What's the material used in bass traps you called "clot

How thick should my walls be, should I float my floors (and if so, how), why is two leaf mass-air-mass design important, etc.

Hugo, I've just bookmarked this site

http://www.spanishdict.com/

And you should save it too -

According to that site, cloth = tela
carpet = alfombra

If you use that free dictionary, it will help you learn more of the english words used here; you can even click on the little speaker icon next to the words, and hear the words spoken.

Carpet and cloth are both woven (tejer, I think) but normally carpet is thick (grueso, denso, espeso) while cloth is thin (escurrido) (Hey, this is kinda fun)

The link I gave seems to be kind of over-loaded; you might want to use this one instead, it is faster

http://www.freedict.com/onldict/spa.html

Some translations that might help when talking about bass traps -

insulation = aislamiento
density = densidad
corner = esquina
wall = pared, muro
floor = pavimento
ceiling = techo
plywood = contrachapado
caulk = calafatear

OK, I'll stop now - please save that last link, it will be useful many times as we work on your studio... Steve

Hugo, please don't apologise for your English - my Spanish is abominable in comparación - together, quizá nosotros ambos aprender, correcto ?

See, doesn't my crappy attempt at Spanish make you feel better about your English? :oops: Steve
