Matching panels to people, not just numbers

Acoustic treatment isn’t one-size-fits-all. Different creatives, roles, and rooms produce very different sound profiles — and the right panel depends on what kind of energy you’re trying to shape.

Here’s a breakdown of who you are, what you make, and where your sound lives:

Podcasters & Voice Artists

  • Frequency focus: 100Hz – 3kHz

  • Key challenges: Boxiness, echo, nasal mids

  • Panel needs: Strong mids control, soft touch on highs

  • Tip: A warm curve is your friend. Too flat can sound sterile.

Producers & Beatmakers

  • Genres: Trap, EDM, ambient, hip-hop

  • Frequency focus: 40Hz – 8kHz

  • Key challenges: Bass buildup, harsh transients

  • Panel needs: Modular bass traps, smooth high-end diffusion

  • Tip: Stack thickness if your kicks vanish or smear.

Musicians & Instrumentalists

  • Frequency varies:

Acoustic guitar: 100Hz–5kHz

Piano: 27Hz–4kHz

Horns: 300Hz–6kHz

Strings: 200Hz–4kHz

  • Panel needs: Balanced absorption + some lively reflection

  • Tip: Too much absorption can kill your tone — preserve the soul.

Streamers & Gamers

  • Frequency mix: Speech + intense FX (80Hz–10kHz)

  • Key challenges: Room echo, mic bleed, rumble

  • Panel needs: Quick-response midrange control, simple setup

  • Tip: Keep the vibe clean, not dead. Echo reduction > full absorption.

Therapists & Mindfulness Rooms

  • Frequency focus: 200Hz – 2kHz (relaxing tones, ambient music, voice)

  • Key goals: Softness, tranquility, non-reverberant warmth

  • Panel needs: Gentle full-spectrum absorption

  • Tip: Panels with texture and diffusion feel more natural, less clinical.

DIY Audiophiles / Tinkerers

  • Use case: Custom home setups, hi-fi listening

  • Frequency focus: Depends on gear & taste

  • Panel needs: Precision and tweakability

  • Tip: Start with mid-bass control and adjust — your ears will know.

TL;DR

You don’t just need a good NRC value — you need the right frequency response for the sounds you care about. It’s like EQing your space to match your voice, your music, or your vibe.
