The majority of building materials will have a sound absorption rating like the Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC). Depending on the construction of your space and the type of sound you are dealing with, you can determine the amount of material you need through architectural calculations. If you have any questions about the process, feel free to call the Soundproof Cow team at 866-949-9269 or email us at sales@soundproofcow. com. What Type of Space Are You Dealing With? The recommended reverberation time — the amount of time sound bounces around before it dissipates — can vary based on the type of environment you are in. The sound will decay rapidly in a “dead" space, while the sound will persist in a “live” space. Different spaces will have different reverberation times to make them more comfortable. What Type of Material Should I Use? There is a wide variety of sound absorption materials, ranging from hanging baffles to acoustic cotton. When you select materials, keep in mind commercial fire codes. Also, consider the NRC, which determines... --- ### How Do Construction Materials Affect Floor Soundproofing? > Want to create a quiet space that others will enjoy spending time in? Discover how different construction materials will affect floor soundproofing. - Published: 2024-07-01 - Modified: 2025-03-31 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/soundproofing-101/how-construction-materials-affect-floor-soundproofing/ The types of materials used for floor construction can have a significant impact on how quiet or noisy a space is once it is finished. Some materials are designed to more effectively absorb or block the transmission of sound than others. Learn more from Soundproof Cow! What Type of Construction Material Is Used in Your Flooring Assembly? Typically, commercial construction utilizes concrete slabs, which greatly increase both the Sound Transmission Class (STC) rating and the Impact Insulation Class (IIC) rating. The STC rating measures how well a surface can reduce airborne sound, while the IIC rating measures how well the floor assembly blocks noise from transmitting to the room below. Using materials like concrete, which contain a great deal of mass, in the flooring assembly will help block the transfer of sound in a space. This will then impact the STC and IIC ratings of the space. What Type of Flooring Are You Installing? The type of flooring you install will also affect the floor's soundproofing. For example, carpet will have a better STC/IIC rating than tile or hardwood because it can absorb sound better. Depending on the type of flooring, there are different underlayment options to choose from to improve the ratings. Where Is Sound Coming From in Your Space? Determining where the sound is coming from in your space will help you determine the most effective flooring and soundproofing approach. Some underlayment is specifically designed to help dissipate the vibration from footfalls, which helps with noise that transfers... --- ### Separating the Cow from the Bull > How do construction materials and product ratings impact the performance of wall and flooring soundproofing materials?

Soundproofing refers to materials that contain sound within the confines of a space. Sound absorption products absorb sound waves that bounce around a room and create background noise, echo, and poor acoustics. Soundproofing products are what you want if you're looking to keep what happens in your conference rooms confidential. On the other hand, sound absorption products don't stop sound from traveling into adjoining rooms, but they do drastically improve speech intelligibility and the sound quality within rooms and other enclosed spaces. In an attempt to rid yourself of unwanted noises quickly, you could erroneously mix up these terms and invest in the wrong material for your home or business.

Enhanced Patient Privacy, Comfort and Satisfaction Patients value things like privacy and comfort, especially when they're in an uncomfortable situation.

Learn to manage hair dryer noise with the Soundproof Cow! - Published: 2022-03-15 - Modified: 2023-03-16 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/quietest-hair-dryers/ What Is the Quietest Hair Dryer? A peaceful morning can help you start the day on the right foot. However, if there's one thing that breaks the morning serenity, it's a loud hair dryer. If you've had enough of the noise, it's time to look into a silent hair dryer — or at least something close. What Makes Hairdryers Quiet? One way manufacturers make the quietest hair dryers is by increasing the number of blades in the fan. Adding blades allows the fan to move more air with a single rotation. Additionally, some hair dryers feature insulative or absorptive materials around the motor to minimize sound from noisy interior components. Of course, having multiple settings helps, too. Your hair dryer should make less noise at a lower, slower setting. Benefits and Drawbacks of Quiet Hair Dryers A quieter hair dryer will cause less disturbance in your home. It'll also minimize the strain on your ears a loud hairdryer can cause over time. Ultimately, a quiet hairdryer can help you enjoy a more comfortable start to your day. The only drawback to consider is the hairdryer's power. A quieter model may not dry your hair as quickly. You may have to plan some extra time into your morning routine for your hair to dry, especially if you have thicker hair. 3 Quietest Hair Dryers There are plenty of quiet hair dryers on the market. We've looked at some of the best options and broken them into three groups. 1.

Let's dive into the causes of blender noise, some of the quietest blenders available and ways to make your blender even quieter. What Makes a Blender Quiet (Or Noisy) The motor and blades are the primary factors that influence a blender's noise level. Weak motors and dull blades will struggle to cut through frozen ingredients or even large quantities of soft ingredients. The motor may hum, buzz or rattle when overworked. Blades will clank and sputter when they lose their edge or try to cut something that's too hard. To address blender noise, manufacturers start by including a powerful motor — usually 1,000 watts or more. Then, many models feature rubber or another absorptive material around the motor. Installing stainless steel blades that maintain their edge helps, too. Finally, a few of the quietest blenders have exterior casings that attempt to contain as much noise as possible. The Quietest Blenders Here are three of the quietest blenders on the market: CRANDDI soundproof quiet blender: This quiet smoothie blender features a thick shield that contains noise, plus a powerful 2,200-watt motor that'll cut through any ingredient. Breville Fresh and Furious: A high-torque motor and an always-sharp stainless steel blade allow Breville's model to blend with surgical precision. Hamilton Beach Professional Quiet Shield Blender: Another shielded unit, this blender operates at 1,500 watts and features stainless steel blades.

The home team's crowd — often called the 12th man — can make a difference with deafening noise during the opposing team's drives before simmering down for their local team to communicate clearly. Here are the eight loudest NFL stadiums that fluster quarterbacks and coaches. 8. Heinz Field, Pittsburgh — Steelers There's nothing quite like the rumble of a troupe of yinzers on a Gameday afternoon. Opposing teams beware — Heinz Field is one clamorous place to play. 7. U. S. Bank Stadium, Minneapolis — Vikings U. S. Bank Stadium is one of the league's newer venues, and the crowd brings heaps of enthusiasm. It's always hard to get a call in when facing the Vikings in their house. 6. Lucas Oil Stadium, Indianapolis — Colts The indoor stadium in downtown Indianapolis houses some of the NFL's wildest fans. Whether it's Peyton Manning, Carson Wentz or someone new at the helm, Colts fans are always loud. 5. State Farm Stadium, Glendale — Cardinals State Farm Stadium is always rocking for the Cardinals, especially now that Kyler Murray is in town. It's no surprise that opposing teams committed 167 false starts there between 2006 and 2018 — the most in that period. 4. Lambeau Field, Green Bay — Packers You've already got so much working against you when you step into Lambeau Field. The weather is chilling, the quarterbacks are ice cold and the crowd noise will freeze you in your tracks.... --- ### How to Soundproof Sports Venues > Large arenas for basketball, ice hockey, concerts and other events are noisy, so soundproof them carefully.

Soundproofing is a factor that makes a major difference every time people gather at a stadium, even if it's not always the first thing guests notice. Get a Free Acoustic Analysis Why Is It Important to Soundproof Sports Facilities? Consider how sports venues are used. Spectators pack into the arena en masse, and getting loud and rowdy is all part of the fun. But keeping sound levels within reason will ensure the best experience for everyone in attendance. The same applies to other events a sports arena will host. A well-treated stadium is a great place to see a concert. Controlling the sound to limit echoes and reverberations helps performers sound their best. As for guest speakers or stand-up comedians, acoustic treatment allows the entire audience to hear every word from anywhere in the arena. Key Principles and Considerations When soundproofing a sports facility, you have to consider your goals and the obstacles you need to overcome to accomplish them. Indoor sports arenas almost always have two sets of parallel walls, plus hard floor and ceiling surfaces. Sound reflects off of hard parallel surfaces to create echoes and reverberations, which send noise levels sky-high during a game and make it hard to hear speakers during other events. The primary goal is to give soundwaves somewhere to go so they don't reflect as much, and when they do, they... --- ### How to Soundproof a Museum > Looking for effective soundproofing for your museum?

Learn more about the types of noise and the best soundproofing products. - Published: 2016-10-06 - Modified: 2024-10-31 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/breweries/ Friends out for a night on the town are looking to socialize while they enjoy a few drinks. If your brewery is a popular spot, it will be full of patrons having competing conversations. Add the noise from your production equipment, bar operations and entertainment into the mix, and the noise level builds up quickly. Your brewery is a more pleasant place to visit when guests can enjoy casual conversations and feel understood when communicating with your servers. You can implement various soundproofing and sound-absorbing techniques at your brewery to make it a more comfortable place to visit. Types of Noise to Address in a Brewery When combatting noise inside your brewery, airborne noise is the primary concern. Airborne noise is sound energy that moves through the air in many forms, from your patrons' voices and your sound system's music to audio from a television and mechanical noise from brewing equipment or air conditioners. Airborne noise is troublesome because sound operates like a fluid — it fills its container and moves until it collides with an object with enough force to stop its flow. If the surface it hits is flat and hard, a soundwave will bounce back toward the source, resulting in an echo or reverberation. Breweries have numerous features that allow airborne noise to fill the space and reverberate within it. Newer interior designs often feature hard, sleek and industrial surfaces, open floor plans and very few materials that are effective at absorbing sound. Sounds bounce off walls,... --- ### Our Clients > Soundproof Cow provides soundproofing products to a variety of clients.

Salon Noise Is a Reality — So Is the Solution Noisiness can become a problem when it detracts from the customer experience. Whether it's a blaring hairdryer or a chatty patron a few chairs down, too much noise at the wrong times can leave customers feeling stressed or uncomfortable. The same goes for your staff — a noisy hair salon can be an unpleasant working environment. Fortunately, there are ways to limit the adverse effects of sound so that everyone has a better time at your salon. Soundproof Cow develops absorbent materials that will improve the atmosphere of your salon. Work with us to see how you'll benefit from a more peaceful hair salon. Reduce the Effects of Hair Salon Noise If you're looking to soundproof a hair salon, the key is to prevent sound from reverberating around the room. Hairdryers, voices, footsteps — they all cause noise that will bounce off hard surfaces. Consider your salon's interior. It's full of hard surfaces, isn't it? Your hard floors make post-appointment cleanup easy and mirror-covered walls are a must in any salon, but these surfaces kick soundwaves all over the room. Reducing salon noise is all about giving the soundwaves somewhere to go. That's where sound absorption comes in. Soft absorptive materials transform soundwaves into heat energy upon contact. The heat disperses instead of bouncing off of the surface. As a result, you... --- ### Fabric Wrapped Gallery > Fabric wrapped acoustic panels let you deaden & dampen sounds in your space.

Learn what sound isolation is and recommended sound isolation products for walls, ceilings, floors, and doors today. - Published: 2016-03-16 - Modified: 2025-03-14 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/soundproofing-101/sound-isolation/ What Is Sound Isolation? If you’re serious about soundproofing and noise reduction, sound isolation is the method for you. Sound travels through vibrations in waves. When sound waves hit a solid surface, they can work their way through and transfer from one room to the next. Sound isolation is the process of separating (also known as decoupling) assembly materials to stop the transfer of sound energy from one environment into another. You can achieve sound isolation by creating a physical barrier between an interior and exterior space, preventing waves from passing through. Since sound can travel in more than one way, the systems used for sound isolation may vary. Resilient channels and staggered stud walls are a few examples of acoustic isolation techniques that use this principle to effectively reduce sound transmission. The Difference Between Sound Isolation and Absorption Sound isolation and sound absorption provide different means of improving acoustics in a space. Noise isolation involves using a sound isolation system to keep noise in one room and prevent it from traveling to another through walls, ceilings and floors. In contrast, sound absorption takes in sound waves and converts part of the energy into heat while the rest bounces back into the room. How Wall and Ceiling Sound Isolation Works Sound travels through drywall along common studs. Sound isolation, the most effective form of soundproofing available, works by "floating" a mounted wall over the studs using thick steel strips. These steel strips have a channeled shape and varying holes along... --- ### Blue Ribbon Products > View best of show soundproofing materials, sound absorption materials & sound dampening materials.

Soundproof Cow at the Annual CMStival A distinguished educational institute recognized for innovation, leadership and educational excellence, the Career Magnet School in Chambersburg recently invited Soundproof Cow to set up a booth at their annual CMStival. An esteemed event during their Field Day, the Career Magnets School’s (CMS) goal is to provide a “Vendor Village” to represent local businesses to enable a hands-on experience for students with said companies and their contributions to the community. Our team representatives; Kellen Beaver, Senior Account Manager and Wayne Asper, Account Manager, provided product samples and literature about our products and Services. Also, they handed out Soundproof Cow’s signature stress Cows and Cow Tales® to students that stopped by the booth. Asper shares his day, “... was definitely a success. The thought we wanted them to remember was that it takes confidence to be successful at presenting yourself; it is as simple as the initial greeting with someone (a firm handshake, clearly introducing themselves and speaking about their passion). While the CMStival and the booth may be closed, you can still interact with the team by calling the Herd at 1-866-949-9269. 25 Saves On Houzz The Houzz community has saved our photos to their ideabooks 25 or more times!

Leaky Mediums Unwanted sound travels quickly and easily through air (at a speed of approximately 1087 ft. per second at sea level to be exact. ) This is hard to visualize. An easier way to think about sound is to imagine that it is water. Water molds to the space it's in, moving through some substances while being trapped by others. Click here to learn more sound basics. Now picture your windows. If they're poorly sealed, air leaks in and carries sound with it. If light or air can get through then so can sound. Gaps between a door and the frame, holes in the ceiling, and other installation problems all transfer unwanted noise. Find and seal all holes that let in noise before you buy sound blocking materials. You might be able to control your noise issue simply by fixing this problem. A 1-inch square hole in a 10ft x 10ft wall will reduce the soundproofing ability by 30%... simply plugging that hole will improve the perceived sound level by 30%. 2. Using the Wrong Products Sound absorption products soak up sound. They absorb sound energy and prevent them from bouncing off the walls. They improve the quality of the sound within the room.

The largest gap in a wall — and weakest link for soundproofing — is a doorway. Often, the space around the door leaks noise. The space at the bottom of the door is often a much larger gap than the space around the sides, so it allows even more sound to leak through. Adding to the issue is that most interior doors have a hollow core. While this makes them more cost-effective, it causes more noise problems. Even the mechanism of the doorknob can allow sound to pass through. Soundproofing your door helps address these issues. It also provides a helpful ancillary benefit — temperature insulation.... --- ### How to Soundproof a Home > Do you have rooms in your home that are too noisy?

It's not the most effective on its own, but read this guide to learn how you can improve sound isolation. - Published: 2025-05-23 - Modified: 2025-05-21 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/soundproofing-with-drywall/ If you re dealing with noise you do not want — whether it is the TV from the next room or traffic just outside your property — your walls are probably the first place to start soundproofing. And when we talk about walls, drywall is usually the go-to. But how much can it actually help when it comes to soundproofing? The short answer? On its own, not much. But when paired with specialized soundproofing products, drywall can play a big part in creating a quieter, more comfortable space. Here is what to know about soundproofing with drywall before you get started. Can You Use Drywall for Soundproofing? Drywall helps form the structure of most walls. Because it adds mass, it does reduce a little sound. But it is not enough to block out the everyday noise most of us want to escape from — like your neighbor’s music, the washing machine in the hallway or conversations in the next room. That’s because standard drywall offers only a modest level of sound isolation. To put it in perspective, a higher level of sound isolation is needed to significantly reduce the sound transmission class (STC). This term is just a fancy way of measuring how well a material blocks sound. To truly minimize noise transfer, you will generally want materials that offer a much higher level of sound isolation than standard drywall can provide. So if you’re aiming for true soundproofing, drywall alone is not going to cut it. But there are... --- ### How to Block Sound Between Rooms > Do you want to reduce sound between rooms, but aren't sure where to start? Get quality soundproof materials today by browsing our selection of products! - Published: 2025-05-21 - Modified: 2025-05-21 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-block-sound-between-rooms/ Are you a contractor needing advanced soundproof solutions, or a homeowner wanting to reduce ambient noise levels in your living space? It is important to find the right solution for your needs. Blocking sound between rooms requires using the right material and techniques, and we will explore resilient solutions that create serene spaces. Ways Sound Can Escape Imagine sound as visible wavelengths traveling through the air. When they come into contact with any material, such as a wall or ceiling, the sound will dampen, reflect or be absorbed. How the sound reacts depends on the material, which is why you can sometimes hear sound coming from the room next to you. A product's sound transmission class (STC) describes how much sound it will block. The higher the STC rating, the more effective it will be. Walls and ceilings alone often do not have enough dampening or absorbing power to block the sound. Some common ways sound can escape between rooms are through: Gaps and cracks: Sound can travel through the smallest cracks and slits. Keyholes, door slits and wall cracks are all examples of how sound can make its way into the next room. Walls and ceilings: Studs, joists or other structural features allow sound and vibration to pass through easily. Indirect paths: Some indirect paths, like vents, electrical and ductwork act as an easy conduit for vibrations and sounds. Whether you have a central, split or another HVAC system, noise easily radiates through these paths and into the next... --- ### What Is Decoupling? > Decoupling a wall can help reduce the amount of sound that travels across your walls. Learn more about decoupling and how to decouple a wall here. - Published: 2025-05-16 - Modified: 2025-05-16 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/what-is-decoupling/ Decoupling is a building technique that can reduce sound transmission through a wall. A decoupled wall has a buffer separating the drywall layers and studs. This creates an air cavity that stifles structural vibrations and dissipates airborne noises. How Decoupling Works Decoupling leverages the principle of sound isolation, separating physical objects from each other. When layers of a wall touch — either directly or through the studs, a soundwave can vibrate them in unison. Synchronized vibration allows the wave to retain most of its amplitude in the next room. Physically separating the components with space and dampening materials improves transmission loss. Measuring the Results Building materials like drywall receive a sound transmission class (STC) rating to describe their transmission loss capabilities. The STC rating describes the degree to which a material reduces a soundwave's amplitude by the time it reaches the other side. An STC rating of 40 shows that the material's graph resembles the standard for that rating after measuring transmission loss at numerous frequencies and plotting the results. The material can prevent most normal-volume speech from transmitting. The STC scale ranges from 25-65. How to Decouple a Wall Builders increase a wall's STC rating by implementing a few common wall decoupling strategies and other practices that enhance their effects. These are some of the most effective methods and best practices for decoupling walls: Create a Double Stud Wall A double stud wall features two sheets of drywall fastened to a separate set of studs. Both sheets' studs are... --- ### How to Soundproof Vinyl Flooring > Using flooring underlayment will allow you to soundproof your vinyl floors to prevent unwanted sounds. Learn more about how to soundproof vinyl floors. - Published: 2025-05-16 - Modified: 2025-05-16 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-soundproof-vinyl-flooring/ Whether you are being disturbed by sounds coming from the floor below or you want to avoid your neighbors when walking, soundproofing your floors may be beneficial for you. Soundproof Cow offers quality acoustic underlay for vinyl flooring soundproofing solutions. Tools You Will Need to Soundproof Vinyl Flooring If you are preparing to soundproof your vinyl flooring, these tools and materials will make the process much easier: Scraper: You will need a scraper to remove the existing floor before installing underlayment. This tool can effectively clear any excess fragments and adhesives from the subfloor so the soundproofing material lays flat. Utility knife: A utility knife will come in handy to cut and remove carpet, if needed. You will also need one to cut your floor underlayment to the correct size. Acoustic underlayment: The type of acoustic underlayment you choose will determine your project quality. Soundproof Cow recommends Impact Barrier QT for easy installation. Vinyl installation kit: Vinyl flooring is simple to install with the right tools. A rubber mallet, expansion joint spacers and a tapping block will help you install the vinyl accurately and securely. Ways to Soundproof Vinyl Flooring There are several ways to effectively soundproof vinyl flooring, depending on your specific needs or budget. Some of the most popular options include: Adding underlayment: Installing flooring underlayment is one of the most effective soundproofing solutions as it helps to minimize and absorb room noise. You can install underlayment under carpet or vinyl flooring.

Choose Soundproof Cow for acoustic panels that decorate your space and prevent echoing. - Published: 2025-05-09 - Modified: 2025-05-06 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-improve-restaurant-ambience/ When you own a restaurant, it is impossible to ignore the competition. You must create a pleasant environment for customers to enjoy food, drinks and conversation with others. Paying attention to restaurant ambience can be the difference between someone dining with you versus a chain down the street. Here is how to improve a restaurant ambience to drive consistent sales and a positive customer experience. 1. Choose Lighting Carefully A significant part of your restaurant's ambience comes as a result of lighting selections. It is not always about picking out the most decorative and expensive lights on the market. Instead, focus on illuminating spaces for their intended purposes. Decide whether you want to offer a lively dining experience with places to move around or a more intimate setting. Casual dining locations are better suited for bright lights with blue and white hues, whereas dim lights shining yellow and orange provide an elegant and calming vibe for guests. Think about the location of the lights as well. Brightening certain areas can help direct foot traffic, highlight stylish architectural features and draw eyes to available tables. 2. Control Sound Levels Some restaurants draw big crowds and live music. Working in large open spaces can result in reverberations moving between floors, walls and ceilings. This can make it hard for guests to hear performers and people sitting close by. Incorporating solutions like wall-mounted acoustic panels and ceiling acoustic panels lets your space absorb reverberations and reduce echoing. Many acoustic panels are lightweight and... --- ### Your Guide to OITC Ratings > OITC ratings measure low-frequency sound transmission from outdoors to inside. Learn how materials with a higher rating can block traffic and other noises. - Published: 2025-04-30 - Modified: 2025-04-30 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/oitc-ratings/ What Is an OITC Rating? An OITC rating measures the sound transmission rate between external and internal spaces. It targets low-frequency sound loss between 80 and 4,000 Hertz (Hz). OITC Ratings vs. STC Ratings You might be thinking that OITC ratings sound a lot like STC ratings. They are similar because a sound transmission class (STC) rating also measures how well products block airborne sound. Here is a breakdown of how the ratings differ: Date of invention: While STC ratings have been around since 1961, OITC is a much newer system. It was introduced in the '90s to calculate the noise isolation provided by building facades. Type of noise measured: OITC focuses on how exterior noise travels indoors. STC measures sound transmission between spaces — for example, from one room to another. Frequencies: When you need to measure mid-to-low frequencies, OITC has the edge. STC monitors transmission loss for frequencies between 125 and 4,000 Hz. Applications: OITC assesses products or barriers that need to reduce low-frequency sounds. More popular STC ratings appear on everything from soundproofing products to building elements. Both ratings are important for soundproofing. When tackling lower, heavier sounds from the outside, look for a product with a high OITC rating. If you want to stop sound from traveling from one room to another, opt for a high STC-rated product. Contact Us Factors Affecting OITC Ratings Before diving into how professionals measure OITC, it helps to understand the units of measurement. Frequency In the simplest terms, frequency is... --- ### How to Reduce Background Noise for Quality Audio > Background noise is a common challenge for recording artists.

Learn more about acoustic treatments with Soundproof Cow. - Published: 2025-03-14 - Modified: 2025-03-24 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/sound-absorption-vs-diffusion/ Sound reflection causes various acoustic challenges that distort a listener's perception, such as echo and reverberation. Professional acoustic treatments use two distinct methods for controlling a sound wave's interaction with a surface — sound absorption and sound diffusion. Applying the righmix of the two helps control sound energy distribution and improve the sonic experience. What Is Sound Absorption? Sound absorption is the process of mitigating sound reflections by reducing a wave's energy. Sound waves reflect off hard surfaces with enough intensity to travel back into the room, resulting in reverberation and echo. An absorptive surface can force a sound wave to use more energy reflecting off the surface. Most absorbers feature structural qualities — such as pores or fibers — that sound waves can enter easily but have difficulty leaving. The energy these surfaces absorb converts into heat, which dissipates within the material, rather than noise. What Is Sound Diffusion? Sound diffusion is the process of selectively redistributing sound back into a room. Rather than absorb sound waves, sound diffusers use reflection to their advantage. Diffusion promotes uniform sound distribution throughout a space. Many sound diffusers manipulate reflection by layering reflective materials at varied protrusion levels. Each frequency range interacts with the diffuser in a unique and calculated way to optimize its redistribution into the room. In some cases, acoustic diffusion uses a combination of reflection and absorption. Some diffusion materials include absorbent substances to optimize the redistribution of particular frequencies further. Which Is Best for Your Space? Absorption and... --- ### How to Soundproof Tile Floor > Learn to soundproof a room that has tile floors with Soundproof Cow. Our solutions reduce reflections from airborne noise and stifle structural vibrations. - Published: 2025-02-28 - Modified: 2025-03-24 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-soundproof-tile-floors/ Tile floors look great, but they present a few notable acoustic challenges. The good news is that various acoustic treatments work for tile floors. Soundproof Cow is here to help you understand why tile floors cause noise and how to treat them. Understanding Sound's Interaction With Floors Sound energy interacts with tile floors in two forms — impact noise and airborne noise. Each type of interaction has a distinct outcome that calls for an acoustic solution to match. Impact Noise and Tile Floors Impact noise is the structural sound you hear when solid objects collide. A few examples are collisions between the floor and a person's shoes, or from the legs of furniture when it moves. The collision with a heavy boot or a wooden chair's legs causes the floor to vibrate, which anyone on the floor below will notice. Vibrations move from the point of contact to any surface touching the floor, such as the subfloor, joists and the ceiling of the room below. A soft material could soften the impact and noise, but floor tiles are hard — vibrations travel through them easily. Airborne Noise and Tile Floors Airborne noise is a sound wave that travels through the air. Voices, television audio and music from a speaker are all examples of airborne noise. A sound wave moves through the air freely by vibrating air molecules. Dense substances can obstruct a sound wave's airborne path. Some energy from a sound wave can pass through a solid substance, but the... --- ### How to Achieve an Optimal Noise Level for Sleep > Is noise the only thing standing between you and a good night's sleep? Read on to learn how to achieve quality sleep with Soundproof Cow today. - Published: 2025-02-07 - Modified: 2025-03-31 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/achieve-optimal-noise-level-for-sleep/ We need at least seven hours of sleep each night, as it is necessary for our bodies to function. It supports brain function, physical repair, the immune system, mood regulation and cardiovascular health. Loud noises can disrupt your sleep and you will feel the effects the next day. Noise and lack of sleep go hand in hand. Instead of hoping your neighbors or roommates will quiet down, install soundproofing materials and take control of your sleep quality. Effects of Sound on Your Sleep Cycle When we sleep, our brain and body go through four stages. The first three stages gradually bring you to a deeper sleep before entering rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. On average, we each spend 90 to 120 minutes in each stage, fully completing it before moving on to an idyllic deep sleep. High noise levels at night leave an impact on your health — whether they wake you or not. Environmental noise while you sleep can cause a stress response and increase how long you stay in the lighter sleep cycles, reducing or skipping REM altogether. Studies have shown that sleep disturbance correlates with cardiovascular disease, slow metabolism and other significant health conditions. The Optimal Decibel Level for Sleep The optimal noise level for sleep should be 30dB or less. If you require white noise at night, keep it to 50dB or less — much like the noise level of a running shower. The 70-80dB range is where you can begin to damage your sleep cycle.... --- ### Soundproofing Regulations & Compliance Business Owners Should Know > Not sure what soundproofing materials your business space needs to maintain industry compliance?

Industrial noise leads to fatigue, difficulty concentrating or long-term hearing damage. Controlling noise protects those who contribute to these vital sectors. Industrial building owners or managers seeking ways to tame industrial noise, read on. This guide gives you the scoop on curbing noise levels for a happier, more harmonious workplace. What Is Industrial Noise? Industrial noise is generated by factories, construction sites and manufacturing plants. Equipment, heavy machinery or processes produce excessive noise. These noises represent the drive for productivity but can damage human health and the environment. That is why this sound is also referred to as industrial noise pollution. Like air or water pollution, noise pollutes surrounding ecosystems. The National Environment Agency and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) set decibel (dBA) limits for industrial noise control and acoustics. Types of Industrial Noise In industrial settings, noise travels through air, structures, fluids or mechanics. Here are the four types of industrial noise: Airborne: Sound waves travel through the air before hitting your ears. Examples of airborne sounds include buzzing conveyor belts or whirring machinery. Elasticity: Materials under mechanical stress expand, contract and change shape. These materials emit sound as they reform. Think of the sound of... --- ### How to Soundproof a Room for Guitars > Are you building or transforming a space into your guitar room?

Discover absorption strategies with Soundproof Cow. - Published: 2024-12-20 - Modified: 2025-03-24 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/what-is-first-reflection-point/ The first point of reflection is where a sound wave makes first contact with a nearby hard surface. While the sound wave will interact with numerous reflection points in any direction it travels, the first point of reflection is the one that it will meet with the most energy. Where Is the First Point of Reflection? The first point of reflection's location depends on the source and its location within a room. If you stand at the center point of a short wall on one end of a rectangular room and direct your voice toward the parallel short wall, the first point of reflection would likely be matching positions on the side walls. Moving to the left or right will shift the reflection point to the closer wall. Stepping forward will move the reflection points closer to the far wall. If the room is shorter than it is wide, the ceiling or floor could be the first point of reflection instead. Each will have a unique first reflection point, and there will be numerous opportunities for the sound waves to interact with each other and the room's various surfaces. How to Find Reflection Points — The Mirror Test The mirror test is a way to find the first point of reflection for a pair of speakers. This test requires two people and a hand mirror. One person sits or stands in the listening position — a couch or desk chair. The other holds a hand mirror against either adjacent wall... --- ### Benefits of Door Sweeps for Uneven Floors > If you have uneven floors, door sweeps may be a great option for you.

The weatherstripping or existing door sweep isn’t getting the job done, and the gap between the bottom of your door and the floor is so wide that air, and therefore sound, can easily travel back and forth underneath it. The obvious solution to this problem is a quality uneven floor door sweep, such as the kind we offer at Soundproof Cow. But if you have tried a door sweep, you may have encountered a different problem. Older apartments may have wood floors that are not quite level, so there is an uneven door gap. Can a door sweep work for a uneven floor? The answer is yes. Shop Door Sweeps & Seals How Can Door Sweeps Help With Uneven Floors? You may find that with an uneven floor, your door sweep only blocks some of the air from getting through while leaving an unacceptable gap where it does not meet the floor. A sweep that leaves an uneven gap under the door is a little better than no sweep at all. If you install your sweep lower to cover that gap, the door may not be able to open or close. However, your door sweep can still solve your sound transmission problem if you make a few adjustments.

Shop for STC improvement solutions with Soundproof Cow. - Published: 2024-12-06 - Modified: 2025-03-31 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-achieve-stc-rating-50-and-above/ Soundproofing projects work toward one primary goal — preventing sound from leaving one room and entering another. Construction contractors and acoustic product manufacturers target precise specifications for high-level soundproofing. But how can you tell which products offer the best performance? The answer is in their sound transmission class (STC) rating. What Is a Sound Transmission Class (STC) Rating? Any acoustic product that prevents transmission will feature an STC rating, a numerical score that categorizes its soundproofing performance. A product earns its STC rating by undergoing ASTM E413 Classification Standard testing procedures. To determine the STC rating, the testers place the material between a speaker and a receiver. The speaker emits sound at a specific decibel (dB) level, and the receiver records the sound from the other side of the soundproofing product. Testers record the difference between the dB level the speaker emitted and the dB level that the receiver recorded to determine a transmission loss (TL) value. The process repeats for 16 distinct frequencies in total. The testers enter each TL dB level and frequency into a chart, forming an STC curve. They then compare the product's curve against standard STC reference curves. The product receives the rating for the reference curve it most closely matches. A product with an STC rating of 20 offers inconsequential transmission resistance — a listener would be able to hear and understand soft speech coming from the other side of the wall. At 60 or higher, the product has impressive soundproofing capabilities. What Does... --- ### How to Soundproof Stairs > Noisy stairs are a nuisance at home and at work.

Reduce disruptive noise with sound absorption products from Soundproof Cow. - Published: 2024-11-01 - Modified: 2025-03-24 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-reduce-flutter-echoes/ Flutter echoes are among the most necessary issues to address in a recording space, auditorium, gymnasium, hallway or any other space where sound clarity is paramount. Soundproof Cow has tips and materials to help you go from flutter to udder. What Are Flutter Echoes and Why Do They Happen? A flutter echo is a phenomenon that occurs when a sound wave reflects off of multiple surfaces numerous times in succession. High and mid-range frequencies are susceptible to reflecting off of hard surfaces. Fluttering is most common when two hard, parallel surfaces are close together. Sound reflects off surfaces at an angle equal to its angle of arrival. Hard surfaces allow sound waves to retain more energy than softer surfaces upon reflection. When two hard surfaces are parallel, the sound wave can reflect between them numerous times. Moving the surfaces closer together increases the flutter speed. A long, narrow concrete tunnel can quickly create echo flutters that last multiple seconds, which is a unique occurrence. Echo flutters are less exaggerated in common residential and commercial spaces but can still become a profound disruption. The Trouble With Flutter Echoes Echo flutters can range from an inconvenient distraction to a total disruption, depending on the circumstance. Fluttering in Recording Studios Eliminating flutter echoes is crucial in a professional or home recording studio.

What Is a Class A Fire Rating? The Class A fire rating indicates that a product meets the highest standard for preventing flame spread and smoke development. These materials are slow to burn, making them some of the safest to use in buildings. By burning slowly, they extend the time a building's inhabitants have to escape during a fire. The ASTM E84 Test Class A products earn their rating through the ASTM E84 burn test. During this test, the testers place the material inside a steel box called a Steiner Tunnel. The Steiner Tunnel is 24 feet long and features a flame ignitor at one end. The testers then burn the material at one end for 10 minutes. They measure how far past the ignitor's initial reach the flame travels after that time and how quickly it spreads during the test. ASTM E84 evaluators score the material using the Flame-Spread Index (FSI). It compares the material's performance to other materials on a 0-200 scale, where 0 is the most flame resistant or lowest flame spread. FSI scores of 25 or less qualify a material for the highest ASTM E84 for the highest rating — Class A. Why a Class A Fire Rating Matters for... --- ### Acoustic Treatment and Soundproofing for Podcasters > Learn about acoustic treatment and soundproofing for podcasters.

With so many podcasts, recording one might seem simple with the Internet, a microphone, and great ideas. However, if you have been podcasting for a while, you know how challenging it can be to achieve good audio quality. Notice how recorded audio might sound roomy and muffled? This sound quality is caused by reverb, which is reflected sound bouncing off different surfaces. Excessive reverb results in patchy audio that can be improved for a better listening experience. If you are setting up a soundproof booth for podcasting, you need to reduce reverb on surfaces like walls and ceilings. To learn about improving audio quality, explore the basics of acoustic treatment and effective soundproofing materials for your podcast setup. Understanding Acoustic Treatment and Soundproofing Acoustic treatment refers to improvements made to enhance a room's sound quality. Because each recording space is different, effective acoustic treatment involves room design and using materials that absorb and diffuse sound. Here’s how to distinguish sound absorption from sound diffusion: Sound absorption: When sound travels through a wall with a porous material, it loses energy and weakens. The sound is absorbed and cannot escape the wall, resulting in a quieter space. Sound absorption materials like foam or fiberglass can be placed on walls and other reflective surfaces to keep sound waves from bouncing off. Sound diffusion: Sound that spreads from one area to another is called diffusion. When sound energy spreads out evenly in a room, it... --- ### Soundproofing Goes Digital - What Is Sound Masking? > Sound masking uses ambient sound to lessen distracting noise and enhance privacy.

Imagine you are in your favorite coffee shop during the morning rush. The combination of conversation and machine whirring should be deafening. Instead, a soothing background buzz somehow makes all the chatter around you disappear. That is similar to what sound masking does in an office. It slips in an airflow-like sound to dim keyboard clacks and loud conversations. It is like turning down the volume on distracting noises without realizing it. The result is a more private space that lets you focus without all that noise competing for your attention. Sound masking systems benefit open floorplan offices, hospitals, and academic institutions. This go-to guide covers everything you need to know about this digital form of soundproofing. What Is Sound Masking? Sound masking introduces ambient noise to match human speech frequencies, which are between 500 and 4,000 hertz. The types of sound used in masking need to meet specific criteria: Random: The brain attaches meaning to certain sounds, like a car engine revving. Masking uses neutral sounds that the human ear does not recognize. By using random noise, it makes it easier to ignore. Wide frequency range: Disruptive noises span a wide range of frequencies. The sound used in masking... --- ### Acoustics and Retail Spaces > Retail acoustic treatments can reduce distracting reverberations, making spaces quieter and more comfortable.

Work with us to access Green Glue for your next renovation project. - Published: 2024-10-04 - Modified: 2025-03-31 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-does-green-glue-work-for-soundproofing/ Green Glue is an effective soundproofing material that contractors or DIYers can use to improve a room's acoustic qualities. Sound energy can pass through surfaces and cause that surface to vibrate. With Green Glue, you can reduce vibrations inside the walls so that sound stays in or out of the room. What Is Green Glue and How Does It Work? Green Glue is a viscous liquid compound that, like typical glue, connects two objects or surfaces. However, unlike standard glue, adhesive strength is not one of its primary benefits. It is a sound-deadening tool. Technically not glue, Green Glue prevents energy from transferring between two surfaces. It does not harden like standard glue. Instead, it retains most of its viscosity to dissipate sound better. The light green color is subtle but present enough to earn its branded name from the Green Glue Company. When Is Green Glue Useful? Green Glue is ideal as a sound-deadening solution in homes and commercial buildings. Builders can use it when constructing rooms that require a high level of control over sound transmission. For example, it can help prevent noise from entering a room through the walls or retain noise inside a loud rehearsal space. Green Glue is also non-toxic, low in volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and odorless for safe use. Shop Green Glue Does Green Glue Soundproofing Work? Yes, Green Glue is an effective product with soundproofing qualities. Green Glue offers sound deadening or dampening, which is the process of reducing vibrations to prevent... --- ### How Thick Should Acoustic Panels Be? > An acoustic panel's thickness influences the percentage of sound it absorbs at different frequencies. Learn more about choosing the ideal panel thickness. - Published: 2024-10-01 - Modified: 2025-03-31 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-thick-should-acoustic-panels-be/ Acoustic panels make a room quieter by absorbing sound energy so that less noise reflects off hard surfaces. A panel's thickness is one of its most important qualities for determining its absorption capabilities. But how thick should an acoustic panel be? Explore sound absorption and acoustic panel thickness in this guide. Understanding How Acoustic Panels Work Sound travels as a wave, moving air molecules until it reaches your ears or any nearby surface. Hard surfaces like walls, floors, and ceilings reflect sound at an angle that mirrors the angle or approach. Sound reflections create reverberation inside a room, which can fill an empty space with excess noise that can distract its occupants or cause sounds to blend. Acoustic panels absorb sound energy, minimizing the sound's amplification and mitigating reverberation. While there are numerous types of acoustic panels with different shapes and sizes, they all feature an absorptive material such as foam or fiberglass. Upon impact with sound energy, a foam panel's pores or a fiberglass panel's fibers vibrate. The vibration causes friction, converting sound energy into kinetic energy that dissipates across the surface of the panel. Noise Reduction Coefficient Depending on the panel's thickness and perforation size, a percentage of the sound energy will still reflect. Every acoustic panel features a Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) rating that describes its average sound absorption on a 0 to 1 scale. An NRC rating of 1. 0 indicates 100% absorption, whereas a rating of 0. 5 means the panel absorbs half of the... --- ### Top Benefits of Acoustic Panels > This post covers the top benefits of acoustic panels to help you understand how they can benefit you in your personal and professional settings. - Published: 2024-09-24 - Modified: 2025-03-14 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/benefits-of-acoustic-panels/ Acoustic panels help to reduce noise and improve acoustics. They have two main functions. The first is soundproofing-although not designed solely for soundproofing, these panels absorb noise. The second is they improve the acoustic quality of sound by reducing reverberation and echoes. Acoustic panels are ideal in spaces like offices, recording studios or home theaters to help improve sound quality and overall acoustics in a room.

