Hi, new here and new to acoustics, have been reading a lot and trying to digest it all.
I have a new space to use for a small home studio. The room is 2.9m x 7.2m and 3.2m high. The walls and floor are thick concrete. The floor is tiled. It will be used for ambient, electronic music. So mainly space for my synths.
I want to make a start with some basic corner traps and mount some panels on the wall. After reading it seems like 4" thick 120x60 panels are a good place to start. Rockwool safe and sound is the most readily available where I live in 40, 60, and 100.
About the corner traps. Which would be a good option to start from? Single 4" panel straddling the corner. Floor to ceiling 4" panel straddling the corner. A superchunk that's 60cm across the front. A floor to ceiling 8" square (Soffit) or possibly a 12" square
It seems that a square corner trap might offer some advantage in a tight room.

The more absorption, the better - particularly in a hard room. My reasoning is that it's better to start with an RFZ since that's where your hearing is centered. The next thing is corners/modal treatment. If using safe n sound then you want 8" thickness instead of 4" which is best for actual rigid insulation; pure fluffy is closer to 12".
