Cheapest Vocal Recording Booth

Here's a simple solution, and maybe the cheapest vocal recording booth for your home/project studio. It will give you a dry vocal, but not TOO dead, and will give you a little bit of silkiness. It might cost you the cost of a couple comforters if you can't convince your wife that "they will be put to good use..." but chalk up $40-50 bux and get the biggest comforters you can get from target or the like. (if that is too much, you might try browsing a couple thrift shops too.) You'll also need some way to suspend them from the ceiling. i.e. hanger wire. (so go to home depot or the like after you've secured the blankets, and pick up a spool of hanger wire, or whatever your celing situation dictates..

1. buy, find, pull out of your closet; the two biggest comforters you got. (you'll want em pretty thick too)

2. sem em together. (the short sides)

3. sew thick loops of fabric along the top edge. ( i did 10 or 12...)

4. suspend the blanket from the ceiling using the wire forming a diamond like shape, or two v's connected .... something like this <>

5. Enjoy! the drier you want get closer to it, the less dry, move farther away... play around with the mics placement in there, i guarantee you find some of those, THATS THE SPOT's...

Now just record great performances, use effective gain staging, and you'll track great vocal recordings everytime!
