Q) How do I attach ceiling tracks to hang blankets to my stucco ceiling?
A) For stucco ceilings, attach a flat horizontal support first. For example, you can attach a wooden frame (like 2 x 4 studs) and then attach the ceiling track support brackets to that flat support.
Here is a video on hanging blankets from a drop ceiling that may help give you an idea how this is done.
Using Producer’s Choice Acoustic Blankets During a Live Gig – A Musician’s Own Story
by Byron Santo, Bassist, Producer, Author & Beta Tester
My background is in performing, recording and mastering, but over the last two 2 years I’ve been doing more live sound due to my mixer beta testing.
One issue that I have encountered as well as many other sound engineers and musicians is bad venue and stage acoustics. I have played gigs that moving one foot on stage resulted in not being able to hear oneself. I started thinking what could live performers do to alleviate these acoustical problems considering that one could not alter the physical structure of the venues or stages. After much research, I discovered VocalBoothToGo’s Producer’s Choice acoustic blankets.
I decided to purchase one blanket to test. I had no experience in acoustic blankets but I did have experience in studio acoustical foam usage. After a few tests in my recording studio I decided to try the blanket in a live situation. Hanging the 6′ x 8′ blanket behind my drummer in an extremely bad acoustical sounding venue produced good results. The early reflections from the drums, amps and monitors were reduced resulting in a cleaner stage and PA sound. Two sound engineers were attending my gig that was familiar with the venue and its acoustical problems also heard a noticeable improvement.
I decided to purchase a 2nd acoustic blanket and try it on a stage, which had a back wall made of brick and glass. The side walls were also brick and the physical stage was made of plywood with no carpet and stood four feet tall. It was an acoustical nightmare. I hung the two blankets behind my drummer which resulted in a 12′ wide by 8′ tall section of the back wall being covered. The back wall was close to 18′ wide. The results were amazing — there were hardly any reflections on stage. This resulted in an improved PA sound, no feedback and a better performance for me and fellow musicians. I was running sound from the stage on that gig, the blankets made my job much easier which allowed me to focus more on playing then sound. The owner of the venue and routine customers heard the difference in my band’s sound quality which resulted in getting booked again. 🙂
My goal is to continue to test the Producers Choice acoustic blankets in a variety of live performance scenarios. I would love to be able to wrap a stage one gig — the entire back wall and two side walls.
Considering the cost of a single blanket, one could easily create an entire mobile acoustic treatment system that could be used in numerous live performance scenarios and not break the bank.
Q) Does fluffing acoustic blankets help to absorb sound better?
A) The difference might be marginal. But in theory, loose fiber would absorb sound better.
This is because in loose fiber each of the filaments have to be agitated individually, therefore more sound energy being spent on “shaking ” each individual fiber. In tightly pressed filler the fibers that are “stuck together” being agitated together as one — so less sound energy being spent and absorption would be less.
At the same time it is more difficult to vibrate heavier, larger fibers, than it is the lighter and shorter fibers. This is why the longer and denser fibers would absorb more of the lower frequency sound waves.

Do Producer’s Choice Acousic Blankets shrink after wash?
In this video we tested how much sound blankets shrink after wash. Producer’s Choice acoustic blankets shrink about 1-2 inches in length and width after the wash.
This happens because the blankets expand and get thicker.
This video also provides an interesting example of Producer’s choice acoustic blankets in action.
Most of the audio is done in an untreated environment of the Laundromat. The end summary was recorded using the same camera, but surrounded with Producer’s choice blankets.
There is a big difference in the quality of recording.

Recommendations on using Producer’s Choice acoustic Blankets: http://www.vocalboothtogo.com/vocal-b…
Q: I live near a major flight path and need to reduce noise coming through the bedroom window. I thought your blankets would be a great solution, but unfortunately, they are not quite wide enough. Would the blankets work in someway?
A) You could hang the sound blankets two side-by-side but the blankets will work somewhat. You should consider the soundproofer curtains.These curtains come in 48-inch max width.
Q: Do you recommend using Producer’s Choice Sound Blankets in a warehouse where a marching band rehearses?
A) Most definitely. Our Producer’s Choice brand of sound blankets have been tested and successfully used in acoustic treatment of recording studios and also used in large conference halls for special events. The blankets are easy to hang and easy to use. Here are tips when hanging sound blankets.

Rob Paulsen, VoxyLadies Gets A Closer Look At Vocal Booths During Robapalooza
VocalBoothToGo joined the VoxyLadies during Robapalooza, held at The National Press Club in Washington, DC, in early August to give voice over talent a chance to see and use the vocal booths during the event.
Hosted by the VoxyLadies, Robapalooza was a Voice Over Intensive workshop featuring Rob Paulsen, one of the VO industry’s top animation pros and an Emmy Award winner. Rob shared his expertise and insights with voice over actors from across the country.
During Robapalooza, VocalBoothToGo gave attendees an overview of the portable vocal booth, the Carry-on Vocal Booth Pro. However, the VocalBoothToGo product star was the 3 x 3 VocalBoothToGo Acoustic Vocal Booth, which received a thumbs-up from Rob.
“Your products are AMAZING!” Rob told VocalBoothToGo. “Thanks so much for helping out. The workshop would’ve been nothing without you. :-)”
