Let’s delve into how to remove room resonance or echo without expensive gear:

Understanding Room Resonance:

Before diving into the methods of removing room resonance, it’s fundamental to get a clear understanding of what exactly room resonance or echo is. Unlike outdoor environments, closed rooms are likely to bounce sound waves around the room’s walls, floors, and ceilings when you speak, play music, or watch a movie. This will result in an echo or room resonance, which distorts the actual sound and takes away the clarity.

Acoustic Room Treatment:

Acoustic room treatment is an effective strategy to reduce room resonance without purchasing any expensive gear. The basic idea here is to alter the room’s shape or characteristics to reduce the overall reverberation. Nonetheless, while treating your room acoustically, the aim should not be to completely eliminate resonances but to manage and control them. Here is how you can give your room an acoustic treatment:

Hard Surfaces and Corners:

Noticeable echoes are typically caused by empty walls, hard surfaces, and room corners. Sound waves bounce off hard surfaces, traveling back and forth in the room, thus creating resonance. To prevent this, add soft materials such as carpets, rugs, or even upholstered furniture in the room. These items absorb the excessive sound waves and as a result, they lower the echo.

Stuffing Room Corners:

Stuffing room corners with bass traps is another way to control room resonance. Bass traps are specialized, absorptive devices that can be fixed in your room corners, a prime location where sound waves like to congregate. However, buying commercially available bass traps may be costly. In that scenario, you can replace them with a bookshelf stacked with different-size books. Surprisingly, the scattered arrangement of books and variation in sizes can scatter and absorb sound waves effectively.

Soft Furnishings:

Soft furnishings can absorb sound waves exponentially better than hard, flat surfaces. Placing items such as plush sofas, thick curtains, or even bean bags in your room will reduce the echo effectively. Also, scatter some throw pillows around the room. These items not only enhance your room’s aesthetic appeal but also improve its acoustical characteristics.

Diaphragmatic Absorbers:

Diaphragmatic absorbers are also useful in handling room resonance. Essentially, they are boxes filled with heavy substances, such as sand. The rigid front face of the absorber moves in sync with the audio frequencies, especially the lower ones, and through this movement, it absorbs sound energy and converts it into heat, thus damping room resonance.

Wall Hangings and Tapestries:

Decorate your walls with hanging fabrics, tapestries, or wool art pieces. They will not only add to room aesthetics but also help to diffuse high-frequency sound waves and kill resonances. The thicker the fabric, the more effective the absorption will be.

These are a few basic methods to reduce room resonance without the need for expensive gear. There are more advanced techniques, like diffusers and equalizers, which we will discuss in the next parts.
