Context and Requirements
T’Snaky Studio is a professional multi-function studio in An Giang with a wide range of services from recording, mixing to sound and image post-production. Studio owner, Mr. Sa – a sound/visual engineer who graduated from abroad, is a very meticulous person. He cares about even the smallest detail and all the technical options available to:
Ensure the sound quality requirements, the ability to make the most of the existing space, take advantage of the old sound absorption modules – Mr. Sa, T’Snaky Studio
Right in front of the room is a large road, so soundproofing is an item that cannot be overlooked in this project.
We had to start with a room that wasn’t really suitable for a studio. Although the room area is not small (~22 m2), the position and size of the doors and windows are not reasonable, making it very difficult to choose a good mixing position. Combined with the client’s requirements and tight budget, this small project presented a real challenge.
Solution
We suggest that the acoustic engineer’s sitting orientation is completely different from conventional methods. Choose the perpendicular point of the room, sit across the room and design the entire acoustic processing system in this sitting direction.
The above method has the disadvantage that if it cannot handle the right-angled area in front, the sound at the mixing position will be extremely um and seriously unbalanced. All the disadvantages of this option have been understood by iSS engineers and have a suitable treatment method.
A very high-performance, wide-band bass trap is located in the front right-angled area to effectively absorb frequencies below 100 Hz. The wall-mounted sound absorption system on both sides works effectively with frequencies from 60 Hz and above combined with high-grade acoustic ceilings handling from 40-20,000 Hz.

Customer’s feedback
When asked about the experience of using the new room, Mr. Sa shared:
The sound in the room was very quiet. I tried to close the door and asked my mother and wife to stand outside screaming but didn’t hear anything. And I brought the Marshall speaker to 100% open outside and stood close to the door and heard a little bit. My Marshall is a WoBurn 2, pounding inside. So good!! Thank you very much iSS. The team of workers is standard and very careful! Sound absorption is also very good. Everything sounds clear, detailed and very well balanced. – Mr. Sa, T’Snaky Studio
Result
Through the objective feedback of our customers, we are confident that we have completed the task well. With a limited budget, the room is quite large, but there are many disadvantages for building a studio, the results are above the expectations of the homeowner. Of course, that is what iSS Acoustics has always been about and also our pride in cost-effective, high-quality acoustic solutions.