Explore the relationship between temperature and acoustics in our guide, and shop Soundproof Cow today. - Published: 2024-09-24 - Modified: 2025-01-29 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/impact-humidity-temperature-room-acoustics/ Seasonal fluctuations in a room's temperature can make your speakers sound different in winter vs. summer. Meanwhile, a pocket of cold air forming in a warm room can impact how you perceive sound the same day. It is important to maintain a consistent temperature in rooms like auditoriums, theaters and studios where sound quality is a top priority. How Does Temperature Affect Sound? Temperature affects sound by altering the medium through which sound travels — the air. Cold air slows sound energy, while warm air allows it to travel faster. Understanding why this occurs requires a basic understanding of how sound travels and how temperature determines the air's density. The Speed of Sound at Room Temperature When a source makes a sound, it releases energy. The energy moves through the air's countless molecules, creating a sound wave. The wave travels at the speed of sound, which is around 343-346 meters per second at room temperature. The Density of Warm and Cold Air When the room's temperature increases, the air becomes less dense. Put another way, decreasing the temperature increases density. The decrease in density makes warm air molecules more conducive to motion — such as sound waves — than cold air. The Speed of Sound in Warm Air vs. Cold Air The speed of sound and temperature go hand in hand. Sound energy travels more easily when the air is less dense. Therefore, sound travels faster through warm air and slower through cold air. When the air gets close to... --- ### Why Your Soundproofing Did Not Work > If your soundproofing did not work, the answer could be as simple as using the wrong products.

Use this soundproofing guide to set up your interview room for sonic success! - Published: 2024-06-26 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/soundproofing-interview-rooms/ Common Acoustic Concerns in Interview Rooms An interview room needs to have three critical acoustic characteristics. It should produce crisp, clear voice recordings, keep private discussions within the room, and protect interviewees from distracting outside noises. To create the optimal interview room setup, you must address the following audio issues. 1. Outside Noise Interference Traffic noise, the humming of the air conditioner, and the chatter of people in the hallway can disrupt the stillness of your interview room. Unwanted sound interference, especially overheard conversations, can prove immensely distracting to the parties having a discussion. It can also compromise the quality of audio recordings and leave you with unintelligible or unusable quotes. 2. Interview Room Privacy The best interview rooms prevent outside noise infiltration while keeping whatever is said within the room. Interviews can range from light-hearted to deeply personal and even confidential. Therefore, your interview room's design and sound absorption treatment should let you and your guests talk freely and openly. 3. Reverberation Even without external noise disruptions, voice recordings can still be compromised by an untreated, smooth wall or a lofty ceiling. When sound waves reflect off flat surfaces, they bounce around, repeating and overlapping, creating reverberation. This reverberation produces a drawn-out echoic sound that muddies speech, making it harder to hear your interviewee's words. People in the room will experience this reverberation, and it will affect audio recordings, too.

The first step to a smoother and quieter cruise is figuring out where those pesky vibrations come from. They could be standard effects of the engine at work or the result of mechanical issues. If engine troubles cause worsening vibrations, you will need to prioritize maintenance and repairs. The Engine Room The primary source of vibration and shaking is the engine room. As engines run, they cause constant vibrations that create shaking and a humming sound. If you have a larger vessel, the generator set, or genset, is another source of vibration. This engine powers the generator onboard, which powers the AC system and other features. The engine room pumps and compressors also move about and generate quite a bit of vibration that moves through the structures holding them in place. The mounted fuel tanks will also shake and rattle as the vibrations in the engine room move through all the structures. Engine Misalignment While some level of vibration is normal, excessive vibration and differing frequencies can spell trouble. They can also seriously put a damper on your boating excursion. Monitoring vibration levels and frequencies is wise to keep your boat's engine... --- ### How to Soundproof a Boiler Room > Discover how to soundproof a boiler room with methods like stud walls and sound isolation systems.

You can add soundproofing during the building or renovation process or make minor changes without disrupting the existing home structures. Soundproofing and sound absorption can both improve your experience in a log cabin. Soundproofing Solutions Soundproofing solutions aim to confine sound within a space. Installing soundproofing solutions in a cabin can contain the sound in a specific room, preventing noise from entering or leaving. Soundproofing can improve privacy for a particular room or reduce noise coming from outside the structure. Here are a few ways to soundproof a log cabin: Insulate the walls: Add soundproof insulation to the walls to dampen sound in the interior and exterior walls of the cabin. Soundproof the ceiling: Options for soundproofing a ceiling include acoustic panels, clouds and soundproof insulation. Add flooring materials: Floor joist isolators or soundproof materials can stop sound from moving through the floor. Seal windows: Seal air gaps with an acoustic sealant and insulation tape. Use laminated glass for the highest level of sound reduction. Soundproof the doors: Add seals around the door frames, use acoustic caulk and add door sweeps on the bottom edges. Add mass: Use dense materials — like additional layers of drywall — in walls, ceilings and floors to reduce sound transfer.

Discover tips for incorporating the natural environment into your design. - Published: 2024-04-19 - Modified: 2025-01-31 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/incorporating-natural-environment-in-soundproofing-design/ If you are working on a soundproofing design to achieve a more quiet and peaceful residential or commercial space, there are several methods and natural materials you can use. Tips for Integrating Nature in Soundproofing Design Incorporating the natural environment into your soundproofing design has never been easier. Here are some top tips on how you can get started. Natural Soundscapes Biophilic design focuses on bringing sounds from nature into a specific space to mask unwanted noise. Sounds like birds chirping, water splashing, or the wind blowing can create a peaceful environment that helps you manage acoustics more effectively. Also, when used with other acoustical methods, a natural soundscape can improve both privacy and productivity by absorbing and blocking unwanted sounds. Natural Soundproofing and Sound Absorption Materials There are several natural materials that are effective at absorbing and dissipating sound. One of the best is cotton. It is lightweight and dense yet able to absorb a great deal of sound energy. When it's installed, sound has to pass through the cotton insulation, which converts into heat. The heat dissipates through the insulation, helping to reduce unwanted noise. Natural Materials for Soundproofing At Soundproof Cow, we have natural soundproofing materials that can help MOOve you in the direction of creating a much quieter space. Here are two of the materials we have available: Quiet Batt® Quiet Batt® Soundproofing Insulation is made using 80% recycled cotton fibers.

Shop soundproofing materials from Soundproof Cow today! - Published: 2024-04-05 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/best-soundproofing-noise-reduction-for-tractors/ Excessive noise is more than a little irritating — frequent exposure to loud noises can contribute to issues like hearing loss and hearing-related health conditions like tinnitus. If you operate heavy machinery, these risks are no mystery to you, but that doesn't make them any less annoying. Luckily, there's a simple way to reduce the negative impact of noise: soundproofing your tractor. In this article, we'll explore the best ways to minimize tractor noise. Common Tractor Noises and Why You Should Soundproof Your Tractor It is no secret. Tractors are loud. Tractors with a cab can expose operators to 85-decibel noise levels, while a cabless tractor can expose drivers to more than 100 decibels of sound. In either case, it's not great for your ears. According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), exposure to 85 decibels of noise for longer than eight hours can lead to hearing loss. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) recommends limiting exposure to noises above 100 decibels to 15 minutes or less to protect hearing health. Tractor noise is mostly the fault of the engine. For one, diesel engines are typically louder than gasoline engines, partly thanks to the combustion process. Then there are all the engine components, like bearings, belts and cylinders, that vibrate. Exhaust gases and the flow of hydraulic fluids also contribute to tractor noise. And as the tractor runs, these normal vibrations can cause rattling and increase noise levels. Put together, a tractor is one noisy... --- ### Tips for Soundproofing a Drop Ceiling > If you're experiencing unwanted noise, consider soundproofing your drop ceiling.

It functions as a secondary ceiling that's hung below the main one. While the set of tiles can help hide anything from the wiring to the plumbing system, it's not really designed to block sounds effectively. If you want to learn more about how to soundproof a drop ceiling, Soundproof Cow has you covered. Discover some of our top tips for reducing unwanted noise and improving the acoustics in rooms with dropped ceilings. Tips for Soundproofing Drop Ceilings Before you soundproof a drop ceiling, you will want to identify where the unwanted noise is coming from. Usually, sounds enter through the ceiling, but they can also travel through other areas, such as beams. You will use different soundproofing methods depending on where exactly the sound originates. The two main types of noise are: Impact noise: When people walk around in an upper room, their footsteps will cause vibrations. This energy travels through the floor into the space below. You will want to add mass and density to reduce those sounds and minimize the impact. Airborne noise: This noise comes from the room above. It can be any type of sound, ranging from people talking to music coming from a speaker. The noise travels through the air, which is why soft, absorbent materials are used to stop the sounds from passing to the room below. Best Materials to Use When Soundproofing a Suspended Ceiling Several different types of materials can be used... --- ### How to Design the Perfect Game Room > Looking to add a game room to your home?

For larger game rooms, decide how you want to split things up. Aesthetics and decor: What kind of theme will you have? From family-friendly colors to walls adorned with your favorite game art, the sky's the limit. Lighting: Choose your lighting to fit your games. A backlit TV or monitor works great for video games, while some well-placed pendant lights can help you see every board game piece in crisp clarity. Noise level: Games like air hockey, pool or arcade games can get pretty loud, and outside noise puts a damper on the experience for nearly any game. If you use a mic for chatting or streaming your gameplay, your acoustics will also affect how others hear you. Think about what sounds will be going in and out of the room. Consider soundproofing and sound-absorbing solutions to create the best... --- ### Noise Reduction for Racquetball Courts > Racquetball courts are known for being loud.

For example, if you've installed soundproofing materials in your home office and can still hear noises coming from the kitchen, there's a sound leak somewhere. Or, if you haven't added soundproofing materials but one room in your home is louder than the others, there's likely a sound leak. A number of different problems can cause sound leaks.

With a playroom in your home, you can keep all of your little ones' toys in one space where they can have fun while you keep the rest of the home clutter-free.

Learn the most effective soundproofing solutions for open-plan rooms with Soundproof Cow. - Published: 2024-01-05 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/ways-reduce-noise-open-plan-house/ Open floor plans create a sense of architectural connectivity while helping those inhabiting it feel more connected. Wherever you sit or stand in an open room, you'll have a direct line of sight and communication with others inside. As advantageous as open floor plans can be, they also present some acoustic challenges. In this post, we'll discuss the noise hurdles that open room plans create and the strategies you can use to control sound. Noise Challenges in Rooms With an Open Floor Plan Open floor plans allow sound waves to travel without interruption. This sonic mobility becomes an issue when the room is full of hard, flat surfaces. Sound waves will reflect off of any flat surface, causing an echo. As a room's size increases, the echoes have more room to travel, causing them to elongate and reverberate. Open floor plan rooms have it all — hard floors, ceilings and walls with plenty of space between them. Sound reflections reduce clarity as the sound wave travels further from its source. Your loved ones' voices, audio from the television and music from your speaker will be more difficult for your ears and brain to discern. Beyond sound reflections, open rooms also allow noise from one area to easily reach another. A person doing homework at the dining room table will hear the television on the other end of the room at full blast. There's a need for a way to reduce excess noise within the space.

Improve sound quality: Soundproofing can help make the space more effective for communication. Your voice can travel easily throughout the room as you give instructions during a class. If you're using music to create a soothing atmosphere, soundproofing can enhance the quality, reduce echo or reverb, and ensure a crisp and clear sound. Promote better concentration: When you do away with noisy distractions, students can concentrate better during class and have a positive experience overall.

Use our guide to help you choose the right acoustic panels for the job! - Published: 2023-11-28 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/what-to-consider-when-buying-acoustic-panels/ Acoustic panels are sound-absorbing materials that help improve your space's acoustics by reducing unwanted noise and echo. Whether you're setting up a home recording studio, improving your home theater's sound quality or enhancing the environment of a commercial space, you need the right tools for the job. What to Consider When Buying Acoustic Panels When you're looking for the right acoustic panels, you need to keep several important factors in mind. Acoustic panels come in dozens of types, placements, and qualities to ensure you get a configuration that maximizes your comfort. Rooms made of hard material do little to keep sound from traveling — without acoustic panels, the sound will bounce freely in loud, mixed waves around the room. Having custom acoustic panels setup helps reduce reverb and helps to give you that clear audio you're looking for. Let's take a look at some of the key factors to consider when finding the best sound panels: 1. Panel Type Panel type affects sound absorption and quality. Each type has its own features, costs and drawbacks: Foam panels: These are an extremely common panel for sound absorption. They're lightweight, easy to install and come in different thicknesses and shapes. Foam panels are great at reducing echo and improving sound quality in spaces like home studios, home theaters or offices. Fabric-wrapped panels: These panels have an outer fabric layer that enhances aesthetics. They're highly effective at sound absorption and have lots of customization options for fabric color and pattern.

For example, you may consider converting your garage into an impromptu home theater. Or, if one of your kids needs an isolated study area, you might convert the spare bedroom for this purpose. Considering other household members is important when deciding on aesthetic soundproofing. You want the area to serve its function while offering comfort, privacy and visual stimulation for the occupants inside. Commercial Aesthetic Soundproofing Applications Commercial areas that require soundproofing include meeting rooms, boardrooms, and offices in corporate settings and professional recording studios in the music industry. Other business applications where the aesthetic appeal is as important as ensuring it's soundproof include: Restaurants: Secure, soundproof restaurant spaces allow patrons to enjoy meals in intimate settings. Hotels: Hotels may offer guests phone booths and special conference rooms for private meetings. Universities: Libraries, computer rooms and study areas in universities benefit from the dual functionality of aesthetic soundproofing.

A listening room is a dedicated space where you can listen to music without the interference of outside noise — or bothering others with your music. For most, the purpose of a listening room is to have a private, soundproof space where they can listen to music without disturbing anyone else. These rooms are acoustically arranged to reduce echo for clarity. Professionals can test their high-quality audio equipment to ensure a sound investment — pun intended. Music producers with private studios need listening rooms to mix and produce tracks, while podcasters require flawless sound quality to record their discussions. Regardless of who uses it, the purpose of a listening room remains — to provide users with incomparable sound quality. Benefits of a Listening Room A listening room offers numerous benefits, such as: Immersive sound experience: With the right audio system and efficient soundproof materials to produce high-quality sound, users can expect an unparalleled immersive sound experience.

Shop our extensive selection of sound proofing materials today! - Published: 2023-11-03 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-soundproof-an-old-home/ After a long week of work, you're looking forward to sleeping in. However, at 6 a. m. on the dot, you're awoken by the sound of the garbage truck making its weekly rounds. After some grumbling, you fall back asleep, only to wake up a second time from the sound of your neighbor starting their lawnmower. Then you hear the kids start to move around upstairs and the sound of water rushing through the pipes as they start their day. Just like that, your chance to sleep in is gone. While these early mornings may be typical if you have an older home, they don't have to be. By installing soundproofing materials, you can block unwanted noise and continue sleeping soundly. 3 Common Reasons to Soundproof an Old House For most people, their house is a safe space that allows them to relax in peace and, more importantly, quiet. However, if your home is older or lacks proper soundproofing, it can be hard to relax when there are frequent loud noises, such as: 1. Members of Your Household Loud noises often come from inside your home. For example, your partner may like to stay up late watching TV while you prefer to go to bed early. Or, perhaps you work from home while caring for young children who like to make their presence known. Excessive noise when you're trying to sleep or focus can complicate both tasks, making it essential to soundproof your bedroom or office space. 2. Neighbors Whether... --- ### Steps to Soundproof a Toilet > Soundproofing a toilet in your home can help you sleep easier and prevent distractions. Soundproof Cow talks about methods for quieting your bathroom easily. - Published: 2023-10-20 - Modified: 2025-01-14 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/steps-soundproof-toilet/ With some toilet flushes reaching over 76 decibels, these are some of the loudest parts of your home. Whether you need to focus on work or school or remove this disruption from your sleep routine, learning how to soundproof a toilet is worthwhile. Here's how to make flushes more discreet at all times of the day. 1. Fill Gaps Around Your Toilet It's possible your toilet is creating a headache due to excess rattling. This noise could be coming from where its hardware attaches to the floor or where the base of the bowl meets the ground. Depending on your bathroom setup, you might explore options for filling gaps with noise-proofing compounds. If you're in the process of redoing your bathroom or you want to update the flooring, you can apply soundproofing glues and adhesives to fill these gaps in a cost-effective way and reduce vibrations traveling between surfaces. 2. Add a Seal or Sweep Under the Bathroom Door Home bathrooms are often close to living rooms, bedrooms and kitchens, so a loud toilet may disrupt movies, games and conversation. Also, your guests may be embarrassed to use the bathroom when your toilet can be heard from nearby. A simple solution to this problem is to fasten a door seal or sweep below the bathroom door. Seals and sweeps make it harder for sound to travel from one room to another, as they close off the gaps between doors and the floor. This solution is also helpful because attaching the... --- ### How to Turn a Closet Into a Sound Booth/Recording Booth > Need to record your next podcast episode but don't want to splurge on a recording studio? You can use your closet! Learn how to create a recording closet. - Published: 2023-10-17 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-turn-closet-into-sound-recording-booth/ Whether you're a YouTuber, podcaster, filmmaker or musician, you need a well-designed recording space to produce high-quality audio. But, because professional studio fees can reach up to $200 an hour, most freelance recording artists face a huge barrier to entry. Fortunately, you can create your own recording studio right in the comfort of your own home. All you need is an open closet and your imagination. Can a Closet Make a Good Recording Space? While recording in a closet may not seem as glamorous as working from a professional recording studio, it can be a great option for anyone who needs to record high-quality audio on a budget. You can use any closet in your home as long as it comfortably fits your equipment and anyone who will record with you. Before you set up your mic and workstation, though, you'll need to make sure the space is ready for recording. Installing sound control equipment can help you create the right environment for producing high-quality audio, even on a limited budget. There are two types of sound control: Sound absorption: Sound absorbing equipment captures the energy from sound waves as they travel through space, reducing echo and excess noise so it's easier to hear what you're doing. Most sound-absorbing materials are soft and porous, such as foams, sponges and acoustic fiberglass. Soundproofing: Soundproofing equipment reflects sound waves to "trap" them within a space — so, for example, any noise you make in your studio will remain within the studio. This... --- ### What Are the Best Soundproof Materials for Outdoor Installations? > Do you want to soundproof your outdoor pool, dining area or concert venue?

It's essentially what enables our brains to understand and respond to all the noises around us. When sound waves enter our ears, they cause our eardrums to vibrate, which sends signals through the tiny hair cells deep within our ears all the way to our brains. Aside from increasing privacy, soundproofing helps us create perfect spaces for psychoacoustics. And since the great outdoors is full of noises — busy streets, playing children and mooing cows, to name a few — we could all use a quiet space to unwind. That's why using the right outdoor soundproofing materials is so important. Let's explore how to use these materials in different situations to get the best psychoacoustic setup. Call Us Common Outdoor Areas for Soundproofing Soundproofing materials can help you create a peaceful outdoor environment. Here are some examples of outdoor soundproofing use cases: Outdoor dining areas: In nice weather, everyone wants to sit outside to enjoy their meal. Restaurants and cafes can use soundproofing materials to create a cozy, intimate atmosphere that allows customers to focus on their dining partners. Pools: With all the splashing and shouting, outdoor pools can get pretty loud. Adding outdoor sound-dampening materials around your pool can help create a more relaxing space for those looking to unwind.

Check out our Beginner's Checklist for the Perfect Home Recording Studio! - Published: 2023-10-16 - Modified: 2025-01-14 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/home-recording-studio-checklist/ A decade or two ago, the idea of creating your own home recording studio might have seemed prohibitively expensive. In this hi-tech computer age, though, just about everything is possible — even the ability to make a home studio of your very own without breaking the bank. In fact, with just nine basic items, you can get started on your quest to make a home studio. What Do I Need for a Home Studio? Here’s what you need to build a basic recording studio at home: 1. A Computer This equipment is essential. The affordability of the home computer is what makes an inexpensive home recording studio possible. Of course, it’s still an expense, so if you already have a computer that will work, you may just want to start with the one you have. Because faster is better, give that computer a good system check and get rid of anything you don’t need that might be slowing it down. 2. Audio Interface (split and expanded) You’ll use the audio interface to connect the computer to what you’re actually using to make the music. An audio interface is a USB device that bridges instruments or microphones and your computer. This equipment features microphone preamps that bring mic and instrument level signals up to line level. Using an audio interface allows you to record a clear, strong signal to your computer. 3. Digital Audio Workstation The Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) is the reason for the computer. It’s the software you’ll use... --- ### How to Soundproof a Backyard Office Shed > Build a soundproof backyard office with this step-by-step guide.

This investment turns your setup into an environment where you can enjoy deep workflows and confidently dial into conference calls with reduced background noise. If you are wondering how to soundproof your backyard office shed, we have you covered.

But First: Some Design Tips To prepare for the building and soundproofing phase of your new backyard office, you will need to plan the design. Consider how you will use the shed to determine how big it needs to be. Will you need a desktop computer and a printer? A couch or an armchair? Instruments or music equipment? How much storage space is necessary? A good-sized office shed is 120 square feet, offering enough space for your desk, a small sofa and a mini fridge to keep some food and refreshments close. Remember that safety is crucial throughout this process. Adhere to the manufacturer's instructions to ensure you have a successful build. Also,... --- ### Which Acoustic Foam Shape Is Best? > Acoustic foam works wonders for sound treatment projects, but there are multiple options to choose from. Soundproof Cow goes over the benefits of foam shapes. - Published: 2023-10-06 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/which-acoustic-foam-shape-is-best/ Acoustic foam is a useful tool for mitigating unwanted sounds in residential homes. Professionals in multiple industries also rely on acoustic foam for tasks like recording high-quality audio, mitigating echo in large rooms or improving the way sound moves from a source to an audience. While there are similarities between these products on the market, it's vital to know that not all acoustic foams are manufactured the same way. Most foam cutouts are engineered to treat specific frequencies. Here's what you need to know about acoustic panel shapes and when you should use them. 1. Wedge Foam Panels Wedge panels are easy to identify based on their triangular shapes. You'll likely find these products helpful in small spaces like bedrooms, studio apartments and sound booths. Placing wedge foam panels along floors, ceilings and corners can help you hear sound from speakers, televisions and similar sources without low-end interference. It's wise to shy away from placing wedge foam panels in large open spaces, as these solutions could result in sounds moving in unpredictable patterns. 2. Egg Crate Foam Panels Egg crate foam products get their name from their resemblance to the containers you'd see at a grocery store. Most of the time, these acoustic foam patterns feature multiple divots — making them superior compared to their wedge foam counterparts. You can use egg crate foam panels in similar environments to the ones you'd use wedge foam styles, such as recording studio control rooms, gaming rooms and home theaters. These panels have... --- ### Ways to Reduce Pickleball Court Noise > Controlling the volume of a pickleball game requires a careful approach. Soundproof Cow talks tips for indoor and outdoor courts.

Entering a league or playing for the thrill of it is sure to provide an exciting time, but it's no secret the ball hitting the court is noisy. There are a few known pickleball noise solutions you can consider to manage unwanted sound. No matter if you're playing on an indoor or outdoor court, this is your guide to pickleball noise reduction methods. Common Pickleball Noises Pickleball balls are created using plastics and polymer materials. The game may be similar to tennis in its rules, but the harder pickleball ball can definitely be heard by people surrounding your court. Each time the ball hits the ground or a paddle, there is an audible popping noise others could find annoying if it echoes. In doubles matches, there's a good chance players will shout to communicate with their partners or even celebrate after earning points. This poses an issue if your court is open in the early morning or after dark. Free Acoustic Analysis Types of Pickleball Noise You're Dealing With When focusing on pickleball sound mitigation, it's helpful to know what types of noise are at play: Impact noise: This describes the sound heard after one object makes contact with a surface.

Budget, lighting, flooring, furnishings and color schemes are all key aspects to think about as you create a cohesive, comfortable and visually pleasing space. Proper sound absorption is another essential factor to account for. Excess noise can disrupt everyday activities in residential or commercial buildings decreasing productivity. Thanks to interior acoustic panels, there's no need for building occupants and visitors to have a cow over noisy neighbors, loud music or other sound disturbances. Discover how acoustic panels work and how you can use them to design your interior space. How Acoustic Panels Work When sound waves come into contact with a hard surface — such as a floor, window or wall — they bounce off and reflect back into the room. This causes prolonged reverberation times and echoing. As you can imagine, this leads to noisy, chaotic spaces and poor acoustic performance. People may struggle to talk, hear each other and concentrate on important tasks. Acoustic panels are large pieces of material that muffle airborne sound waves. They restrict echo and reverberation in a room. Interior acoustic panels absorb the sound waves instead of reflecting them. When sound waves hit an acoustic panel, they become trapped inside the porous material, decreasing the sound reflected back into the space. Acoustic panels' construction aims to dampen sound reflections while enhancing acoustic quality. They prevent noise from bouncing off hard surfaces. You can integrate acoustic... --- ### Is It Better to Soundproof Your Floor or Ceiling? > Soundproofing floors versus ceilings give different results.

Explore our products! - Published: 2023-09-15 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/better-to-soundproof-floor-or-ceiling/ Whether you're in a residential or commercial space, noise from neighbors or your hobbies can get out of hand. Not everyone has time to experiment with soundproofing or sound-dampening projects, so it's good to know what's worth spending your money on. Is it better to soundproof your floor or ceiling? The answer depends. Your Goal for Soundproofing Anytime you're soundproofing a room, evaluate your goal. Are you trying to stop noise from leaving your space or prevent outside noise from coming in? If people below can hear your footsteps or there is an echo when you're talking, soundproof the floor. When upstairs neighbors are too loud, you can feel vibrations from people moving, or the sound of pets running around gets old, soundproof your ceiling. Soundproofing a Floor There are a few ways you can soundproof a floor. 1. Acoustic Underlayment Acoustic underlayment materials are designed to sit under tile, laminate, stone, hardwood flooring and carpet. From softening footsteps to stopping accidental drops and waking your downstairs neighbors, acoustic flooring underlayment solutions give you the flexibility to treat surfaces with products in multiple thicknesses. Our types of acoustic flooring underlayment include: Impact Barrier QT Flooring Underlayment: Install it under hardwood, tile, carpet, laminate and more.

That’s because concrete is one of the most common building structures used throughout the country for both homes and businesses. Not quite sure if your walls are concrete or plaster? A quick knock should do the trick! When you tap on your walls, a concrete wall will not echo nor be easy to move or impact. Drywall and plaster are simple to affect, and you can produce holes with minimal effort. How Soundproof Is Concrete? Concrete is the standard building material for a reason. It's sturdy and provides withstanding use over long periods of time. Concrete also boasts versatile properties that make it well-suited for many different environments and surroundings. Most consumers love that this material doesn't require a significant amount of money out of pocket, either. But one thing concrete can't quite claim to provide is great soundproofing quality. Even though concrete is excellent for providing durability and lasting quality, it fails to provide the level of noise reduction most homeowners desire. Many people mistakenly believe concrete’s thickness automatically makes it an incredible soundproofing barrier, but this is not entirely the case. It is not the width of a material that causes soundproofing properties but rather the construction of the product instead. Get a Free Acoustic Analysis Sound Transmission Through Concrete Floors While many people choose concrete as their designated building material based on its hardness and durability, it’s this very quality that... --- ### How to Soundproof Thin Walls > Are thin walls in your home resulting in unwanted noise?

From barking pets to late-night gatherings, neighborly disturbances can range from mildly annoying to absolutely maddening.

If your walls are flimsy and transfer noise easily, try soundproofing your space. Soundproofing thin walls is an easy yet effective way to make a big difference in your day-to-day life. Benefits of Soundproofing Thin Apartment Walls A soundproofed apartment offers plenty of perks to apartment dwellers, including: Enhanced privacy: Keeping outside noises where they belong will give you greater peace of mind knowing your neighbors won't be able to overhear your conversations.

It’s because foam works wonders at absorbing unwanted sounds. Much like earplugs, acoustic foam provides users like you with the noise reduction qualities they desire. These heaven-sent pieces absorb sound so that any noise you generate inside stays in, while external noise remains outside. How does acoustic foam help block out these unwanted sounds? Will foam absorb sound? Keep reading to find out. Shop Acoustic Foam Does Foam Block Sound? It's important to understand a firm truth from the beginning — foam does not block sound. Many people put up acoustic foam on their walls thinking it will stop them from hearing their neighbor's blaring TV at midnight when they're trying to sleep. Others hang acoustic foam thinking they can then be as loud as they want without disturbing their neighbors. Both of these situations are untrue. Foam materials contain tiny pores that allow sound to pass through. This means that you'll still hear the neighbor's TV and they'll still hear you banging on your drum set. What, then, is the point of using acoustic foam products? Why do people like music producers and podcasters have foam panels on their walls?

Spaces like recording studios, restaurants or halls benefit from having the proper ceiling sound treatments because they enable you to address various acoustic problems, often while enhancing your space's aesthetics. Learn more about the different types of ceiling sound treatments and how they improve an enclosed space's sound quality. Why You Need Ceiling Acoustic Treatment How a room is constructed impacts how sound travels and interacts with its surfaces. Unless a room has soundproofing properties, the acoustics tend to be poor. A ceiling sound treatment is a solution that improves the acoustics of a space. Installing a ceiling acoustic treatment material can help regulate the following aspects of sound: Reverberation: Sound reverberation occurs when sound waves bounce off reflective surfaces and come together. The sound waves continue to be reflected after the original sound has stopped, creating an echoey effect. While reverberation is not necessarily bad, it can negatively affect the sound quality in a space. A ceiling sound treatment can help control the reverberation in a room by absorbing the sound. Reflection: When sounds travel through a room, they can come into contact with various objects. In cases where reflection occurs, the sound bounces off the surface and travels in a different direction than initially intended. Installing acoustic treatments can help sound waves travel on their intended path by minimizing reflection. Resonance: Resonance occurs when sound waves disrupt the natural frequency of objects and materials in a room.... --- ### How to Install Mass Loaded Vinyl > Learn how to install mass loaded vinyl on existing walls, bare wall studs, ceiling joists and floors.

Purchase all the materials online. - Published: 2023-08-18 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/soundproofing-solutions-for-multi-family-buildings/ Multi-family buildings are designed to house several families on the same property. This type of building usually features shared interior walls or floor and ceiling assemblies. The physical connection between the neighboring units can create various opportunities for noise transfer. Residents of apartment buildings, duplexes or townhouses are familiar with sounds that come from their neighbors' voices or loud speakers. In cases where one person's ceiling is another person's floor, footsteps can also be an issue. Fortunately, noise pollution in multi-family buildings can be significantly reduced by implementing the right soundproofing solutions during construction. How Does Sound Travel in a Multi-Family Building? Two types of noise pollution affect multi-family buildings — airborne and impact noise. Airborne noise encompasses sounds that travel in the air through gaps, cracks or any form of opening and enters into a neighboring unit. Impact noises occur when an object makes contact with a surface and the vibrations produced pass through. This type of noise often arises in multi-family housing through sounds such as banging on shared walls or moving furniture. Get A Free Acoustic Analysis Building Considerations for Multi-Family Building Constructions During the design and construction phases, it is crucial to consider how you will provide acoustic privacy to occupants in the building.

But you might not know that colored noise doesn't end there. There's a whole rainbow of sound, including green noise. Green noise has been getting some attention on social media lately, especially on TikTok. Many users are highlighting its effectiveness as a sleep aid. Let's look into the different colors of noise to better understand green noise and how it can help. The Different Colors of Noise In audio engineering, sounds are categorized into different colors based on each noise signal's power spectrum density. This measurement depends on the size of the wave and its frequency, which is the speed of its vibration per second. The signals sound different when perceived through human ears and appear with different textures when viewed through images. That's why each noise signal has its own identifying color. Each colored noise has unique properties. Some can even be used for therapeutic purposes, such as promoting sleep or relaxation. The different types of sound by color include: White noise Pink noise Brown noise Blue noise Violet noise Gray noise Green noise What Is Green Noise? Green noise is a type of sound that features a wide range of frequencies, making it similar to white noise in some ways.

The acoustics of your space play a critical role in delivering immersive sound and ensuring an optimal movie-watching environment. In this comprehensive guide, we delve into the herd of acoustic panels and explore their importance in home theaters. From understanding how they work to choosing the right type, placement and quantity, we can provide you with the knowledge to optimize your home theater's acoustic performance. request aN Acoustic Panel quote What Are Acoustic Panels and How Do They Work? The fundamental principle behind how acoustic panels work is sound absorption. When sound waves travel through a room, they encounter surfaces such as walls, ceilings and floors. These surfaces can reflect sound waves, causing them to bounce around the room and create echoes or reverberations. Sound waves penetrate the panel's porous surface when they reach an acoustic panel. The porous material within the panel is designed to convert sound energy into heat through friction and resistance. As a result, the sound waves lose energy, and their intensity decreases, leading to reduced reflections and a more controlled acoustic environment. It's important to note that acoustic panels primarily target the mid and high frequencies responsible for echoes and reflections that can negatively impact sound clarity. Additional measures like bass traps or specialized subwoofers may be necessary to address low-frequency sounds, such as deep bass. Why Home Theater Acoustic Panels Are Beneficial Home theaters benefit... --- ### 5 Interesting Facts About Soundproofing > If you want to learn what soundproofing is and find facts about it, turn to the experts at Soundproof Cow.

We've compiled some of our favorite facts about soundproofing, so keep reading to learn more. 1. Every Increase of 10 dB Doubles a Sound’s Loudness Rather than counting in increments, every raise of 10 decibels (dB) reflects the sound doubling. Many blenders are between 70 dB and 80 dB. While this range may not seem significant, it means some models are twice as loud as others. Another example is watching a movie at 70 dB, which is only half as loud as attending a music festival where the speakers play music at 80 dB. 2. Volcanic Explosion in Indonesia Was the Loudest Sound in the World A volcano on Krakatoa erupted in 1883, creating the loudest documented sound to date at 310 decibels. Even people 3,000 miles away reported hearing a sound similar to canons. The source was the eruption, which reached 310dB. For comparison, thunder can reach 120 dB. The volcano's sound was well beyond the human threshold for pain, and a captain on a ship 40 miles from the explosion reported his crew's eardrums shattering. 3. Wax Plugs Were the Earliest Form of Soundproofing Identifying who invented soundproofing can be challenging due to the practice's long history. If you've heard of “The Odyssey,” you may know that, even in this ancient Greek story, Homer describes a group of sailors using wax plugs to lessen... --- ### The Best Materials for Soundproofing > What are the best soundproofing materials?

Continue reading to learn how to quiet sump pump noise. Causes of Sump Pump Noise Loud noises from your sump pump can disturb your peace. Before you can address the noise, you need to understand the cause. The noise you hear from your sump pump may be from its motor, especially if it is old or an above-ground unit. Otherwise, you can likely describe sump pump noise as rattling or gurgling. Rattling comes from a piece vibrating against something else. For example, the discharge pipe may vibrate against the inside of the basin lid or along your basement's wall. Gurgling is the sound of water flowing through the discharge pipes. You'll often hear gurgling when the sump pump activates. You may also hear this sound when water runs backward through the discharge pipe after a cycle. How to Soundproof Your Sump Pump Some sump pump noises indicate an issue requiring you to repair or replace part of the system. However, other noises may be from regular operation. If that's the case, soundproofing can restore peace to your space. Here are a few sump pump noise reduction tips you can use at home. 1. Block Sound Some of the noise your sump pump produces originates beneath the basin's lid. Other noise comes from inside the pipes. You can reduce how much you hear the motor inside the basin by removing the lid and installing mass-loaded vinyl... --- ### Architect's Guide to Designing Soundproof Offices > Use this architect's guide for designing productive and enjoyable soundproof office spaces, and contact Soundproof Cow to get the materials you need today! - Published: 2023-04-20 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/architect-guide-soundproof-offices/ Soundproofing is crucial for office spaces.

Optimize your studio's acoustic performance with solutions from Soundproof Cow. - Published: 2023-04-07 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/best-room-shape-for-acoustics/ A room's size and shape impact its acoustic qualities. Consider the space's dimensions when choosing a room to use as a music studio or building a new one. In this post, we'll discuss the ideal room size and shape, as well as how you can alter your space to improve its acoustics. Sound Basics to Know As you build your studio, you'll contend with reflection and absorption. Reflection is where sound bounces off a surface, while absorption is where the surface transforms sound into heat, preventing reflection. Uncontrolled reflection leads to echoing and reverberation. The ideal studio features treatments that absorb unwanted frequencies while diffusing the rest — spreading sound evenly through the room. Rooms Size — Large or Small The general rule is that bigger is better. Sound professionals use the Greek Golden Mean Proportions, where the room's width is 1. 6 times the height and the length is 2. 6 times the height. Larger rooms let sound blow off steam. Because it takes longer for the noise to reach the walls, echoes and reverberations are less noticeable. The Ideal Room Shape The best room shape for a recording studio is an irregular one because spaces with plenty of surfaces for sound to interact with control echoing and diffusion more easily. Symmetrical rooms with parallel walls are suboptimal for acoustics. Irregularity will allow your studio to sound natural so you can capture clear recordings and perfect your mixes. Work With the Space You Have Available Sometimes, you have to... --- ### How to Build a Soundproof Dog Enclosure > If your dog cowers at storms or fireworks, build them a cozy soundproof crate.

Of course, you should be careful when investigating, and always unplug the machine before you begin poking around. Once you find out the common reasons why you might be experiencing this issue, you can learn how to reduce dryer squeaking. 1. Loose Dryer Belt The dryer belt helps move the drum that dries your clothing. Belts can stretch due to long-term use, and that can decrease their efficiency. The rubber comes loose and begins making squeaky sounds against the metal drum. Replacing the belt can solve the problem. 2. Old Drum Glide Bearings Glide bearings are pieces of plastic, nylon or sometimes felt that fit along the side of the drum. When they wear down, that's when you start hearing the squeaking. Remove them from their locked tabs and replace them with new bearings. 3. A Broken Idler Pulley An idler pulley, which is also found in cars, spins and helps the motor and the dryer belt run. If it gets loose, it can squeak. You will need to replace the pulley to fix the noise. Make sure you get the right part for your dryer, as pulleys can differ in size. 4.

This article will cover some noise reduction landscape and design choices that will help you enjoy more indoor and outdoor peace in a loud neighborhood. Install a Fence A fence makes an excellent barrier between you and your neighbors. Soundproofing is all about making it more difficult for noise to enter your space. A solid wooden fence will block a fair amount of sound before it reaches your yard. You can enhance the fence's noise-reducing effects with dense materials, like mass-loaded vinyl or foam composites. Add a Fountain Adding a fountain will help limit the amount of noise you notice. The trickling water from a fountain distracts your ears from noise coming from other sources. Combine the soothing noise with a beautiful design to make your yard a more comfortable place to spend time. Add Trees Trees naturally help to reduce the transmission of noise due to there size and density. Similar to fences, trees will help to block noise before it reaches your yard.

Learn the top reasons & benefits for soundproofing carpet floors. Buy soundproofing products from Soundproof Cow. - Published: 2023-03-30 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-soundproof-carpeted-floors/ You have a home with a carpeted floor, and now you’re wondering about soundproofing — but do you really need soundproofing if you have a carpet? After all, isn’t one of the main functions of carpet to cushion impacts and reduce noise? Carpeting certainly does have these properties, but it may not be enough. Here are some reasons you may want to consider further soundproofing your carpet. Shop Flooring Underlayment Does Carpet Reduce Noise? The first question is, can carpet reduce noise? The simple answer? Yes, it can! Understanding the whole answer, though, will mean understanding just how carpeting relates to sound. When you hear a noise, it’s because vibrations are reaching your ears and triggering your sense of hearing. Think of these vibrations, or soundwaves, as rubber balls. They will bounce around a space depending on the room’s characteristics — harder surfaces make it easier for them to keep bouncing. In other words, the room impacts the sound that ultimately reaches your ears. Think about being in a massive auditorium at a concert. When the musicians stop playing on the stage, you can still hear the sound reverberating all around you. That’s because the soundwaves in an auditorium have a lot of space to keep bouncing around until, after a few moments, the sound finally dies away. If the auditorium has all hard surfaces without anything to absorb the soundwaves, listeners may have an unpleasant experience as the sounds start to build on each other. This phenomenon is why... --- ### Soundproofing a Ceiling — New Ceilings vs. Existing Ceilings > Your approach will vary depending on whether you’re putting in a new ceiling or you have an existing ceiling.

If there’s anything on the floor above you, sound can easily travel down into your apartment, condominium or home without adequate soundproofing. But how do you soundproof a ceiling? Your approach will vary depending upon whether you’re putting in a new ceiling or you have an existing ceiling. If it’s the latter, you’re probably interested in soundproofing a ceiling without removing drywall or ripping up your existing ceiling. If you’re building a new ceiling, this is the perfect time to add soundproofing. Whether you’re building a hotel, apartment or multi-story home, guests and residents will appreciate not having to deal with excessive noise from above. If you have an existing ceiling, you may not want to go through the expense of tearing it out and starting over just to add soundproofing. Fortunately, you don’t have to. In fact, keeping the existing ceiling and adding more soundproofing may provide even better soundproofing than ripping out the drywall and starting over.

