of noise coming in will

145
00:05:41,699 --> 00:05:45,600
have been reduced will it cost you more

146
00:05:43,860 --> 00:05:48,060
than twenty dollars it actually doesn't

147
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:51,300
have to if you just go with the caulking

148
00:05:48,060 --> 00:05:53,400
and the weather strip and then threw a

149
00:05:51,300 --> 00:05:55,500
blanket on the floor to stop the noise

150
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:57,539
from bleeding in yeah you can soundproof

151
00:05:55,500 --> 00:05:59,039
the door for under 20 works a lot better

152
00:05:57,539 --> 00:06:00,479
than sticking these on the wall I can

153
00:05:59,039 --> 00:06:02,820
tell you that now after all that's done

154
00:06:00,479 --> 00:06:04,800
you can still go a step further and add

155
00:06:02,820 --> 00:06:07,020
something in front of the door to make

156
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:09,419
it more soundproof to block some noise

157
00:06:07,020 --> 00:06:12,840
and also make the room sound better no

158
00:06:09,419 --> 00:06:15,360
it's not these it's a moving blanket or

159
00:06:12,840 --> 00:06:17,520
two moving blankets moving blankets are

160
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:20,400
thicker they're heavier than regular

161
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:23,819
blankets they're better than

162
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:26,039
just using some curtains and they'll

163
00:06:23,819 --> 00:06:28,380
block noise and they'll make the room

164
00:06:26,039 --> 00:06:30,960
sound better how you hang the curtains

165
00:06:28,380 --> 00:06:33,539
also is is by using velcro what you do

166
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:35,940
you just staple the velcro or you can

167
00:06:33,539 --> 00:06:38,100
actually sew it onto the moving blanket

168
00:06:35,940 --> 00:06:40,500
industrial velcro works a lot better

169
00:06:38,100 --> 00:06:42,240
because blankets are quite heavy you

170
00:06:40,500 --> 00:06:44,100
might be wondering well these blankets

171
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:46,199
how much do they cost while moving

172
00:06:44,100 --> 00:06:47,580
blankets don't cost that much you can

173
00:06:46,199 --> 00:06:49,440
get two moving while you can get one

174
00:06:47,580 --> 00:06:51,660
moving blanket for 17 bucks but let's

175
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,940
forget about that let's get two moving

176
00:06:51,660 --> 00:06:56,100
blankets for twenty dollars that's a lot

177
00:06:53,940 --> 00:06:57,740
cheaper than acoustic foam and you can

178
00:06:56,100 --> 00:07:00,120
actually use it for different things

179
00:06:57,740 --> 00:07:02,340
also the moving blankets will not only

180
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:04,979
block some noise coming in through the

181
00:07:02,340 --> 00:07:07,979
door but will also make the room sound

182
00:07:04,979 --> 00:07:10,680
better it'll do what these things are

183
00:07:07,979 --> 00:07:14,340
meant to do you add those plush material

184
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:16,500
on a flat hard surface it will absorb

185
00:07:14,340 --> 00:07:18,180
some sound waves it's not going to

186
00:07:16,500 --> 00:07:20,340
absorb enough sound waves to actually

187
00:07:18,180 --> 00:07:22,800
block a lot of the noise but it will

188
00:07:20,340 --> 00:07:25,259
make a little bit of a difference and it

189
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,880
will not break the bank which is good

190
00:07:25,259 --> 00:07:29,639
and you can use it for other things

191
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:31,440
that's it with the door let's move on if

192
00:07:29,639 --> 00:07:34,800
you're having troubles with the window

193
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:37,860
the window is a little bit uh more of a

194
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:39,720
challenge because to add stuff on the

195
00:07:37,860 --> 00:07:42,000
window to make it a lot more sound proof

196
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:44,940
will cost you a lot of money changing

197
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:47,400
the windows to really thin single pane

198
00:07:44,940 --> 00:07:49,860
windows to double or triple pane windows

199
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:51,840
that's quite costly there are ways to

200
00:07:49,860 --> 00:07:53,819
reduce the amount of noise coming

201
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:55,979
through the window by using the caulking

