These DIY or homemade acoustic panels are also known as sound absorption panels, rockwool acoustic panels, DIY sound panels, etc. Add them to your vocal booth, home theatre, home studio or pro studio for improved sound and monitoring when mixing and mastering. The acoustic absorption will reduce sound reflection and enhance your ability to mix properly. Additionally, each panel may not be advertised as a bass trap, but they do absorb a significant amount of bass. More bass trap will occur as panels are added.
