    Best place to start is a good book on the subject, The Master Handbook of Acoustics has lots of info on sound proofing.

    true Soundproofing requires construction

    what you want to do it reduce sound

    you won't be doing any soundproofing for cheap
    you'll have to break down that dry wall and stuff it with some rockwool or OWENS CORNING 705

    I just say try to make music at certain times of the day when ppl in your neighborhood is at work

    I hope you don't live in a townhouse or apt.
    always better to have a single family home

    what are you using for acoustic treatment for your reflection points and taming you bass???
    if you answer is nothing do that first

    I work with sm7b and pre73 golden age
    and I get professional recordings
    with no acoustic treatment
    and I work near a noisy road!