202
00:07:53,819 --> 00:07:57,660
that I was talking about in the door you

203
00:07:55,979 --> 00:07:59,639
can use that around the window frame

204
00:07:57,660 --> 00:08:02,940
around the window where the window meets

205
00:07:59,639 --> 00:08:05,699
the frame and those cracks will bleed

206
00:08:02,940 --> 00:08:07,560
noise in not a whole lot of noise but if

207
00:08:05,699 --> 00:08:09,780
you already have the caulking bring it

208
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:11,460
over to the window also after that's

209
00:08:09,780 --> 00:08:13,680
done you can use the moving blankets

210
00:08:11,460 --> 00:08:17,580
block the window with removing blankets

211
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:21,120
use the double sided velcro and that

212
00:08:17,580 --> 00:08:23,580
will work but you can also use blackout

213
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:26,220
curtains now blackout curtains sound

214
00:08:23,580 --> 00:08:28,319
deadening curtains it's it's it's more

215
00:08:26,220 --> 00:08:30,720
yes it's more sound deadening curtains

216
00:08:28,319 --> 00:08:32,760
than sound proofing curtains but they

217
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:35,820
will stop a little bit of the noise from

218
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:39,479
coming in the thing is is try if you can

219
00:08:35,820 --> 00:08:43,200
just buy a single panel one single panel

220
00:08:39,479 --> 00:08:46,320
because one wide single panel will work

221
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:48,779
better than two panels because you'll

222
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:51,300
avoid getting that slice right in the

223
00:08:48,779 --> 00:08:53,580
middle making noise bleed into the room

224
00:08:51,300 --> 00:08:55,019
if you do that you will reduce a little

225
00:08:53,580 --> 00:08:57,360
bit of the noise coming in from outside

226
00:08:55,019 --> 00:08:59,279
it's not going to be huge I can't I'm

227
00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:01,560
not going to lie to you and tell you

228
00:08:59,279 --> 00:09:04,920
that you're going to reduce the Noise by

229
00:09:01,560 --> 00:09:07,680
50 or 25 percent what it's going to do

230
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:09,540
it's going to deaden especially road

231
00:09:07,680 --> 00:09:12,320
noise if you're dealing with a lot of

232
00:09:09,540 --> 00:09:15,360
road noise that those high pitched noise

233
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:17,100
are going to be deaden a little bit now

234
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:19,200
by deadening that noise it'll make the

235
00:09:17,100 --> 00:09:20,779
noise a lot less annoying but it might

236
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:24,540
just be enough to make the room home

237
00:09:20,779 --> 00:09:26,399
peaceful enough for you so now the walls

238
00:09:24,540 --> 00:09:29,100
while the walls is a little bit more

239
00:09:26,399 --> 00:09:32,040
tricky because I am not going to sit

240
00:09:29,100 --> 00:09:34,620
here and tell you to add these on the

241
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:37,320
wall adding Mass on the wall is what's

242
00:09:34,620 --> 00:09:39,540
going to soundproof your wall it's that

243
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:42,899
simple you have to add Mass you have to

244
00:09:39,540 --> 00:09:44,940
add mass less sound waves are able to go

245
00:09:42,899 --> 00:09:47,399
through if you can do it yourself adding

246
00:09:44,940 --> 00:09:49,560
the drywall on the wall that has the

247
00:09:47,399 --> 00:09:52,140
most noise coming through then you will

248
00:09:49,560 --> 00:09:54,300
be a lot happier than adding some

249
00:09:52,140 --> 00:09:56,399
acoustic foam that I threw somewheres or

250
00:09:54,300 --> 00:09:59,100
some acoustic panels if you have to hire

251
00:09:56,399 --> 00:10:01,320
somebody it'll be more expensive now you

252
00:09:59,100 --> 00:10:04,860
can Elevate the amount of soundproofing

253
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:07,200
by adding some Mass loaded vinyl a sheet

254
00:10:04,860 --> 00:10:09,959
of it in between the two layers of

255
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:13,500
drywall now Mass loaded vinyl is a very