Learn about soundproofing methods and materials with Soundproof Cow. - Published: 2023-03-17 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-soundproof-your-home-gym/ Creating a home gym can give your fitness routine a much-needed boost, but exercising is noisy work. Acoustic treatment can benefit your workout space, whether you're building a new home gym or converting the spare bedroom into your personal Pilates center. In this post, we'll share how to soundproof your home gym. Why Is Soundproofing a Home Gym Important? Your workouts are bound to be loud, and that's okay! Your home gym should be a place where you feel comfortable going all out. Noisiness becomes an issue when too much of it escapes your workout room and when it becomes too loud within the space. As you exercise, the sound from your equipment, movements and workout tunes can escape to the rest of the house. Soundproofing your home gym will help everyone else in the house enjoy a peaceful environment while you work out. Without acoustic treatment, noises inside the gym will echo and reverberate freely. Plus, sounds from outside will make their way in. You may find yourself turning up your speakers to compete with the excess noise, which can cause issues. What Can You Achieve Through Soundproofing? Blocking sound will contain it and reflect it toward its source, keeping the noise you make in your gym. It also presents sounds from the rest of the house from entering. Absorbing sound will reduce the amount of echoing and reverberation inside the home gym. The tips we provide will tame noise to make the space feel quieter. Our sound absorption... --- ### How to Soundproof a Piano Practice Room > Soundproofing your piano practice room will help you maximize your rehearsal time while minimizing outgoing noise. Treat your space with Soundproof Cow. - Published: 2023-03-03 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-soundproof-piano-practice-room/ Pianists know that practice makes perfect. You have your piano in a dedicated practice room, but you're noticing echoes and reverberations that detract from the sound quality. Plus, the sound of your piano projects throughout your house and beyond. Soundproof Cow has a few tips to help you resolve noise issues in your piano practice room. 1. Decouple the Walls and Ceiling One of the best ways to soundproof any space is to build a room inside the room. Use your practice room's existing wall studs as the base for a new interior wall. The new wall will block noise and stifle vibrations before they reach the first wall. You can increase the effect by filling the space between walls with soundproofing insulation to absorb noise and lining the interior with mass-loaded vinyl to increase the sound-blocking capabilities. The same concept applies to the ceiling — build a drop ceiling and fill the inside with soundproofing materials. 2. Hang Acoustic Panels Acoustic panels will improve the sound quality in your practice room by reducing echoes and reverberations. As you play your piano, its sound waves emanate and eventually collide with the room's walls. A hard wall will reflect the sound waves into the room, resulting in reverb. An acoustic panel will absorb sound energy instead. Try hanging some on your walls and ceiling to experience the difference. 3. Furnish the Room Room furnishings like couches, chairs, curtains and rugs serve numerous practical functions. Furnishing your practice room will make it... --- ### How to Soundproof a Golf Simulator Room > Golf simulators can be loud, but you can keep the noise under control with soundproofing techniques.

An indoor golf simulator is a perfect tool when you want to practice your swing through every season. There's just one problem — the noise. Your family and neighbors can hear the ping of your driver smacking the ball and the thwack of the ball hitting the wall behind the screen loud and clear. Fortunately, soundproofing can help. Follow these steps to soundproof your golf simulator room. 1. Bolster the Walls and Ceiling Thick, dense walls are the best for soundproofing. If your golf simulator is in the basement, most of your walls are underground, but there may be a wall or two that faces the open air. These walls and your ceiling will allow sound to escape. You can increase the density to trap noise inside by adding another layer of drywall and dropping the ceiling. As you complete this project, you can add more sound protection with products like mass-loaded vinyl and acoustic insulation that block and disperse noise. 2. Close off the Room There are a few ways to fill the gaps and cracks that allow noise to escape a room. Doors are some of the greatest offenders. Fortunately, there are soundproofing products specifically designed for them. Install soundproofing door seals and sweeps to plug the cracks above and below the door. If noise escapes through cracks in the walls or door trim, you can fill them with acoustic sound sealants. 3. Pad the Walls... --- ### Soundproofing for an Older House > Old homes are often noisy, but you can soundproof them using products that reduce vibrations and block airborne noise.

One quality many old homes have in common is their noisiness. While you can write peculiar architecture off as charm, noisiness is more difficult to live with.

With the advent of streaming services and movie-quality television, there’s more great content you can enjoy from the comfort of your home, so why not make it a theater-quality experience? If your answer is that you don’t know the first thing about designing a home theater room, fear not. Here’s a step-by-step guide to building a great DIY home theater room for you and your family to enjoy. 1. Pick a Location For Your Cinema Room If you want to know how to build a theater room, start by choosing the right room. Ideally, you want a room that’s at least 20 feet long and 12 feet wide. You also want a room that’s as isolated from the rest of the house as possible — a basement or rec room is ideal. The main reason for this is the transfer of sound. Sound will travel in both directions. This means that others in your house may hear what you're watching, or you could hear what's going on in other rooms of your house when you're trying to focus on your movie. The closer your home theater is to the rest of the house, the better you’ll want your soundproofing to be. 2. Build a Shell Build your shell just as you would build a shell for any home addition. You'll frame out the room in the shape you want, including all walls and ceilings. You can even raise a portion of the... --- ### How to Soundproof a Fireplace > If your fireplace rattles, whistles or lets outside noise into your home, try soundproofing solutions for some relief. Get in touch with Soundproof Cow! - Published: 2023-01-20 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-soundproof-a-fireplace/ A fireplace is a unique feature to have in your home. However, they're liable to create, reflect or transmit noise. In some situations, wind blows through the chimney flue and causes a whistling noise. Other times, the internal mechanical components may create a vibrating noise in the chimney. Noise generated elsewhere may pass through the thin walls around your fireplace or reverberate in or around it. While chimney noise can be disruptive, it's possible to soundproof your fireplace in certain instances. Continue reading to learn ways you can soundproof your chimney. Soundproofing Your Chimney Soundproofing a chimney is challenging. The design features that cause chimneys to be noisy are the same features that allow them to carry smoke out of your home and radiate heat into the room. Your approach to soundproofing your chimney will depend on the type of fireplace you have and whether or not you use it. Inactive Chimney The easiest chimney to soundproof is one you don't plan to use. Since there won't be a flame or smoke, you won't have to worry about restricting airflow or igniting your soundproofing materials. You can easily soundproof the inside of the chimney. Install mineral insulation like Quiet Batt® 30 Soundproofing Insulation that will absorb noise created by wind or mechanical components. You can also insulate the chimney breast using the same material. Your absorptive materials will work well alongside others that prevent sound transmission. Install Mass Loaded Vinyl (MLV) sheets inside the chimney and breast to block any... --- ### The Difference Between High-, Middle- and Low-Frequency Noise > Different sounds have different frequencies, but what’s the difference between high and low-frequency sounds?

What's the difference between high and low-frequency sounds? And what about middle-frequency sounds? If you’ve been wondering about the differences between sounds of varying frequencies and how they affect you, read on. Get a Free Acoustic Analysis What Is The Frequency of A Wave? The frequency of a wave refers to the number of cycles or vibrations of the wave that occur in a given unit of time, often in Hertz (Hz). What Is Low-Frequency and High-Frequency When It Comes to Sound? When we talk about sound, we talk in terms of high and low-frequency waves. Sound waves are movements of air molecules that our ears translate into sound, and frequency refers to the number of cycles these waves complete in a second. This measurement of cycles per second is expressed in Hertz (Hz), with a higher Hz representing higher frequency sound and a lower Hz representing lower frequency sounds. . Human ears can register sounds from about 20 Hz in frequency up to 20,000 Hz, depending of course, upon the hearer. People with hearing loss usually have trouble hearing sounds in the higher frequency range. Speech usually falls within the 100 and 8,000 Hz range. People may start having difficulty discerning speech once it exceeds about 3,000 Hz-4,000 Hz. Types of Sound Waves There are three types of sound waves, in general: Low-Frequency Sound Waves Low-frequency sound waves reside at and below 300 Hz. We perceive... --- ### How to Soundproof a Rental Property > Are you experiencing sound problems in your rental property?

The only problem is the constant noise pollution you have to deal with. Whether it’s the bar next door keeping you up with loud music until 3 a. m. , the couple upstairs constantly fighting or construction waking you up too early in the morning, excess sound can ruin a great apartment. But what can you do? After all, you don’t own the place, and leaving in the hopes of finding affordable soundproof apartments for rent is not usually a viable solution. You need a way to tame the sounds coming into your apartment without damaging your landlord's property in the process. To achieve this, you need renter-friendly soundproofing solutions that actually work. Get a Free Acoustic Analysis Ways to Soundproof Your Apartment Rental If you want to know how to soundproof a rental space, then you've come to the right place. Here are four soundproofing tips that renters can use to keep apartment noise issues at a minimum. 1.

You may be unfortunate enough to be dealing with intolerable noise from multiple sources, but if there is only one area that’s causing a problem, there may be a simple solution that doesn’t require overhauling the entire apartment. For example, if the problem is coming from street noise, simply sealing the windows and walls facing the street with weatherstripping and... --- ### How to Stop Vibration Noise in Your House, Room, and Floor > With proper vibration control systems like flooring underlayment and insulation, you can control vibrations in your room. - Published: 2023-01-12 - Modified: 2025-01-14 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-control-vibration-throughout-room/ If you own a home or business, you know how important it is to have peace and quiet. Depending on the age, building materials and condition of your residential or commercial space, you might be able to hear footsteps, drops and machinery from any room. Controlling vibrations in rooms is a manageable task, but you'll need the right supplies and approach for the job. What Is Impact Noise and Vibration? Anytime someone walks across a wooden floor, you'll hear something called impact noise. This term describes the process in which an object strikes a surface and vibrations pass through conductive materials. Impact or transmission noise is troublesome for property owners, as someone moving upstairs may send vibrational forces through subfloors, walls and ceilings. The best way to manage impact noise is to absorb vibrations that generate when two surfaces collide. Homes with wooden studs tend to have problems with impact noise because wood is highly conductive. Getting rid of vibration in rooms starts with taking a closer look at what lies below hardwood, tile, laminate and stone floors. { "@context": "http://schema. org", "@type": "VideoObject", "name": "How to Reduce Vibration Noise", "description": "If you want a quieter room, vibration noise is where you'll need to start.

Soundproof Cow specializes in residential soundproofing solutions, so follow our DIY tips on how you can block dog barking noise at your home. DIY Soundproofing Solutions for Eliminating Dog Barking Noises When a dog barks in your neighbor's yard or the next room over, the sound passes through the air until it reaches some source of interference. In this case, the interference is your doors, walls or floors. A soundwave will reflect off of a hard surface, but some energy will still pass through, especially if there are cracks or gaps. The trick to mitigating dog barking noise pollution is minimizing the energy that passes through your walls. Try some of these soundproofing and sound absorption strategies to restore peace. Soundproof Doors by Sealing Gaps and Cracks Noise can most successfully breach your walls when there's a gap or crack for it to squeeze through. The most common offenders that admit noise into your home are your doors. The space along and underneath your doors is a perfect avenue for sound energy. To soundproof your doors, plug the space around their perimeters. A perimeter seal can fill the cracks on the sides and top of your door. Meanwhile, a door sweep will block noise from entering under your door without impeding the way it opens and closes.

Learn ways to improve room acoustics with Soundproof Cow! - Published: 2022-12-16 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/tips-improve-room-acoustics/ Whether you're listening to music or watching a movie, the room you're in influences the sound quality. Even the best studio monitors or speakers are subject to the room's design. Fortunately, there are three easy ways to improve acoustics in a room using tools you can purchase online. 1. Absorb Sound Energy Echoes and reverberations cause sonic interference that makes it difficult to enjoy an album or movie in its full glory. If your room has hard, flat and bare surfaces, it will allow sound to bounce freely. You can control echoes and reverberations by installing sound absorption products that improve room acoustics. These products contain soft material that soaks up sound upon contact. Use a combination of these three materials to intercept sound and prevent reverberations: For ceilings: Hanging baffles For walls: Acoustic panels For corners: Corner traps 2. Diffuse Sound Energy Depending on where you sit in a room, your speakers will send sound to you from a different angle. Likewise, the sound reverberating off the walls will come at you from different directions. You can create an ideal sound experience in one part of the room, but that means you can only listen from that spot. Sound diffusion controls how sound waves bounce off surfaces so that the entire room experiences similar sound quality. Products like perforated acoustic wood panels feature irregular surfaces that you can mathematically tailor to your room for the ideal sound distribution. 3. Prevent Sound Entry It's easy to become distracted from the... --- ### Ways to Improve Audio Quality From Surround Sound > Looking for a way to improve the audio quality of your surround system?

How to Make Your Stereo Sound Better Here are a few ways to make your stereo sound better and deliver a sound experience that will amaze your friends and family: Move your surround speakers: Your current speakers might not be in the best position for delivering a rich surround sound experience. If your speakers are all on the back wall, try moving them to the side walls to increase the depth of the sound. Keeping them placed a little higher than ear level will also create more of a surround-sound effect. Toe-in your speakers: Along with the location of your speakers, it's also important to pay attention to appropriately toeing in your speakers. This means ensuring your front speakers are set up at a 22-30 degree angle. Also, keep in mind that you don't want your speakers directly facing the middle of your seating area. Adjust your subwoofer: If your subwoofer is currently located in the corner of the room, you'll want to relocate it to the front. The subwoofer will help deliver rich bass sounds and help increase the dimensional sounds from your system. How Soundproofing and Acoustic Materials Can Help Along with making adjustments to your surround sound system, adding soundproofing and acoustic materials can help transform your cinematic or concert experience. One way to see if... --- ### How to Control Sound in Waiting Rooms > Protect your patient's private health information with sound control.

At Soundproof Cow, we'll help you discover the materials you need to create a quiet and welcoming space for your clients and patients. Why It's Important to Control Sound in Waiting Rooms All waiting rooms should have some level of sound control. It's important to create a calm, controlled sound environment because it: Ensures patient privacy: Medical offices are responsible for safeguarding patients' health information. Specifically, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPPA) requires that health care professionals keep others from hearing protected health information (PHI) by using noise control. Helps retain patients: Along with sharing contact and billing information, some patients may also have to list their symptoms or explain what medications they are on. If patients believe that others can hear their health information, they may seek out a more private office. Creates a relaxing environment: Whether it's a dentist or general practitioner's office, some patients experience some uneasiness or stress while having to wait for their appointment. Hearing things like dental equipment, IV alarms or young children crying can add to their distress. When you block out those sounds, your patients will find it easier to relax, flip through a magazine or read a book while they wait.

Does the echoes and reverberation through your brick wall make you a little irritated? A few soundproofing improvements can help you restore serenity in your space. At Soundproof Cow, we connect homeowners with the guidance and tools they need to make their homes quieter. We will explain how noise gets through your brick walls and how you can stop it from happening. How Do Brick Walls Interact With Sound? Brick is one of the best building materials for noise control. Soundwaves transfer through substances, but those with greater density reduce the amount that can pass through. While sound transfers through the air easily, dense bricks contain noise to one area. A brick's hard surface allows noise to bounce off and reverberate, but it won't allow much noise to transfer through. If your brick home leaks noise, there's likely a gap or crack where sound can squeak through. Brick Wall Noise Reduction Tips If controlling noise that enters, against and bounces around in a brick house is your aim, there are a few steps you can take to get the results you want. Below are our noise reduction tips for brick homes. Plug Cracks and Openings Fill cracks in the walls or around openings with an acoustic sealant. For doors, try installing a door sweep underneath. Add Mass You can take your brick wall's density even further by lining walls with mass loaded vinyl, so there's even more substance to stop... --- ### Things to Know When Soundproofing Metal Buildings > Soundproofing a metal building is possible with the wise application of a few effective soundproofing products. Contact Soundproof Cow for a noise solution. - Published: 2022-10-21 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/things-know-soundproofing-metal-buildings/ Metal buildings are durable, cost-effective structures for commercial or residential workshops. However, many metal buildings feature thin, hard surfaces that allow sound to pass through and reflect. If you operate loud machinery inside your metal building, you likely deal with a lot of reverberating noise, and you may receive some noise complaints from folks outside. Fortunately, a few metal building soundproofing tactics can mitigate noise reflections and prevent sound from transferring through the walls. Must-Know Metal Building Soundproofing Tactics To soundproof a metal building, you'll want to prevent the noise created inside from reflecting off of the hard surfaces. Implement the following solutions to prevent noise from getting in or out. Insulate the Walls Insulation can keep heat in or out of a building and control sound energy. Products like Quiet Batt® Soundproofing Insulation feature dense cotton fibers that soak up sound as it attempts to pass through. Installing insulation between a metal building's walls will contain the noise your machinery creates. Pad the Walls Sound reflects off of your metal building's walls because its surfaces are hard, smooth and flat. You can prevent echoes and reverberations by determining which parts of the walls receive direct sound impact and then padding those parts with acoustic foam panels. The foam panels will absorb the sound energy before it can reflect, ensuring a quieter indoor environment. Hang Acoustic Quilts Acoustic quilts are heavy fabric sheets with metal rivets along the edges, which you can hang anywhere in your building. Acoustic quilts add... --- ### Soundproofing Tips for Busy Cities > Cities are loud, but soundproofing can prevent airborne and structural noise from disrupting your life. Contact Soundproof Cow or shop online today! - Published: 2022-10-07 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/soundproofing-tips-busy-cities/ Living in a busy city is great for many reasons, but you'll have to deal with the noise you hear daily. Sound is bound to invade your space when you live in an apartment or home with neighbors and traffic so close by. Fortunately, soundproofing methods and materials can make exterior noise less of an issue. Check out some of our busy city soundproofing solutions. Understand the Noise Source and How to Treat It There are two types of exterior noise you'll deal with living in a major city — structural and airborne. Structural noise occurs when a soundwave's energy causes a surface to vibrate, such as when your neighbor bangs on the wall or ceiling. Airborne noise is sound that travels through the atmosphere like music, voices, car alarms and others. It squeaks through cracks and wiggles through thin surfaces. Address structural noise by reducing a surface's ability to vibrate and dampen airborne sounds by making the surfaces they travel through denser. Address Specific Surfaces in Your Apartment Here are a few ways to tackle airborne and structural noise in major cities: Walls Walls allow both airborne and structural noise. You can stop airborne noise from getting through your walls by adding mass and density. Products like mass-loaded vinyl provide more substance for the sound to pass through. Adding insulation inside or placing large, soft furnishings against the walls can dampen structural noise. Floors You may deal with sound coming up through the floors or worry about the noise... --- ### Water-Resistant Panels 101 > Learn about Quiet Board’s water resistant acoustic panel today.

Learn more. - Published: 2022-09-21 - Modified: 2025-01-31 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/quiet-noise-soundproofing-foam/ Benefits of Our Premium Soundproofing Foam Soundproofing acoustic foam improves sound clarity in an enclosed area by reducing the reverberation of sound waves. Although it won’t stop all sound, sound insulating foam is one of the most effective and affordable methods for minimizing reverberation, echo and other noise debris. When unwanted sound clutter is interfering with the ability to record music, hear music and listen to lectures and conversations without everyone constantly asking, “What did he just say? ”, you definitely need our noise canceling foam. Acoustic foam panels work by diminishing the intensity of sound waves through absorption. Once sound waves become airborne, they’ll keep moving like a tidal wave until they finally expend their energy. In fact, you can imagine how sound works by picturing thousands of tennis balls bouncing around a room. The Acoustic foam acts like a Velcro® trapping the balls or “sound waves” that contact the foam. Without soundproofing acoustic foam taking the brunt of noisy sound waves, you’ll hear unwanted stuff like echoes, “fuzz” and clutter you don’t want ruining special events or recording gigs. Using Soundproof Foam Panels for Addressing Loud and Annoying Noises We used to live in a quiet world, but all that changed over a century ago. In fact, nobody bothered to measure noise levels until someone discovered that loud noises permanently damage your ability to hear.

Learn more today. - Published: 2022-09-21 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/sound-absorption-guide/ How Does Sound Work? Sound waves are created by vibrations. For example, when someone sings, their vocal cords vibrate and send waves through the air to the listener. Higher-frequency sounds consist of short sound waves, whereas lower-frequency sounds contain long waves. Higher frequency sounds don’t bend as much around barriers and are reflected by thin materials. Lower sound waves pass through thinner materials. In general, sound loses energy as it passes through walls. Noise is unwanted sound and happens when sound is not absorbed by anything and reflects off of walls or other materials. This is why sound-absorbing materials can come in handy. You can check out and compare the noise reduction coefficient (NRC) for each of our products to get an idea of how well each material absorbs sound. The higher the NRC, the more sound a product absorbs. How Do Sound Absorption Materials Work Sound waves will do one of two things when they encounter an object – they can be absorbed, or they can be reflected. When sound is reflected, it is sent back into the room. When it’s absorbed by a sound-absorbing material, it turns into a small amount of heat energy. Acoustics science involves finding the right balance between absorption and reflection. Imagine you’re watching a band play in an auditorium. If the entire space were covered with sound-absorbing materials, the walls would absorb too much sound and make the music sound flat. The musicians would also have to work hard not to make any... --- ### Types of Installation Products for Soundproofing > Discover different types of installation products for soundproofing today. - Published: 2022-09-21 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/types-soundproof-installation-products/ Installation Products Soundproofing materials without the proper installation accessories are like new toys without batteries - no fun and generally useless.

Prevent headaches when you soundproof your home with Soundproof Cow today! - Published: 2022-09-02 - Modified: 2023-01-27 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/why-do-loud-noises-cause-headaches/ Aching, nauseating, pounding — headaches can really throw off your day. A headache can happen for numerous reasons like stress, weather changes, alcohol use and bright lights, but sound is one of the most common triggers. Keep reading to learn why noise can cause or exacerbate a headache. Loud Noise and Headaches A headache is pain resulting from cross-ups between signals from the brain, blood vessels and nearby nerves. Studies have proven a link between noise and two types of headaches — tension headaches and migraines. A recent study looked at common noise sources like sirens and bells — people with frequent migraines were more sensitive to common sources than subjects who didn't experience migraines. Researchers suspect we perceive high frequencies to be louder, which is why they cause more pain. Other researchers found that short exposure to loud noise can cause headaches in those who don't usually get them. Longer exposure leads to desensitization. Preventing Noise-Related Headaches Now that we know noise can definitely cause and worsen a headache, you'll want to find ways to prevent these noise-induced headaches. Here are a few of the most common and effective solutions: Be careful when avoiding noise triggers: One of the studies above suggests that you be careful when avoiding noise triggers outright because total avoidance could cause you to grow overly sensitive to noise. Cautious exposure may help desensitize you to certain triggers. Wear earplugs or earmuffs: Earplugs reduce the perceived decibel level to prevent hearing loss. Earplugs are best... --- ### What Is Ligyrophobia? > Ligyrophobia is the fear of loud noises caused by traumatic experiences or a chemical imbalance. Learn ways to cope with ligyrophobia with the Soundproof Cow! - Published: 2022-08-19 - Modified: 2024-04-08 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/what-is-ligyrophobia/ Ligyrophobia — sometimes called phonophobia, sonophobia or acousticophobia — is the fear of loud noises. The term comes from the Greek word for “sharp,” like a piercing sound. While ligyrophobia is rare, it can be highly disruptive to those who experience it. Symptoms differ from case to case, but those with ligyrophobia may experience or display: Nausea, fainting and sweating from exposure to loud noise. The desire to flee from loud rooms. Avoidance behaviors pertaining to loud events, activities and places. Restlessness in noisy environments. Panic attacks in loud situations. What Causes Ligyrophobia? Awareness of sounds and loud noises is naturally instilled in humans. Ancient humans needed to stay alert for dangerous predators and situations, many of which would coincide with loud noises. Fleeing from a sudden loud noise is a natural reaction, especially in children. Children have more difficulty controlling their emotions and their ears are naturally more sensitive than adults. While anxiety about loud noises usually passes with time, a traumatic experience with loud noise can solidify the fear. Adults with ligyrophobia may have another underlying condition. Arenal deficiency can cause irritability and other anxious behaviors. Hyperacusis causes normal sounds to seem unbearably loud and is linked to conditions like autism and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Some individuals with ligyrophobia have specific triggers for their condition. A particular loud sound that they associate with a traumatic event can induce their anxiety. What Are the Most Affective Ligyrophobia Remedies?

Shop with Soundproof Cow to find eco-friendly acoustic products! - Published: 2022-08-05 - Modified: 2025-03-14 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/natural-resources-that-absorb-sound/ Using soundproofing materials to create peaceful environments in indoor spaces is great, but so is treating the natural environment with care. Fortunately, it's possible to do both at once. Soundproof Cow uses sustainable soundproofing solutions to muffle sound in an eco-friendly way. Today, we'll cover some of nature's most effective soundproofing resources. Nature's Soundproofers Mother Nature can compete with some of the most innovative manufacturers, providing several naturally occurring substances with excellent acoustic properties. Some of these eco-friendly materials that are the best at reducing noise include: Cotton Cotton is an excellent acoustic material that achieves multiple effects. Cotton soundproofing materials can absorb, disperse and even contain sound. This natural material is effective because it's porous, which means it's full of channels that accept and contain energy. Cotton is also compactable, so designers can form it into thick sheets that ensnare and disperse sound. Bamboo Bamboo soundproofing is another effective sound absorption option because it's a soft type of wood. Bamboo's softness and low density allow it to absorb and disperse sound energy, preventing noise from reflecting off the material. It's porous, too, which adds to its ability to absorb energy. Some homeowners plant dense bamboo walls around their property for natural sound absorption. Coconut Fibers Coconut husks are another porous, fibrous material source that occurs naturally. As a result, coconut fibers share similar soundproofing properties with cotton and bamboo. However, coconut fibers are lighter than cotton, so it takes more to be effective at absorbing sound. Eco-Friendly Acoustic Products... --- ### The World's Loudest Animals > Wild animals like the lion, sperm whale and tiger pistol shrimp create a lot of noise. Discover the world's loudest animals with the Soundproof Cow! - Published: 2022-07-28 - Modified: 2024-02-14 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/loudest-animals-on-earth/ As humans, we all cherish a little peace and quiet, but rocking out at an earsplitting concert is one of life's simple pleasures. Consequently, we've created numerous ways to push decibel (dB) levels to the max just for the thrill, like stereo systems, car engines and fireworks displays. However, some creatures naturally surpass the noise levels we can reach. Let's check out some of the loudest animals on Earth. Tiger Pistol Shrimp While the tiger pistol shrimp is small, the noise it produces is mighty. Other animals use sound for communication, but this minuscule shrimp uses sound as a weapon. The tiger pistol shrimp draws its top claw back then releases it, causing the top claw to snap back to the bottom claw at 115 miles per. The collision creates a low-pressure air pocket in which a bubble forms. The high pressure outside the pocket causes the bubble to implode, creating a sound that tops 200 dB. The loud noise stuns and kills prey within a two-meter radius. What's more, the implosion produces heat that, for a split second, rivals the sun's surface temperature at 7,232 degrees Fahrenheit. Sperm Whale The sperm whale is one of the largest mammals on Earth and the loudest animal in water. Sperm whales emit a click that reaches 233dB. First, the sperm whale pulls air through its nostril. The nostril passes along an air-filled sack to the top of the head at a point near the blow hole known as the monkey lips. The... --- ### How to Soundproof a Psychologist's Office > Psychology offices should be peaceful, private places, which makes soundproofing a good investment for any practice. Contact Soundproof Cow for information. - Published: 2022-07-15 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-soundproof-psychologist-office/ Have you run into issues where stray noise throws sessions off course or compromises patient confidentiality at your psychology practice? Soundproofing can help. Let's discuss the importance of soundproofing a therapy office and how you can do it. Why Is Soundproofing a Psychologist's Office Important? Soundproofing, which is the process of preventing noise from entering or leaving a space, is essential in a psychologist's office. As a psychologist, confidentiality is one of the most critical aspects of your service. Patients visit your office expecting to be able to discuss sensitive topics with the confidence that everything will stay between you and them. Sound crossing from room to room potentially compromises the privacy your patients expect. What's more, uninvited noise can be distracting during a session. Soundproofing your office will help you facilitate meaningful, focused therapy sessions that maintain your patients' privacy. Get a Free Acoustic Analysis 4 Ways to Soundproof an Office for Privacy Integrating psychologist office soundproofing solutions helps improve the patient experience. Here are four ways to enhance privacy by reducing noise transfer at your practice: 1. Fill Gaps Sound will try to sneak into or out of your office any way it can. The most common leaking points are the doors, windows and cracks in the walls. There are a few ways to fill the sound-leaking gaps, but the two most effective methods for therapy offices are: Installing door sweeps and seals that eliminate space below and on either side of the door. Sealing windows or walls... --- ### How to Soundproof With Minimal Damage to Walls > Did you know that you can soundproof your room without damaging the walls? Click here to discover how you can achieve better soundproofing in your room! - Published: 2022-07-12 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-soundproof-with-minimal-damage-to-walls/ You deserve peace and quiet in your home, even if there's only one room in your house where you can escape the noise of life for a few moments. Sounds can add up, whether they come from inside or outside of your home. Without proper soundproofing, you could find yourself having trouble sleeping or concentrating on your tasks because of unwanted noises. While you may wish you could take the most extreme soundproofing measures for a silent living space, sometimes you have to find ways to soundproof a room without tearing down walls. Here are 10 ways you can achieve better sound isolation in your home without having to call the renovation crew. 1. Hang Soundproof Blankets One easy way to soundproof a room causing minimal damage is to hang soundproof blankets on the walls. This option will cover anything you have on your walls. It may leave something to be desired in terms of aesthetics but will yield good results. Along the same lines as using soundproof blankets is the option to put up a temporary partition. Like firm blankets, you can hang these barriers anywhere you need to achieve extra soundproofing. This is an excellent option for flex rooms where several activities could be happening simultaneously. 2. Seal the Cracks Sometimes the most annoying sounds come from the smallest openings. If you have cracks in your walls, then soundwaves from outside or even other rooms in your house have a direct path into the room you want to... --- ### 5 Soundproofing Myths > The internet is crawling with soundproofing myths and misconceptions, so trust the professionals to straighten things out. Contact Soundproof Cow to learn more! - Published: 2022-07-01 - Modified: 2024-04-02 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/soundproofing-myths/ Soundproofing is a complex topic, and there are numerous myths and misconceptions floating around the web. We'll go over some of the biggest myths about soundproofing so that you can approach your project with more factual information. 1. Soundproofing and Sound Absorption Are the Same Understanding the difference between soundproofing and sound absorption is critical. Soundproofing confines noise to a given space by adding mass that blocks it out. You're soundproofing a room when preventing sound from escaping and blocking outside noise. Soundproofing does not address echoes and reverberations — that's where absorption comes in. Absorptive materials convert sound energy into heat, then disperse the heat along the surface. 2. Acoustic Foam Is Great for Soundproofing Acoustic foam is the epitome of sound absorption versus soundproofing. Any acoustic panel or foam sheet you see in a professional studio is there to absorb sound, not to soundproof the space. If you add acoustic panels, you'll address echoes and reverberations, but sound can still make its way in and out of the room. 3. Soft Furnishings Are All You Need Since acoustic panels are ineffective at soundproofing, some people use soft materials like a thick blanket, curtain or rug. In addition to looking unprofessional, padding your surfaces with soft furnishings isn't a viable alternative. Blankets and the like aren't very dense, so they don't soundproof — or absorb sound — well. 4. A Thicker Wall Is Better A thicker wall will be more difficult for noise to work through, but you'll still... --- ### How to Stop Bed Squeaking by Soundproofing Your Bed > A squeaking bed frame can be tedious, but these tips can give you hope! Learn more about keeping your bedroom quiet with the Soundproof Cow. - Published: 2022-06-17 - Modified: 2025-03-31 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-stop-bed-squeaking-by-soundproofing-your-bed/ Does your bed squeak with every shift you make in the night? Let's talk about how to stop your bed from squeaking. Determine Why Your Bed Is Making Noise Discovering the issue is your first step. The most likely culprit is the bed frame. To make sure, remove the mattress and box spring so you can jostle around different parts of the frame to see which causes the noise. Then, try the following solutions. Tighten Joints Loose joints allow the bed frame's parts to wiggle and squeak. If you notice any loose screws or bolts, use a screwdriver or wrench to fasten them. While you're at it, consider adding some washers to increase stability and reduce noise. Lubricate Joints On the other end of the spectrum, a bed frame squeaking can come from parts that are too tight and rub against each other. A lubricant like WD40 is your best bet, but alternatives like beeswax or candle wax will work in a pinch. Cushion the Frame Placing fabric between the frame and the box spring will prevent squeaking that results from the metal frame and wooden boards rubbing together. The soft barrier will absorb vibrations, too. You can cushion your frame with materials around the house like an old t-shirt, pair of socks or a blanket. You could also purchase a sheet of cork and cut it to your frame's size. Fix Uneven Footing Uneven legs can cause your bed to wobble and thump against the floor. One solution would... --- ### 4 Quiet Desk Fans for Your Home Office > A quiet desk fan can come in handy on hot summer days at the office.

Contact Soundproof Cow for more. - Published: 2022-06-17 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/acoustic-panels-vs-bass-traps/ When researching ways to reduce noise in a reflective space, acoustic panels and bass traps come up as similar options. Beyond treating different frequencies, each device seems to serve a similar purpose — absorbing sound. What’s the Difference Between Acoustic Panels and Bass Traps? The truth is that bass traps and acoustic panels have precise, separate applications. Acoustic panels are made to absorb and control mid to high frequencies, while bass traps handle low frequencies. Let’s dive further into the similarities and differences to help you decide how and when to use acoustic panels versus bass traps. Acoustic Panels Acoustic panels are versatile tools for reducing or controlling reverberations in a room. The more acoustic panels you use, the less you'll notice reverberations. Most acoustic panels feature either fiberglass or mineral wool. In most cases, you'll hang acoustic panels from the walls or ceiling. Most acoustic panels are somewhere between one and three inches thick. Their thickness is ideal for absorbing high, short frequencies ranging between 300-400 Hz and reaching up to 2 kHz. The panels can absorb these frequencies before they contact the surface below, even without a gap. Completely eliminating reverberations can make a room sound unnaturally quiet, so many engineers will use acoustic panels meticulously to address specific sources while allowing the room to retain its bright, energetic sound. Bass Traps Bass traps focus on the lowest frequencies our ears can register. Overactive bass can sound distorted and warbled. Bass traps work toward auditory clarity while retaining... --- ### Do Soundproofing Blankets Work? > Soundproofing blankets are designed to deaden sound.

Then you may have heard about a sound dampening or acoustic blanket. But you may be wondering, how do sound blankets actually work? What Are Soundproof Blankets? A soundproof blanket is just what it sounds like! It's a large piece of material that's designed to deaden sound. You can lay soundproofing blankets down on floors or adhere them to walls and ceilings to block unwanted sound. Shop Quiet Barrier® Fiberglass Composite Blankets How Well Do Sound Dampening Blankets Work? Soundproofing blankets made with the right material will absolutely work if used correctly. While an acoustic blanket will not prevent all sound from entering or leaving a room, it can dramatically dampen sound. No more being distracted by harsh noises outside! Plus, people on the other side of a sound blanket won't be bothered by what's going on inside. It's a win-win. Of course, a soundproofing blanket is only as good as its material. That's why we recommend our Quiet Barrier® Fiberglass Composite soundproofing blanket made with the highest quality materials. Acoustic Panels vs. Acoustic Blankets When deciding if acoustic blankets are the right choice, many people will first compare them to acoustic panels. Acoustic panels accomplish some of the same goals as acoustic blankets, deadening and dampening sound within a space. However, these panels' shapes, sizes and setup are quite different from acoustic blankets. Acoustic blankets are often large and heavy. In some cases, you'll have to... --- ### Does Soundproofing Affect Wi-Fi and Phone Signals? > Learn more about how soundproofing affects Wi-Fi and phone signals and find professional soundproofing solutions from Soundproof Cow. Contact us today! - Published: 2022-06-03 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/does-soundproofing-affect-wi-fi-and-phone-signals/ As you prepare to soundproof a room, consider the room's function and aesthetics. You'll want to maintain the room's integrity and avoid compromising features with the soundproofing materials. One important consideration is whether your soundproofing methods will impact the Wi-Fi and phone signals. Luckily, most soundproofing materials have little to no impact on the Wi-Fi and data reception quality. Read on to learn more about soundproofing a room and maintaining strong Wi-Fi and phone signals. Sound Waves vs. Electromagnetic Waves Most soundproofing products have little effect on Wi-Fi signals or cell reception since sound and Wi-Fi are transmitted through different wave types. Sound waves vibrate the air particles. Meanwhile, cellphone data and Wi-Fi signal travel via electromagnetic waves, which are much higher in frequency. The electromagnetic properties allow the waves to pass through dense materials easier than sound waves. Soundproofing materials limit vibration by filling empty air space and adding mass, making them excellent solutions for reducing extraneous noise while allowing electromagnetic waves to pass through smoothly. Extremely dense or thick materials, like concrete, can still impact phone and Wi-Fi signals traveling through walls. Soundproofing Products for Strong Wi-Fi and Phone Signals While most soundproofing materials will not impede your Wi-Fi or phone signals, it's still important to understand what products may interfere. To maintain a strong Wi-Fi signal, you should avoid using concrete or foil-backed soundproofing solutions. At Soundproof Cow, we offer numerous high-quality soundproofing materials that can help to keep your room quiet and phone signals strong, including:... --- ### 4 Ways to Reduce Echoes in Offices > Echoing in the office can be distracting and counterproductive.

Hard surfaces cause soundwaves to bounce around the room as distracting echoes and reverberation. If you're looking for a way to create a more peaceful indoor space, soundproofing insulation is one part of the solution. In this article, we’ll go over the most effective types and help you find the best soundproof insulation for your needs. Shop Quiet Batt® Sound Insulation What Is Soundproofing Insulation and How Does It Work? Soundproofing insulation is a specialized type of insulation that offers acoustic benefits in addition to heat insulation. You install the insulative material into your ceiling and walls to deaden noise within a room. Soundproofing insulation expands on regular insulation's ability to transform energy. Like heat, sound travels through the air until it contacts another surface. The surface will either reflect the sound or absorb it. Since soundproofing insulation is a soft, porous material, it absorbs sound by converting it into heat. The heat disperses throughout the material before it reflects off of the hard surface on the other side of the insulation. Soundproofing insulation is thicker and softer than regular insulation, which increases its effectiveness against noise. What Kinds of Noise Can Soundproofing Insulation Address? Before choosing soundproofing insulation, it's important to recognize what it can and cannot do. There are multiple ways sound can become a disturbance. Sound transmission describes a soundwave's ability to pass in or out of a room through a solid surface,... --- ### How to Soundproof a Laundry Room > With the loud noises from washers and dryers, you may need a solution to soundproof your laundry room.

Contact Soundproof Cow for more on mobile home soundproofing! - Published: 2022-05-06 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-soundproof-mobile-home/ A mobile home is a practical housing option that's growing in popularity. If you've recently moved into a mobile home or are considering it, you should know that the structures have thinner walls that sound can penetrate easily. Soundproofing can ensure you have enough peace and privacy inside your mobile home. 3 Ways to Soundproof your Mobile Home Soundproofing can address numerous types of noise around your mobile home. Here are three ways you can stop sound from getting in or out. 1. Add Density to Your Walls Your mobile home's walls are a relatively small barrier between the inside and outside, so sounds can make their way through with ease. Adding density creates more mass for the sound waves to work through, reducing the transmitted noise. You can add mass in walls in two places: Between the walls: You can insulate a mobile home with soundproofing insulation between any interior or exterior wall to minimize transition. The insulation will retain heat, too. On the interior surface: Covering a wall with mass-loaded vinyl (MLV) will, as the name suggests, add mass that prevents transmission. Acoustic foam panels serve a similar purpose while also absorbing sound. 2. Soften Any Hard Surfaces Sound will reflect off a mobile home's bare walls, floors and ceiling, resulting in distracting echoes and reverberations. Softer materials can absorb sound for a quieter interior setting. Here are a few of your options: Acoustic panels: As mentioned above, acoustic panels are great for absorbing sound. You can even... --- ### 7 White Noise Machines to Reduce Background Noise in Your Office > Struggling with office noise?

