"I was wondering why the mix had a nasty bass return. These panels helped to reduce this and made all the difference. Thank you. ”

description.

When you are recording or mixing your music you need to listen to the music and not the room !!

Low-end frequencies have very long wavelengths. These wavelengths have a lot of strength. This means that more sound absorbing foam is necessary to absorb these frequencies. This is why bass traps are absolutely needed in any room that is going to be used for recording, mixing or practising. Add to that the fact that the low end frequencies tend to build up in the corners of a room and this is why we have corner bass traps. Most studios do not have the space or funds available to be able to treat the whole wall with thick, bass trapping foam. And you wouldn't want to do that either. Noise can be 6-12dB louder in a corner than in any part of a room and this is why we insist on the installation of bass traps in the corners.

Bass traps do not soak up all the low-end frequencies in your room. What they do is help to better define the low frequencies bringing them under to control and easier to recognise. This in turn helps you to achieve better results in your recordings. If a person is having trouble with the music sounding good in the studio but terrible in another room he or she needs bass traps. The situation just mentioned is a common problem and can easily be solved with the use of bass traps. These are not expensive and it is not necessary to fill a room with them. With correct installation in the right places low-end frequencies are tightened and excessive colouration is removed.

Is the foam flame-retardant?
Yes. It meets the requirements of schedule 1, part 1 the Furniture and Furnishings (fire) (safety) Regulations 1988 (amended 1989). Also no CFC's of HCFC's are used as alternative blowing agents in the manufacture of these foam grades, all water blown technology is used. No brominated compounds are used in the manufacture of these foam grades.
