To cover from bottom to top (3 m) is probably a good idea. You can cover the insulation with a (metal net), blanket or any kind of textile or combination you like - even use a spray can and paint it, it might even look cool. What kind of stuff you choose to use is often tricky to decide. IMO, glass and mineral wool tend to be more neutral when it comes to sound reflections while foam based insulation tends to reflect more deeper sounds, which makes the acoustic worthless. It's far better to have some reflections which have a nice sound than a unbalanced bad sounding reflections - that often means some kind of wood wall with thick insulation. You also play bass guitar, that means that you probably want to cover the corner with a bass trap as well. Information about this subject is everywhere, the 'net is full of wannabe experts (like me), some pointers that can help you: http://www.acoustics101.com/ http://artsites.ucsc.edu/EMS/music/tech_background/TE-14/teces_14.html http://www.auralex.com/c_studio_construction/c_studio_construction.asp http://www.tweakheadz.com/acoustic_room_treatment.htm Jostein