256
00:10:09,959 --> 00:10:16,380
dense very heavy but thin rubber that

257
00:10:13,500 --> 00:10:18,899
acts as a sound proofer and also as a

258
00:10:16,380 --> 00:10:21,480
sound deadener so it's not only going to

259
00:10:18,899 --> 00:10:24,660
block sound it's all also going to

260
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:26,399
absorb noise or help absorb some of the

261
00:10:24,660 --> 00:10:28,680
noise the thing is with mass loaded

262
00:10:26,399 --> 00:10:30,959
vinyl it is quite expensive so so it's

263
00:10:28,680 --> 00:10:33,839
not the cheapest way to soundproof a

264
00:10:30,959 --> 00:10:36,420
wall it will cost you around 100 or more

265
00:10:33,839 --> 00:10:37,920
for the mass loaded vinyl because the

266
00:10:36,420 --> 00:10:40,920
more you need the more it's going to

267
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:43,440
cost the thing is if you buy in bulk

268
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:45,839
it's going to be cheaper however it

269
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:48,779
comes in a roll the roll will just be

270
00:10:45,839 --> 00:10:51,899
bigger now Mass loaded vinyl will weigh

271
00:10:48,779 --> 00:10:54,180
about one pound to two pounds per square

272
00:10:51,899 --> 00:10:56,820
foot now keep that in mind now let's

273
00:10:54,180 --> 00:10:58,920
take a step back if you aren't willing

274
00:10:56,820 --> 00:11:01,500
to add some drywall if you can't afford

275
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:03,839
or is unwilling to add some Mass loaded

276
00:11:01,500 --> 00:11:06,720
vinyl what else can you do to the wall

277
00:11:03,839 --> 00:11:10,140
to make it more soundproof electrical

278
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:11,820
outlets now you would think that there's

279
00:11:10,140 --> 00:11:13,920
no noise coming through the Electoral

280
00:11:11,820 --> 00:11:16,260
Outlets let's just pretend here that you

281
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:18,600
have a wall between rooms that is

282
00:11:16,260 --> 00:11:20,640
uninsulated no insulation in the walls

283
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:22,860
because most walls between rooms are

284
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:25,560
uninsulated and now most electrical

285
00:11:22,860 --> 00:11:28,440
outlets will be back to back a lot of

286
00:11:25,560 --> 00:11:30,060
them not all of them if you go right to

287
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:32,100
the electrical outlet and you start

288
00:11:30,060 --> 00:11:33,540
talking and you have somebody else on

289
00:11:32,100 --> 00:11:35,700
the other side of the room at the

290
00:11:33,540 --> 00:11:37,980
electrical outlet and they can they have

291
00:11:35,700 --> 00:11:40,079
their ear right to it they'll hear you

292
00:11:37,980 --> 00:11:42,000
quite clearly because there's a hole in

293
00:11:40,079 --> 00:11:43,920
the wall and yes there is an electrical

294
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:45,779
box but that electrical box is full of

295
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:49,560
holes as well now the best product to

296
00:11:45,779 --> 00:11:52,380
use to soundproof electrical boxes of

297
00:11:49,560 --> 00:11:54,060
that type are putty pads now putty pads

298
00:11:52,380 --> 00:11:56,880
are great you just wrap it around the

299
00:11:54,060 --> 00:11:58,860
box it keeps it from bleeding noise and

300
00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:02,399
also it's fire safe it was actually

301
00:11:58,860 --> 00:12:04,560
developed to contain fire if a fire were

302
00:12:02,399 --> 00:12:06,480
to start inside the electrical outlet

303
00:12:04,560 --> 00:12:09,480
the wall needs to be open for you to do

304
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:11,459
that now chances are are your wall is

305
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,260
finished you can't get behind the

