Acoustic Treatment..how?

thaesus — Wed, 18 Apr 2007 18:14:33 +0800

hi, i play the drums for my band and we jam at my church in an office lot very often...
the problem is that the sound there sucks big time..
the floor is carpeted, but the walls are plain concrete, and the ceiling is quite low...
theres a ton of echo and reverb..its ANNOYING!
even the slightest of hits on the drum sounds way too loud,
and the bass guitar is boomy and noisy...
nothing is clear and defined and voices cant be heard above all this noise...

i have been planning on acoustically treating this room to make our sessions sound nicer...

i have read a little about diffusers, bass trappers, and absorbers...but i dont know how to implement this knowledge into DIYing my own panels etc...

can anyone help me? maybe you have a contact who does sound treatment?
or someone who sells the material required?

i would really appreciate anyones help!!

thanks!!