A dead-silent office is nice until the slightest sound like rustling papers or a squeaky chair jolts you out of your focused headspace. White noise machines provide a bit of background noise that can fill the void and create a more peaceful working environment. What to Look for in White Noise Machines If you're interested in buying a white noise machine for your office, you should keep a few things in mind. The first consideration is volume. Unless you plan on having a personal white noise machine on your desk, choose one with enough range to spread white noise across the entire room. You'll also want to prioritize sound quality. The sound should be pleasing and project well at loud volumes. Some models have multiple settings to choose from, like a trickling stream or a small fan.

Implementing a few careful soundproofing solutions will help you minimize the noise your hot tub makes and reduce the effects of any remaining noise. 3 Ways to Reduce Hot Tub Noise At Soundproof Cow, we know a thing or two about reducing noise in tricky situations. Here are three of our recommended approaches for making your hot tub quieter. 1. Build a Soundproof Box for the Hot Tub's Pump The motor inside your hot tub's pump makes a lot of noise during its regular operation. It'll cause even more noise if it rattles around. If your pump is separate from the tub, you can build soundproof housing to contain it. Follow these six steps: Cut medium-density fiberboard (MDF) into five even sides that you'll construct into a three-sided box. Line each board with mass-loaded vinyl (MLV) and drill ventilation holes. Glue acoustic foam to each board. Apply soundproofing adhesive to each panel and fasten them together. Use additional nails if necessary. Seal each merge point with acoustical sound sealant. Place the box over the motor. 2. Create a Solid but Soft Base Your hot tub needs to rest on a flat surface or else it may move around, like a desk on an uneven floor.

Contact the Soundproof Cow to discuss TV noise solutions. - Published: 2022-03-18 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/soundproof-wall-behind-tv/ Living in an apartment complex or with roommates comes with various challenges, especially when shared walls are involved. Sound is bound to permeate from the next room over and vice versa. TVs near walls are prominent culprits. If your neighbor has a TV near or mounted on your shared wall, you may be hearing late-night reruns of Everybody Loves Raymond or George Lopez while you're trying to enjoy a peaceful evening. Likewise, you may end up treating your neighbor to a second-hand sonic experience from the battle of Helm's Deep. Fortunately, a few soundproofing solutions can go a long way toward keeping the peace between apartment units. How to Muffle TV Noise Without Damaging Your Wall When sound bursts through walls, it's passing through the surface too easily. The key is to add more mass for the sound to pass through while directing it elsewhere. These are soundproofing methods that can work with your room's existing architecture. Mass-Loaded Vinyl and Acoustic Panels If you have a wall-mounted TV, soundproofing requires some space-efficient materials. Mass-loaded vinyl and acoustic panels can fit behind a wall-mounted TV. They also help if your neighbor's TV is causing you problems. Both MLV and acoustic panels stick directly onto the wall. For best results, stick the materials to the wall using soundproofing adhesive. Request an Acoustic Panel Quote Acoustic Partitions If you're looking for a less-permanent solution that you can move around the room or easily take with you when you move, an acoustic partition can... --- ### How to Soundproof a Loft > Soundproofing open spaces in a loft can be challenging. Read our tips for how to soundproof floors, walls, ceilings & doors in your loft. - Published: 2022-03-16 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-soundproof-loft/ Table of Contents: Loft Noise Problems Soundproof Loft Walls Soundproof Loft Floors Soundproof Loft Ceilings Soundproof Loft Doors & Windows There’s no way to sugarcoat it — soundproofing is not an easy job. A loft is an open space, which is one of its appeals. And open spaces are naturally very difficult to soundproof. But while you cannot turn your loft into a perfect sound-resistant bubble, loft soundproofing is possible, with a little ingenuity. Here are some tips and soundproofing solutions to consider in your loft space. Common Noise Problems in Lofts The first step toward successfully soundproofing your loft is understanding common noise problems. The main noise concerns in lofts come from their construction. Lofts are wide-open areas, often with high ceilings. This means that sounds can easily reverberate around the room, leading to louder noises and more disturbances. Noises from outside can enter and build up, swirling and echoing around the room. So, you'll have to make the most of the surfaces available to you while using the right soundproofing products. Doing so will help you achieve more pleasing acoustics in your loft and get the echo and reverb under control. Below, we'll look at the four areas you should address when soundproofing your loft room — its walls, floors, ceilings and doors. How to Soundproof Loft Walls Here, we see the main problem — lofts don’t really have walls. Therefore, if you want to block sound, you’re going to have to build them. 1. Acoustic Partitions If... --- ### How to Improve Your Live Stream Audio > Improve your live stream audio for your followers with tips and soundproofing materials from Soundproof Cow today. - Published: 2022-03-04 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/improve-live-stream-audio/ When you run audio for a live stream, getting the best sound quality makes a huge difference to your listeners. You want them to be able to hear every word clearly and enjoy their listening experience. How to Get Good Sound Quality on a Live Stream Use our tips for ways to live stream with good audio and improve your output and impress your listeners. 1. Reduce the Distance Between Mics and Mouths The closer your speakers are to the mic, the better the sound quality. You will decrease the amount of distracting noise and random sounds, such as the shuffle of clothing. Try a head-worn mic, which puts the least amount of distance between your mouth and the mic. It will also help pick up consonant sounds. 2. Reduce the Reverb Reverberations occur when sound bounces off the surfaces around you. The best solution is to decrease the amount of room the sound has to bounce, which means recording in a smaller space. Adding acoustic treatments to the walls can also reduce reverb. 3. Soundproof the Room Without soundproofing, you can record in the smallest room and still generate reverb. Soundproofing stops the sound from echoing, and you can get the materials you need from Soundproof Cow. Depending on your live stream, you may want to opt for commercial soundproofing options, which are your most powerful sound absorption choice. If you want to get started fast, use blankets on the walls for a DIY option. You will hear the... --- ### Shipping Prices Are Over the Moon — What's the Deal? > Shipping rates are higher than ever due to a limited number of shipping containers and shutdowns at loading docks. Contact us to discuss our shipping policies. - Published: 2022-03-03 - Modified: 2022-11-17 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/why-shipping-costs-are-high/ The last couple of years have challenged everyone in unique ways. Recently, shipping issues have affected everyone across the globe, including customers. You may have noticed that shipping prices are higher than usual these days, which can be stressful for hardworking folks. The Wall Street Journal reports that, as of December of 2021, shipping prices had risen 23% from 2020's rates. These high shipping rates are consistent across the market. A few underlying issues have strained virtually every business in the nation and beyond. At Soundproof Cow, we care about our customers and value transparency in all of our rates. Today, we're hoping to help you understand why shipping prices have recently increased and when you can expect them to come back down. Keep It Moo-ving — Shipping Halts Cause Trouble After the pandemic virtually shut down the world's economy, the nations that first experienced and responded to the virus were able to reopen sooner. That meant China became the first major economy to bounce back after the coronavirus struck. While China's opening for business was a good sign for the rest of the world, the country didn't have all the resources it needed to operate on a global scale. The Container Crisis Transporting goods en masse requires shipping containers, and most containers were in the United States and Europe, countries that were still shut down. That meant that a spot on a shipping container was costly. Moreover, the cost to produce new shipping containers rose from the early 2020... --- ### Impact Noise vs. Airborne Noise > Two different types of noise are airborne noise and impact noise. Learn more about each type and discover how you can control noise through soundproofing. - Published: 2022-03-02 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/impact-noise-vs-airborne-noise/ All sound is a result of waves that cause vibrations that reach the ear or a recording device after traveling through a given medium, but many people who are concerned about acoustics often do not take the time to distinguish between impact noise vs. airborne noise. These are two very different types of noises that require different approaches to control. What do these terms mean, and how do we control impact noise vs. airborne noise? What Is Airborne Noise? Airborne noise is when a sound is transmitted by air, examples include music, speech, and television. This type of noise is fairly common, so it’s typically what comes to mind when you think of noise. What Is Impact Noise? Impact noise is when the vibration of a sound travels through a medium other than the air and occurs when two or more objects collide. Examples of impact noise include a construction jackhammer, a ball bouncing on the floor above you or water sloshing through your pipes. Impact noise can travel through structures, and so it is sometimes called structure-borne noise. How Do You Control Airborne Noise and Impact Noise? If you only control one type of noise in a room, your room is not fully soundproofed. Many people may effectively block airborne noise but not account for impact noise. This may not be sufficient for situations where structures are especially prone to conduct sound or where outside impacts are common. Fortunately, Soundproof Cow designs a number of products that can block... --- ### What Are R-Values for Insulation? > The R-value of insulation tells you how much heat transfer the insulation can resist. Learn about R-values and insulation on Soundproof Cow's blog. - Published: 2022-02-28 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/r-values-for-insulation/ Insulation is rated by its thermal resistance or R-value. The R-value of insulation helps you find the right level of insulation for a home or business. Having too much insulation wastes money, but having too little can lead to heat loss in your home, increase your heating bills and make your home temperatures low. Learning a few home insulation basics can help you understand how insulation is rated. What Is an R-Rating for Insulation? R-values measure insulation's efficiency in resisting heat transfer. The higher the R-value, the greater its ability to withstand heat. How Suggested R-Values Differ by Area The farther north you go, the higher the R-value recommended for insulation. For instance, a high R-value is essential in an attic, where cold air can seep in during the winter and reduce temperatures in the entire house. You could see the R-value of insulation in the attic in a cold climate as high as R-30. Floors are usually about half that, and walls can have an even lower R-value. Why the differences? You want the highest R-values in the place where you're most likely to lose heat, which means the roof rather than the lower floors or basement. Heat generally moves vertically rather than horizontally. So, putting a high R-value insulation in the attic provides better protection in the place where you need it the most. Do R-Ratings Apply to All Insulation? All types of insulation fall under the R-rating system, including everything from fiberglass to foam. You can mix... --- ### 4 Causes of Noisy Pipes > Learn about the 4 causes of noisy pipes and how to address these causes in your home with high quality soundproofing materials. - Published: 2022-02-07 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/causes-of-noisy-pipes/ Clanging, knocking or otherwise noisy pipes can keep you from enjoying tranquility at home. You’ll want to figure out and address the cause of the noise before it starts disrupting your life. 1. High Water Pressure If you hear knocking sounds when your water is running or when you turn cold water taps off, water pressure may be causing the noise. When water under high pressure bounces around the inside of your pipes, they shake. Use a water pressure test gauge on the hose bib close to your primary water main. If the reading is higher than 40 to 80 PSI, you may want a professional plumber to install a new pressure-reducing valve or adjust your current model to reduce the noise. 2. Water Hammer You might have a water hammer issue if you notice a knocking sound when you shut off the water or turn off a tap. When moving water encounters a closed water valve, it abruptly stops and causes pipes to shake. Water hammer is a serious issue. In some cases, the shaking may cause damage to the pipes and lead to leaks and water damage. If you live in an older home, you may have air chambers, which are empty pipes meant to absorb the shock of the water. If these air chambers fill with water, you'll need to drain your plumbing then refill it to address the problem. If you live in a home built in the 1970s or earlier, get a professional plumber to... --- ### The Types of Noise in Communication > There are many types of noise in communication - Physical, Physiological, Psychological, and Semantic. Learn more today. - Published: 2022-02-07 - Modified: 2025-04-29 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/4-types-of-noise-in-communication/ No one wants to ask someone to repeat themselves for the fourth time in a row when chatting in a noisy room or strain to hear a phone call over the background noise on the other end. Noise can have a significant impact on the way we communicate with one another. Whether it's in an office or industrial workplace or at home, noise can prevent us from getting our message across effectively to those around us. Find out exactly how noise affects communication, the different types of noise that affect communication, and how to reduce noise to improve communication. What Is Communication Noise? Communication noise can be defined as any barrier preventing an effective communication process. When a form of noise disrupts the communication process from the sender to the receiver, it is considered communication noise. The noise might distract the receiver, causing them not to hear the sender's message properly. Or it might distract the sender, making it difficult for them to communicate the message effectively. Either way, noise becomes a barrier to communication. Communication noise can be found in almost all settings and contexts, including face-to-face, groups and organizational settings. Studies have shown that in organizational settings specifically, businesses have lost billions of dollars because of communication noise. Types of Noise Which Can Affect Communication Not all noise is created equal. There are several types of noise during communication that can make it more difficult to understand the other things going on around you. How noise is a... --- ### Soundproofing a Nursery > If you’re ready to take the first steps to a calmer, quieter household, here are a few nursery sound control tips to get you started! - Published: 2022-02-04 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/soundproofing-a-nursery/ If you’ve got a baby, or you have one on the way, you may have already considered nursery soundproofing. While there’s no way to stop your baby from crying at times, or sleeping and waking at a schedule that’s not convenient to you, nursery sound control can help your baby stay asleep. It may even help your baby stay calm throughout the day, thanks to fewer sudden or harsh noises that might tend to disturb them. If you’re interested in soundproofing a nursery, you may not know where to begin. The truth is, soundproofing your nursery doesn’t need to be a major home renovation project. In fact, taking steps to protect your child’s nursery from unwanted and unexpected sounds can be much easier than you might think. How Babies Perceive Sound Your baby starts hearing before he is even born, so there will be sounds that are familiar right away. Like the rest of us, there are some sounds babies prefer more than others. These include: White noise: They may also respond to brown noise and other blanketing sounds, like the air conditioner, vacuum cleaner or static. These are soothing to babies because they resemble the whooshing sounds in the womb. Higher-pitched talking: There’s a reason everyone uses baby talk with babies. They respond to it! Babies tend to be more engaged with higher more melodic frequencies than lower ones. This is because a newborn’s hearing is still a bit immature, and the middle ear is still full of fluid.... --- ### Things to Consider When Picking an Apartment > Apartment shopping can be extremely stressful. Learn about some key questions you should be asking when deciding on what apartment you should choose. - Published: 2022-01-25 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/apartment-shopping/ Apartment shopping can be extremely stressful. You have a list of must-haves and deal-breakers, plus a budget you have to keep to. You also never know when some other prospective renter is going to swoop in and rent that apartment right out from under you. Still, there are some things to consider before renting so you don’t end up stuck with a lease you’d like to break two days after it’s signed. Some of the most important things to consider are what factors might cause you to end up in a noisy apartment. If you’re someone who likes their quiet, this is one of the most important things to consider before renting, and yet, in the light of day, when the landlord is showing you the place, it can be hard to know if you have a noisy apartment on your hands or not. Here are some possible cues that noise might be an issue when apartment shopping. 1. What Floor Are You On? The higher up you are, the better chance you have of being away from the biggest sources of noise. Honking cars, construction and the like all take place at ground level. And if your neighbors are having a party, you’ll probably be much happier if they are your downstairs neighbors (better yet, two or three floors down), rather than having their music and 20 pairs of visiting feet beating down on your ceiling. 2. Does the Building Allow Pets? Owning pets is great. If people in... --- ### How to Soundproof a Multipurpose Room > Is your multipurpose room noisy? Learn how to soundproof it using acoustic panels and hanging baffles. Find out more on the Soundproof Cow blog. - Published: 2022-01-21 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-soundproof-multipurpose-room/ Multipurpose rooms serve numerous roles in your school, church or office building. You can use these rooms for everything from playing an indoor soccer game to holding choir practice or hosting a potluck dinner. Multipurpose rooms hold many people, and they can become pretty loud depending on the activity. Sounds start bouncing off the walls, ceilings and floor, creating background noise that increases until you lose focus on the sounds happening near you. To eliminate the problem, you need to soundproof your multipurpose room. Easy Steps for Soundproofing a Multipurpose Room To soundproof the room, determine the cubic footage of the space by measuring the length, width and height. With this information, you can submit your measurements and receive recommendations from Soundproof Cow based on your unique situation. You can also remove furniture or decor with a hard surface, as these items contribute to the noise in the room. Reducing the amount of ambient echo in a space can decrease background noise. You can use sound-absorbing panels to acoustically treat almost any type of room. Your approach may depend on the type of multipurpose room you have. A gymnasium, for instance, demands hanging baffles that absorb sound and damp down reverberation. Hanging baffles mount on the ceiling or hang from the wall, and they contain material that reduces the echo in the room while enhancing other aesthetics. You may need ceiling clouds or acoustic panels to manage the noise in smaller areas. If you care about the appearance of the... --- ### How to Determine the STC Rating of a Wall > Choosing the right noise and reverberation materials for your home, apartment or business is a science.

You might have dealt with noisy neighbors, unwanted traffic sounds, or even general noise pollution before installing your soundproofing material. But now, all you hear is the blissful sound of silence. Even though the drastic change in sound quality might seem like magic, it boils down to knowing what materials to invest in based on factors such as the STC rating of your walls. Choosing the right noise and reverberation materials for your home, apartment or business is a science. In order to achieve the maximum level of performance from your soundproofing materials, it is essential first to know the specifics of the area they will be encasing, starting with the STC ratings of your walls. What Is an STC Rating? The STC rating for walls refers to the “sound transmission class” of your foundation. Not all walls are the same, especially in terms of composition and material. That’s where the STC rating comes into play. STC ratings provide valuable information for homeowners by offering them better insight into the soundproofing quality of their surroundings. This score allows you to know to what degree your wall reduces airborne noise and sound.

Unless you’re lucky enough to move next door to a library, you’ll likely experience noisy neighbors — New York City has more residents than 40 of the 50 states, so you’re bound to hear some commotion along the way. Whatever your main reason is for taking on the Big Apple, you shouldn’t sacrifice your peace of mind and serenity in your own home. Whether you’re a self-made local artist, an active meditator or someone who simply likes to sleep in, here are the quietest neighborhoods in New York City to think about as you’re considering where to live in and near NYC. New York City's Quietest Neighborhoods By Borough New York is renowned for being the city that never sleeps — and for a good reason.

Improve the audio in any sunroom area by following these soundproofing tips. Read on to learn sunroom soundproofing tips! - Published: 2022-01-07 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-soundproof-sunroom/ Who wouldn’t want to spend hours in a sunny, enclosed area watching your favorite show, having conversations with loved ones or even working occasionally from home? Sunrooms offer a cozy, convenient space to relax and entertain. However, sunrooms are often not very efficient at absorbing sound. The reason sunrooms can get noisy is because they’re built with surfaces that allow sound to bounce. Many sunrooms have large glass windows or even ceilings, allowing sound to reverberate. If your sunroom floors are made of a hard surface like marble or concrete, you might notice even more echoing. The good news is that it only takes a little effort to soundproof a sunroom. Top 5 Ways to Soundproof Your Sunroom Try the following tricks to help reduce the racket in a space that should be serene. 1. Add Carpets or Area Rugs to Soundproof Your Sunroom Depending on your preferred aesthetic, you can install or place textile flooring in your sunroom. Rugs and carpets naturally absorb sound. Plus, they add warm, welcoming visual touches to any room. 2. Hang Heavy Curtains Throughout the Sunroom Space Though you might not want to cover your sunroom windows during the day, having curtains for nighttime can make the space seem cozier. The curtains can also help you dampen the sound coming in or going out of the sunroom. Enjoy increased privacy for your family game night. 3. Seal Your Doors With Soundproofing Materials You might be surprised at how ineffective your sunroom doors are at... --- ### Inexpensive Ways to Reduce Noise in Your Dorm > Looking for a few tricks to help reduce noises in your dorm room? Check out this article to learn how to reduce ambient noises without breaking the bank! - Published: 2022-01-06 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/reduce-dorm-noise/ When it comes to college, there’s a time to study and a time to party. Unfortunately, your fellow students may be doing one while you need to be doing the other. You can’t request a soundproof dorm, but dorm soundproofing is something you may sorely need on those nights where you have a big test to cram for, but your neighbors are cranking the tunes and partying the night away. What can you do? You can always ask them to keep it down, but we all know as soon as you get back to your dorm room, the volume will shoot right back up. Plus, you don’t want to be that person anyway — especially if you’re just as likely to be the one partying the next evening. Dorm Soundproofing Tip #1: Work From the Ground Up You’d be amazed how much sound comes up through and across the floor, especially if there are dorm rooms underneath you. The vibrations that travel through your floors from the noisy dorms beneath you can cause quite a disturbance to your studying routine. You'll need to add a layer to your flooring that can absorb some of these sounds and give you more peace and quiet. Fortunately, this is a problem that is easily moderated by a nice, thick rug. Or two. Or three. You may even want to add to the soundproofing with a layer or two of rubber mats underneath the rug. Some nice thick carpeting has the added benefit of... --- ### What Is Acoustic Fabric? > Is noise a big problem in your home or commercial space? Get to know the value of acoustic fabric. Wrap a sound panel with fabric and get ready to combat noise! - Published: 2021-12-17 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/what-is-acoustic-fabric/ You have a noisy space. Maybe it’s relatively small, like a home office or cozy residential home theater nook. Perhaps it’s a large auditorium or room in a restaurant or school setting. Regardless of its size, you want to dampen the sound to provide a quiet, peaceful atmosphere. When researching soundproofing options on the market, be sure to investigate the many uses of acoustic fabric. Acoustic fabric can be a valuable resource if you’re attempting to reduce noise in any given area. Plus, it offers numerous other benefits, such as decorative purposes. What Does Acoustic Fabric Do? Like other common soundproof materials, including barriers and insulation, acoustic fabric absorbs sound by letting it pass through the material. You can think of acoustic fabric as a sort of sponge. Rather than allowing sound to bounce, the fibers embrace sounds. The absorption gives you a quieter space where sound isn’t reflected back into the air. As you might guess, the materials used to create acoustic fabric are essential. Most acoustic fabrics are quite breathable and hold their shape well. They can be natural, as in the case of cotton, or manufactured material, like polyester or nylon. They can also be a mixture of fibers. As long as they absorb sound, they are appropriate for acoustically transparent fabric uses. What Are Some Applications for Acoustic Fabric? In the soundproofing industry, acoustic fabrics are frequently used to cover other sound-absorbing products. A great example of this would be a fabric-wrapped sound panel. The acoustic... --- ### Egg Carton Shapes and Soundproofing > Egg crate soundproofing does, in fact, assist with noise elimination. Read more to find out why soundproofing material is often egg carton-shaped. - Published: 2021-12-09 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/purpose-egg-carton-shape-soundproofing/ Most people searching for do-it-yourself soundproofing solutions have stumbled across the egg carton method. Yes, we're talking about placing egg cartons across walls, ceilings and corners to block sound. While this method is far from effective, something can be said about the shapes of egg cartons and why foams and other materials are available in these configurations. Do Egg Cartons Absorb Sound? The short answer to this question is no, or at least not very well. Egg cartons are designed for one purpose — to protect eggs from breaking. Egg cartons are technically capable of reducing echos in a space, but not enough to notice a huge difference. Egg cartons are constructed out of thin materials like recycled paper and cardboard. Both of these materials have weak sound-absorbing properties. Using egg cartons for soundproofing should only be done if you're working on a tight budget or if you have an abundance of cartons at your disposal. You may notice a hint of sound absorption through the egg carton method, but you'll still hear your neighbors. If you're wondering why egg cartons absorb sound slightly, it's because they can create a barrier between the source of a sound and a nearby surface. Using a broken-down cardboard box will give you a similar effect. Egg cartons change the way sounds move, but they have trouble absorbing sounds sitting in the low-, middle- and high-frequency registers. The Difference Between Egg Crates and Soundproofing Material Some soundproofing foams and materials look like egg crates.... --- ### The Best Place to Sit at a Concert for Sound > Looking for the best concert seating for sound quality? Use our guide to find the best place to sit or stand at a concert. Enjoy your next music venue trip! - Published: 2021-12-03 - Modified: 2024-12-12 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/best-place-sit-at-concert-for-sound/ Your favorite performer or band is finally coming to town, so you jump online to look for tickets. There's only one problem — you aren't sure where to sit so you can hear everything the way it's supposed to sound. Managers of music arenas, halls and theatres often tout their facilities as having no bad seats. In reality, some seats are better than others when it comes to being able to clearly hear the music, singing and talking. Knowing the best place to sit at a concert can heighten your experience quite a bit. Front and Center Is Better for Sight Than Sound Snagging a seat just feet from the stage will give you a great view, but the sound won't be ideal. Typically, speakers are located on the side of the stage and are pointed toward the center of the venue. If you're up front, the best sound will be directed behind you. You'll hear music, but it will have a distorted quality. Sounds Bounce in the Back of the Room Those discount back-of-arena tickets may sound great to your wallet. Unfortunately, far-back seats aren't the best place to stand at a concert. When you're too far from the stage, the sounds that come to you have tons of time to bounce around. They bounce off walls, ceilings and even people. Often, people with discount back-row tickets complain that all they hear is noise. For crisper sounds, you'll need to dig deeper into your budget and opt for seats... --- ### How to Soundproof a Music Venue > Need to add soundproofing to your venue? Learn the basics of soundproofing a venue today with tips, tricks, and quality soundproofing products. - Published: 2021-12-02 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-soundproof-music-venue/ It takes a lot of hard work to build a live music venue. You got the space, built a stage, purchased a sound system and booked some talented artists, but there's more to do to ensure your venue impresses audiences. Soundproofing is essential for any music venue. Let's look at why soundproofing is necessary and how you can make it happen at your club. The Basics of Soundproofing a Music Venue Concerts are extremely loud. As much as pumping up the volume can fuel people's spirits, it can also drive others crazy. As a venue owner, you willhave a few noise challenges to overcome. Echoes and Reverb One obstacle is preventing noise from bouncing around your venue. Hard walls and floors give way to reverberation and echoes that distort sound and can cause feedback issues on stage. A performer will sound better and be easier to mix if you dampen and absorb sound inside your venue. Absorbing and dampening sound is the best way to reduce reverberations in your venue. Place acoustic panels on the parts of your walls that sound hits. The panels will transform the sound energy into heat and absorb it within their fibers.

Learn how sound-absorbing, dampening and insulating materials can help decrease the noise. - Published: 2021-12-02 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/tips-to-reduce-construction-site-noise-prevent-damage/ Construction sites are loud, and exposure to extreme noise can cause occupational hearing loss. You can make personal ear protection more effective by soundproofing your construction site. Different sound-absorbing, dampening and insulating materials address noise in unique ways, and it's essential to understand which is best for your situation. Let's go over some tips for soundproofing your job site. Top 3 Tips for Soundproofing a Construction Site Here's what you should know before you purchase soundproofing materials for your business. 1. Know What You're Going After Soundproofing requires forethought and recognition of the most pressing issues. Determine the sources causing the most noise at work and how they reach your workers: Loud equipment: Most jackhammers, chop saws, hammer drills and similar equipment peak over 100 decibels. Hard surfaces exacerbate the noise these tools make, which means absorption is the best way to reduce the volume. Sound-absorbing materials transform sound into heat, which dissipates upon contacting the absorptive surface. Structural noise: Some equipment causes a building's infrastructure to shake vibrate, causing excessive noise. Nearby steel beams or metal pipes will rattle around, too. Sound dampening prevents structures from moving around. Leaking noise: Sound equipment can be loud enough to cause damage to workers outside of the immediate room. Sound insulation contains noise to a specific area. Insulation can come in handy if you can keep loud equipment in an isolated room or build a containment structure. 2. Get the Right Gear If you know what kind of sound you need to... --- ### How to Soundproof a Closet > Make your closet a refuge from the outside world with the right soundproofing materials for your closet doors, floors & more. - Published: 2021-11-30 - Modified: 2025-01-24 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-soundproof-closet/ A walk-in closet can be a beautiful thing.

Learn more about absorption vs. reflection in this guide! - Published: 2021-11-19 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/absorption-vs-reflection-sound-barriers/ When you're planning to create the perfect sound environment in your home or business, you'll want to understand the differences between sound-absorbing materials and sound-reflecting materials. Both types of products can be highly useful, but they have unique applications. Below, we'll talk about how and when to use absorptive versus reflective surfaces to get the perfect noise enhancement, reduction and clarity results. What Are Sound-Absorbing Materials? Sound-absorbing solutions like acoustic fiberglass and acoustic foam dampen the intensity of sounds by catching sound waves. In fact, their porous nature allows them to reduce most sounds quite effectively. For instance, when sound meets an acoustic cotton sound absorption panel, it doesn't bounce back. Some of the noise may pass through the panel, but it will be muffled or even muted. As you can imagine, many people turn to sound absorption materials when they're outfitting bedrooms and nurseries. A quieter environment results in better sleep. What Are Sound-Reflecting Materials? Unlike sound-absorbing materials, sound-reflecting materials send sound back. They have a harder, less porous surface that reflects sound waves. Here's one way to think of it — when you hit a tennis ball against a wall, the ball will come back to you. When you hang sound-reflecting materials, you get the same effect with sound waves. When Should You Use Absorptive vs. Reflective Surfaces? Here's where the science of sound comes in handy. You can sometimes use a combination of both absorptive and reflective materials to achieve the sound effect that you want for... --- ### The Loudest Noises in the World > What are the loudest noises in the world? Earthquakes, rockets, concerts, your home or office? Soundproof Cow can help you quiet things down. Contact us! - Published: 2021-11-16 - Modified: 2025-01-31 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/loudest-noises-in-the-world/ We've all said it: "Wow! That was really loud! " However, chances are good that what you heard doesn't come close to registering at the decibel levels of some of the loudest noises in the world. Just how loud can noises get? Below are some of the biggest bangs, explosions and eruptions you'll find on Earth. 1. NASA Launches If you're ever privy to seeing a rocket launch, wear lots of ear protection. Rockets usually clock in at around 170-180 decibels. To give you a better idea of how loud that noise is, consider that hearing damage can start with prolonged exposure to 70 decibels. 2. Monkeys and Bats Not every loud noise comes from man-made items. Howler monkeys and some species of bats produce blood-curdling sounds that can hurt your ears. Their cries and squeaks can register in the range of 130-140 decibels. So be careful if you're going on a nature hike in a jungle! 3. Volcanos and Earthquakes Fortunately, volcanos don't erupt frequently. When they do, they release so much energy that the sound travels for miles. Case in point: The 1883 Krakatoa volcanic eruption hit somewhere around 230 decibels. Earthquakes, which are more common than volcanos and measured by the Richter magnitude scale, can be even worse on your ears. A catastrophic 5. 0 earthquake is 10 times the sound intensity of a 4. 0 earthquake. At that level, the sheer magnitude of the sound could be deadly for those without protection from the vibrations and... --- ### The Best Microphones for Streaming and Podcasting > Discover the best microphones for streaming and podcasting!

The acoustics of a room play a huge part in how well your microphone captures your sound, which then impacts your ability to manipulate and edit the sound later. Learning how to properly acoustically treat a room with acoustic treatments can seem complicated, but anyone can do it! In this guide to acoustic treatment, we'll go over everything you need to know to get the best sound quality for your space. What Is Acoustic Treatment? Acoustic treatment sounds like an excellent idea for a home recording studio, so what exactly is it? Essentially, acoustic treatment is the process of improving a room's acoustics, whether it's for a small recording studio, an auditorium or anything in between. Acoustic treatment most often uses acoustic foam, acoustic panels and bass traps. While these can all be different sizes and impact different frequencies, they all have the same job of absorbing sound. Acoustic foam prevents unwanted sound waves from bouncing back to your microphone. Sometimes, especially in bigger rooms, diffusers are also used in acoustic treatment. Diffusers are typically made of wood or plastic, and though they might seem counterproductive to use alongside sound absorbers, they also play a part in good acoustics. Diffusers help break up sounds, reducing echo but still... --- ### Flanking Noise > Learn about flanking noise and the potential flanking path sources. Find out how to reduce flanking noise in your home with soundproof solutions. - Published: 2021-10-25 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/what-is-flanking-noise/ Table of Contents: What Is Flanking Noise Flanking Noise Paths Reduce Flanking Noise So you’ve soundproofed the wall leading from your apartment to the apartment next door, but somehow there’s still noise coming from that direction, although you can’t pinpoint exactly where it’s coming from. If this describes your situation, you may be the victim of flanking noise. But what is flanking noise, and what can you do about it? What Is Flanking Noise? Flanking noise, also called “flanking transmission,” refers to noise entering an area from an indirect method. Even if you are blocking noise coming directly through to your unit through a wall or the floor, there may be noises bouncing off other surfaces and indirectly entering your area, bypassing any obstacles you put in place to block it. Flanking can occur through numerous scenarios. Sound may travel through floor systems and bypass the wall that separates the rooms. Flanking noise can occur through ceilings, especially if there's an attic above the rooms. Additionally, air ducts are a common culprit for transmitting sounds between rooms and floors. This unwanted noise can be frustrating, especially when you make constant efforts to reduce the disturbing sounds. Even after implementing various soundproofing methods, you could find yourself wondering how the sound from a nearby apartment or an attached home could make its way into your living space. Potential Flanking Noise Path Sources To deal with flanking noise, you first have to identify the source. This can be difficult since the noise... --- ### How to Soundproof Speakers > In-wall and in-ceiling home theater speakers can disturb the people around you.

If you have a home theater, you have several options when it comes to the speakers you need and how to set them up. But one thing is for certain — you're going to want to soundproof them. In the following sections, we'll take a look at why you should soundproof your home theater speakers and how you can soundproof in-wall and in-ceiling speakers. Reasons to Soundproof In-Wall Speakers There are plenty of reasons why you should engage in wall and ceiling speaker soundproofing: You'll enjoy better sound quality: One of the main disadvantages of non-soundproofed in-wall and in-ceiling speakers is the loss of sound quality. Without proper soundproofing, the space surrounding the speakers will absorb, muffle and deaden the audio. In other words, your ears will detect less of the intended sound. This obstruction may reduce audio quality and limit your ability to enjoy your home theater. You'll be considerate of other people in your house: If you have other people living with you, then soundproofing your in-wall and in-ceiling speakers is essential. Your speakers transmit sound vibrations throughout your home, causing disturbances to those around you.

This happens once in a while for most people. For those with auditory sensitivity, it can be an everyday occurrence. Common noises such as smoothie blenders, the washing machine or traffic noise can seem overwhelming and even painful for those sensitive to sounds. If you or someone in your household has this condition, you can take steps to minimize its effect. What Is Auditory Sensitivity in Kids and Adults? Auditory sensitivity, sometimes called hyperacusis, affects about one out of every 50,000 individuals — in the United States, thousands of people have been diagnosed with this problem. Others may struggle with it and not realize it. The cause of auditory sensitivity differs from case to case. Some people are sensitive to noises from birth. This usually becomes apparent fully by the time they're preschool or kindergarten age. Other people develop hyperacusis as they age, perhaps because of constant exposure to loud sounds or a correlating hearing condition like tinnitus. With auditory sensitivity, all noises sound loud. The sounds of the world compete with each other, causing a frustrating compilation of multiple sounds at once. This makes it hard for people with hypersensitivity to sound to distinguish individual conversations, focus on tasks and replicate sounds they hear. Symptoms Common in Individuals With Auditory Sensitivity Like most conditions, auditory sensitivity presents itself differently in every person. Below are some of the most common symptoms that may... --- ### How to Build a Soundproof Room Within a Room > Have you ever wanted to reduce the noise coming into or leaving a room?

The most common reasons to soundproof a room involve keeping sound from getting in and preventing sound from leaving the space. For example, in a recording studio, it is essential to keep external sounds from reaching your microphones and equally important to keep loud music from reaching others' ears — especially if you're operating in an area with close neighbors.

The correct open ceiling noise control options make a world of difference if you're using a larger space for gatherings and events. Learn more about reducing the echoes in a room with high ceilings. The Impact of High Ceilings on Room Acoustics When you make a sound, reverberations travel in all directions. In a room with high ceilings, you'll notice how the voices, impacts, footsteps and other noises spiral out of control. Sounds bounce off hard surfaces such as walls and ceilings, causing this dissonance in large spaces. Open ceiling noise control involves interrupting the transfer of noise from one flat surface to another. If you clap your hands in a room with tall ceilings, you can hear how fast reverberations fill the space. The echoes slap back instantly, which can make it difficult to hear guest speakers or even musical instruments close to you. Soundproof Surfaces Inside Your Room Soundproofing or limiting echoes in rooms with high ceilings requires you to note the surfaces you're dealing with. Most residential and commercial structures are filled with drywall, which is an unforgiving material. You can perform the following treatments on various surfaces to improve room acoustics. 1.

One way is to seal any cracks with acoustical sound sealant. Similarly, apply acoustic tape to prevent noise from squeezing through the seams. For any sound that makes it through your seal, hang thick curtains to absorb most of the frequencies. 2. Soundproof the Walls Walls are another common entryway for outside noise.

If you're preparing to build a DIY generator sound enclosure, there are a few things you will want to keep in mind. Other soundproofing methods can completely enclose the space, but with generators, you need to ensure there's enough airflow and ventilation for it to operate safely. Generators produce a lot of heat, so you will need to consider the unit's height and width and make sure any soundproofing materials you add aren't too close to the walls. Determining how to make a generator quiet box has its challenges, as the best soundproofing methods to use will vary based on your material options. If your generator enclosure is made out of metal, it's important to dampen vibrations and sounds. You will want to make sure the enclosure is decoupled from the floor with rubber mounts. Though a wood enclosure is inherently quieter, rubber mounts are important for this material as well. While you don't need to add a lot of mass to any type of generator box, bear in mind that incorporating more absorptive materials can... --- ### How to Soundproof Recessed Lighting > Recessed lights can rattle or allow noise to bleed between rooms, but soundproofing materials can minimize the issues. Shop with the Soundproof Cow today! - Published: 2021-08-06 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-soundproof-recessed-lighting/ Recessed lighting is a popular home feature that consists of lighting installed directly into the ceiling. These lights include trim, housing and a bulb, all of which can be customized to give building owners enhanced control over each room's design. While recessed lights are great for aesthetics, these fixtures present a handful of noise concerns. Installing recessed lights involves creating a break in the ceiling surface that houses them. As a result, recessed lights can allow sound to creep through from above or below. The interchangeable components may also rattle in place when someone or something makes contact with adjacent surfaces. Fortunately, there are ways to soundproof light fixtures for a more peaceful home environment. Let's look at a few tips for recessed lighting soundproofing. Soundproof the Floor Above With Acoustic Underlayment If you have access to the room above your recessed light fixtures, soundproofing the floor can mitigate a lot of the contact noise that causes rattling. Flooring underlayment is a material that you install beneath your floorboards or under a rug to add an absorbent layer that soaks up noise from footsteps, falling objects, moving furniture and more. You can install Impact Barrier QT Flooring Underlayment beneath nearly any flooring surface. Using flooring underlayment for recessed lighting soundproofing is easy and safe, as you can keep it away from the light fixtures and the heat they produce. Insulate the Ceiling Ceiling insulation is another viable option when soundproofing recessed lighting because it gives sound energy somewhere to go.... --- ### Acoustic Panels vs. Acoustic Foam > When soundproofing an area, your choice may come down to acoustic panels vs. acoustic foam. Click here to learn which is right for your needs! - Published: 2021-08-03 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/acoustic-panels-vs-acoustic-foam/ Table of Contents: Acoustic Panels Soundproof Foam When to Use Acoustic Panels Acoustic Panel Benefits When to Use Acoustic Foam Acoustic Foam Benefits Soundproofing can seem like a daunting subject to explore. However, if you want to experience better acoustics for your specific needs, soundproofing is the way to achieve it. As you consider different soundproofing options available to you, two often rise to the top of the search list. These options are acoustic panels and acoustic foam. When choosing between acoustic panels vs. foam, people have differing views on which you should use. But ultimately, all that matters is that you select the correct product for your unique needs. Let's take an honest look at these two soundproofing options to compare acoustic panels vs soundproofing foam. Differences Between Soundproofing Foam and Acoustic Panels Acoustic foam and acoustic panels often come up in the same conversation about soundproofing because both options have their merits. If your goal is to experience better acoustics, either could make some improvement to your space. But the results you're looking for will play a significant role in which option you should choose. The first step in deciding is understanding the differences between these two soundproofing materials. Acoustic Panels Acoustic panels consist of dense materials such as wood for broad-frequency sound absorption. Acoustic panels' thick, rigid construction allows them to absorb the full range of sound, from piercing highs to rumbling lows. These panels are often tall and broad, and can take up several square feet... --- ### How to Soundproof a Chicken Coop > Chickens can be noisy critters, but soundproofing the coop can ensure you and your neighbors wake up peacefully. Contact the Soundproof Cow for more tips. - Published: 2021-07-23 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-soundproof-chicken-coop/ There's plenty of value in owning chickens, and many rural and suburban residents choose to do so. While your chickens provide multiple benefits like a steady supply of healthy eggs and free, natural fertilizer for your garden, they cock-a-doodle-do create a lot of noise. If you or your neighbors are growing tired of the early morning wake-up calls, soundproofing your chicken coop can be the perfect solution. Here's the Soundproof Cow's guide to limiting chicken coop noise. Key Noise Sources Before you can reduce noise coming from your chicken coop, it's important to understand the types of noise you need to combat. Chickens produce two types of noise — impact and airborne. Thankfully, soundproofing tactics can address both types. You may be able to hear scratching and clawing from afar, but the most pertinent noise source to address in a chicken coop is the noise roosters create when they crow in the morning, caw at danger, or argue over a place to roost. These sounds are considered airborne. Trapping Chicken Coop Noise When you want to limit how much noise your chickens make, you'll want to start with their coop. While chickens spend a portion of the day outside where you can't limit noise transfer, they still spend a lot of time in the coop, especially in the morning, when their crows are the most disruptive. Chicken coop soundproofing aims to trap as much sound as possible while still allowing ventilation so the chickens can breathe. There are two primary... --- ### Tips for Blocking out Snoring Noises > Finding ways to block out snoring from your noisy partner can help you get a better night's sleep. Contact Soundproof Cow for more tips on noise reduction. - Published: 2021-07-02 - Modified: 2023-03-16 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/tips-blocking-out-snoring-noises/ A good night's sleep is one of the simplest joys in life, but sharing a home can present a few obstacles that prevent you from drifting off. Fortunately, there's hope for those with a snoring partner to reclaim their restful hours. Let's take a look at some of the reasons for snoring and the best ways to block it out. What Causes Snoring? Before you can make an honest effort at combating your partner's snoring, it's helpful to understand the root causes. Snoring occurs when a sleeping person's airways — their nose or throat — are obstructed. Airway obstruction can happen for a variety of reasons, and some are more preventable than others. Some of the most common factors that lead to snoring are: Sleeping in an odd position: The way your partner sleeps can cause muscles in their nose or throat to loosen, leading to a night of snoring. Everyone's body is different, but sleeping with an open mouth or in a way that gives muscles too much room to expand can create conditions for snoring. Having certain medical conditions: Sleep apnea patients experience interruptions in their breathing during sleep, resulting in gasps or choking. Inflammation as a result of tonsilitis can also clog airways and cause snoring. Being a bit out of shape: Continuing with the theme of loose muscles, out-of-shape or aging bodies snore when the throat muscles aren't strong enough to prevent latent motion. Weakened tissue will vibrate as your sleeping partner breathes, causing them to... --- ### 8 Tips for Reducing Sound Transfer Between Hotel Rooms > Soundproofing a hotel room can improve your guests' experience and lead to future bookings.