306
00:12:11,459 --> 00:12:16,260
electrical outlet box so what do you do

307
00:12:13,260 --> 00:12:18,899
can't use putty pads well let's go back

308
00:12:16,260 --> 00:12:21,420
to your red rooster caulking or no Red

309
00:12:18,899 --> 00:12:23,820
Devil Caulking and no this video is not

310
00:12:21,420 --> 00:12:25,560
sponsored by Red Devil caulking go get

311
00:12:23,820 --> 00:12:28,320
your Red Devil Caulking and remove your

312
00:12:25,560 --> 00:12:31,500
electrical box cover what you'll notice

313
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:35,700
is most likely quite a big gap between

314
00:12:31,500 --> 00:12:39,120
the electrical box and the drywall now

315
00:12:35,700 --> 00:12:41,399
if the crack is too big for sealant then

316
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:43,139
right there a lot of noise is coming in

317
00:12:41,399 --> 00:12:45,420
if you can't seal it with sealant

318
00:12:43,139 --> 00:12:47,760
because the crack is too big then use a

319
00:12:45,420 --> 00:12:49,740
product called backer rod it's cheap you

320
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:52,620
just cut a piece and you wrap it around

321
00:12:49,740 --> 00:12:55,440
around electrical boxes and then you add

322
00:12:52,620 --> 00:12:57,660
your caulking around all the cracks to

323
00:12:55,440 --> 00:13:01,079
make sure it is all sealed put your face

324
00:12:57,660 --> 00:13:03,300
plate back on you might be surprised at

325
00:13:01,079 --> 00:13:05,040
how much noise has been reduced then

326
00:13:03,300 --> 00:13:07,440
that'll work even better if you can go

327
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:09,959
on the other room and do that to all the

328
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:11,579
outlet covers and light switches you

329
00:13:09,959 --> 00:13:13,320
will definitely notice more of a

330
00:13:11,579 --> 00:13:15,300
difference than just sticking an

331
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:17,700
acoustic foam on the wall after all

332
00:13:15,300 --> 00:13:19,560
that's done let's talk about acoustic

333
00:13:17,700 --> 00:13:21,540
Foams and acoustic panels because a lot

334
00:13:19,560 --> 00:13:23,579
of videos out there that's all they

335
00:13:21,540 --> 00:13:25,380
recommend acoustic foam what that will

336
00:13:23,579 --> 00:13:28,019
do it'll make the room sound better

337
00:13:25,380 --> 00:13:30,480
it'll deaden the noise inside the rooms

338
00:13:28,019 --> 00:13:33,180
so it can appear that the room is a lot

339
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:35,880
quieter and if you get rid of all the

340
00:13:33,180 --> 00:13:38,820
echoes in the room the noise that you're

341
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:42,060
making within the room is not going to

342
00:13:38,820 --> 00:13:44,040
sound as loud on the other side of the

343
00:13:42,060 --> 00:13:47,100
room but if you want to soundproof your

344
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:50,160
room to stop noise from the outside from

345
00:13:47,100 --> 00:13:52,200
coming in it's not really going to sound

346
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:54,120
proof anything therefore deadening the

347
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:56,639
sound and for making the room sound

348
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:58,560
better but do you have to spend hundreds

349
00:13:56,639 --> 00:14:00,899
of dollars in acoustic panels or

350
00:13:58,560 --> 00:14:03,000
acoustic Foams to achieve that you

351
00:14:00,899 --> 00:14:04,920
actually don't have to do that you can

352
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,779
do that with things that you already own

353
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:09,060
another way to absorb the noise inside

354
00:14:06,779 --> 00:14:11,700
the room and not have to spend a lot of

355
00:14:09,060 --> 00:14:14,459
money doing so is do you have add your

356
00:14:11,700 --> 00:14:16,019
second moving blanket on the wall now

357
00:14:14,459 --> 00:14:17,820
that's not going to soundproof the wall

358
00:14:16,019 --> 00:14:19,620
that's not going to stop noise from

359
00:14:17,820 --> 00:14:22,139
coming through it's only going to make

360
00:14:19,620 --> 00:14:24,899
the room sound better and it is a lot

361
00:14:22,139 --> 00:14:26,880
cheaper but uglier than adding some

362
00:14:24,899 --> 00:14:28,500
acoustic on the wall alright so that's

363
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:30,120
