In this video, we are back once again with Graham and Mike of Music City Acoustics to talk through how to treat a studio space, and this time we're covering diffusion. Studio sound diffusion can be a difficult topic and there is certainly much more to discuss here, but we hope this video not only sheds some light on what kind of diffusion you can use in your studio but also how you can build your own sound diffusion DIY style.

ADAM Audio was founded in March 1999 in Berlin. Since then the company has been developing, manufacturing and distributing loudspeakers in the field of Professional Audio.
The development of the X-ART (eXtended Accelerating Ribbon Technology) tweeter based on the 1960’s invention of the Air Motion Transformer by Oskar Heil was largely responsible for the company’s founding. Producing sound not with a piston-like diaphragm as is done in most of the loudspeakers that are on the market, but using a pleated diaphragm that is capable of moving the air 4 times faster than the folds themselves are moving was the appealing idea behind it all. The achieved results were intriguing and gave ample reason for moving forward.

Not particularly. Of course my generation received a proper education unlike yours, so I understand why converting fractions to decimals is difficult for many.

I have been looking for easy to build & effective DIY diffuser designs for MONTHS and I have to say, these are probably the easiest, and most cost effective build I have found. My biggest question is, how do they perform?! I'm willing to build some to find out, so we'll see how it goes. Going to start on them today, but wanted to also share a few thoughts for anyone else considering building these. The DIY design they run through in the video is basically an extremely dumbed down version of how to build these with minimal cutting, minimal labor, and minimal tools. They altered some critical components of the design in order to make it as easy as possible to build yourself. As a builder myself, here are a couple recommendations I would make to anyone willing to put in a little extra effort, and has the tools available: - Solid wood, especially the common board mentioned in the video, likes to move, bend, twist, etc over time. Using 1x material over a 48" distance this is likely to happen. So even if, initially, you are able to find straight pieces and build them straight and square, over time they will start to move and probably not be straight & square after about 6 months or a year. So just be prepared for that. I am planning to build these out of 3/4" plywood instead. It will be more labor intensive and require a table saw to cut the plywood down, but plywood is much more stable than solid wood, so will have better longevity. That's probably the primary reason they use birch plywood in their production models. - In the same realm as above, using 2 screws to hold the pieces together is ok, but I would caution people to be very careful when driving the screws, especially when using solid wood. Solid wood is prone to splitting when you drive a screw too hard, especially on the ends. A better design would be to drill dowels where the two pieces join together, and use glue. This will be a much stronger joint and you don't run the risk of blowing the wood out with a screw. Again, slightly more labor intensive, and requires some waiting time for glue to dry, but would yield a much better product. You can buy dowel jig kits at the hardware store for ~$30-$40. These will help to make sure you drill the dowels in the right spot so that you keep the two pieces flush when you join them together.

Regarding the space coupling diffuser, do you mount it directly to the wall or should there be an air gap between the diffuser and wall? It looks like the diffuser is about three inches thick and the slats are 1/4 inch thick? I'm considering having one made 72"X42" for behind the couch which is close to the back wall. Thanks for your information!

The Quadratic Residue Diffuser sometimes called primitive root diffusor (not sure why people are calling it scatter face this will not lead to any good google results when searching for calculators) are made for a room that has a certain frequency that is peaking compared to a normal freq sweep that doesnt have a certain freq. peaking from a secondary reflection. First do a sweep with REW software this will show what freq you want to control. Secondly use one of the many QRD calculators to figure the size in association to your room size. You will be better off just doing absorption first reflection and then go after any standing waves with a bass traps them lastly check for peaks. Combining the QRD and an absorption in the same place isnt really right. People are doing it on amazon but wouldnt buy one because it will not lead to a correct sound. Might look cool but sound crappy. Hope this helps....

I'll add: find a way to suspend your sub and not have it in direct contact with the floor. Although low frequencies will carry through your hardwood, it's the vibrations from your sub being in contact with (a) surface that will cause the most noticeable disturbance.

Dream on. I used to live in a second floor apartment and had everything the same as you. I really tried to practice my bass guitar at a soft volume but I could hear the lady upstairs saying to someone: "This is what I have to listen to every night." The people downstairs would yell my name at 2am due to the floors squeaking when I walked. They were even letting the air out of my tires on my truck and turning down the temperature on my hot water heater which was in the common basement area. Apartment living, especially on the second floor, is no place for woofers or sub woofers, even at soft levels. Put in for a different apartment on the ground floor in a corner as isolated as you can find. Then maybe all you will have to do is sound proof the ceiling.