To ensure a pleasant customer experience, hotels need soundproofing solutions that work wonders and maintain a professional interior aesthetic. Here are some of our top tips for soundproofing a hotel room so you can provide a more relaxing place to stay. Get a Free Acoustic Analysis Use furniture to your advantage: Before you tear your rooms apart or spend money on materials, be sure to use the resources you already have. Large, fluffy furnishings like beds and couches can soak up a lot of noise, as can rugs, curtains and blankets. Position furniture along your walls to catch sound before it passes to the next room. Install insulation: If you're building new rooms or renovating old ones, decouple the walls between rooms and install soundproofing insulation to fill the space. Also great for use in ceilings, soundproofing insulation will soak up noise and help to reduce energy costs. Coat the walls before painting: Continuing with ideas to implement during renovations, you can give your walls' acoustic performance an instant boost by applying soundproof coating before you paint. This coating disperses sound by converting its energy into heat. The material is easy to paint onto reflective surfaces and responds well to any finish. Hang soundproofing panels:... --- ### Loud HVAC Unit Causes > HVAC systems can be noisy, but knowing the causes can help you reclaim peace. Try soundproofing materials from Soundproof Cow to reduce HVAC noise at home. - Published: 2021-06-24 - Modified: 2025-03-14 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/loud-hvac-unit-causes/ Relaxing with the family, watching a movie or finishing a home recording can be tricky when appliances like your HVAC system won't pipe down. Fortunately, many sources of HVAC noise are within your control. Let's take a look at some of the most common sources of HVAC noise and discuss ways to minimize their effects. Why Is My HVAC Unit So Loud? If you're tired of interruptions during your quiet time, understanding the causes of a sound HVAC system can help you remedy the situation. HVAC noise happens as a result of some of the following issues. Duct debris: Your home's HVAC ducts are responsible for transferring warm or cool air throughout your house, but they can transmit noise just as well. If your ducts have loose screws or begin to collect debris, they'll produce rattling sounds you can hear around the house. In other instances, hissing indicates leaking coolant. Heat pump problems: Heat pumps contain features that regular internal airflow, namely the refrigerant valve on the compressor motor. If the refrigerant valve springs a leak, your heat pump will emit strange hissing or squeaking noises. Your heat pump might also hum when it enters defrost mode. Heat pump air compressors can be noisy even without an underlying problem, so yours may produce noise any time it's on. Furnace failures: Furnaces can also be noisy whether there's an issue or not. Under normal conditions, your furnace will click as it ignites and hum during operation. Listen for sounds like squealing... --- ### Soundproofing a Wall for Axe Throwing > Soundproofing can facilitate a better customer experience at axe throwing locations. Contact Soundproof Cow to discuss acoustic treatments for your building. - Published: 2021-06-18 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/soundproofing-wall-for-axe-throwing/ Axe throwing facilities are tons of fun, and more and more people are taking notice. Many locations across the nation are experiencing a boom in popularity, meaning it's a great time to update your facility and enhance the customer experience. One of the best areas of improvement to target is axe throwing sound reduction. Axes colliding with targets or floors can produce a lot of noise. Add that contact noise with the constant rumblings of a busy indoor facility filled with customers, and you have a recipe for a lot of sound disruption. Fortunately, soundproofing tactics and materials can help. How Can Soundproofing Walls Benefit an Axe Throwing Location? Axe throwing facilities are profitable because they give customers the opportunity to do something out of the ordinary. You can convert your one-time guests into axe throwing regulars by doing everything you can to facilitate an enjoyable customer experience. Reducing noise levels will allow guests to have fun without being disrupted by jarring sounds. As a result, you can develop a consistent customer base and bring in more revenue. The Most Effective Soundproofing Methods for Axe Throwing Facilities If you want to reduce the effects of noise bouncing around your axe throwing facility, there are a few useful tactics you can try. Certain materials have properties that allow them to soak up and disperse sound rather than reflecting it, resulting in a room that feels noticeably quieter.

Find out the principle behind noise-cancelling products. Read this article! - Published: 2021-06-04 - Modified: 2023-08-31 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-do-noise-cancelling-headphones-work/ Sometimes, you just want a little peace and quiet. But blocking out noises can be tough. What do you do when you want to enjoy your coffee shop latte without overhearing the loud conversation three tables over? Or when your neighbor's hired roofers, tree trimmers and landscapers work all weekend, and you're trying to enjoy your days off? That's where noise-cancelling headphones come into the picture. You have plenty of options when it comes to choosing a pair of noise cancellation headphones. However, before you make your selection, you probably want to answer the most pressing questions of all: What is noise cancelling? How do noise-cancelling headphones work? Understanding the Scientific Principle Behind Noise Noise is a rather subjective term. After all, one person's noisy music could be another person's favorite song. Still, all noise is basically sound. You probably learned in school all about sound and sound waves. Most diagrams illustrate the principle of sound with waves on a grid. The waves rise above and dip below a baseline. The louder and more intense the sound, the closer the waves are together — or the higher the frequency of the waves. The quieter the sound, the farther apart the waves are, and the lower the frequency of the waves. Does sound actually travel in this type of wave pattern? Somewhat, although the wave diagram is best-suited as a visual explanation. When you hear noise, you're actually experiencing a brain phenomenon. As the air pressure changes due to slight variations... --- ### Alternates to Earplugs for Sleeping > Looking for alternatives to wearing earplugs to bed? Drown out noise effectively with these options. Find out the secrets to soundproofed slumber right here! - Published: 2021-05-21 - Modified: 2024-03-08 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/alternates-to-earplugs-for-sleeping/ It's happened again. You put in your earplugs before going to bed, only to wake up in the middle of the night and realize one fell out — and the other one feels uncomfortable. How can you possibly get a restful night's sleep? While earplugs work as noise cancellation solutions now and then, they're not meant for the long term. Instead, you'll want to explore alternatives to earplugs for sleeping peacefully. But first, let's consider why your earplugs keep letting you down. Is It Safe to Sleep in Earplugs? Obviously, you're reaching for earplugs to drown out ambient sounds when you're trying to sleep. Maybe your partner snores. Perhaps you've been a light sleeper since birth. Or you might work swing shifts and need to sleep while everyone else in your house is awake and moving around. Whatever your reason for using earplugs, you've probably noticed that they're not necessarily foolproof. In fact, wearing earplugs can have some important downsides: They're usually one-size-fits-most: You're not necessarily "most," which means they can fall out or feel uncomfortable. Earplugs can encourage the buildup of ear wax: Over time, ear wax plugs up the ear canal, affecting hearing. Earplugs can foster an environment that's favorable for bacterial infections: If you're not keeping your earplugs clean, you're headed for trouble. You could have a reaction to the earplug material: Some people can't tolerate the foam used in some earplugs. Starting to wonder if your earplugs are worth the effort? You're not alone. Many people... --- ### How to Treat a Mixing Room > Want to improve your recording process by installing acoustic treatments for a mixing room? Soundproof Cow has options for any setup. Shop our solutions online! - Published: 2021-05-14 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-treat-mixing-room/ Musicians, audio engineers and creatives spend a great deal of time in home studios. No matter how much you spend on studio monitors, microphones and cables for the perfect setup, acoustic treatment for a mixing or mastering room is key to an incredible listening experience. You can make a few adjustments to your space for a significant difference in how you hear your next release. Why It's Important to Treat a Mixing Room Rooms that sound amazing in their natural form are usually engineered for these results. Spaces within apartments, townhomes and other residential dwellings will rarely provide you with optimal sound without treatment. If you plan to record, mix or master audio tracks, you'll want to control your environment to have a say in how sound travels in a room. Sound waves move from studio monitors, amplifiers and instruments in all directions. The right acoustic treatments will reduce those sound reverberations for crystal clear playback. Mixing Room Setup Ideas All mixing and mastering rooms are different, so there is no one-size-fits-all approach for your setup. Start by placing your control desk and studio monitors along the wall farthest away from doors, windows and environmental noises. Ideally, your studio monitors will project toward the length of the room so that soundwaves have a longer path to surfaces behind you. Set your monitors up so that your desk chair puts your ears in the tonal sweet spot. If you were to outline the distances between the speakers and your ears, your... --- ### Tips for Reducing Noise in a Warehouse > Soundproof Cow addresses the best ways to bring noise levels down in a warehouse.

If you've ever been to a basketball game, then you know how loud the court can get — buzzers, running players, stomping feet and an excited crowd can reach 100 to 120 decibels. Sound travels in energy-filled waves. Whenever a player pivots or a referee blows their whistle, impact and airborne soundwaves travel across the basketball court. These noises bounce off the floors, ceilings and walls, causing noise pollution. Too much noise can take away from the game, distracting players and becoming too loud for the crowd to handle. Keep reading to learn more about how you can soundproof your basketball court using DIY soundproofing tools like acoustic basketball court panels, soundproofing insulation, flooring underlayment and hanging baffles. Get a Free Acoustic Analysis Reasons You May Want to Soundproof a Basketball Court When soundproofing your basketball court, you want to control two types of noises. Impact noises: Soundwaves caused by a physical impact are impact noises. Examples of these on and around your basketball court are the sound of a crowd stomping their feet on the bleachers or players' sneakers hitting the ground. Airborne noises: Comparatively, airborne noises are soundwaves that travel through the air. Examples of airborne noises are crowds cheering or buzzers sounding. When left uncontrolled, these noises can cause excess sound that is uncomfortable in large amounts. Luckily, there are ways you can manage excess soundwaves to make playing and watching... --- ### How to Create a Quiet Space in Your Home > Finding a quiet space to work from home is essential in today's economy.

It's become far more common for people to set up at-home offices to complete work for their jobs or school. As a result, it's important to find ways to stay productive and limit distractions. From pesky sounds outside to a roommate's video call across the house, we all experience disturbances that can inhibit our productivity. Creating a quiet space in your home can change your life for the better, but where do you start? Find a Secluded Space to Situate Your Quiet Area Your chosen location for a workspace will directly impact how quiet you can make it. Keep a few factors in mind when planning your respite. For example, your quiet space will be more peaceful if you can keep it away from the most common noise sources. Set up your home office in a place where you won't be disturbed by footsteps, voices, the television or other sounds. Communicate with your family or roommates so they know you're seeking peace and quiet when you use this space. How to Make My Room or Office Quieter With your workspace situated in the smallest room available and the furthest distance from common noise sources, implementing soundproofing strategies or materials can take your quiet space to the next level: 1. Cover the Walls and Floors Soundwaves will reflect off hard surfaces like walls or floors, creating echoes and reverberations that can turn the smallest sound into a tremendous nuisance.

Learn more about reverberation and how to control sound reverb. - Published: 2021-04-13 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/reverberation/ Reverberation plays a key role in any commercial and residential space. Many people blur the defining lines between echoes and reverberations, but they're slightly different. Reverberations in sound occur when multiple sound waves from a single source bounce off smooth surfaces and come back to your ear in a muddled sound. This reflection of sound isn't always a bad thing. If you're a musician, learning how to manipulate reverb can enhance your melodies. But, if you're a college professor, you likely want a shorter reverberation time so students can better follow along with your lesson. Learn more about these key points and how to define reverberation in acoustics below and gain an understanding of the tools you can use to control reverberations. What is Reverberation? When you make a sound, sound waves expel from the sources in ripples. The sound waves, full of energy, travel and bounce off surfaces like floors, walls and ceilings until they run out of energy. Sound reverberation occurs when sound waves bounce off of surfaces and back to your ears, causing a muddied repetition of the original sound. How Is Reverberation Different From an Echo? Have you ever yelled into an open room and heard your voice travel back to you from multiple directions? People commonly describe this phenomenon as an echo, but echoes are slightly different than reverberations. Both terms describe a sound that persists after the source stops. But an echo is the distinct reflection of the exact noise, while reverb occurs when... --- ### Do Landlords Need to Soundproof? > Landlords aren't required to soundproof their properties, but noise reduction can save money and help fill openings. Contact Soundproof Cow to learn more! - Published: 2021-04-02 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/do-landlords-need-to-soundproof/ Soundproofing is an excellent way to make a living space more comfortable by limiting the amount of noise that enters or escapes a space, but who is responsible for soundproofing rental properties? Are landlords responsible for noisy neighbors? As it turns out, the answer depends on the situation. Soundproofing isn't a requirement in any building codes, meaning landlords are not required to soundproof their properties. But they can still benefit from investing in their properties to create a tranquil, livable environment. Implement some noise reduction tactics in your rental property to: Reduce energy bills: Soundproofing materials absorb energy, including heat. By limiting the amount of noise that escapes an apartment, you'll also limit the amount of heat that escapes, allowing tenants to make the most of their energy consumption. Increase tenant comfort: Soundproofing reduces the effects of impact and airborne noise coming from neighbors, allowing tenants to work, study or sleep in peace without distractions from next door. Prevent noise complaints: Because soundproofing confines noise to a space, tenants will enjoy the freedom to make a little extra noise without bothering their neighbors or breaking city ordinances. Fewer complaints mean less hassle for landlords. Fill openings faster: While soundproofing won't directly raise your property's value or the amount you can charge per month, it does make an excellent selling point for any potential tenant. Musicians and other creatives in particular will be ecstatic to learn your building is soundproofed, and any tenant can see the benefits of increased privacy. Affordable... --- ### The 6 Loudest Dog Breeds > Dealing with a barking dog? Learn about the loudest dog breeds and how you can reduce the noise. Reach out to us for your acoustic treatment needs! - Published: 2021-03-22 - Modified: 2025-04-29 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/loudest-dog-breeds/ You can probably think of a few hounds you've met that are in the running for the world's loudest dog, but does this depend on their breed? Some breeds actually have a louder bark in terms of decibels, and some are simply more talkative — which makes them seem loud. Let's find out if your dog is on this list: 1. Golden Retrievers A golden retriever named Charlie has held the world record for loudest bark since 2012! These dogs are known to be loyal and devoted companions, and they often use their booming bark when hunting or protecting their family. 2. German Shepherds German shepherds are great guard dogs and often serve with the police or military. They are always sure to alert you to suspicious movements or intruders with their powerful bark. 3. Siberian Huskies While this breed may not bark a lot, they sure do love to howl. Huskies can be one of the most talkative breeds, and some sounds can often mimic human words. Search for "talking husky" on the internet and be prepared to laugh. 4. Rottweilers and Doberman Pinschers These large and square-built dogs both have very loud barks. Their deep and booming voices can quickly alert surrounding people, making them great guard dogs. 5. Terriers While "terriers" is a dog group rather than a breed, you often see that these dogs are quite talkative — even if their small bodies mean they aren't as loud. Scottish terriers, Yorkshire terriers and Jack Russell terriers... --- ### Everyday Materials That Can Be Used for Soundproofing > Soundproofing with household materials is a great way to reduce noise levels without spending more money. For more helpful tips, contact Soundproof Cow today! - Published: 2021-03-19 - Modified: 2024-12-12 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/everyday-materials-that-can-be-used-for-soundproofing/ Whether you're a musician building a home studio, a college student in a noisy apartment building or one of the countless professionals working from home, a quiet, peaceful space can be invaluable. If high-quality soundproofing gear isn't in the budget just yet, there are still plenty of ways to reduce noise using soundproofing materials found at home. Soundproofing with household items is easier than you might think. Here are a few tips for soundproofing on a budget: Hang tapestries or blankets: Covering hard surfaces like walls and ceilings with tapestries or blankets is an easy way to limit the amount of noise that reflects off those surfaces. To maximize sound absorption, try using multiple layers to create the thickest barrier you can. Strategically position furniture: Couches, pillows, recliners and other furnishings make excellent soundproofing materials because they soak up sound and prevent reverberations. If you live in an apartment with noisy neighbors, situate your couch along a shared wall to soak up noise that transfers through. Hang curtains and blinds: Because windows are meant to open and close with ease, they are notoriously hard to soundproof. Curtains and blinds take the edge off of any noise coming from outside by absorbing soundwaves. As with any soundproofing material, the thicker, the better! Get creative with carpets or rugs: Lining your floors with rugs or carpets is a great way to reduce noise from footsteps or dropped objects both inside your building and for the neighbors below. If you're looking for an... --- ### How to Soundproof a Hallway > Are noisy hallways in your commercial or residential building distracting?

Benefits of soundproofing your hallway include more privacy, lower energy bills, improved quality of life and higher real estate value. Here, you'll learn what tools you need when soundproofing a hallway to receive these benefits. Table of Contents: What are Sound Waves How Do Sound Waves Travel in Hallways? Why Should You Soundproof Your Hallway? Benefits of Soundproofing Hallways How Do Soundproofing Materials Work? How to Soundproof a Hallway - Doors - Walls - Ceilings - Floors Tips for Soundproofing Rooms Leading to a Hallway What Are Sound Waves? Sound is energy caused by: Airborne noises: When sound transmits through the air, like people's voices, they're called airborne noises. Impact noises: Sounds from some sort of impact, like knocking on a door, are called impact noises. The impacted object vibrates, causing sound wave generation. From its source, sound travels via sound waves. Sound waves travel similar to water ripples, like dropping a pebble into a pond. As sound waves travel, they exert energy and eventually become less intense. You can speed up this energy exertion by adding absorption materials, such as professional soundproofing equipment or household items like curtains or rugs. How Do Sound Waves Travel in Hallways? The best way to explain how sound waves travel in hallways is by using an example. Say you're holding the bounciest bouncy ball.

If you have the same problem, you may be familiar with the burning desire to grab your broom and jab it at the ceiling to return the noisy disruptions. We don't recommend starting a noise war, but we can recommend other Soundproof Cow-approved methods to reduce or eliminate noisy disruptions. Here, we'll outline the do's and don'ts of reducing the noise from your upstairs neighbors, as well as the best tools to soundproof your apartment ceiling. Why Your Upstairs Neighbors Sound So Loud Before we dive into soundproofing your apartment, it's helpful to have a relative understanding of how sound works. This knowledge can help you determine the best strategy for tackling the noise from your loud upstairs neighbors. Definition of Sound Sounds are vibrations that travel in waves through a medium — like solids, water and gases. As an example, clap your hands. The contact of your hands creates a vibration. This vibration ripples through the air around you, similar to the ripples you'd see when you drop a rock into water. The sound vibration, or sound wave, bounces off your walls, ceiling and floor, which causes the sound wave to bounce back to your ears as a magnified sound.

Whether you want to soundproof a home studio or entertainment room, or you're looking to reduce noise from heavy machinery at a work site, acoustic foam can make a significant impact. Foam panels limit echoes and reverberations in any residential or commercial setting. But what differentiates it from the everyday foam you'll find in mattresses, pillows or couches? At Soundproof Cow, we provide the information and materials you need for any soundproofing project. There are a few features of acoustic foam that improve its soundproofing capabilities and make it worth the investment. Fibers for the Job The primary difference between regular foam vs. acoustic foam is its cellular construction. Acoustic foam is composed of open-cell polyurethane foam cut to size and shape for various applications ranging from echo reduction and sound deadening to decoration. These materials give acoustic foam unique properties, such as: Intentional density: Acoustical foam comes in different density levels to target specific frequencies. As density or firmness increases, the foam will absorb lower-frequency sounds. Regular foam will still absorb sound at varied frequency levels, but acoustic foam offers maximum precision. Strategic shaping: From wedge-shaped to pyramid, square, and more, acoustic foam comes in various designs that offer different levels of reduction through increased absorptive surface area compared to regular foam. Peak PPI: Acoustic and regular foams have different pores per inch (PPI) ratings that describe the number and size of cells in each inch... --- ### Why You Should Soundproof a Wedding Venue > Reduce outside noises at your wedding venue to facilitate an enjoyable experience for everyone in attendance.

To make sure your space is conducive to smooth, peaceful events that everyone in attendance can enjoy, incorporate soundproofing methods into your wedding venue. Balanced Celebration There's something for everyone at a wedding.

Without proper soundproofing measures, these two equally desirable aspects can clash. Booming noise will make it difficult to hold comprehensible conversations, so implement noise-reducing tactics to create a happy barrier between the rowdy and reserved segments of your party. This way, your wedding venue will encourage a pleasant experience for everyone involved.

Plus, the sound of falling bowling pins can be loud in and of itself. Isolate the sound coming from each section with sound-absorbing materials to ensure that guests can have a ruckus-free experience — or confine the ruckus to a designated area. Movie theaters: With soundproofing materials like acoustic panels, insulation and drapes installed throughout, movie theaters can enhance the sound of any film and make the experience more enjoyable for moviegoers. These products will also help to prevent sound from one film from bleeding into a showing for another.

Then you probably love the sound of birds chirping in the morning or the crackling of the campfire — but not the sound of your noisy campsite neighbors. For a more private camping experience, learn more about how to soundproof a tent. Why Should You Soundproof Your Sleeping Tent? Enjoying your camping experience is difficult when your campsite neighbors are partying all night. If you're relaxing in your tent during the day, noisy children and barbecue parties can battle for your attention. When you're stuck with sound pollution, soundproofing tools can help control noise levels, so you can enjoy your camping festivities. You could invest in a short-term soundproofing tent, but a more long-term solution is investing in soundproofing tools that can stay with you through many tents. Plus, if your camping party has multiple tents, you can all use soundproofing tools to limit outside noise. Benefits of Soundproofing Tents Soundproofing your sleeping tent comes with many benefits, like: Noise reduction: The prominent goal of soundproofing is to reduce sound pollution. Soundproofing tents is slightly different from rooms because rooms have four walls and a ceiling. While you can't completely soundproof your tent, you can greatly reduce the amount of noise that travels in or out. Better sleep: When you're trying to fall asleep, soundproofing makes it so campsite neighbors are less likely to disrupt you. Some soundproofing solutions even double as a sun blocker, so sunshine won't wake you up in the morning. Tent insulation:... --- ### Which Reduces Noise Better — Curtains or Blinds?  > Do curtains or blinds reduce noise better? Read for more information regarding the best soundproofing materials techniques. Contact Soundproof Cow today! - Published: 2021-02-01 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/curtins-blinds-noise-reduction/ If you're interested in reducing the amount of noise from neighbors, traffic or any other source in the outside world, regular furnishings can be incredibly effective while retaining a decorative style you like. Window coverings can work wonders when it comes to dampening sound, but do curtains or blinds reduce noise better? At Soundproof Cow, we're committed to providing customers with the information and products they need to implement effective soundproofing solutions. Learn the differences in noise reduction between curtains and blinds to make the best choice. Do Curtains Reduce Noise? Curtains can add a nice visual touch to a room, and they also have certain properties that make them an effective soundproofing tool. Curtains dampen the level of noise pollution you hear inside your home. A flat, sturdy wall or window will reflect sound waves, while curtains absorb and disperse energy. This is because curtains are constructed of thick, tightly woven materials that leave fewer avenues for sound energy to escape. Curtains are also an effective solution because they have a large surface area. When you hang a curtain, it falls in irregular waves. Uneven surfaces are excellent for catching sound reflecting from different directions. When it comes to soundproofing, the thicker and heavier the curtain, the better. Do Blinds Reduce Noise? Blinds are easy to install and provide their own soundproofing benefits to reduce noise. The best blinds for absorbing sound have multifaceted dampening properties that provide diverse benefits. For instance, cellular shades use honeycomb-like air pockets to... --- ### How to Reduce Excavator Cabin Noise > Extreme noise levels can cause extensive hearing damage, even within an excavator cabin. Contact Soundproof Cow for the most effective soundproofing materials. - Published: 2021-02-01 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-reduce-excavator-cain-noise/ Are you a crew leader looking to protect the health and safety of your employees? Excavation equipment produces incredibly high noise levels, and without necessary precautions, your workers could suffer prolonged hearing damage. Incorporate soundproofing equipment into your workflow to create a safe and productive working environment for your staff. At Soundproof Cow, we develop effective soundproofing materials strong enough to limit noise in most industrial settings. Why It's Important to Minimize Cabin Noise Exposure to high frequencies is dangerous. Over time, prolonged exposure to high noise levels can cause significant, irreversible hearing damage. Our ears contain microscopic hair-like cells called cochlea. When sound enters the ear canal and passes through the eardrum, it reaches the cochlea deep inside the ear. Sound waves cause these hairs to vibrate, but like any material, heavy use causes them to wear down. Eventually, the cochlea will become fatigued and flatten like blades of grass under a parked car's tires. As exposure to intense noise levels continues, the damage becomes more permanent. Equipment such as road rollers, bulldozers and cranes produce noise levels ranging between 90 and 100 decibels, though sometimes more. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulates employee noise exposure to ensure their health and safety in both the immediate and distant future. For example, OSHA requires all employers to have a hearing conservation program for any noise levels above 85 decibels averaged over eight working hours. Falling out of compliance can cause harm to your crew and result in a... --- ### The Loudest Bands in History > Discover 8 earsplitting rock performances from some of the loudest bands in history including Led Zeppelin, AC/DC and more. - Published: 2021-01-22 - Modified: 2022-11-17 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/loudest-bands-in-history/ Rock music has taken on many shapes over the last half-century. From the consumed theatrics of KISS and Slipknot to the raw simplicity of AC/DC, audiences continuously pack stadiums to get a taste of the rock 'n' roll energy. But no matter the band on the bill, you can count on one thing — rock concerts are going to be loud. We're all about finding ways to keep noise in at Soundproof Cow, but today we wanted to take some time to appreciate the bands whose sound just couldn't be contained. Once upon a time, the Guinness Book of World Records kept track and certified the loudest bands on the touring circuit. Today, we know the kind of damage that extreme decibel levels can cause to our ears, but it's still fun to reflect. Eight Earsplitting Rock Performances Here are eight rock performances that truly shook the earth: 1. Deep Purple, 1972: Rainbow Theater in London, U. K. (117dB): Deep Purple cracked the record books with this earth-shaking performance, but they also knocked three out of their 3,000 listeners unconscious. 2. The Who, 1976: The Valley in London, UK (126dB): Guitarist Pete Townsend suffered permanent hearing damage as a result of this set at the home of the Charlton Athletic FC and others like it. The band's record stood for eight years. 3. Led Zeppelin, 1969: Honolulu International Centre in Honolulu, Hawaii (130dB): One of the first truly-loud rock acts, Led Zeppelin took the crown during their performance of "Heartbreaker"... --- ### How to Soundproof Your Kitchen > Whether you have loud appliances, noisy pipes, or uninsulated walls we have soundproofing solutions to help you soundproof your kitchen. - Published: 2021-01-13 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-soundproof-your-kitchen/ Can you hear everything that's happening in your kitchen? Like when someone opens the fridge, washes the dishes or starts the dishwasher? Then, you might want to consider adding soundproofing in the kitchen. Kitchens are bound to make some level of noise. But, that doesn't mean you have to be a victim of noise pollution. Here, we'll walk through the places in your kitchen that produce the most noise, as well as how to soundproof each area to restore peace in your home. Table of Contents: Why You May Need to Soundproof Your Kitchen - Loud Appliances - Noisy Pipes - Audible Sound Travel Between Rooms Areas You May Need to Soundproof in Your Kitchen - Pipes - Walls - Fridge Why You May Need to Soundproof Your Kitchen If noises from your kitchen are disrupting your daily routine, you may need to soundproof your kitchen. The two types of sounds you want to soundproof are: Impact noises: These noises include anything that makes an impact with a solid material. In your kitchen, common examples are dishes clanging together or your fridge's ice maker depositing ice. Airborne noises: Comparatively, airborne noises are sounds that transmit through the air, with common kitchen examples like dishwasher cycles and running water. Kitchen culprits of both impact and airborne noises are: 1. Loud Appliances Kitchen appliances will always make some sort of noise.

But when it comes time to sell, you may find yourself wondering — will soundproofing my home increase its value? Soundproofing might not be the most effective quality to increase home value, but it certainly won’t hurt. In fact, many incredible benefits come along with controlling the amount of noise that enters and exits your walls that can’t necessarily be quantified by a dollar amount. Soundproofing your home or apartment can positively affect your home and your quality of life in ways you might not expect. Face-Value Benefits Soundproofing is generally an unsung hero of home design. Like thermal insulation, it’s not something you’d see when viewing a property, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t making a difference. Some of these benefits speak for themselves. 1. Noise Reduction You might soundproof your home to drown out the noise from the street or your neighbors. On the other hand, if you happen to be the noisy neighbor, courteously dampening your volume output can go a long way. 2. Better Acoustics Soundproofing solutions lead to better acoustics in your home, which is a perfect selling point for musicians who need a tight place to record — but it also helps the general homeowner and tenant. It’s a touch easier to... --- ### The Best-Sounding Music Halls in the World > Check out the top 5 best-sounding music halls in the world and discover how you can improve the acoustics in your studio. - Published: 2020-12-28 - Modified: 2024-12-12 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/best-sounding-music-halls-in-the-world/ When you think of performances from world-renowned musicians, you may picture concert halls with extravagant architecture and a vast amphitheater concourse filled with listeners clinging to the edge of their seats with every note. In the theaters considered to be the best music halls in the world, there’s a certain connection forged between performers and audiences that simply can’t be replicated – as if some intangible force unites us around the sounds we experience, drawing us back time and time again. The world’s most famous concert halls have garnered their esteem for a reason. Each venue performers and listeners consider to be among the best concert halls in the world is intricately and uniquely designed to enhance sound and amplify our collective resonance with it. Check out five of the best-sounding concert halls in the world — and a few of the key soundproofing features that distinguish them from the rest. 1. Musikverein in Vienna, Austria: 1744 Seats Regarded by many as the best concert hall in the world, Musikverein’s modest size and shoebox shape result in stunning sound quality. This classic hall opened in 1870. It has a high ceiling and plaster interior for lengthy reverberation, and its irregular interior surfaces trap just the right amount of sound. 2. Symphony Hall in Boston: 2625 Seats Built in 1900 and implementing a similar shoebox design strategy as Musikverein, this theater is often considered to be the best in the United States. It is built with brick, steel and plaster along... --- ### Tips for Reducing the Noise of a Portable Air Compressor > Limit the amount of sound your portable air compressor produces with our tips for how to reduce noise from a portable air compressor. - Published: 2020-12-24 - Modified: 2025-01-14 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/tips-reducing-noise-portable-air-compressor/ While portable air compressors are handy tools for businesses and contractors working in manufacturing, construction or the automotive industry, they create a lot of noise. Prolonged exposure to high sound levels can cause long-term hearing damage. That said, there are a few techniques that can limit the amount of sound your portable air compressor produces. Here are our tips for how to reduce noise from a portable air compressor. 1. Use a Muffler A large proportion of the noise produced by your air compressor comes from the machine's air intake. The intake pipe funnels incoming air past a flapper valve or reed, causing it to rattle off high-frequency noises. Mufflers function as both an air filtration and silencing device. They cycle air through tubes and sound-deadening materials while still allowing plenty of airflow into the system. Measure your air compressor's intake pipe to find a muffler that's right for your system. 2. Add Rubber Grommets Rubber grommets can reduce vibrations, limiting the amount of contact noise your air compressor makes while running. If your air compressor rests directly on the ground or another hard surface while in use, it will vibrate and produce a lot of extra noise. Rubber grommets will function as a barrier between your air compressor and the surface it rests on to absorb vibrations and significantly reduce noise. 3. Dampen the Sound With Blankets If you're looking for a cost-effective DIY noise suppression solution, wrapping your air compressor with blankets can help to reduce high- and... --- ### How to Make Your PC Quieter > Need to make your PC quieter? Check out Soundproof Cow's tips to help make your PC quiet today. - Published: 2020-12-24 - Modified: 2023-03-16 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-make-your-pc-quieter/ Whether you use your computer for work, gaming, music production or any other purpose, a quiet PC is key. PC noise can bleed into any recordings you make or otherwise distract you from the projects that require your full attention. A noisy PC may even signal that it's time for repairs. Fortunately, there are a few tactics you can implement to reduce noise and maximize your computer's longevity. At Soundproof Cow, noise reduction is our specialty. We've put together a few tips to help make your PC quiet. 1. Check the Fan and Dust It Computer fans are the greatest offenders when it comes to PC noise. As your computer runs hot, the fan has to work harder to keep the system cool. If your fan isn't strong enough for the job, it'll spin faster and faster, creating more noise. Dust and debris clogging your PC's fan or air filter will cause it to heat up more quickly. Routinely cleaning your PC and updating your fan with a low-speed model will reduce a great deal of noise right off the bat. 2. Change Your PC Case Changing your PC case can give your computer a fresh look while increasing its functionality. Airflow is an essential feature of a quiet PC, so you'll probably want to replace your case with a shell that allows your computer's components to keep cool. Shop for cases that offer enhanced airflow capabilities and lighten your PC fan's workload. 3. Change Your Power Supply Your PC's... --- ### Anti-Vibration Materials for Trucks > Discover what may be causing vibration in your truck and learn about solutions for reducing vibration with soundproofing materials from Soundproof Cow. - Published: 2020-12-18 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/anti-vibration-materials-for-trucks/ Truck vibrations can be caused by various factors — ranging from the truck itself to outside elements like traveling over potholes or rough road conditions. While it can be hard to determine where it's originating from, asking yourself questions — like whether the vibration only happens at certain speeds, whether it happens when the car is standing still or whether it's concentrated in a specific location, such as the steering wheel or seat — can help you diagnose the vibration. Here are a few other things to know about truck vibrations: 4 Common Reasons Why Your Truck May Vibrate Sometimes, the vibration is nothing to worry about. Other times, you'll want to take your truck in for a mechanic to look at it and conduct repairs if you suspect something more serious, such as a suspension issue. If you've been experiencing this, check out four of the most common reasons why your truck may be vibrating. 1. Tires Tire issues are the most common cause of vibration. If your tires have uneven wear or a separated tire tread, they won't be able to make even contact with the road, leading to an uneven ride and vibration. A faulty wheel and tire balance or loose lug nuts can also be at fault. Something as simple as rebalancing or fixing the alignment can resolve the vibration. 2. Brakes There are various brake issues that can also cause your truck to vibrate. The most common issue, though, is warped brake rotors. You might... --- ### How to Protect Hearing While Operating Trucks > Operating trucks with excessive noise can cause long-term hearing damage. Read our tips to discover soundproofing solutions for truck drivers. - Published: 2020-12-11 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-protect-hearing-while-operating-trucks/ One risk that truck drivers can face is hearing damage due to excessive noise. There are two main sources where excessive noise can originate from — the engine and the road. Typically, some engine noise is to be expected. But sometimes the truck's engine can be excessively loud. When this happens, you won't be able to escape the sound and you'll have to hear it the entire time you're operating the truck. Road noise can come from a variety of sources — from honking cars in traffic to nearby construction. These kinds of environmental sounds can vary in intensity and duration. What Are the Risks of Excessive Noise Exposure When Operating Trucks? Prolonged exposure to excessive sounds coming from the truck itself or the environment can lead to hearing impairment or permanent hearing loss. Usually, this occurs when the frequency of the noise is around 4000 Hz. Even something as simple as driving with the window down and being exposed to excessive sounds and carbon monoxide can lead to hearing loss. Once hearing loss or damage occurs, the effects can be irreversible, especially if the inner ear's nerve endings have been damaged. Not being able to hear puts the driver at risk for a variety of potential accidents. Not being able to hear cars honking or sirens blaring puts the truck driver in a vulnerable position. Soundproofing Solutions for Truck Drivers to Prevent Hearing Loss Some truck drivers attempt to protect their hearing while operating trucks by wearing earplugs, earmuffs... --- ### Decorative Home Soundproofing Options > Looking to add soundproofing to your home but also want to improve the room aesthetics?

The walls in many studios are lined with grey fabric panels or plain foam. If the idea of plain or unattractive paneling has kept you from properly soundproofing your business or home, you’ll be glad to learn that you have other options — including our decorative acoustic panels. What Are Decorative Soundproofing Panels? Decorative sound absorption solutions from Soundproof Cow don’t require you to sacrifice style for silence.

Read our tips for how to reduce echos in a room with soundproofing materials. - Published: 2020-11-20 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/reducing-echo-in-a-room/ Table of Contents: What's An Echo Echo Causes How to Get Rid of Echoes When you were a kid, you might have enjoyed shouting your name into an empty room to hear it bounce back. Now, however, having an annoying echo in your house can be a problem. It can be distracting and can make phone calls or videoconferences more challenging. If you like to record audio, whether it’s a podcast or a quick note to yourself, an echo can interfere. In some cases, echoing rooms can make it hard to watch TV or even have a conversation. You might be playing music, chatting with someone or turning up the TV when you hear the noise reverberating back at you. Or maybe you accidentally drop something and the clatter seems to amplify itself. When every little sound you make bounces through your room, you might start feeling like you have to tiptoe around to keep things quiet. If it seems like everyday noises sound extra loud and echo back at you, try exploring ways to adjust the acoustics in your room so that you can get clearer sound quality. What Is an Echo? An echo occurs when sound waves bounce off hard surfaces, such as walls, ceilings and floors. They are most common in large, empty rooms. However, they can happen in smaller spaces, too, if there are enough hard surfaces to bounce off of. If you have two hard surfaces close together, sounds can bounce back and forth between... --- ### 6 Tips for Choosing Noise-Canceling Headphones for Your Home Office > Having the right noise-canceling headphones for your home office can help you block out distractions. Read our tips for choosing the perfect pair of headphones. - Published: 2020-11-18 - Modified: 2022-11-17 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/tips-choosing-noise-cancelling-headphones-for-home-office/ Noise-canceling headphones are great for musicians and listeners who want to block outside noise from derailing their sessions, but they are also home office necessities that can be a lifesaver for remote workers. With so many options online, it's important to understand the ins and outs of the market so you can pick the right headphones for your needs. How to Choose the Right Noise-Canceling Headphones Before you buy, consider these helpful tips from Soundproof Cow for choosing noise-canceling headphones: Learn how noise-cancelation works: Noise-canceling headphones function by either passively or actively blocking sound. Active technology uses mechanisms such as microphones and speakers to counter and offset incoming noise. Passive sets are more accurately described as noise-isolating headphones. They rely solely on the headphones' structure and absorbing materials to lessen the amount of noise that reaches your ear. Consider the pros and cons: Are noise-canceling headphones right for you? Consider that they are more expensive than typical headphones and will have shorter battery life. They can also be dangerous to wear when traveling on foot near busy roads because of how well they block noise from the outside world. While they're incredibly effective, they don't block all sound, so users risk damaging their ears by turning up their volume to compensate for leaks. However, if you're already considering how you'll benefit from noise-canceling headphones for home office sound reduction or industrial work, the pros will likely outweigh the cons. Noise-canceling and -isolating headphones provide invaluable relief for workers looking to... --- ### Steps to Build a Soundproof Room With Ventilation > Discover the materials needed and steps to create a soundproof room with ventilation. - Published: 2020-11-06 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-build-soundproof-room-with-ventilation/ Soundproof rooms are useful for leisure and professional applications. Whether you are building a music studio or you work for a broadcasting company, you must control the sounds coming in and out of a space to record without interruption. Plus, there's a chance you'll spend hours at a time in your new soundproof room — so incorporating air vents is important for safety and comfort. Your soundproof room should be closed off when tracking, so there are a few modifications you can perform across your HVAC system to limit echos, slap back and unwanted reverberations. The Importance of Quiet Ventilation in a Soundproof Room If you want ductwork in your soundproof room, you'll need at least a 6-inch hole in the wall. Untreated metal ducts, intakes and exit vents create an environment where you can hear your HVAC system's air handler during operation. DIY builders and professionals will notice excess rumbling as the system pushes air from point A to point B, so building a sound-absorbing chamber is a cost-effective way to reduce noise transmission. Materials Needed to Ventilate a Sealed Room If you're building a soundproof room with ventilation, you'll need the following materials: Plywood sheets (half-inch thick) Flexible conduit Acoustic foam Screwdriver Wood saw Wood glue Tape measure Building a Sound Maze in Soundproof Room With Ventilation Closing off HVAC system ducts in a soundproof room makes the room feel stuffy.

