How much mass to stop sound?

Hey guys-

I'm thinking about cheaply trowing up some drywall in a practice space to avoid the parallel wall problem. No soundproofing, just changing the acoustic dimensions in the room.

How much of a wall is needed?

Thanks-

PC,

first go here:

read it and follow it - then come back and tell us about your room - perhaps rephrase the question - it seems to totally contradict your thread heading.

Coolio. Feel free to delete the topic, it was a shoot-from-the-hip bit of cuiosity.

:D
