[blparent] Drums and how to muffle them.

[Sean Paul]

I'm thinking about when we move next month & I have a room of my own which 
will be devoted intirely to my broadcast studio of purchasing either some 
old carpet for the walls or getting some old foam if we have a foam company 
around here which has some knock off peaces. Probably won't hang on all the 
walls, but at least the 2 closest to my broadcast setup. Apologies for 
straying off topic. I'm out now...