Explore the best music for babies to fall asleep to and get some ideas for helping your child get the rest they need. How Music Helps Babies Fall Asleep When you integrate music into your child's naptime or bedtime habits, it can make your daily routines easier and benefit your baby's health. Quiet, calm music signals to your child that it's time to relax and rest. If you consistently use the same music, your baby will start to recognize it as part of their sleeping routine. Try using music to get your infant ready for bed, but then turn it off once they're headed off to sleep. That way, your little one will learn to sleep soundly even if they can't have that consistent sound playing in the background. What Is the Best Music for a Baby Nursery? The best music to put a baby to sleep to is quiet, calming and ambient. To avoid accidentally waking up your baby, you'll want to steer away from more energetic beats or louder music that could jerk them back into alertness. Try one of these types of music for a calming ambiance in the nursery: Classical music: Classical tunes have a calming effect that... --- ### How to Soundproof a Semi-Truck > If you're driving a noisy semi-truck, check out these tips for how to soundproof your truck doors, floor & roof using our soundproofing materials. - Published: 2020-10-23 - Modified: 2025-02-28 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-soundproof-a-semi-truck/ More than 3. 5 million Americans drive trucks for a living, making it one of the country's most popular occupations. Many of these drivers are full-time semi-truck operators who live, work and sleep in their rig most of the year. While this is a great way to keep costs low and help you travel with some of the comforts of home, it can also be a distracting environment for sleep or after-work relaxation.

Spread them out: Acoustic panels are less effective when they're clumped together in one section of a room, so spread them evenly throughout the space for the most effective treatment.

Have you ever wondered about how music achieves this, though? Check out some of the many benefits music offers while you are working out and recovering. How Music Benefits You While Working Out Music and movement are closely linked — having the right playlist can motivate you and help you exercise longer. While rocking out to your favorite playlist, you may feel distracted from what you are doing and excited about checking cardio off your to-do list. This renewed motivation can help you start and continue working out even when you'd otherwise feel like quitting. You may even feel your mood lift as your physical performance peaks. Pairing Music to Your Workout Different genres and styles of music can have various effects on your mindset and motivation when working out. Two specific aspects of music — the tempo and rhythm — determine how well your music pairs with your workout. Genres that tend to have a fast beat, such as rap or rock, can increase your heart rate and get you motivated to hit the treadmill or elliptical.

Get tips for how to avoid the triple leaf effect in your space. - Published: 2020-08-21 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/triple-leaf-effect/ If you're looking into soundproofing walls, floors and ceilings for a commercial or at-home DIY project, you've likely seen the "triple leaf effect" mentioned. But what exactly is it, and how does it affect soundproofing? What Causes the Triple Leaf Effect? When people talk about a "leaf" in a wall, they're referring to a solid layer of drywall. A single leaf wall has one sheet of drywall with no air cavity, while a double leaf wall has two leaves of drywall with one air cavity between them. A triple leaf wall has three leaves with two air cavities between them. You might assume that the triple leaf wall would be ideal for soundproofing because there's more solid mass for sound to penetrate. Because the air cavities between the drywall leaves are small, however, they actually make it easier for sound to travel — especially sound at lower frequencies. Why Is the Triple Leaf Effect Bad for Sound? The practice of leaving air space between drywall leaves is known as decoupling, and it's meant to make it more difficult for sound to pass through walls. Decoupling works best when the air cavities between the leaves are large for better sound absorption. The small air cavities typically found in triple leaf walls act like springs for sound and create resonance. Resonance must be as low as possible for effective soundproofing, and to achieve low resonance, you need a deep air space with a large mass on either side. At any given size... --- ### 12 Items You Need for Your Home Office > From office desks & chairs to computers & monitors, there are a variety of items you need in your home office. - Published: 2020-08-19 - Modified: 2025-02-28 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/items-you-need-for-your-home-office/ Your home office is a place dedicated to work and skill-building.

Desk There is no universal "one size fits all" desk, so you need to find what works best for you. Will you need space to organize documents and keep them within reach? If so, you'll want a desk with a lot of built-in storage options. If you prefer having double monitors or space to keep your printer, consider a desk with plenty of surface area. If you're struggling to squeeze a desk in a smaller office or you've dedicated a section of a room as a workspace, try finding a smaller option or an option you can fold up when it's not in use. 2. Office Chair An ergonomic... --- ### How to Soundproof Your She Shed > Transform your she shed into a quiet retreat.

How do you marry the modern open office with the traditional private space to work? The answer is as simple as using office partitions. Modern office partitions are customizable dividers that can help reduce the chaos of a large office, allowing your employees to focus on their work better without feeling like they're cut off from their co-workers. Partitions essentially provide employees a room of their own so they can spread out enough to work comfortably without infringing on their colleagues' space — all of which culminates in comfortable and satisfied employees. Why You May Need Acoustic Partitions in an Open Office Privacy is the most obvious reason you may be considering acoustic partitions, but there are other advantages to having workspace partitions in your open office. The other two reasons are acoustics and productivity. 1. Privacy Open office spaces have their benefits, but when it comes to employee productivity and satisfaction, some privacy is much needed. One study revealed that, of people who work in an open office space, 85% are dissatisfied with their workspace and 95% admitted having some privacy was crucial to their productivity. While interactions with co-workers are important, the need for a personal workspace without prying eyes or hovering managers increases employee morale and improves overall productivity. It's not just individual employees who need their own space to work in.

The cause? Exposure to loud noises. Hearing damage is a permanent health condition and warrants the need for precaution and awareness, especially if you find that you're regularly exposed to sounds proven to damage hearing. In this guide, we've compiled a list of what noise levels and sounds damage hearing so that you can do your part in protecting your ears. What Noise Level Damages Hearing? A single loud blast — also known as impact noise or impulse noise — that lasts for longer than one second can cause permanent hearing loss immediately. Fireworks and gunfire are some of the most common examples of impact noises. Impulse noise is measured in dBA, and impulse noise greater than 140 dBA will damage your hearing right away. In addition to impact noises, any sound that is 85 dBA or above can cause noise-induced hearing loss. To understand the average decibel levels for everyday sounds as well as what noises are considered safe or dangerous, see the list below: Impulse noises at 140 dBA and above — not safe for any period: Fireworks at 3 feet, shotguns and firecrackers have a noise level of 150 dBA and should be avoided.

Sound waves are affected by many different things, but a handful of qualities impact the acoustics of lecture halls the most — size, architecture and materials. Size: Lecture halls are distinct from normal classrooms because of how large they are. Since sound weakens as it travels, the greater distances between walls impact how audible a lecture is. Architecture: Sound waves reflect off objects they hit, but the shape of the objects determines... --- ### Sounds to Help Babies Sleep > Learn about the different benefits and strategies for using soundproofing to help your baby fall asleep and sleep through the night. - Published: 2020-07-02 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/sounds-to-help-babies-sleep/ Whether this is your first child or your fifth, every baby has different noise needs when it comes to falling asleep, and figuring out those needs can be a guessing game for you. So if sleeping through the night is something you can only dream of for both your baby and yourself right now, you are not alone. In fact, studies show that only 57% of newborns sleep for eight hours straight through the night. With nearly half the baby population waking up throughout the night, we decided to share some of our secrets for reducing loud noises and increasing soft sounds to help little ones sleep. From white noise machines to classical music, read on to learn about the different benefits and strategies for using sound to help your baby sleep through the night. Helping a Young Child Fall Asleep Bedtime shouldn't be a battle. But it can certainly feel like one when even after you've successfully gotten your child into bed, it's still a challenge to get them to fall asleep. One of your biggest opponents in this battle is noise from other areas of your house, which can float into your child's bedroom and keep them from drifting off to sleep. Babies can be especially sensitive to sound disturbances. A stray laugh from the living room can be enough to rouse a baby from the brink of falling asleep. If noise from other rooms in your house is making it difficult for your child to fall asleep,... --- ### Is Styrofoam Good for Soundproofing? > Have you ever wondered if sytrofoam is a good soundproofing material for your home or studio? Learn more about styrofoam and soundproofing here. - Published: 2020-06-19 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/is-styrofoam-good-for-soundproofing/ While looking for soundproofing solutions for your home or studio, you may have come across styrofoam as a solution. While styrofoam can significantly dampen or cancel out noise when it's paired with denser materials, it doesn't achieve adequate results on its own. Styrofoam, or polystyrene foam, has thermal properties like fiberglass and is lightweight, making it one of the most common plastics used in the manufacture of packing and insulating materials. The petroleum-based plastic is also an effective insulator and shock absorber, so if you've ever asked if styrofoam absorbs sound, you're not too far off the mark. Styrofoam is better able to condition sound when it's used with denser materials that have greater mass. Shop soundproofing Materials Eco-Friendly Alternatives: Noise-Canceling Alternatives to Styrofoam While hanging styrofoam noise-canceling panels in a room may reduce sound by small margins, it will not provide a completely effective soundproofing solution. Putting the limitations of polystyrene foam aside, it can also impact the environment in sub-par ways. The manufacturing of styrofoam releases hydrocarbons into the atmosphere, and the material can pose several risks to landfills. Today, many companies are producing acoustic panels designed explicitly for soundproofing a room quickly and efficiently. Examples of eco-friendly alternatives to styrofoam include: Quiet Batt® Soundproofing Insulation: Made of densely packed cotton fibers, Quiet Batt® Soundproofing Insulation is a highly effective thermal insulation product designed for both interior and exterior walls. Soundproofing barriers: If you're looking to block short-term noise or would like to steer clear of installation, soundproofing... --- ### What Is the Quietest Sound a Human Can Hear? > Have you ever wondered what the quietest sound a human can hear is? Find out here! - Published: 2020-06-05 - Modified: 2024-02-14 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/quietest-sound-human-can-hear/ Have you ever been sitting on the couch with your dog or cat, watching a movie comfortably, when their ears perk up? What could they have possibly heard that captured their attention? They probably heard something outside that you just weren't physically able to pick up. Just as we humans can only see the "visible" wavelengths of light in the vast electromagnetic spectrum, we can only hear a small portion in the auditory spectrum. So what is the quietest sound a human can hear? First, let's take a look at how we measure sound intensity — decibels. What Is a Decibel? Scientists at Bell Telephone Laboratories coined the word decibel in honor of their namesake, inventor Alexander Graham Bell. As a unit of measurement, though, decibels mean nothing on their own. They're a ratio used as a reference point. For example, it's some current quantity we wish to define, or "x," as it relates to our predefined "R" quantity. So then, we must know what R is. But, in this case, it's the smallest sound the average adult can detect at 1 kilohertz, which can change from person to person. Typically, zero decibels sound pressure level (SPL) corresponds to 0. 000002 Pascals — a measure of vibration or pressure waves that we really hear. So then, zero decibels is the smallest level of sound our ears can detect! So there's our answer, in its simplest form. Right? Wrong. Well, Sort Of The quietest sound a person can hear is not... --- ### How Sound Affects Your Child's Development > There are many sounds your children are exposed to every day like traffic, toys and tv. Find out how loud sounds can affect your child's development here. - Published: 2020-05-22 - Modified: 2025-04-29 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-sound-affects-your-childs-development/ From toys and traffic to TVs and telephones — the amount of sounds you and your children hear every day seems normal to everyone. However, the difference between sounds and noises is that noises are undesirable, while sounds are everything we hear. But sound and unwanted noise, especially at high volumes, can be annoying at best and, at worse adversely affect your child's development. 1. Loud Sounds Can Impair Hearing According to the NIH, sounds 70 decibels (dB) or less are generally safe. To put that in perspective, the sound intensity of normal conversation clocks in around 60 dB, while a normal passenger vehicle hears city traffic at 80-85 dB. Over time, exposure to sounds 85 dB or higher will greatly increase your risk of hearing loss. The intense sounds can come from sources you are exposed to every day, such as traffic, shouting, personal listening devices and TVs. They, in turn, put your children's hearing development at risk. The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), which is in charge of monitoring the effects of noise pollution, estimates that more than 5 million children suffer from noise-induced hearing loss. This can lead to worsening ear conditions, resulting in long-term hearing loss and tinnitus. 2. Speech and Language Can Be Affected This noise pollution that leeches into classrooms and homes can hamper your child's ability to develop proper speech skills. That's because the part of the brain that's responsible for some hearing and memory capabilities — the temporal lobe — also... --- ### What Is Sound Diffusion? > Learn how sound diffusion works and what you can do about sound diffusion in your space with sound absorption materials from Soundproof Cow. - Published: 2020-05-08 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/what-is-sound-diffusion/ If enjoying quality sound is important to you personally or professionally, you should understand the concept of sound diffusion. What is sound diffusion, how does it work, and how does it affect you? Sound diffusion refers to the diffusion of sound waves in a particular area. Any kind of diffusion refers to a substance — in this case, sound — that spreads out from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration. If there is space for a material to spread out, it will usually do so, and sound waves are no exception. How Does Sound Diffusion Work? In some cases, sound diffusion is desirable. When you play music, for example, you want it to fill the whole room. If you are giving a speech to a large crowd, you may use a microphone, which amplifies the effect of sound diffusion. Sound diffusion can become a problem in spaces that are not designed with acoustics in mind. If a room is small enough and has multiple hard and flat surfaces, the sound will bounce off those surfaces back into the middle of the room and potentially interfere with the original sound. This creates an effect of hearing the direct sound mixed with the delayed, reflected sound, resulting in undesirable reverberation and echo. What Is Sound Absorption? Sound absorption is essentially the opposite of sound diffusion. Sound absorption occurs when a room has porous surfaces rather than hard, flat ones. The sound waves hit the wall, either pass... --- ### Finding the Right Hearing Protection > Frequent loud noise exposure from a hobby or career can damage your hearing. Discover the types of hearing protection you can purchase to protect yourself. - Published: 2020-05-04 - Modified: 2022-09-30 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/finding-hearing-protection/ Excessive noise exposure can be accidental or a result of an ongoing hobby or career. Sometimes, you can move away from the noise or limit the amount of time you're exposed. But when you can't escape machinery, loud music, aircraft, power tools or other equipment, it can lead to hearing damage. Sound and Its Effect on Hearing In the simplest sense, sound is a result of vibration through matter. High levels of sounds, or these vibrations, can have a direct impact on hearing and even lead to irreversible damage. Hearing damage can make it hard to communicate with others and lead to buzzing, humming or ringing in the ears, known as tinnitus. Noise-Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL) is not uncommon — out of adults ages 20-69, almost one in four had features of NIHL. If you cannot reduce or minimize your exposure to excessive noise, you must use hearing protection. Different Types of Hearing Protection Ear protection can range from reusable to disposable options. It's always best to get your doctor or audiologist's advice on what option is best for you. Here are a few different types to consider and discuss with your medical professional: Foam earplugs: These are the most common earplugs on the market. They are usually disposable, and you can buy them in places such as your local drugstore. High fidelity earplugs: These reusable earplugs help ensure the original sound stays clear while the volume is attenuated to lower levels. Custom earplugs: An audiologist typically makes these earplugs... --- ### Best Post-COVID Business Practices > Find out three things that small business should focus on to reintegrate or modify their operations post-COVID. - Published: 2020-05-01 - Modified: 2024-05-22 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/best-covid-business-practices/ Unfortunately, pandemics such as the current COVID-19 crisis have more than just biological effects. When we're faced with ongoing restrictions, future uncertainties and public health conditions that are rapidly changing, businesses and the economy are impacted as well. Because this pandemic is still evolving, businesses must be vigilant and adapt to survive the conditions set by the virus. There are several practices for safety, communication and management that can help small businesses across all industries and locations. COVID-19 Best Practices While always gaining insight from legitimate sources such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and World Health Organization (WHO) to guide all decisions, small businesses should focus on three key strategies to reintegrate or modify their operations. 1. Protect Your Employees and Customers If your business is open, the safety of your employees and customers needs to always remain at the forefront. Be sure to post reminders in the workplace as well as internal communications regarding basic safety practices such as: Handwashing Disinfecting frequently touched/used areas Social distancing Covering coughs and sneezes Wearing face masks Self-isolating if sick or exposed to others who have been sick To minimize the risk of exposure, consider disabling policies that worked in the past, such as needing a doctor's note to validate illness. It can be difficult to receive results rapidly this way, and the longer an employee is around others in the workplace, the greater the chances are that they'll infect others. 2. Consider Alternative Ways to Continue Operations While... --- ### How Late Can You Play Loud Music? > See how soundproofing products can increase your ability to play loud music without neighbors complaining. - Published: 2020-04-17 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-late-can-you-play-loud-music/ If you love music, you probably like to play it loud from time to time. If you live in an apartment or close to your neighbors, your ability to play loud music is somewhat dependent upon those around you. Most people accept that it’s okay to play music during the day, but loud music late at night is a different question. How late can you play loud music? Does it matter if it’s the weekend? Is there a legal answer? Laws in the U. S. Related to Noise at Night The accepted standard is that people should not be playing loud music (50 decibels or higher) between the hours of 11 p. m. and 7 a. m. Many feel that it is acceptable to push that to midnight or 1 a. m. on weekends and holidays. While these are good rules of thumb, none of these guidelines are laws. People are legally required to respect noise pollution protections, according to the Noise Control Act of 1972 governed by the Environmental Protection Agency. However, local governments and to some extent state governments are responsible for their own noise regulations. In short, before you play your music over 50 decibels at 10:30 PM, you should do some research into what the regulations are in your state and community. Similarly, before reporting one of your neighbors for loud music late at night, you should know what the rules are. If you receive noise complaints from your neighbors, the easiest thing is to try... --- ### Tips for Flipping a House > If you're planning on flipping a house, read our tips for things to consider before purchasing and while renovating houses. - Published: 2020-04-09 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/tips-for-flipping-a-house/ You buy a run-down house, fix it up, sell it and make a ton of profit: Reality TV shows have made DIY house flipping look super easy.

Contact Soundproof Cow for a free acoustic analysis. - Published: 2020-03-20 - Modified: 2025-01-29 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/what-is-an-acoustic-consultant/ Are you designing a building, a room or a recording studio? Are you currently looking to renovate and upgrade one of these? If the answer is yes, you have probably done a lot of planning and may have even brought in some experts. But one resource you may have overlooked is an acoustic consultant. This lack of expertise can create issues that may be difficult to correct later. If you're wondering what an acoustic consultant does and why they're so important, keep reading for a better understanding of the acoustic consulting business. What Does a Soundproofing Consultant Do? Different types of rooms have different requirements and needs when it comes to acoustics. In a recording studio, you don’t want outside sounds interfering with your recording. In a restaurant, you want diners to be able to hear waiters and their table or bar mates without having to raise their voices and strain their ears. At a dance club, you want everyone to be able to hear and enjoy the music without excessive reverberation or dead spots where the sound doesn’t reach. Achieving those different goals can require the use of different materials, altering the dimensions of the environment and demanding different types of soundproofing or sound absorbing products. The job of the acoustic consultant is to figure out what is required. Acoustic consultants are trained experts regarding sound and its properties. When it comes to your project, they become something like sound detectives, analyzing what in your room may be interfering... --- ### Principles of Soundproofing > Find out what makes soundproofing materials effective and the four sound insulation principles that guide us in creating our products at Soundproof Cow. - Published: 2020-03-06 - Modified: 2022-11-17 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/principles-of-soundproofing/ Quick Links to Soundproofing Principles: Mass Dampening Decoupling Absorption When you think of soundproofing, you likely tend to imagine elaborate, fully-furnished basements or garages loaded with electric guitars and a drum set or expensive, high-tech recording studios. But soundproofing can be helpful in many more common scenarios and in your everyday life. Maybe you live in a building with noisy neighbors. Maybe you can't concentrate on work in your home office when your son is blasting music in his room. Or maybe you want to turn the volume up on your own music without disturbing the other people in your home. Whatever the case may be, reducing noise pollution can have positive effects on your comfort, health and happiness. Soundproofing Principles What makes soundproofing materials effective? The following are four sound insulation principles that guide us in creating our products at Soundproof Cow. 1. Mass Mass is a fairly straightforward soundproofing principle — the greater an object's mass, the harder it is for sound to shake the object or push through. What will be harder for you to push: an empty shopping cart or a cart full of rocks? A heavier object contributes to sound isolation, but adding mass isn't enough on its own to soundproof a room. To really minimize noise pollution, we also consider other sound isolation principles. 2. Dampening Have you ever made a wine glass ring? If so, you probably know you can silence the glass by holding it. By stopping the vibrations, you can eliminate... --- ### How to Soundproof Your Man Cave > Take your man cave to the next level by installing soundproofing solutions.

After all, trains only come around every once in a while and how bad could train noises be? Unfortunately, train noise and sleep, concentration and relaxation just do not go together. You don’t have to give up your great new place, though! We’ve assembled these tips for how to block train noise, so you can have the best of both worlds. Shop Soundproofing Materials How to Reduce Train Noise The rattling of the train on the tracks is one thing, but that 100-decibel train whistle gets impossible to deal with before long. Trying to figure out how to drown out train noise just replaces one loud sound with another. What you really need to know is how to soundproof a house from train noise. Here are some ideas: Outdoor sound-blocking barriers: If you’ve ever seen the tall fencing that separates houses from a busy highway, you know the value of sound-blocking barriers. Help absorb sound by adding dense hedges and shrubs to your yard. A fence can also help diminish train noise by 5-10 decibels while also reducing the sound of nearby traffic. Sound-blocking curtains: Your windows are one of the areas that let the most sound into your home. Luckily, they’re also one of the easiest to improve! Adding soundproof curtains is... --- ### Things to Consider Before Constructing a Commercial Space > There are many things to consider when constructing a commercial space. Read some of the most important things you want to include in your planning. - Published: 2020-01-17 - Modified: 2024-02-23 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/things-to-consider-before-constructing-commercial-space/ A lot goes into commercial building construction, and as any architect, contractor or designer knows, planning is critical. When you make a mistake or leave something out while building a commercial building, you can’t always go back and fix it without tearing things down and starting over. Here, then, are some of the most important things to consider when it comes to commercial building design. The Type of Building You’re designing a commercial building, but not all commercial buildings are the same. Are you building an industrial plant or some kind of factory? Are you making a retail store? A gym? A restaurant? Each type of commercial building has different needs. Some may need to be street-facing, while some are better out of the flow of traffic. Some will have most of the activity happening on the ground floor, while in others, the higher floors will be where all the action is taking place. It’s important to know going in which type you are dealing with. Zones and Permissions You can’t just build whatever you want, wherever you want. Your commercial building is part of a larger community, and that community has rules. You don’t want to find out after you have designed a 12-story building that your location is only zoned for 10, or that the materials you planned to use for 80 percent of the building don’t conform to local code regulations. Make sure you know all the zoning regulations and have all the permissions you need before... --- ### How Background Noise Affects the Way You Work > Background noise in your office can impact the way you work. Discover how soundproofing solutions can help you manage distracting office noise. - Published: 2020-01-03 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-background-noise-affects-the-way-you-work/ Years ago, people didn’t give much thought to office background noise. Sound effect issues were rarely studied because many office workers were either executives who worked in closed offices or employees who were expected to deal with whatever environmental factors were present. Today, however, many offices are laid out according to an open workspace plan, meaning there are few — if any — closed offices. This setup is believed to enhance communication and creativity, but it also means all kinds of different sounds are traveling all around the office at all times, and the cacophony that results is often not the best background noise for working. Your ears are trained to pay attention to human speech, so you may find yourself eavesdropping on co-workers’ conversations even if you don’t want to. This issue can interfere with your ability to do your own work. Even if you’re not actively listening, different sounds reflecting off the smooth, hard surfaces of your open office and crashing into each other can create harsh noises that are a massive distraction. Research shows that workers can lose nearly an hour and a half worth of activity in an eight-hour day to the distraction of noise pollution. In addition to distraction and loss of concentration and productivity, noise pollution in the office can actually create physical stress. You may have noticed your stress levels rising when you were in the presence of loud traffic, screaming children or other unpleasant sounds. If that's true, you're not alone. Prolonged... --- ### What Is an NRC Rating? > NRC(Noise Reuction Coefficent) ratings measure how much sound a soundproofing product can absorb. Learn more about the importance of NRC ratings. - Published: 2019-12-20 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/what-is-an-nrc-rating/ One of the most important things to know when it comes to a soundproofing product is its NRC rating. So what is NRC in acoustics, and why is it so important for soundproofing? The NRC Rating Explained NRC stands for Noise Reduction Coefficient, and it's a measure of how much sound a soundproofing product can absorb on average. If something is absorbing the sound in a room, that means you aren’t hearing the sound, so the higher the NRC rating, the more effective the product being tested is at soundproofing. NRC ratings are on a scale from 0 to 1, so something with an NRC of 0 absorbs no sound at all, while something with an NRC of 1 absorbs any and all sound waves that make contact with it. Something with an NRC of 0. 5 would absorb half of the sound that hits it while reflecting the other half back into the room. How Is NRC Tested? Naturally, at Soundproof Cow, we're aware that knowing the NRC rating of each of our products is extremely important and that we need an effective method of testing that rating. We do so by putting a speaker and a microphone in an enclosed room. First, we generate sounds in the room without soundproofing to get a baseline. We place the microphone and speaker on opposite sides of the room and have the speaker emit sounds of varying frequencies, specifically 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 1,000 Hz and 2,000 Hz, as these pitches... --- ### Noise at Work: Using Sound to Stay Focused > Discover how sounds, background noise and soundproofing may help improve focus while working or studying. - Published: 2019-12-20 - Modified: 2025-04-29 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/noise-at-work/ If you have trouble focusing at work, you know that anything and everything can turn into a distraction. Bosses talking at the water cooler yank you out of your zone, while coworkers pounding away on keyboards throw a wrench in your focus. You probably want to avoid noise at all costs, but you can use it to your advantage — just not this kind. What offers the most benefits is peaceful background noise, not cacophony that makes you want to pull your hair out. A study from researchers at Edith Cowan University found that a phenomenon called stochastic resonance explains why many experience better concentration in the presence of background noise. Onno van der Groen's team found that study participants displayed faster, more accurate decision-making skills when they experienced random noise stimulation. In addition to this, past studies have found that stochastic resonance helps balance and muscle function — and improves hunting skills in marine animals. All sounds possess different characteristics and purposes, however. Generally, white noise is better for focus and productivity, while ambient noise fosters creativity. Ambient sounds can range from flowing waterfalls to the steady hum of life in a coffee shop. The noise level depends as well — too loud, and it becomes distracting all over again. However, the differences in sound effectiveness largely depend on one factor — you. Every person likes a different type and level of background noise. Humans are wildly diverse — brain variability determines whether or not a specific method will... --- ### Noise-Canceling Headphones > When buying headphones, you should understand the basics of what noise-canceling headphones offer.

Learn how you can soundproof a room for sound control while recording. - Published: 2019-11-01 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-soundproof-room-for-voice-recordings/ One of the first things you need to know when making a professional recording is how to soundproof a room. But why is this so important? And what steps can you actually take to make sure your room is properly soundproofed for voice recordings? Why Do You Need Soundproofing for Voice Recording? In your normal daily activities, you probably don’t notice how much background sound is bouncing around. There might be humming electronics, street noise or people talking in the background, for example. It’s easy to tune these things out during your daily activities. But when you’re making a recording with the intention of capturing a specific sound or voice, those background noises suddenly start screaming. Your recording will be hard to hear and sound unprofessional. You want the room properly soundproofed so that outside noises cannot get in and so any reverberations or conflicting noises are absorbed and don’t interfere with the voice of the person you're recording. How to Soundproof a Room for Recording Vocals There are three things you want to think about when trying to soundproof a room so that you can record clean vocals. They are: 1. Adding Mass to the Walls You’ve heard the expression “these walls are thin,” meaning people on the other side of the wall might hear what you are saying. This description is accurate. The thicker the wall, the harder it is for sound to travel through it. If your recording studio happens to have three-foot-thick concrete walls, you’re in... --- ### What Are the Characteristics of Sound Waves? > Sound waves are caused by energy moving through air, water or other materials as tiny vibrations. Learn more about the characteristics of sound waves! - Published: 2019-10-18 - Modified: 2025-01-29 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/characteristics-of-sound-wave/ You probably know that the sound you hear is the result of sound waves. But what are sound waves, exactly? What are their characteristics? And how do they work? What is a Sound Wave? A sound wave is caused by energy that moves through air, water or other materials as tiny vibrations. For example, when an object like a cell phone vibrates, it creates a disturbance, which propagates as a sound wave. Properties of a Sound Wave The five main characteristics of sound waves include wavelength, amplitude, frequency, time period and velocity. Sound Wavelength: The most important characteristic of sound waves may be the wavelength. Sound consists of a longitudinal wave that includes compressions and rarefactions as they travel through a given medium. The distance that one wave travels before it repeats itself is the wavelength. It is the combined length of a compression and the adjacent rarefaction, or the distance between the centers of two consecutive rarefactions or compressions. Soundwave Amplitude: The amplitude is the size of a given wave. Think of it as sort of like the wave’s height as opposed to its length. The soundwave amplitude is more accurately defined as the maximum displacement of the particles the sound wave disturbs as it passes through a medium. Frequency: The frequency of sound refers to the number of sound waves a sound produces per second. A low-frequency sound has fewer waves, while a high-frequency sound has more. Sound frequency is measured in hertz (HZ) and is not dependent... --- ### The Pros and Cons of Quieter Cars > Learn more about electric vehicles and noise pollution and how you can soundproof your car with our soundproofing materials. - Published: 2019-10-17 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/pros-and-cons-of-quieter-cars/ Traffic noise, especially car noise, can be some of the worst kind of noise pollution. The loudest cars are usually the oldest ones. Internal combustion engines make a lot of noise, and not only are older cars less likely to have measures in place to dampen noise, but they're also more likely to have loose or worn-out parts under the hood rattling around and creating even more noise pollution. It shouldn’t surprise you that some of the quietest cars are often some of the most expensive, although this is not always the case. Cars like the Audi A8 and Cadillac CT6 are loaded with sound-deadening material to allow the driver and passengers to fully appreciate the high-fidelity surround sound stereo systems that are often inside. Some cars, like the Lincoln Continental or Lexus LS, actually generate active white noise to counter unwanted sounds. This is all great for the people inside the car, but even high-end, “quiet-running” cars can make a significant amount of noise to people outside the vehicle, especially when you punch the gas. The list of cars that don’t make very much exterior noise includes electric vehicles. And this can actually be a problem. What's Wrong With Quieter Cars? If you’ve ever sat in traffic with the window open or been unfortunate enough to live near a busy intersection, the idea of a completely quiet traffic flow probably sounds like music to your ears. And in a lot of ways, the idea of quiet cars is a... --- ### Soundproofing While Remodeling > When remodeling a space, it's a good time to consider soundproofing.

Read our tips for the best ways to divide a room. - Published: 2019-09-20 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/good-ways-to-divide-room/ The great thing about a studio apartment is that it's a simple living space that is usually inexpensive. The not-so-great thing is that it's only one room. For some people, this may be all right — but if you have a roommate, or if you like a little separation between your bedroom and living room, workspace or dining area, you need to know how to divide a room. How to Divide a Room Fortunately, there are a number of good ways to divide a room in a studio apartment relatively inexpensively. What you choose as a studio room divider depends on your goals for dividing the apartment. Here are some creative ways to divide a room in your studio apartment: Curtains: Sure, you normally think of curtains as an item that keeps people from the outside looking in, but they can be very effective as room dividers as well. Mount a curtain rod and hang your favorite curtains from it for a fashionable room divider that you can change out whenever you're in the mood for a new pattern. Bookshelf: One of the great things about bookshelves is that they are natural room dividers. You can choose a bookshelf that's open on both sides so you can access the books (or whatever else you keep on your bookshelves) from either of your new “rooms,” or you can choose a closed bookshelf and decorate the closed side with posters, wallpaper or whatever seems appropriate. Projector Screen: This is a fun solution... --- ### The Benefits of Using Caulking for Soundproofing > Caulking is a great soundproofing solution if you have unwanted noise getting into your room. Learn more about the benefits of acoustic caulk. - Published: 2019-09-06 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/benefits-using-caulking-for-soundproofing/ Table of Contents: What is Acoustic Caulk Why Get Soundproofing Caulk Acoustic vs Regular Caulk There are many ways to soundproof a room, and the way you choose will be largely dependent upon what kind of room or facility you are trying to soundproof. Soundproof Cow can help you with any type of soundproofing you choose, of course, but one quick and easy way to start is with acoustic caulking. If you are finding that unwanted sound is getting into your bedroom while you are trying to sleep or watch TV, caulking may be a great solution. Shop Acoustic Caulk What is Acoustic Caulk? Acoustic caulk is commonly used to seal gaps between walls, floors or ceilings to help prevent sound transmissions. Why Should I Get Soundproofing Caulk? Sound travels through the air, which means if you're experiencing a greater level of sound coming into a room, there’s a good chance it's because a greater than necessary amount of air is flowing into the room. If you have ever thought about insulating your home, you understand how air can flow through gaps in walls, under doors and around windows. Caulking can solve this problem, creating a tight seal around these gaps that air, and subsequently, sound, cannot travel through. You can reduce sound coming into your home by up to 15 percent by caulking around outlet boxes, in drywall cracks and in floorboard cracks. You could also install weatherstripping under doors and along the edges of windows. Storm windows can... --- ### How to Block out Noise While Sleeping > Noise throughout the night can lower our quality of sleep.

Unfortunately, we now live in a society where noise is ever present, especially if we live in an urban environment. How to Sleep With Noise Tips Today, to get healthy sleep, we need to learn how to sleep through noise and how to reduce noise while sleeping. Here are some tips on how to block out sound when sleeping: Do Deep Breathing Exercises: If getting to sleep with noise is the challenge, try deep breathing. Slowly breath in for a count of three, then breath out for a count of three. Repeat this a few times, increasing the count until you feel totally relaxed. Practice Meditation: Meditation has been known to have a variety of health effects and may promote better sleep even in noisy environments. By turning your focus inward, you can learn to shut out the sounds of the outside world. Use White Noise: White noise machines blanket your room with frequencies so harsh noises do not stand out and disturb you. These machines offer a variety of frequency-blanketing options and are great for helping you get to sleep and stay asleep. You can purchase a white noise machine in a store or online.

If you're a retailer who occasionally or frequently plays music in your store, you probably already have a good idea how noise affects your shopping experience. The research is clear: Music makes shoppers feel good. Even bad music, as long as it is at a pleasing volume and pitch, can have a positive effect. Studies show that shoppers who listen to music are more patient in line, report more positive experiences, and even make more impulse buys. Studies also suggest that retailers may want to tailor their music to the response they desire from their audience. Classical music creates an atmosphere of quality and expense and may increase sales in stores with high-end merchandise. Pop music can encourage younger people to enter your store more often and stay longer. If you’re not getting the right response from your customers, you may want to consider changing the music. But noise in shopping locations is not always beneficial for all people. Those with autism and those with audio sensitivity can be quite disturbed and distracted by overhead music. Having music piped in can also be problematic for those with hearing loss, as they may have more difficulty hearing those around them because of the music. So, if you are a retailer, what can you do to reap the benefits of music while not alienating part of your customer base?

Do you want to flee every time your housemate coughs? If certain noises drive you crazy while no one else seems to notice, that doesn't mean you're a lousy friend, spouse, coworker or family member. However, it might mean you have misophonia. Misophonia can be an isolating experience. If you have misophonia, you might avoid certain social situations like eating around others or attending lunch meetings. Some individuals with misophonia avoid doing activities they enjoy, like going to the movies, for example, in fear of encountering sound triggers like other moviegoers munching on popcorn. While in some cases, misophonia is mild and easy to manage, it can become so severe it leads to depression or interferes with relationships, work and everyday life. Although there is a lot yet to learn about misophonia, there is treatment available to you so you can enjoy life and not worry about annoying sounds. And, even if your family doctor has never heard of this condition, you're not alone — misophonia is a lot more common than one might think and is estimated to occur in as much as 20% of the population. Many others might not realize they have misophonia or are embarrassed by the condition. In other words, it's likely that millions of Americans have this disorder and suffer in silence. In this post, we'll explore misophonia further, answer frequent questions and look at treatment options.

