Hi,
I recently moved with my Band (www.jimson-drift.de) into a new
rehearsalroom. I'm thinking of building a drum booth especially for
recording. Can someone point me to the right literature? I'm interested the
Physics of room acoustics and would like to first understand the problem
theoretically (that means the math). I want to understand the
distribution of the acoustic modes of a given room in order to
optimize/minimize their amplitude, as well as the
reverberation/reflection aspects of different materials. Just want
deeper insights to plan the booth.
Thanks,
Gerald

I found the book "Studio Akustik - Konzepte für besseren Klang" by
Andreas Friesecke a good text on that topic. The math is well explained
and it has a lot of practical advice four building your own recording
space. Although the author assumes you want to build a semi-commercial
recording studio. The book is in German but I guess you won't mind. :-)

I'd go for the cult classic : Master Handbooks of acoustics (lot of
therory + practical examples)
Avoid - at all costs- internet "wisdom", except for very practical
stuffs such as DIY "broadband" absorbers and such. But I insist very
much on this point : about this very topic, people on the internet don't
know what they are talking about, and people who know rarely write on
the internet. (however I wouldn't be surprise to see acoustic experts in
this list, but LAD is not the "wild internet")
Even better : if you have a science universiity library nearby, they
probably have thesis and many books you can't find on amazon...
depending how deep you wanna dig
Please note that building accoustic booth is a job by itself.

In Germany you can lent writings/books from other city
libraries and university libraries by your local library.
