Hmmm.... Wallace Sabine & the plaster statues might be a little out of my practice room budget. I think I'll just knock holes in the wall & put in a dozen or so bobble head figurines. Everytime I want positive feedback for my playing, I'll just blast out a Mega Fortissississimo E ... and I'm sure all my little bobble head friends will oblige me with multiple nods of approval.
Val ********* This is caused by standing waves between the parallel walls of your practice room. Wallace Sabine, though not a horn player, hit on an ingenious solution. Get a builder make niches recessed into the the walls, into which you place large statues. (Hint: plaster statues work just as well as pricey marble ones.) These will scatter and diffuse the sound effectively, preventing the buildup of those pesky standing waves. Try it! You'll be amazed at the results.