Read some facts to help you understand the impact sound has on your sleep cycle. - Published: 2019-06-21 - Modified: 2025-03-14 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-sound-impacts-sleep-cycle/ Are you getting enough healthy sleep? Is loud noise during sleep getting in the way? Proper rest is an essential part of good health, and it is imperative that you understand the relationship between sleep and sound. Here are some facts that can help you understand how sound impacts your sleep cycle and ideas on what you can do about sleep and noise pollution effects. How Does Sound Affect Your Sleep? Although sound can disrupt your sleep anytime throughout the sleep cycle, it tends to be most disturbing during State 2 Sleep, that period when you have fallen asleep but not yet reached the deeper, dream-state of sleep known as REM sleep. We spend about half the night in this non-REM sleep, so disruptions to it can be significant. That being said, some noises can rouse you out of that deep, REM dream sleep, as well, which can be even more disturbing. It's critical that you get enough quality sleep every night. Research shows that noise pollution and lack of sleep can both have serious health effects. It doesn’t need to be particularly loud noise to disrupt sleep — sound as low as 30 decibels can do the trick. Traffic noise usually comes in and around 70 decibels. Different sounds can affect different people in different ways. If you've had young children, you know a baby’s cry can awaken a parent from sleep almost instantly, while those who live in high noise pollution areas can often sleep through sounds that... --- ### The Health Benefits of a Quiet Home > Having a quiet home has many uinque health benefits. Find out how you can enjoy a quieter home with the right soundproofing materials. - Published: 2019-06-07 - Modified: 2022-11-17 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/health-benefits-quiet-home/ If you’ve ever been sitting in your home trying to block out the sounds of screaming kids, barking dogs, ringing phones or or construction outside, you probably took some time to think about the health benefits of silence. We all want peace and quiet, but are there really health benefits to a quiet home? Indeed, there are. How Noise Hurts You Multiple studies have shown that a variety of sounds that occur naturally in an urban environment can have seriously negative effects on your health. Some of us have become so used to these sounds that we may not even consider noise pollution a serious issue. We may not even think about it until the sounds get so loud, we simply cannot tolerate them anymore. But it may be time to start thinking more seriously about making sure your home is a quiet home. Medical conditions resulting from noise pollution in your environment can range from the obvious auditory impairment, which can be permanent, all the way to long-term, neurological damage. Harsh noises in the home have been associated with respiratory issues and cardiovascular issues including high blood pressure. How a Quiet Home Helps You In contrast, as you might expect, taking steps to make sure you deal with less harsh noise in your home on a day-to-day basis can have some great health benefits. One of the most important is lowered stress levels. Stress is one of the major contributors to ill-health, putting pressure on our heart and suppressing... --- ### The Importance of Caulking for Soundproofing Doors > Door caulking may be the solution if you are experiencing sound issues. Find out what caulking is and how it can help you soundproof a door. - Published: 2019-04-19 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/importance-caulking-for-soundproofing-doors/ When you’re soundproofing a room, you need to consider all of the aspects of a room that can affect sound transmission. If you’ve applied soundproofing insulation to your walls, put down underlayment to your floors and even set up some bass absorbers, and you’re still experiencing sound issues, the problem just might be your doors and windows. Door caulking may be the solution. What Is Caulking? Caulking a sealant you can apply to various gaps in your windows and doors. As the caulk dries, it forms a hard seal that prevents anything from getting through. Why Do You Need Caulking When Soundproofing a Door? If you feel that unwanted sounds are getting through your door, you can apply a soundproof covering to that door, but you may find that some sounds are still getting through. If this is the case, acoustical caulk may be the answer. Acoustical caulk, or soundproof caulk, is a special type of caulk designed to aid in door soundproofing. One of the biggest challenges when it comes to soundproofing is preventing the transmission of airborne sound, such as people talking, stereos, televisions and pet noises. As the name would indicate, these sounds travel through the air, so even if your home is fully soundproofed, any part that is exposed to air is open to sound intrusion. Caulking can help you block those areas where air, and hence sound, is entering. Benefits of Using Caulking for Soundproofing Doors Caulking can be used to soundproof the molding on... --- ### How the Construction of a Theater Impacts Non-Amplified Sound > When desiging a theater, it is important to consider the acoustics. Discover how the construction of a theater can impact non-amplified sound. - Published: 2019-04-05 - Modified: 2024-10-31 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/construction-theater-impacts-non-amplified-sound/ Acoustics are critically important when building a theater. The entire point of a theater is to allow a large group of people to experience a performance that incorporates sound effectively, and if you do not design your theater properly, your goal could be doomed before it even begins. Reverberation Effects in Buildings Knowing this, what considerations do you need to take into account when designing your theater? When dealing with theater sound, you want to think about reverberation, or how well sounds are reflected or absorbed around the room. Although rooms where conversation is critical, like conference rooms or offices, wish to avoid reverberation as it can interfere with clear speech, an environment where you want sounds to spread around and linger prefers it. In fact, a theater with poor reverberation has a “dead” sound quality. For this reason, most theaters are designed to be fairly round, with curves enclosing the audience. This makes it easier for the sound to bounce back toward the listeners, allowing the musical notes and words to reach the entire crowd. Some architects may choose to add acoustic sails to the theater as well. These are large panels that can be angled to reflect sound toward various spots in the theater to optimize the audience’s listening experience. It’s also important to note that in larger spaces, sound may not seem as loud, while in more compact spaces, it is amplified. You will have to balance your desire for a high-capacity facility with your need for... --- ### How to Soundproof a Drywall Ceiling > Drywall ceilings that aren't soundproofed can transmit a lot of unwanted noise. Learn how you can soundproof yoru drywall ceiling to reduce unwanted noise. - Published: 2019-03-15 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-soundproof-drywall-ceiling/ A drywall ceiling can be extremely useful, but can also create problems. Specifically, a drywall ceiling that lacks soundproofing transmits a lot of sound from above. This problem can be frustrating if you're in a room where the need for noise control is paramount. Fortunately, there are many ways to effectively soundproof a drywall ceiling to prevent most unwanted sounds from entering or escaping the space. Here's how. Tips for Soundproofing Drywall Ceilings The trick to soundproofing a drywall ceiling is controlling these two factors. Airborne noises: Noises that travel through the air, caused by sound vibrations. Examples of airborne noises are people talking, dogs barking or your upstairs neighbor's television in the middle of the night. Impact noises: Noises that travel through a medium as a result of physical contact. Examples of impact noises are the sounds of footsteps, dishes clashing together or someone knocking on your door. Control both noises by creating a "floating ceiling. " Place a soundproofing barrier between the ceiling and drywall. This sound-absorbent barrier makes minimal contact with the other two levels. It limits the paths airborne and impact noises can take when traveling through the drywall ceiling. Also, you can attach joists to the ceiling, allowing you to affix additional soundproofing insulation — just as you would soundproof a wall — for greater soundproofing power. Adding soundproofing insulation also saves energy costs by preventing heat from escaping during the winter or entering during the summer. Ways to Soundproof Drywall Ceilings Here are some... --- ### How to Soundproof a Hardwood Floor > Discover ways you can soundproof your floors to prevent unwanted noise. Floor underlaymenet from Soundproof Cow is ideal for soundproofing your floors. - Published: 2019-03-01 - Modified: 2024-11-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-soundproof-hardwood-floor/ Knowing how to soundproof a hardwood floor can be a valuable skill in a wide variety of situations. If you own an apartment building or manage a hotel with hardwood floors, every footstep, dropped item and dragged piece of furniture will travel to the room below, which can be annoying for tenants or guests. In addition, some building codes and housing organizations may require that floors have adequate soundproofing. Ways to Soundproof Hardwood Floors While you can soundproof a floor by putting carpet over it, this can defeat the purpose of having a hardwood floor and also may not provide you with adequate soundproofing. A much better solution is to put down an underlayment, a barrier made of sound blocking or dampening material that goes underneath the hardwood floor, with the hardwood surface then glued or nailed down on top of it — gluing is recommended, as some sound could travel via the nails. Benefits of Soundproofing Hardwood Floors Once you know you have adequately soundproofed your hardwood floors, you can enjoy a number of benefits, including not having to worry about whether your rooms are up to building codes, a much more peaceful environment in locations where you have hardwood floors and greater satisfaction of tenants or guests who are paying you to maintain acceptable living conditions. In addition, putting in quality soundproofing can increase the value of a property, be it a home, apartment complex or commercial facility. Knowing that the property is a sound-controlled environment can be... --- ### Soundproofing Home Appliances > Home appliances can be noisy but with the right materials you can soundproof them to reduce noise. Learn how to soundproof a dishwasher & refrigerator. - Published: 2018-12-07 - Modified: 2025-03-31 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/soundproofing-home-appliances/ There’s no question that as great as home appliances are, they are also noisy. Sometimes, that noise means there is something wrong, but often, it is just the sound of a machine doing its work. Soundproofing home appliances can create a much more tranquil home environment, but is it really possible to soundproof home appliances? How to Soundproof Home Appliances You can definitely soundproof home appliances with the right material and the right approach. Two types of home appliances that are among the noisiest and are actually easy to soundproof are refrigerators and dishwashers: 1. How to Soundproof a Dishwasher First, of course, turn off the dishwasher and unplug it for your safety. Then simply remove the front panel of the dishwasher, and place a Soundproof Cow Quiet Board™ Acoustic Panel in between the front panel and the dishwasher. Screw the panel back into place and enjoy a quieter dishwasher experience! The Quiet Board™ Acoustic Panel is a moisture-resistant product that soaks up sound. As your dishwasher creates noise on the inside, the panel will employ its dual-purpose function to block and deflect the noise. You may also want to replace the soundproof insulating blanket that comes with your dishwasher, as this can tend to wear out quickly and offer little sound control assistance. Specialized soundproofing insulation is an excellent replacement for your current materials. Purchase a roll and cut it to fit around the top and sides of your dishwasher to prevent noise from reverberating inside its cubby. 2.... --- ### How Sound in Restaurants Impacts the Food Taste & Dining Experience > Sound in restaurants can impact taste & dining experiences.

If you work in a restaurant, you know that smell and taste are closely related, but what about the effect of noise on food perception? Is it real? It is, and it's one of the reasons why it's so important to soundproof a restaurant to maximize your opportunity for success. How Does Sound Impact Taste/Dining Experience? Sound can impact both taste and dining experience. There is a part of our nervous system where taste bud stimulation crosses the eardrum, which means certain sounds may stimulate certain taste buds. Furthermore, high levels of sound tend to suppress our perceptions of sweet and salty flavors, while enhancing umami flavors. That might be okay if you manage a Japanese restaurant, but it's not so great if you serve dessert. Furthermore, a loud, noisy restaurant is simply distracting and makes it difficult for diners to enjoy their food. Most diners tend to say that they have a better experience in a less noisy restaurant environment, despite the propensity of some restaurants to turn up the music as loud as possible. How Soundproofing Can Help Improve the Dining Experience How can soundproofing help improve the dining experience, and what are the right materials to use for soundproofing restaurants? There are a number of ways you can deal with the noise problem in restaurants through sound control solutions. One easy solution that can make a big change is to invest in some of Soundproof Cow’s EchoAbsorber™ Hanging Baffles.

Types of Backyard Soundproofing Options Learn more about the ways you can reduce noise in your backyard: Shrubs and hedges: You may already have these controlling sounds in your backyard without even realizing it. Plants tend to be great sound absorbers and can afford you a measure of visual privacy as well. They also look nice and are great for the environment, releasing more oxygen into the air for everyone to enjoy. Water features: Another combination of a naturally pleasing aesthetic and effective sound control, a nice water fountain or similar water feature can create some delightful white noise effects that relax the mind as they cover up surrounding harsh noises. Fences: Ultimately, the more enclosed an area is, the easier it is to control the sound within that area. While the only way to completely enclose a backyard area is with some kind of pergola or sunroom, a good fence can do a lot for keeping your sounds from disturbing the neighbors and keeping them from disturbing you.

Women who work in technical fields where loud noises are standard should educate themselves on the potentially harmful side effects sound can have on their child. Even when the level of noise you hear daily is beyond your control, it’s essential to understand what impact noise has on your body while pregnant to take the proper precautionary measures for added safety and security. How Loud Noises Impact the Mother Anyone should strive to eliminate as much stress as possible from their life. For a pregnant woman, this necessity is even more significant because stress can impact both herself and the child she carries. Stress is one of the potentially adverse side effects of loud noise. Whenever possible, a pregnant woman should reduce the impact of loud sounds she experiences during pregnancy to avoid unnecessary tension and anxiety. Loud noises during pregnancy can also lead to an increased risk of hypertension and gastrointestinal upsets.

That’s where 3D audio comes into play. 3D sound provides an innovative experience for listeners, causing them to feel like they’re actually immersed in the audio “environment. ” Who doesn’t want to feel like they’re a part of their favorite television series or video games? Rather than listening to an unrealistic or “flattened” sound, 3D audio offers an audible reality that your ears can indulge in with satisfaction. What Is 3D Audio? Three-dimensional audio provides an exciting sound experience that projects noise from all directions as opposed to just one focal point. You can hear sound effects from the left, right, above you and underneath you. Your surroundings radically transform into a more immersive experience. Take video games, for instance. Imagine you’re navigating a first-person point-of-view mission as your character ventures throughout mountainous terrains to reach the next destination. However, it’s nighttime and you must rely on sounds to get to your next checkpoint. You hear a footstep and know your quarry is approaching. Rather than blindly running in the dark, 3D audio allows you to hear the direction the sound is coming from as if you are the character in the game. A Brief History of 3D Audio Sound... --- ### Why Can Humans Only Hear Between 20 Hz and 20kHz? > Ears are complex organs that all us to retain & transmit vibrations into noises our brain comprehends. Learn why humans can only hear between 20 Hz and 20kHz! - Published: 2018-07-20 - Modified: 2025-01-24 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/can-humans-hear-20-hz-20khz/ If you’ve ever used a dog whistle before, you may have blown into the device with no sound produced at all. Except you did make a noise — it was just at a frequency level indistinguishable to the human ear. Your four-legged friend, however, likely perked up his ears the moment you blew into this seemingly unintelligible whistle. While dogs and our other furry companions can hear frequencies reaching up to 80kHZ, we can only distinguish noises between 20 Hz and 20kHz. If that number seems low in comparison, don't feel discouraged. Our ears are incredibly complex organs that provide us with the ability to retain and transmit vibrations into noises our brain comprehends and attaches a meaning to with ease. Pretty amazing, isn't it? How the Structure of Our Ear Impacts the Sound Range We Hear Because ears are a part of our human body, it's no wonder they're so seemingly complicated. To make matters even more intricate, we have not one, but two, of these magical little organs. To better understand the range of human hearing, it's essential to first understand the structure that makes our ears into the hearing devices we rely on daily. The outer part of the ear consists of two different portions: the ear canal and the skin and cartilage that we can visibly see when we look at our ears. These parts of the ear are responsible for transferring external noises into our body. The eardrum picks up vibrations and sends them to... --- ### Understanding the Various Sound Ratings > When looking for soundproofing materials, it's crucial to know what type of product you need. Learn about each sound rating to help you pick the right product. - Published: 2018-07-06 - Modified: 2022-09-29 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/understanding-various-sound-ratings/ When you begin to look for soundproofing materials, it's essential to understand what type of product you need. You might know that you want to reduce the level of noise and reverberation produced in your room, office or business, but to what degree does this sound need reduction? Sound ratings help you better understand the acoustical properties and soundproofing level of your room. No two noises are the same, and neither are the rooms in which you hear them. The sound of rustling leaves outside, for instance, will produce a sound rating strikingly different from thunderous sounds that rattle and shake your walls. What Does the STC Rating Mean? The STC rating for walls denotes the sound transmission class of your surroundings. No two walls are quite the same, especially when it comes to their STC rating. To determine your wall's STC rating, you must first understand the guidelines for STC determination. The transmission loss values generated by your wall are compared to the curves designated in the general STC guidelines. Whatever curve your wall matches up with determines your STC rating. A knowledge of this rating grants you a greater understanding of how well your wall reduces airborne noise and sound. As a rule of thumb, larger STC values generally signify better sound control. What Is the IIC Rating? Another important detail of soundproofing materials to familiarize yourself with is the IIC. The IIC refers to the impact insulation class of your product. As the name connotes, this form... --- ### Echo vs. Reverberation > Learn about the differences between echo and reverberation and how to address them. Get started soundproofing your space for echoes and reverberation today! - Published: 2018-06-15 - Modified: 2025-03-31 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/echo-vs-reverberation/ When you find yourself standing in a long hallway and decide to shout out your name, you might just hear your name repeated back in waves. This return of noise is an example of echo. The sound reflects back to the listener as the frequencies bounce off hard objects such as ceilings and walls. The sound of a humming guitar string that continues after plucking is referred to as “reverberation. ” While you might think reverberation is just a fancy way of referencing an echo, it’s not. To find out the difference between reverb and echo, you must first have a general understanding of each sound effect. Table of Contents What Is Reverberation? How an Echo Differs From Reverberation The Difference Between Echo and Reverberation A Common Result of Reflected Noise Soundproofing With Echoes and Reverbs Fulfill Your Soundproofing Needs at Soundproof Cow What Is Reverberation of Sound? Do you ever find yourself singing in the shower and gaining a sense of confidence at your seemingly improving voice? There’s a reason why most people love to sing in the shower: it’s packed with reverberation! It's easy to see how people mistakenly confuse reverbs for echoes. However, reverberation is entirely different. When you sing in the shower, your vocal notes don't ring out in repetition. Instead, your singing produces a more desirable sound because it mingles with the other sounds bouncing off the hard surfaces which surround you. Many musical producers create synthetic or artificial reverbs that they manually add to... --- ### Does the Type of Glass Used in a Window Impact Sound Reduction? > A beautiful window is nice, but a glass window with high acoustical control is better. It's essential to invest in the best glass to control noise pollution. - Published: 2018-06-01 - Modified: 2025-03-31 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/how-to-soundproof-a-window-2/ Windows do more than provide you with a glimpse of the outside world. Choosing the right glass for your windows is essential. From the level of glare you'll receive throughout the day to the sturdiness and durability of your piece, it's vital always to know the specs and details of your windowpanes before you purchase them. One especially important feature to keep in mind about your windows is the level of impact sound reduction they create. A beautiful windowpane is nice, but a glass window with high acoustical control is even better. Because many windows lead outside, it's essential to invest in the best glass for reducing sound to control the level of noise pollution that seeps into your room throughout the day. Laminated vs. Tempered Glass When it comes to windows, no two glasses are the same. Take laminated glass, for instance. Manufacturers engineer laminated glass especially with soundproofing qualities in mind. If you find your home or business suffering from unwanted vibrations and sounds that enter through your windows, laminated glass will provide you with the sound deadening properties you need. This is because laminated glass consists of an extra protective layer of plastic that provides an additional barrier between the two external glass sheets. Tempered glass, on the other hand, does not offer quite as much soundproofing control. This form of glass is crafted with durability in mind, as the strong and sturdy external layers provide a resilient glass that can withstand use and force with robust... --- ### What is Sonic Art? > In this artistic discipline, sound is used as the primary medium. It expands your senses past just visual pieces to incorporate auditory experiences. - Published: 2018-04-05 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/what-is-sonic-art/ What do the United States, France, Germany and China all have in common? They’re hosts to sound art shows. Sonic art, or the creation of visual art using sound waves and vibrations, is a growing area of interest for artists and viewers. If you’re asking, “What is sound art? ” keep reading to learn more about it and some of its notable artists. History of Sound Art Sound wave art has been around for more than 40 years but was far from mainstream at its start. During the 1970s, only 21 sound art shows were held worldwide, compared to during the early 2000s when 128 exhibits were available to see between 2000 and 2009. One of the reasons sonic art isn’t as popular as traditional art forms is because it’s a challenging, non-visual medium. Many sound artists, however, use visual elements in their artwork. Carsten Nicolai, for example, used neon lights and water to show sound, as the sound waves altered the lights’ reflection in the water. What’s the reason for sound art’s growth though? Technology. Future of Sonic Art Sound-recording innovations are making it easier for artists to try their hand, or rather their ear, at sonic art. Plus, this recording gear can be used at home, instead of at a recording studio. New technologies that sound artists are using include: Multichannel audio systems Computer-programming software Computer-mediated sound spatialization Sound absorption material is another invention that’s made it easier for artists to practice their craft. It allows them to... --- ### Why Certain Sounds Lull You to Sleep > Have you ever gotten sleepy after hearing the sound of raindrops on your roof? Well, there is a science behind it! Learn how certain sounds can make you sleepy. - Published: 2018-03-05 - Modified: 2024-12-12 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/certain-sounds-lull-sleep/ You’re cozied up in bed, drifting off and it begins to rain. How do you react? If you’re like the rest of the herd, you probably shrug it off. But, if your phone goes off, your reaction is likely the exact opposite. These different responses are the basis of a study completed by a Pennsylvania State University professor, who’s discovered why certain sounds lull us to sleep and others perk us up. The Science Behind Sounds for Sleeping Non-threatening and threatening — that’s how Penn State professor Orfeu Buxton categorized noise during his study on sounds for sleeping. Biologically, our brains are programmed to wake us when we hear abrupt, threatening sounds. Buxton’s study, for example, found an alarm played at 40 decibels, which is comparable to a whisper, woke 90 percent of participants if they were lightly sleeping, while those in a deep sleep woke up around 50 percent of the time. Constant sounds, like traffic, didn’t wake participants at the same rate, even when reaching 70 decibels, which is about the volume of shouting. Why? Because the sounds were constant and consistent, even if their noise level varied, instead of jarring like the alarm Buxton and his team played. To your brain, constant sounds are non-threatening, while sudden sounds are threatening. And it makes sense. If you always reacted to constant noises, like the hum of your refrigerator, how could you focus on anything else? Abrupt sounds often prove themselves as worthy of attention as well. Understanding the... --- ### Top 10 Noisiest Cities in the World to Live > Some places, believe it are not, are much worse than others when it comes to city noise. Here then, are the noisiest cities in the world! - Published: 2018-02-21 - Modified: 2025-03-14 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/top-10-loudest-cities-world-live/ What are the loudest cities in the world? If you live in a big city, you probably think yours should make the list of the world’s loudest cities. Anyone who lives in a city knows they can be loud places to live — between the traffic, construction and people bustling about, noise pollution is almost always a harsh reality. But some places, believe it are not, are much worse than others when it comes to city noise. Here then, are the noisiest cities in the world. 1. Karachi, Pakistan With 15 million residents, it’s not surprising that this Pakistan city is one of the world’s loudest cities. Much of the noise can be attributed to Karachi’s traffic, which regularly produces sound in the neighborhood of 90 decibels — well above the healthy range for hearing sound. 2. Shanghai, China Shanghai traffic only gets up to about 71 decibels, but overall noise can reach 85 decibels or higher. With a massive 24 million people in the city, along with the Chinese affinity for firecrackers, it’s not surprising that noise pollution is such a problem. 3. Buenos Aires, Argentina Buenos Aires makes the list largely due to its economy, which is largely centered around motor vehicle construction, and which involves extremely loud metalwork. Many areas in the city routinely crack the 85-decibel mark. 4. New York, New York A city with over eight million residents and over 50 million tourists a year is bound to be loud! While New York City’s decibel... --- ### Soundproofing for Tinnitus > Whether ringing from tinnitus is short-lived or lasts for months, millions of individuals suffer from tinnitus. Learn how soundproofing can reduce tinnitus! - Published: 2018-02-16 - Modified: 2022-09-30 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/soundproofing-for-tinnitus/ One in every ten people experiences some form of tinnitus during their lifetime. Whether this ringing is short-lived or lasts for months on end, tinnitus is a tedious effect millions of individuals suffer from. Luckily, you can reduce the severity of your tinnitus through soundproofing materials that help control the austerity of your sound reception. Tinnitus soundproofing permits those who struggle with unwanted ringing ears to discover a sense of relaxation by reducing the amount of vibration and sound that leaks through their doors and walls daily. What Is Tinnitus? Tinnitus is a condition which causes an individual to hear a ringing noise even when no external source is causing the sound. If you often find yourself with ringing ears even when those around you hear silence, you may be suffering from the symptoms of tinnitus. While not exactly a condition or a disease, tinnitus can create discomfort nevertheless. Symptoms range from low-frequency ringing to loud buzzing sounds. Although these noises are loud and bothersome for the individual suffering with tinnitus, they are relative to the individual who perceives them. That means even though they hear high-pitched sounds, those around them do not. What Causes Tinnitus? There are a variety of underlying causes that can contribute to the formation of tinnitus, which makes it difficult to pinpoint the exact cause or trigger that adds to these symptoms. Currently, doctors are unable to make a direct connection between tinnitus and other pre-existing conditions. One factor that does appear to stimulate ringing... --- ### The Relationship Between Music and Memory > Studies have shown that music-related memory is a far stronger effect that can help Alzheimer’s and dementia sufferers. Visit to learn more! - Published: 2018-02-02 - Modified: 2023-09-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/relationship-music-memory/ How does music affect memory? We’ve probably all experienced the phenomenon where an old song reminds us of a time in our lives or even evokes a specific memory. Most people may not give this a second thought. It may seem as sensible as having an old toy from your childhood evoke a memory. However, studies have shown that music-related memory is a far stronger effect, and that there’s a serious link between music, emotion and memory — one that can actually be used to help Alzheimer’s and dementia sufferers. So how does music affect memory, and how can we use this knowledge to help others? The Biological Music-Memory Connection Neurological research has shown the medial prefrontal cortex region of the brain is a hub that connects music, emotion and memories. This is also the area we use to retrieve memories of the past in general. A fascinating discovery scientists have made is that this same area of the brain is one of the longest-surviving areas when it comes to Alzheimer’s and dementia, giving us a clue as to a way to combat the symptoms of these syndromes. How the Science of Music Can Help Alzheimer’s Sufferers This discovery has made a way to treat Alzheimer’s sufferers obvious. With the help of their friends, loved ones and the patient him or herself, treatment professionals are creating MP3 playlists for those with Alzheimer's. The idea is to find songs from the individual’s past that connect directly with important memories like the... --- ### On Trend: All You Need to Know About Sound Therapy > Learn about the benefits of sound therapy and how it can enhance your well-being. Find out why it's gaining popularity now! - Published: 2018-01-30 - Modified: 2023-11-14 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/trend-need-know-sound-therapy/ Sound — we’ve all used it as a form of therapy. Whether it’s to relax after a hectic workday, groove during your morning run or howl out after stubbing your toe, sound has always served as a form of expression. Now, it’s becoming a new phenomenon as people are using the vibration of their voices and objects to ease discomfort. Get on trend and learn all you need to know about sound therapy below. How Does Sound Therapy Work? Sound therapy is similar to meditation. Just as you monitor and control your breathing with meditation, you regulate the frequency and rhythm of noise in sound therapy. But, how does that alleviate pain? Noises create shifts in our brainwaves through entrainment, which is when your brain synchronizes its waves to an external stimuli’s rhythm of frequency. Aligning your brainwaves to a certain frequency can cause a physiological reaction. Physiological reactions are often stress-related, such as an increased heart rate. With sound therapy, your body’s physiological response is positive. You release nitric oxide, a molecule responsible for expanding blood vessels, increasing blood flow and influencing pain signals. The key to sound therapy relaxation is calming your mind and body, which allows entrainment to occur. Many people opt to lay down and close their eyes, for example, during a session. A less natural approach to sound therapy is ultrasounds, which also create vibrations and are used for treatment on occasion. Sound therapy, however, is a more natural approach that doesn’t require a visit... --- ### Soundproofing Solutions for Those With Misophonia > We all have sounds we find extremely irritating, but for sufferers of Misophonia, the problem is much worse. Learn how soundproofing can help! - Published: 2018-01-19 - Modified: 2023-06-22 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/soundproofing-solutions-misophonia/ We all have sounds we find extremely irritating, like nails on a chalkboard or extremely loud chewing. But for sufferers of Misophonia, the problem is much worse. In these individuals, ordinary sounds that other people might find only mildly irritating or not notice at all — like chewing, pen clicking, slurping and the like — can produce massively negative reactions. How Does Misophonia Affect People? In most misophonia suffers, the reaction is that fight or flight response that most people have to danger. Anxiety rises, adrenaline starts pumping, sweating becomes more profuse and the person must leave the situation at all costs, not dissimilar to panic attack. As you can imagine, this condition makes daily life extremely difficult for sufferers. Research on how to deal with misophonia has yielded few solutions so far. Usually, the people closest to the sufferer elicit the worst reactions, so one thing that’s important for loved ones to do is remove themselves from situations where they might subject the sufferer to these sounds, even if it means things like eating or sleeping in a separate room. Exhorting the sufferer to “just deal with it” or “get over it” is not effective. Another very useful weapon in the fight against misophonia is misophonia soundproofing. Because people with misophonia have so much difficulty in the outside world due to sound sensitivity, it’s very important that they have a safe space in their own home. For the sake of their sanity, these individuals need to know there’s a... --- ### What Is Vibration Therapy? > Vibration therapy uses vibrations created from sound to treat pain, muscle stiffness and other conditions, as well as help your body heal after an injury. - Published: 2018-01-15 - Modified: 2025-04-29 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/what-is-vibration-therapy/ Vibration therapy uses sound vibrations to treat pain, muscle stiffness and other conditions, as well as help your body heal after an injury, like a broken bone. How does vibration therapy work, and how effective is it? We have the answers to your questions, and much more, below. How Vibration Therapy Works How do vibrations affect your body, bones and muscles? Vibrations cause your muscles to contract and relax. They also spur bones to produce osteoblasts, which are the cells responsible for building your bones. Physicians use two types of vibration therapy: Whole body: Whole-body vibration therapy encompasses your entire body. During this kind of treatment, you’ll stand, sit or lay down on a machine that rests on a platform. This platform vibrates, sending sound waves throughout your body and causing your muscles to contract and relax. Localized: Instead of a platform, a hand-held device is used for localized vibration therapy. Like whole-body vibration therapy, you may sit, stand or lay down depending on the area you’re treating. For example, if your calf or thigh muscles are being treated, your doctor may have you lay down and then turn on the device. Platforms and hand-held tools for vibration therapy vary in the types of waves they produce. Platforms, for instance, may only produce vertical vibrations, while a portable device may create horizontal and vertical sound waves to reach your muscles. Doctors can even customize the frequency and intensity of vibrations depending on your condition. Who Vibration Therapy Helps People with... --- ### How Sound Affects Animals > We know noise can negatively affect humans, but can sound harm animals? Learn more about the relationship between sound and animals. - Published: 2018-01-05 - Modified: 2022-11-17 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/sound-affects-animals/ We know noise can negatively affect humans, but can sound harm animals? Pet owners know how sounds, such as thunder during a storm, can affect their pets. It’s more than natural noises that affect animals though. Science now shows that in addition to humans, noise pollution also influences animals. Find out more about how animals are responding to sound below. How Marine Animals React to Sound Noise pollution studies on animals have concentrated on marine animals, such as whales and dolphins. What researchers have found is that human-induced noises are impacting how these social creatures communicate with one another and their group behavior. Non-natural noises that affect animals residing in the deep blue sea include: Oil drilling Seismic surveys Ship traffic Military sonar North Atlantic right whales, which are endangered, are significantly impacted by ship traffic because they favor coastal waters along Georgia and Florida, which have high levels of shipping traffic. Studies show these whales’ foraging and vocal behavior, as well as that of dolphins and porpoises, are affected by boat noise. Military sonar also affects beaked whales, causing mass strandings. In fact, every multi-species beaked-whale mass stranding has happened in coordination with naval sonar exercises. Scientists believe the sonar affects the dive patterns of these whales, resulting in them coming ashore and dying. Hearing loss is another symptom that researchers believe results from human-induced noises. In half of all stranded dolphin cases in the U. S. , hearing loss was a factor. As demonstrated in the above research,... --- ### The Colors of Noise > From white and brown noise to blue and pink noise, discover the different colors of noise and what they each mean. - Published: 2018-01-05 - Modified: 2024-12-12 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/colors-of-noise/ When we think of noise, we usually think of the sounds noises make — honking, shrieking, purring, melodious, rhythmic, etc. You probably rarely find yourself talking about the colors of noise. After all, you can’t see sound, so how can it have colors? The idea of the colors of noise uses the idea of color to describe certain frequencies of noise, starting with white noise, which most people understand is a blanket of sound that drowns out other sound, in the same way white light combines and therefore drowns out all other colors of light. So, what are the colors of noise? What Is White Noise? True white noise is a mixture of all the frequencies humans can hear, from about 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz, all going at equal strength at the same time. The result is a sound like the static from an old television or radio when nothing is broadcasting. Because it covers all frequencies, white noise tends to make any other sounds in its path disappear. If your goal is simply to drown out an annoying sound, white noise will do the trick. What Is Pink Noise? Colors besides white noise are like white noise but with more energy at one end of the sound spectrum or the other. If you use a “white noise” machine, you’re probably really listening to pink noise, as this type of noise serves the same purpose of drowning out all other sounds, but is less harsh than white noise. It... --- ### Soundproofing a Door > Unfortunately sound doesn't knock before it enters, which makes getting some much-needed rest difficult. Read on to learn how to soundproof a door. - Published: 2017-12-30 - Modified: 2023-07-21 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/soundproofing-a-door/ If sound knocked before it entered, you wouldn’t have to soundproof your door. But, it doesn’t, which makes getting some much-needed rest difficult when your roommates, kids or pets are anything but quiet. Soundproofing your door won’t silence them, but it will stop sound in its tracks. Learn how to soundproof a door below to get started on your quiet oasis. 1. Install a Door Sweep Cat owners are well-informed about the space between their door and the floor, as demonstrated by their cat’s paws darting in and out of your door’s threshold. Just as your cat can slip their paw underneath your door, sound can also dart under. Door sweeps reduce noise transfer. Vinyl and foam door sweeps are available, but they aren’t going to last against a kitty’s claws. That’s why our aluminum, silicone seals are a more appropriate choice, plus silicone is a flexible material so it won’t wear out due to temperature changes. Installing a door sweep is a simple process: Measure and cut the sweep to the designated size. Align the sweep to your door. Drill pilot holes. Screw the sweep to your door. Help from your herd of roommates or family is recommended, as it makes your job a bit easier. Shop Door Seals & Sweeps 2. Use a Perimeter Seal Soundproof doors often feature a door sweep and perimeter seal. Why use both? The two secure your door’s perimeters since a door sweep only prevents noise transfer at the threshold — not the... --- ### The Quietest Places on Earth > Sometimes, all you want is a quiet place to relax. Luckily, there’s plenty of places to go for fresh air, silence and peace of mind. - Published: 2017-12-15 - Modified: 2022-09-30 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/quietest-places-earth/ Sometimes, all you want is a quiet place to relax. Luckily, there’s plenty of places to go for fresh air, silence and peace of mind. From deserts, national reserves and human-made rooms, silent spots can be found everywhere in the world. Check out our list of the seven quietest, most relaxing places on Earth below: 1. Anechoic Chamber, Minn. Named the quietest place in the world, this anechoic chamber in Minnesota is 99. 9% sound-absorbent. While quiet, it may not be relaxing or comforting with its layers of concrete and steel, and due to the fact that no one has spent more than 45 minutes in the room. If you do visit this quiet place, you’ll notice just how much you can hear in the silence, such as your heart, stomach and lungs. In fact, the chamber’s lack of sound is comparable to space, which is why NASA sends their astronauts here to prepare for space’s silent treatment. 2. Kelso Dunes, Calif. Want to travel to Egypt to see the Great Sand Sea, but it’s just too crowded? The Mojave Desert in the U. S. has the next best thing — the Kelso Sand Dunes. These dunes are often compared to Egypt’s Great Sand Sea, but without the noise. While often windy, the dunes do offer a relaxing place away from civilization and industrial noise. If you stay into the evening, the wind usually dies down and gives you some quiet underneath the nighttime sky. You may even see a... --- ### Common Soundproofing Mistakes and How to Fix Them > Costly soundproofing mistakes could hurt your wallet without solving the issue.

Have you ever wondered how sound works, though? - Published: 2017-11-15 - Modified: 2023-08-28 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/the-science-of-sound/ We hear sounds every day, from the cows mooing in a pasture to the hum of cars sitting in traffic. Have you ever wondered how sound works, though? How it travels to you and how your brain makes sense of it? We’re talking about acoustics — the science of sound. How Sound Waves Travel Sound moves in waves, but what creates those waves? Vibrations. When you speak, sing or shout, your vocal cords vibrate and create waves when they meet what’s called an elastic medium. Air, for example, is an elastic medium. Other sound mediums include: Metal Wood Stone Glass Water A helpful way to picture the movement of sound waves is like the ripples on water. When you toss a rock into the water, it creates ripples that travel throughout the pond or lake. A similar effect happens with sound. The vibrations pass through air particles, creating a ripple effect as they travel from particle to particle. The rate of these ripples would be called a hertz, which measures the frequency of sound waves. The same effect happens when sound vibrations move through other mediums a wooden door or a sheet of metal. In some cases, depending on the intensity of the vibrations, the sound waves can cause a piece of glass to shatter, or even damage our eardrums. How Sound Vibrations Become Noise Sound vibrations become noise because our ears can detect changes in pressure. When those sound waves are moving through air particles, for example, your ears... --- ### How Proper Furniture Placement Can Reduce Sound > Learning how to reduce sound with proper furniture placement can make a hug difference in a house or apartment. Visit Soundproof Cow to find out more! - Published: 2017-10-20 - Modified: 2024-02-14 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/proper-furniture-placement-can-reduce-sound/ Proper soundproofing can make a huge difference in an apartment or home. If your bedroom is adjacent to your child’s room, or your study is adjacent to the living room, good soundproofing can be critical in helping you relax and focus. If you’re looking for easy ways to soundproof a room or apartment, you may wish to purchase soundproofing panels or other products from Soundproof Cow. However, if you’re looking for other economical ideas for how to reduce noise between rooms, there are many options. For example, furniture placement can significantly reduce sound transmission from one room to the next. Here are some tips on how to reduce sound just by changing up your furniture. Best Furniture for Soundproofing The best furniture for dampening sound is upholstered furniture. Chairs and sofas that are upholstered in plush fabrics like suede, microfiber, chenille or corduroy can all do wonders for sound absorption. You can add textured throw pillows to your chair or sofa for even more of a soundproofing buffer. Thick curtains also do a great job of soundproofing a room, especially when you have a lot of unwanted sound coming in through the windows. Tapestries on your walls can enhance your décor as well as block sound. Where to Put Your Soundproofing Furniture Naturally, you’ll want to place your soundproofing furniture as close to the offending sound penetration as possible. If most of your unwanted sound is coming through a shared wall, the more soundproofing furniture you can put up against... --- ### Why Sound in Movies Is So Powerful > When you think about the movie “Jaws,” what comes to mind first? Learn why sound effects and movie music have such a powerful effect. - Published: 2017-10-05 - Modified: 2023-03-16 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/why-sound-in-movies-is-so-powerful/ When you think about the movie “Jaws,” what comes to mind first? One of the most popular answers is that unmistakable sound — dun dun, dun dun. While only some movie scores become a part of pop culture, as is the case for “Jaws,” all film scores create an ambiance and atmosphere that draws you into the story and creates an immersive experience. How Sound in Movies Affect Us Sound fills your day-to-day life. You hear the birds, the traffic and maybe even the cows if you’re lucky. Noise not only immerses you in your daily life, but also alerts you. Take driving, for example. Beeping your horn may tell another driver to move back into their lane or that the stoplight changed to green. Films use sound in the same way. “Jaws” relied on its movie music to show that the massive great white shark was in the area and on the prowl. “The Terminator” franchise alerts audiences to similar danger with the da-dum, dum, da-dum sound from its soundtrack. Now, imagine those films without those sounds. It’s quiet — lackluster. We don’t have the same build-up to Jaws coming out of the water or the Terminator bursting into a room as we do with the soundtrack. Without their signature music, the films even lose a bit of their character and fame. Even simple sound effects, like when a lightsaber ignites in “Star Wars” or the warp drive engages in “Star Trek,” add to the movie and immerse you... --- ### Why We Lose Our Hearing > Learn about the causes of hearing loss and what can be done to prevent them. - Published: 2017-09-27 - Modified: 2023-07-21 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/why-we-lose-our-hearing/ What’s one of the most common health concerns in the United States? You may be surprised to learn it’s hearing loss. Around 48 million people in the country — that’s 20% of the population — have trouble hearing. So, what causes our loss of hearing, and can we prevent it? How We Hear To understand why we lose our hearing and how to prevent hearing loss, we need to understand how our hearing works. The process has several steps: Sound waves: The sounds around us consist of sound waves, which go into our outer ear. From there, they travel through the ear canal. Eardrum: The eardrum at the end of the ear canal starts to vibrate because of the sound waves. These vibrations get sent to the stapes, malleus and incus, which are bones in the middle ear. Inner ear: The stapes, malleus and incus magnify the vibrations, so they can reach the cochlea in the inner ear. The cochlea is filled with fluid and the vibrations make this fluid move, creating a wave. Different hair cells near the cochlea can detect different pitches of sound. The brain: The hair cells move, eventually causing chemicals to enter the cells. This movement creates electrical signals, which the auditory nerves carry to the brain. The brain then interprets the electrical signals. Causes of Hearing Loss Hearing loss happens for multiple reasons. In fact, five categories of hearing loss exist: Inherited: More than 400 genetic diseases, like Stickler syndrome, can cause hearing loss.... --- ### The Speed of Sound - How Fast Sound Travels In Different Materials > Learn about the speed of sound through different mediums or materials - Elastic Properties, Air Density, and Temperature - today. - Published: 2017-09-22 - Modified: 2024-04-19 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/sound-travels-different-materials/ You probably remember from your science classes in school that the speed of sound is a constant. However, that constant speed is not necessarily the speed at which the sound reaches you. The material which sound is transferred through must be taken into consideration. For example, how does density affect the speed of sound? Since sound waves involve the transfer of kinetic energy between adjacent molecules, the closer those molecules are to each other, the faster the sound travels. Therefore, sound travels much faster through solids than through liquids or gas. When understanding the speed of sound through different mediums or materials, there are several factors to consider besides density. 1. Elastic Properties Elastic properties are the properties of a material that allow it to maintain its shape when you apply force to it. Materials with higher elastic properties return to their normal shape faster, making it easier for sound to travel through them. That’s why sound travels much faster through lead, for example, than rubber, which has very low elastic properties. 2. Air Density Just as solid objects allow sound to travel faster than less dense ones, the density of gasses affect how quickly sound travels, as well. For example, sound will travel faster in hydrogen than regular air because it is a much denser gas. You’d expect sound to travel faster in colder air than hotter air, because colder air is denser. However, this isn’t the case, for the reason stated below. 3. Temperature Why does sound travel... --- ### How Soundproofing Benefits Auditory Learners > People learn in different ways, & teachers may employ different instructing styles. Sometimes overlooked are the benefits of auditory learning. Learn more! - Published: 2017-08-24 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/benefits-auditory-learning/ People learn in different ways. Some people learn by doing, others learn by seeing and a unique few learn by listening. Teachers may employ different lessons to engage these varied learning styles, but most overlook a simple solution for auditory learners — soundproofing. Here, we'll outline some basic insight into the different learning styles, as well as the best soundproofing tools that can benefit auditory learners in their academic or at-home environment. What Is Auditory Learning? As you may have guessed, the definition of aural learning is the act of learning by hearing or listening. Auditory learners don't have to read an infographic or watch an instructional video to learn new material. Instead, they can listen to e-books, hear recorded lectures or figure things out through discussion. How Does Auditory Learning Impact the Learner? Auditory learners benefit from the fact that it's highly unlikely they'll be in a situation where there is no auditory stimulus. Most videos and lectures have a speaking component. After all, it's not often an instructor hands their students a piece of written content and says, "There you go, figure it out. " Another big advantage auditory learners have is that those who are skilled enough tend to retain information more effectively than those of other learning types. Those with other learning types may hear information and have it, as they say, "Go in one ear and out the other," without realizing it. Comparatively, auditory learners are better at holding on to the information they hear.... --- ### How to Solve Noise Pollution > Noise pollution is a societal hazard that is common in urban environments and can cause long term issues for people. Visit to learn more today! - Published: 2017-08-11 - Modified: 2025-05-28 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/effects-noise-pollution/ People pay attention to other types of pollutions — like the notable effects of air and environmental pollution — but the dangers associated with noise pollution are often overlooked. The effects of noise pollution can be quite harmful, and it's important to consider ways to reduce these effects. Here, we'll outline important noise pollution facts, as well as some ideas on how you can control noise pollution in your environment. What Is Noise Pollution? Life is inevitably noisy. Listening to the sounds of birds chirping and pleasant chatter makes life more enjoyable — but unwanted and intrusive sounds have the opposite effect. Noise pollution is an excess of unpleasant sounds. They interfere with daily functioning, such as sleeping, conversing or the ability to concentrate on hobbies or work. Unfortunately, some of these sounds are unavoidable, especially for those living in an urban environment. But, there are ways you can limit the effects of noise pollution and take back control of your daily routine. What Are Some Common Causes of Noise Pollution? One person's desirable sound can be another person's noise. For example, your neighbor may feel like a rockstar as he bangs his drumsticks on his drumset, but his less-than-palatable music only serves as a disruption to your movie night or studying. Other common causes of noise pollution include: Traffic from nearby roads Air traffic Construction zones Pets and wildlife Music Basically, if a noise interferes with your daily routine, it's considered noise pollution. How Do These Noise Pollutants Affect... --- ### Aircraft Soundproofing > Whether you or someone you know has a small plane, or you’re curious about how pilots & flight crew can protect themselves against sound, visit to learn more! - Published: 2017-07-07 - Modified: 2025-01-31 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/aircraft-soundproofing/ Aircraft soundproofing is probably not something you think a lot about, especially if you’re not a frequent traveler. However, think for a moment about how clogged your ears feel when you leave an airplane. You’ll probably find it takes a few hours for you to be able to hear at the same volume you did before you left. Now, imagine what the pilot and crew, who fly constantly and for many hours, go through, and you should get an idea of why soundproofing for aircraft is so important. Whether you or someone you know has a small plane of their own that’s unreasonably loud, or you’re just curious about how pilots and flight crew can protect themselves against excesses of sound that may occur in airplane cabins, read on. What Types of Noise Do You Hear on an Airplane? Obviously, the noise you hear from an airplane are the sounds made by the aircraft itself. But where do those sounds come from? There are four main sources of aircraft sound. The first is the propellers. These blades whirl around at extremely high speeds, generating a significant amount of noise as they do. The next is aerodynamic noise. This is sort of like road noise when you’re driving. It’s things like noise from turbulence, leaks and slipstream. Then of course, there’s the engine exhaust — the sound of the engine pushing exhaust through the plane and, finally, there’s your standard engine vibration.

