Dear friend,
One guy I knew of bought those mattresses used by hospitals. They are the sort with the egg shell pattern along a thin, foam length. He had it set up in his basement. He had an air shaft so warm air would exit by way of a basement window. He could close his door and record with less disturbance. I am poor and live in a tiny, rented house on the ocean cove. I constantly have freaking light traffic along this area. I never, ever get a quiet moment. I often go to the beach to simply be alone.
At my other house I recorded at night time. It was deadly quiet. As I need move, from time to time, I cannot get a change to set up a permanent studio. Your idea sounds totally awesome. Go for it. I am sure you can make better files than I am, at the moment.
I often added subliminal messages in the background. I would place that within a sound track featuring nature sounds. Other times I had piano music. Sadly, my files are simply not as good as some of the heavy weights on this site. I know Saranoga and EMG are way, way beyond my league, for example.
Sincerely,
Haxsaw
