Answer 2

In super high end houses they dump sand in the walls. Foam will not do the trick.

Answer 3

There are many products made to treat a room and reduce noise leakage.

QuietRock® soundproof drywall,

QuietWood® soundproof wood,

QuietGlue® viscoelastic damping glue,

Dynamat

The idea is isolation. Don't use nails to put up the QuietRock because they will conduct the sound to the studs and out. Instead glue it to the drywall with the QuietGlue.  You can Dynamat the Door to increase the sound isolation.

Have fun.

Answer 4

go to lows or what ever you go to and ask some one there how to do it.

Answer 5

The most effective way is to build a room within a room, with separate inner and outer doors that are well-sealed.   (Use solid core, exterior doors with weatherstripping.)  The idea is that even though the inner walls will vibrate with the sound, it won't be conducted directly to the outer walls and the rest of the building.  Double thickness drywall will help, too.

Answer 6

There is no real way exept to hire some people to make your room sound-proof...for now just shut ur window and put a town under the door crack.

Answer 7

probably filling all the walls of the room with mattresses against the walls thats what i saw once on mtv cribs a rapper put mattresses in his closet and a microphone and he records his music in the closet