And would you really enjoy spending time in the quietest room in the world? Find out! - Published: 2017-06-16 - Modified: 2024-02-14 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/quietest-room-on-earth/ We all crave a place that we can go for a little peace and quiet. But how would you like to spend time in the quietest room on earth? Does a “world’s quietest room” even exist? Where is it? And would you really enjoy spending time in the quietest room in the world? Read on! Where to Find the World’s Quietest Room The World’s quietest room does indeed exist. It is located in Redmond, Washington, and it was built by Microsoft in Building 87 on its campus. There are actually three “anechoic” chambers in the building, all designed to completely absorb any ambient sound. The Guinness Book of World Records has confirmed that these chambers meet the standard of “World’s Quietest Room. ” How the World’s Quietest Room Works The entire room is built using sound-absorbent wedges. These wedges cover the room from wall to wall and floor to ceiling. They’re not pretty, but they get the job done. But that’s not all. The room is also completely isolated from its surroundings. There’s an air gap between the room and the adjacent walls, so no sound from other rooms can leak in. The room is also on springs, so the floor has no contact with the ground through which sound might travel into the room. Why Make a World’s Quietest Room? The quietest room on earth wasn’t built just to break a record — there’s actually a technical purpose. Microsoft uses the room for things like determining the sounds that... --- ### The Loudest Sports Stadiums in the World > Here's a look at the five loudest sports stadiums in the world, and just how loud they have gotten! - Published: 2017-05-19 - Modified: 2023-03-16 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/loudest-sports-stadiums-world/ If you’ve been to a sports stadium, you know they can get loud. Part of the fun of going to a sporting event is seeing how loud you can get in support of your team. Many stadiums are famous for their loud fans, such as Seattle’s famous “12th Man. ” But what are the world’s loudest sports stadiums, and how loud have the loudest sports venues gotten? If you’ve been curious about the world’s loudest sports venues, here’s a look at the five loudest sports stadiums, and just how loud they’ve gotten. 5. Autzen Stadium, Oregon If there’s any sport that corners the market on loud fans, it’s college football. Football tends to have the biggest stadiums with the most people, and college students tend to be the most energetic, passionate fans of their teams. The combination is often explosive when it comes to noise. This was certainly true of Autzen Stadium in Oregon — home of the Oregon Ducks — whose fans make a little go a long way. With a relatively modest seating capacity of 54,000, this little stadium that could managed to hit the 127-decibel mark in 2007, which is louder than your typical rock concert. 4. Memorial Stadium, South Carolina The home of the Clemson Tigers is called Death Valley for good reason. The fan presence is death to Clemson’s opponents. That fan base managed to crack 132. 8 decibels back in 2007. They took a shot at the Guinness Book of World Records as the... --- ### How to Soundproof a Window > Reduce the noise coming into your home or business by soundproofing your windows.

Learn more! - Published: 2017-04-21 - Modified: 2024-10-31 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/benefits-white-noise/ You may have heard about the benefits of white noise for a variety of situations. White noise benefits have been highly praised by health professionals as a way to reduce anxiety, increase focus and generally promote well-being. If you’ve been curious about white noise, here’s a breakdown of what white noise is and some of the areas where it can be extremely useful. What Is White Noise? First, it’s important to understand white noise and why it’s so much more calming than other kinds of noise. Essentially, the sounds you hear every day are on all kinds of different frequencies, mingling and bouncing against each other and putting stress on your ear as your auditory system tries to process them all. White noise generators create sound at all frequencies at once, the way white light represents all frequencies of light. While there are some variations on white noise, this is the general idea. Essentially, white noise-type machines create a blanket of sound that lays over the existing sounds, creating a calming, consistent, focused sound that’s pleasing to the ear and can cover other, less pleasant sounds. White Noise Benefits for Sleeping One of the most popular uses of white noise is for sleeping. White noise is effective for sleeping for a number of reasons. For starters, it literally distracts the brain. A completely quiet room may cause the potential listener to stay alert, listening for any trace of sound. The sound of white noise gives the mind something to focus... --- ### How Audio Therapy Helps Veterans With PTSD > Although audio therapy for veterans may not work for everyone, it can be a strong alternative when other methods have not worked. Visit to learn more! - Published: 2017-04-04 - Modified: 2025-01-31 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/audio-therapy-helps-veterans-ptsd/ Do you know someone who suffers from PTSD? For veterans with PTSD, there may be new hope. New studies are showing that audio therapy for veterans with PTSD can be highly effective. If you know a veteran who struggles with PTSD and has not been helped enough by traditional treatment methods, PTSD audio therapy for veterans may be the answer. Although audio therapy for veterans may not work for everyone, it can be a strong alternative when other methods have not worked, or as a complement to other methods of treatment. What Is PTSD? PTSD, or Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, is a syndrome commonly experienced by veterans and others who have experienced extreme trauma, such as the type that’s likely to occur on the battlefield. Soldiers who have experienced the brutal wartime deaths of their fellow combatants, or narrowly escaped death themselves, or even those who have seen other horrors of war, routinely return home reporting night sweats, hallucinations, anxiety and terror, as they continue to relive the horrors that traumatized them in the field. PTSD sufferers may turn to alcoholism, violence or even self-harm, so finding proper treatment is crucial. How Does Audio Therapy for Veterans Work to Help Them Deal With PTSD? The new, exciting PTSD audio therapy treatment for veterans is called the Bio-Acoustical Utilization Device, or BAUD. It’s a simple device that sufferers plug a headset into and listen to for 20 minutes as they think about the trauma that plagues them. The intention of the device... --- ### Sound and Vibration Control for Bars, Restaurants and Nightclubs > Soundproof Cow has effective, affordable solutions for your bar, restaurant or nightclub sound control needs. - Published: 2017-03-24 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/superior-sound-vibration-control/ One of the most important issues when it comes to successful nightclubs and restaurants is effective sound control. Sadly, this is also an area often neglected by bar, restaurant and nightclub owners. When your nightclub is in full swing, you want the room to have clean, clear acoustics, not muddled sound and excessive vibration that could irritate your clientele. In your restaurant or bar, you want customers to be able to hear each other and the wait staff — not the conversation four tables over or what’s going on outside.

Learn the best way to control sound in natatoriums! - Published: 2017-03-10 - Modified: 2024-12-09 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/sound-control-indoor-pools/ There’s a lot to think about when running an indoor swimming pool facility. You need to keep the facility clean, you need to care for the pool itself and the water inside and you need to make sure the facility is safe for visitors — especially children. But one thing people may neglect when caring for an indoor swimming pool facility, however, is the issue of sound control. Why Is Natatorium Sound Control So Important? A natatorium, or indoor pool facility, can be a great place for a variety of reasons. It can be a place where local kids can go to swim safely and a place to get swimming lessons, diving lessons, lifeguard training and even water birthing classes. However, sound control for natatoriums is a constant problem. Indoor pool sound absorption is notoriously poor, because natatoriums are mostly hard surfaces, like tile or block, so any sound created has nowhere to go. Sound from water pumps, splashing water and shouting children bounce around and intermingle, creating a very unpleasant and noisy effect. If you manage a natatorium, you’ll want to address this natatorium sound absorption problem. Not addressing the issue of indoor pool sound control means your visitors will have to deal with that eerie echoing effect, as well as poor acoustics, which can make it difficult to communicate — not to mention the unpleasant water pump sounds. Fortunately, there are some very effective ways to improve sound absorption for natatoriums, making your indoor pool a place to... --- ### Soundproof Cow to be Featured on “Tiny House Nation” on FYI Network  > Soundproof Cow was featured on “Tiny House Nation” on the FYI Network.

Ever wonder which professions are the loudest? Visit to find out. - Published: 2017-02-24 - Modified: 2023-03-16 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/top-ten-noisiest-jobs/ Unless you’re a librarian, you probably encounter some kind of noise at your job. But clearly, some jobs are louder than others. What are the loudest occupations out there and how loud are they? Here’s a breakdown of some of the loudest professions. 10. Nursery School Teacher Whether you have kids or have just been around them, you probably know that kids can be loud. Young children often haven’t learned to regulate their voices yet, so putting 20 or 30 of them in a room together can be rough on the ears. A typical nursery school worker encounters a decibel level of about 85 dB each day. Given that a normal conversation is about 60 dB, you can see how this is one of the noisiest occupations. It’s far from the worst, but prolonged exposure to any high levels of sound for an extended period of time can be damaging. 9. Motorcycle Courier Most people want to cover their ears when they hear a motorcycle drive by, so imagine having to listen to one all day because you’re riding on it. While many motorcycle riders may be accustomed to the sound, the smart ones wear earplugs, as this job produces a sound level of 90 decibels — about the same as a lawnmower. 8. Classical Musician While many people go to attend classical music performances for pleasure, they’re usually seated in the perfect place to enjoy the music safely. The performers, on the other hand, are right in the center... --- ### Three Easy Tricks to Sound Control in Your Gym > Without good fitness center sound control, the loud music and clanking weights can interfere with your clients workout.

People spill in to try to uphold their New Year’s resolutions, and some new members may even stick around for February and beyond. The new crowds alongside your usual members might necessitate a desire to reduce echoes in your facility. Without good fitness center sound control, loud music and clanking weights can interfere with your clients’ workout. If your gym's noise levels make it tough for members to hear their own music through their earbuds, they can't enjoy their workout experience fully. A louder-than-desired exercise environment puts you in danger of losing some of those clients who were planning to come back month after month. Below are some of the common culprits that make gyms noisier than they need to be: Competing music: Do you have a couple of radio stations going on in adjacent rooms? Those songs might sound great, but several stations in proximity to each other, playing different songs, make it hard to practice noise control. Group classes: When people work out together, they tend to make noise. Your cardio instructors may have to speak loudly to be heard. Clanging weights and equipment: Many pieces of gym equipment are made of metal. Is it any wonder that everything from free weights to Nautilus-style machines produces constant noise? Loud machinery: Treadmills, ellipticals and stationary bikes all make a sound when they're turned on. If you have a lot of equipment, you're bound to need a gym noise reduction system.... --- ### Soundproofing Solutions for Coffee Shops > A loud coffee shop can be distracting and detrimental to the relaxation of customers.

Don't let poor sound ruin your customer's experience. Soundproof your brewery today. - Published: 2016-10-04 - Modified: 2020-08-31 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/breweries/ Friends out for a night on the town are looking to socialize while they enjoy a few drinks. Making that connection is a little harder when people have to shout in order to be heard from across the table. If you have recently visited a brewery, bar, or crowded restaurant this may be a familiar scenario. Many owners of these establishments struggle with noise level issues and the impact it has on their customers. When remodeling or building out a space, soundproofing is all too often an afterthought. Newer interior designs often feature hard, sleek and industrial surfaces, open floor plans and very few materials that are effective at absorbing sound. Sounds bounce off walls, ceilings and floors, making unwanted background noise and muffling voices. With very little to absorb background noise, the loud atmosphere can make it hard for customers to have an enjoyable experience. Noise levels in crowded establishments can register decibel levels that range between city traffic and power saws – much too loud to tolerate. Brewery owners invest a lot of time and money in crafting the perfect beverage menu, building a great staff and creating a cool factor to attract customers. It would be a shame if those customers avoided or didn’t return to that establishment because it was too noisy to enjoy. Often the impact of poor sound quality and its effect on a business is overlooked until customer issues arise. Enhance the ambiance, give people a great experience, reduce ordering errors and promote... --- ### Autism Awareness And Sensory Overload > Learn about the hundreds of noises that can cause a child, teen or adult with autism to experience sensory overload and find out how soundproofing can help. - Published: 2016-04-12 - Modified: 2025-03-31 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/autism-awareness-sensory-overload/ With the latest DC Comic character release, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, we naturally want to go back and analyze the history of these superheroes. As a company sensitive and attuned to sound, Superman’s heightened sense of hearing struck a chord with us. So we rewound to 2013’s film, Man of Steel, to learn of Superman’s (played by actor Henry Cavill) character. Before Superman knew he was super, he was just Clark Kent. A boy living on a farm and attending school. It’s in one of his classrooms where we get to see him experience one of his super skills. All of a sudden, he hears everything. Fingers tapping. The clock. His teacher talking. The noises combined are overwhelming and he needs to leave the room. While we don’t know anyone with x-ray vision and Clark Kent didn’t have Autism, it’s scenes like that that give us a glimpse into a day in the life with someone who has a spectrum disorder. Sensory overload comes in many forms. Too much touch. Too much light. Too much sound. The latter is sometimes the most overwhelming because we don’t realize how many places around us carry sound. Soon we are surrounded with a cacophony of sound. Sometimes we think if we turn off the TV and the music, we are turning off all outlets and channels of noise disturbance. But there are hundreds of other noises in existence that can cause a child, teen or adult with autism to experience sensory... --- --- ## Guides ### Chapter 5: Townhouses, Apartments & Condos > Is noise a concern in your townhouse, apartment or condo? Learn how you can soundproof your townhouse, apartment or condo with products from Soundproof Cow. - Published: 2018-01-31 - Modified: 2024-02-23 - URL: https://www.soundproofcow.com/online-guides/wall-soundproofing/chapter-5-soundproofing-townhouses-apartments-condos/ How To Install Soundproofing In Townhouses, Apartments and Condos? Soundproofing Between Separate Townhomes and Other Living Spaces It’s nice to have neighbors — sometimes. For example, they are great if you lock yourself out in the middle of winter, or if you need someone to watch your home while you vacation in the Caribbean. But as with most things in life, having neighbors has its cons, too — like neighbor noise, for instance, or lack of privacy. There are plenty of ways to minimize sound between homes and through walls, and a lot of them do not require construction or altering the building. So, you might not have to worry about a very unhappy landlord to soundproof your home. The very first thing you’ll need to do is identify where the problem noise is coming from. To do this, turn off all appliances and devices, and walk around your home. Check for noise from neighbors or outside sources. Is the noise inside your home or outside? Is it coming from above or below or between homes? Is the issue a matter of sound quality? If you wish for better sound quality, in say, your family room, that can be an easy fix with the addition of acoustic panels or sound-absorbing products. If the noise is coming from an outside source, like cars passing by or construction, you’ll have to take soundproofing steps like: Installing soundproofing products on the walls Installing ceiling acoustical treatment if the noise is above you Installing... --- ### Chapter 4: Installation > Learn how to install new wall soundproofing products with our online guide.

New walls are a good place to start with soundproofing because they are like a blank canvas. It is easier to install soundproofing material with a new wall because you won’t need to tear anything down or add extra layers. Best Method for New Wall Soundproofing The best method for soundproofing a new wall is the same for any wall — add mass.

Leave a ¼-inch gap between layers. 5. Fill the gap with OSI Pro-Series SC-175 Acoustical Sound Sealant. 6. Finish the gypsum board.

The most popular and cost-efficient way to soundproof a wall post-construction is to add mass and seal areas where noise seeps through. One of our favorite materials is our Quiet Barrier® soundproofing material. This material stops noise in its tracks and can be easily applied to drywall with its peel-and-stick application. However, for the most soundproof room, you’ll want to consider adding soundproofing material to the existing wall, followed by a new layer of drywall. What Is the Best Way to Soundproof an Existing Wall? Our best method to soundproof a wall is to build a wall over the existing one using our soundproofing materials. Our IsoTrax® system keeps sound out and absorbs sound inside. Here’s how to install our recommended soundproofing system for minimal noise: Locate the studs in the wall with a stud finder. Mark them with chalk. Install the Quiet Barrier® HD onto the wall surface with roofing nails, 1 ¼-inch in size. Butt the edges of Quiet Barrier® HD together and try to minimize the number of seams. Place the Quiet Barrier® Tape over all seams. Install the IsoTrax® Soundproofing System over the barrier layer. Install the Echo Absorber™ Acoustic Panels between the IsoTrax® rails.

If you’ve covered the walls, floor and ceiling with quality soundproofing and you’re still getting significant unwanted noise from outside, you might be missing something. That something is those little holes and gaps in walls and around windows and doorways that are inevitable in virtually any space.

You’ve put up soundproofing in every room — on the walls, the ceiling and the floor — but somehow that harsh, unwanted sound is still getting in? If this experience is the one you’re having, you’re not alone. The fact is that if any cracks, holes or gaps lead from the inside of your home or the room you’re trying to soundproof to the outside world, sound can travel in. If air can get in, sound waves can get in too. So what can you do? It’s not feasible to try to cover up every gap with ordinary soundproofing or jam regular foam into open spaces, but there’s a solution. This is where our 2-part liquid expanding urethane foam comes to the rescue. It’s quite simple to plug all gaps in soundproofing with this miraculous, pourable urethane foam. All you need to do is pour it into any gap, and it will immediately expand to fill the space, adding buoyancy, increasing thermal insulation and, most importantly, blocking the void so that air and sound can’t sneak through. Once the product dries and cures, you can paint right over it or cover it with epoxy, resin or polyester. It’s fully water-resistant and will not melt. As a result, no one will know that you had an unwanted gap.

This product comes in a pleasing white color and features 1. 5 inches of open celled, acoustic melamine.

Choose this acoustic foam product for applications or buildings that require a Class A™ rating for exposed materials. Class A™ Anechoic Acoustic Foam is perfect for areas that have high temperatures or where sparks may fly. Our Class A™ foams are made with open celled, acoustic melamine. This product was specially created to give excellent noise absorption qualities, while offering something else other foams can’t …a Class A™ flammability rating. Environments where large numbers of people congregate demand Class A™ products rather than flammable polyurethane foams. Class A™ Anechoic Acoustic Foam reduces echo within any environment, and it’s double convoluted texture adds architectural interest. UDDERLY QUIET® CLASS A™ ANECHOIC ACOUSTIC FOAM 1” WHITE (CASE OF 18) There are some areas where quality soundproofing is a must. Podcast studios, music studios, home theaters and certain medical facilities are just some of the places where unwanted low-frequency sounds and echoes can ruin the environment. For some of these locations, traditional polyurethane soundproofing foam can do the job. However, if you are soundproofing an area that gets a lot of traffic or where sparks or flame are a possibility, polyurethane may not be a safe option. Polyurethane is not particularly flame-resistant, and your local building fire codes may not allow polyurethane soundproofing foam under their regulations for exposed materials. Our Udderly Quiet® Class A™ 1” white anechoic acoustic foam is perfect for this situation. These are 1” thick, 2’ x 4’ 1” white anechoic foam panels made from open celled acoustic melamine, not polyurethane. You get 18 with each case, allowing you to cover a full 144 square feet of room with quality soundproofing. This bright white, aesthetically pleasing foam in an attractive 3D double convoluted pattern is much more heat-resistant than polyurethane thanks to the chemical properties of open-celled acoustic melamine but will still offer the same soundproofing power. Tests show that the Noise Reduction Coefficient of our melamine foam is equal to or greater than that of a similar polyurethane foam panel. You can expect our Class A™ 1” white anechoic foam panels to meet most building fire code regulations, even those that require a... --- ### Quiet Barrier® Class A Specialty Composite > Experience top-notch soundproofing with the Quiet Barrier® Class A Specialty Composite Soundproof Barrier.

Lining your packages with polyethylene foam will ensure that they stay in place and remain protected even on long shipping journeys. What Are Polyethylene Sheets? Polyethylene sheets are a type of closed cell foam. Because the cells that make up the foam are tight, or closed together, the sheets are very rigid and resilient.

With this foam, you can confidently expect that your item will arrive at its final designation safe and secure inside your packaging. What Is Polyethylene Shipping Foam? Unlike open cell foam, polyethylene is a closed cell type of foam, which means the cells inside are pressed up against one another. This structure creates a rigid and resilient material that can be used for padding fragile items and lining the containers of shipping packages. What Can Polyethylene Foam Sheets Be Used For? Polyethylene foam sheets can be used to ship items that require extra cushioning while being handled, shipped and delivered. It's a versatile foam that has been used over the years to minimize vibration and deliver shock-absorbing properties.

If not, perhaps you should ask what you are doing about your corners — even if you already have soundproofing in your sound-sensitive room. Corners are often neglected when it comes to soundproofing, but if you are experiencing unwanted low-frequency noise, they just may be the culprit. Two walls next to each other means a lot of stray sounds bouncing against each other, which can create plenty of echo and bass distortion. Thankfully, there is a very easy solution to this problem, and Soundproof Cow has it. Our 24” charcoal acoustic foam corner bass traps are a perfect fit for small- to medium-sized studios, theaters and other sound-sensitive rooms that need a way to deal with harsh bass sounds emanating from the corners.

GRAY (CASE OF 4) If you're recording a song, doing a podcast or in some other situation where low-frequency bass sounds can ruin your operation, you need to make sure you're in a clean sound environment. That can be difficult if you're working in your own home studio or other recording environment that may not have the best acoustics. A great solution is acoustic foam that's specifically designed to trap those kinds of sounds. The problem is that the standard bass-absorbing foam may not fit everywhere, particularly the corners of your studio where sounds can bounce around and create interference the most. The ideal solution, especially if you have a somewhat larger room that may have a lot of low-frequency sounds to absorb, is the Soundproof Cow Class A™ Corner Trap 48” in gray. Each 48” grey corner trap foam order comes with four traps — one to fit neatly in each corner and quietly absorb sound. The neutral gray color allows these traps to blend in with virtually any environment. Another challenge those trying to soundproof their studio may also face is the fact that most acoustic foam is not particularly resistant to heat or flames, which means the building codes may prohibit a lot of foams from being used in some studios. Fortunately, that's not something you'll ever have to worry about when you order the Udderly Quiet® 48” Class A™ Corner Trap from Soundproof Cow. These traps have a Class... --- ### Udderly Quiet® Class A™ Corner Trap 48" White (Case of 4) > Udderly Quiet® Class A™ Corner Trap 48" in white comes in a case of 4.

If you're recording a speech or song, delivering a radio address or doing a podcast, you can’t have interfering sounds ruining the quality of your performance. But soundproofing a studio can be a challenge, especially if it's a larger room with a lot of opportunities for sounds to clash. One of the places where you'll find some of those unwanted sounds being generated the most frequently is in corners, where sounds can bounce off the hard surface of one wall right into another one. A very effective solution is a foam corner trap, a piece of acoustic foam specially designed to catch low-frequency sounds and other harsh noises that are causing you problems. Once you find such a product, you may be distressed to learn that the acoustic foam is too flammable to use in your studio. Soundproof Cow has the answer to all these issues with our 48” white Udderly Quiet® Class A™ Corner Trap. This is a 4-foot-high corner trap that we'll deliver to you in cases of four so that you can put one in each corner.

WHITE (CASE OF 8) There’s nothing worse than having a podcast or music recording ruined by some uninvited noise interference or reverberations. That’s why, if you're setting up a studio, the first thing you should do is make sure the acoustics are good and add soundproofing where necessary. Complete soundproofing of even a small studio isn’t always easy. It can be particularly challenging in the corners, where hard surfaces (walls) are very close together, making it extremely easy for sounds of different frequencies to bounce off each other and create the very type of interference you're trying to avoid. Soundproof Cow has the answer in the form of our 24” white Udderly Quiet® Class A™ Corner Trap. This 24” white corner trap has an aesthetically intriguing look and a clean white appearance that will look great in your studio.

Just drop them in the corners and let them go to work absorbing all that unwanted sound, leaving you with nothing but the melodious sounds you want to project or record. The problem with other corner traps that you may sometimes encounter is that standard acoustic foam tends to be somewhat flammable and may not be permissible under your building code. That won’t be a problem with this 24” white corner trap foam. It's Class A™ fire rated, which means... --- ### Udderly Quiet® Acoustic Panel - 400 Series > Udderly Quiet® Acoustic Panel 400 Series is a low profile material that is thin, durable, and tackable.

Are you looking for a soundproofing solution that’s flexible and unobtrusive? If so, our Udderly Quiet® Spiral Trap Acoustic Foam may be right up your alley. One of the biggest challenges to noise control is reverberation. Echoes resulting from sound waves reflecting off hard surfaces and other low-frequency sounds can interfere with the frequencies you’re trying to record or listen to and create a harsh cacophony of sound. If you have a recording studio or home theater, you probably already have soundproofing, but it may not be quite doing the job. You may also have an area like a child’s room or an office conference room that simply isn’t equipped for adequate soundproofing, but has poor acoustics that you need to improve.

These types of rooms tend to feature a lot of surface reflection noise, with certain sounds bouncing off of walls and interfering with more desirable frequencies, creating harsh sounds that can be frustrating and distracting.

Class A™ Anechoic Acoustic Foam reduces echo within any environment, and it’s double convoluted texture adds architectural interest. UDDERLY QUIET® CLASS A™ ANECHOIC ACOUSTIC FOAM 1. 5” GRAY (CASE OF 18) Your recording studio, home theater, auditorium or other sound-sensitive environment cannot be effective unless it is properly soundproofed. You may be fortunate to find a venue with strong acoustics, but too often there are harsh surfaces, severe angles and other features that cause sound waves to echo, interfere and reverberate, creating interference that will disrupt a listening experience. A simple and efficient solution is anechoic acoustic foam, which absorbs those unwanted noises to allow clear sound to shine through. In many cases, polyurethane foam is used for this purpose, as it is great at capturing low-, medium- and high-frequency sounds. However, your particular sound-sensitive environment may run up against local building fire code regulations for exposed materials if you try to install polyurethane foam. Polyurethane is more flammable than some other substances, and if your environment may be subjected to sparks or high temperatures, it may not be the best choice. If you are in this situation, try our 1. 5” gray anechoic foam panels which consist of Class A-rated open celled melamine. This is a highly flame- and heat-resistant product that has a similar Noise Reduction Coefficient to polyurethane. Each case comes with 12 2’ x 4’ gray panels with a 3D, double-convoluted design of 1. 5”-thick sound-absorbing melamine, enough to cover 96 square feet of surface. Each panel is made in the U. S. A. to the same density, so you get consistent soundproofing throughout.... --- ### Udderly Quiet® Class A™ Anechoic Acoustic Foam 4" Gray (Case of 4) > Our Udderly Quiet® Class A™ Anechoic Acoustic Foam is engineered with flame-resistant, acoustic foam.

Those building professional music studios, broadcasting stations, venues and commercial buildings with heavy equipment often turn to our Class A™ Anechoic Acoustic Foam, as these melamine-based products can handle constant temperatures up to 320 degrees Fahrenheit.

UDDERLY QUIET® CLASS A™ ANECHOIC ACOUSTIC FOAM 4” GRAY (CASE OF 4) Harsh noises, reverberations, heavy bass and echoes can ruin your acoustics. If you are trying to record music, deliver a podcast, give a speech or put on a performance, the last thing you need is sound interference. However, it’s not always possible to find a venue with the right acoustics, which is why quality soundproofing materials are so important. Soundproof Cow, which leads the way in soundproofing solutions, has done it again with our Udderly Quiet® Class A™ 4” Gray Anechoic Acoustic Foam. What makes these 4” gray anechoic foam panels so special is that they provide all the soundproofing power you have come to expect from our standard polyurethane foam panels, as well as extreme heat- and flame-resistance. The problem with ordinary polyurethane panels is that polyurethane can ignite when subjected to sparks, open flame or high heat. It is resistant enough not to combust under ordinary conditions where it is not subjected to flame, and meet local building fire codes for exposed materials that may not allow polyurethane soundproofing foam. Our Class A™ gray anechoic acoustic foam is made of an open-celled acoustic melamine. This is a Class A-rated substance that will not combust from random sparks and can stand temperatures as high as 482 degrees Fahrenheit, with a constant temperature tolerance as high as 320 degrees Fahrenheit.

UDDERLY QUIET® CLASS A™ ANECHOIC ACOUSTIC FOAM 3” GRAY (CASE OF 5) Udderly Quiet® 3” Gray Class A™ Anechoic Acoustic Foam is an all-purpose soundproofing solution that can help you manage high-, medium- and low-frequency sounds, including unwanted bass, reverberations and echoes even in areas where flammability is a concern. Whether you are soundproofing a recording studio, warehouse, gym, medical facility, home theater or any other sound-sensitive environment, there will be some situations where the building containing the area you need to soundproof has stricter than normal fire codes for exposed materials. What this means is that your location may be more susceptible to sparks, high heat or other conditions that could cause combustion in sensitive materials. Polyurethane foam is great at absorbing sound, but is not highly flame-resistant, so it may not meet your building’s code requirements. These panels are made not of polyurethane, but of open-celled acoustic melamine foam. This is a material that has a Noise Reduction Coefficient equivalent to a similar panel of polyurethane foam, but will not combust from sparks, as it has a Class A fire rating and considerable heat resistance. In fact, our Class A 3” gray anechoic foam panels have heat resistance up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit and can withstand consistent temperatures of 320 degrees Fahrenheit. Our panels are a neutral gray color with a distinctive 3D double-convoluted pattern that should blend in perfectly with any surface you need to soundproof.

These three-inch-thick foam panels contain plenty of soundproofing power, so much so that it may surprise you to learn they are not made of polyurethane.

This miraculous substance has a Noise Reduction Coefficient comparable to polyurethane, but with a Class A fire-rating that gives it tremendous heat and fire resistance and allows it to meet those stricter building codes. You don’t have to worry about stray sparks or temperature spikes igniting these panels, which can resist constant temperatures up to 320 degrees Fahrenheit and can stand temperatures as high as 482 degrees Fahrenheit.

They install them in their home theaters for the best experience. Udderly Quiet® 3-inch charcoal pyramid acoustic foam reduces reverberation (echo) wherever you want. Pyramids That Look Good and Sound Great Each of our 3-inch charcoal pyramid foams has a distinct pyramid design. We didn't make them this way just so they look cool — okay, maybe just a little. Sound experts use pyramid foam instead of flat foam because of its surface area. The sides of each pyramid provide extra space for more echo absorption. A sound foam that has pyramids offers the best echo reduction out there. Unbeatable Quality, Inaudi-Bull Echoes We don't mess around with our foams. Our herd uses professional-grade polyurethane to create every panel. The 3-inch thickness and sturdiness of the foam lower the risk of tearing. At the same time, it has a low weight that lets you set it up just about anywhere. You can even count on our foams to keep their color for a longer time than the competition.

Order your floor joist isolators from Soundproof Cow today for shipment in one to three business days. Soundproofing Floor Joists If you are soundproofing a room, it’s important not to neglect the floor. While most sound transmission may come through walls, any barrier between you and the outside of your space needs to be reinforced against sound to truly protect you from unwanted noise transmission. Part of soundproofing your floor is isolating the flooring from the structural assembly. This is important due to the problem of impact noise, noise caused by vibrations and impacts rather than through airborne frequencies. This noise can be just as distracting as airborne noise. Block Vibrational Noise Through the Floor Therefore, for true floor noise and sound reduction, you need Floor Joist Isolators. These are U-shaped pieces of thermoplastic, which is known for its sound control properties. The pieces fit around your joists and block the vibrational noise from coming through your floor. The isolators can fit on any 2X lumber product, and they are easy to install. In fact, you simply fit them over the joist and snap them into place. There are no tools of any kind required, and anyone can do it, so if you are working on a do-it-yourself soundproofing project like creating a home recording studio, these are a perfect item to include. Before laying down sound-deadening rugs, barriers or other floor soundproofing material, you need to control for vibrational noise. With our Floor Joist Isolators, you have the tools you need.

The Stud Beam Isolators are sized to fit any 2X lumber product, are very easy to install and are best used for new construction when floor joists are exposed. Floor Joist Isolators for Vibration Noise Airborne noise isn’t the only sound you need to block if you are trying to create a quiet, soundproof environment. You also have impact noise to contend with, and some of the greatest impact noise can come from your floor. For improved soundproofing of a floor, order Floor Joist Isolators from Soundproof Cow. What Is a Floor Joist? A floor joist is a horizontal beam above the foundation that transfers weight to the vertical beams. Most floor joists are single or double and are common in houses built on top of basements or wooden foundations. Joists help enclose the foundation and improve the structural integrity of the entire home. The rest of a flooring system is then built on top, like the subfloor and underlayment. What Are Flooring Joist Isolators? If you’re not familiar with Floor Joist Isolators, these U-shaped thermoplastic pieces fit easily over floor joists to improve both the Sound Transmission Class (STC) and Impact Insulation Class (IIC) of your flooring assembly. They do this by isolating the flooring from the structural supports. This prevents vibrations and vibrational noise from traveling through the structural supports and transmitting sound into the room through the floor. We make our floor joist isolators with a medium-density thermoplastic that is common as a vibration-dampening solution in industrial machinery. The result is a product that improves your floor's Impact Insulation Class (IIC) and Sound Transmission Class (STC). These isolators reduce sound transmission, specifically low-frequency sounds.

This is critical for preventing impact noise by stopping vibrations from affecting the soundproofing assembly. The other main feature of the isoTRAX® kit is the 35 Visco elastic pads with Visco elastic washers.

The second is whether your material meets building fire code regulations for exposed materials. With Soundproof Cow’s Udderly Quiet® Class A™ 2” gray anechoic foam panels, you have both of these considerations covered.

UDDERLY QUIET® CLASS A™ ANECHOIC ACOUSTIC FOAM 1” GRAY (CASE OF 18) You’re ready to soundproof your home theater, garage recording studio or podcasting studio. Or, perhaps you have a commercial facility to soundproof, like a medical office or auditorium. Whatever your soundproofing job is, you have two concerns: Finding the right product to capture all the echoes, reverberations, harsh noises and other low-, medium- and high-frequency sounds that could interfere with your environment Making sure whatever product you choose meets existing building code regulations If you have used soundproofing foam before, the first concern may seem easy to resolve. You may know polyurethane has excellent soundproofing qualities. However, you may also know it is not strong in terms of flame-resistance. This means if you are in a location with stricter building fire safety codes for exposed materials, you may have a problem. Udderly Quiet® Class A™ 1” Gray Anechoic Acoustic Foam is the solution you need. These are lightweight 2’ x 4’ panels of 1”-thick soundproofing foam in an unobtrusive gray color and appealing 3D double convoluted pattern.

Class A™ Anechoic Acoustic Foam reduces echo within any environment, and it’s double convoluted texture adds architectural interest. UDDERLY QUIET® CLASS A™ ANECHOIC ACOUSTIC FOAM 2” WHITE (CASE OF 8) Good soundproofing is crucial for a variety of personal and commercial environments. If you are attempting to record an album or podcast, giving a performance or even delivering a speech, harsh noises, reverberations and echoes can ruin the experience. You need a reliable soundproofing product that can absorb all frequencies of unwanted sound to allow clear recording and communication. For some environments, you may have another problem, which is meeting local building fire code regulations for exposed materials. Conventional wisdom is that the best foam for absorbing multi-frequency sound is polyurethane. However, while polyurethane can have many positive qualities, great fire and heat resistance are not among them. If your studio, theater or other facility has stricter building fire codes, you need a Class A rated solution. That solution is Soundproof Cow’s Udderly Quiet® Class A™ 2” White Anechoic Acoustic Foam. These are 2”-thick, bright white anechoic foam panels that are great at sound absorption, but made of Class A open celled acoustic melamine, not polyurethane.

This gives you sufficient coverage for 64 square feet of space. The panels have a clean, distinctive 3D double convoluted pattern and are carefully designed to have a uniform density, so you get evenly clear sound throughout the room.

Quiet Wrap™ Pipe Soundproofing Wrap significantly reduces noise from PVC and cast iron pipes of any size. These soundproofing wrap for pipes include a foam composite barrier with a ½-pound sound barrier membrane. We laminate the barrier to a ¼ inch of polyurethane foam with an adhesive backing. These pipe soundproofing wraps block noise in two ways. The first is through the isolated barrier layer, which stops noise from entering the foam layer. The second way the pipe wrap aids in reducing noise is through the adhesive backing, which reduces the vibration of the water entering the pipes and perceived noise. See below for specific dimensions, specifications, shipping information and a more detailed description of this pipe wrap. This product is no longer available in the State of California.

One of the most challenging parts of a home or business to soundproof are the pipes. Even if you fully soundproof all of your walls, ceilings and floors, if you have noisy pipes, you’re not fully soundproofed. Pipe noise insulation is a crucial element of complete soundproofing. You can fill the area around the pipes with sound absorbing material, but unless you soundproof the water pipes themselves with a pipe soundproofing wrap, you are still going to hear the noise of water sloshing around. Fortunately, Soundproof Cow has the perfect solution in the form of Quiet Wrap™ Pipe Soundproofing Wrap. This acoustic pipe insulation product is suitable for use anytime you need to soundproof your pipes. The best time to wrap pipes for soundproofing is during construction when you have full access to the pipes. If you are trying to soundproof plumbing pipes in an already-built house, however, our Quiet Wrap™ Pipe Soundproofing Wrap is still quite effective. You can just wrap it around any exposed cast iron, copper or PVC pipes to dampen and block unwanted pipe noise. What is Quiet Wrap™ Pipe Soundproofing Wrap We think that Quiet Wrap™ Pipe Soundproofing Wrap is the absolute best way to rid yourself of the clanking and sloshing sounds of active pipes. It consists of an industrial-grade barrier/foam composite made of a 1/2-pound, high-density sound barrier membrane laminated with... --- ### PR 11 Water Based Primer > PR 11 Water Based Primer is used to prepare flooring substrates for PROFLEX 90 flooring underlayment.
