Acoustic Treatment Installation
Two left hands?
If you buy acoustic treatment from us and are based in Berlin, you have the option of having your installation organised by us, and performed by an affiliated company. Quite simply they will rock up and install the elements for you in your space. Installations can be organised via info@kissyourears.com.
If you are on a tight deadline, we can arrange for your installation to be expedited for a small fee and the affiliated company will throw more human power at your install to have it completed extremely quickly. For example, 4 technicians onsite can install an average of 8 units per hour - so an entire 20m² mixing suite with 24 bass traps can be installed in 3 hours with the express service. The standard service is 2 technicians taking care of 4 bass traps per hour.
If you are not in Berlin, it’s probably better to just email us about how to safely install them yourself or with the help of someone else. We have all of the resources needed to guide you safely through your DIY installation, no matter where you are in Europe.
Acoustic Planning
Don't know where to put your acoustic elements? Or how many you need?
We can also help you with anything from detailed theoretical planning of high end projects to simple rules of thumb regarding setting up a standard cuboid room with the first baby-steps acoustic treatment purchase of your career.
The cool part is we do not charge for this! It is part of our ethos, and exactly how we will achieve our mission of making our music production environments sound better across the board. We choose innovation over conservatism and take great pleasure in over-delivering in value with every purchase.
We do the first stages of your acoustic planning by proxy, so as to maximise efficiency. We always ask for 3 things first, to begin to evaluate your situation:
- Floor plan sketch w/ measurements.
- Pics of the space.
- Budget for the project.
Email info@kissyourears.com with details of your project to activate our acoustics wizard. Bear in mind that our approach is always to get you the best bang for your buck, so we really do not entertain experiments. We have research and extensive experience to draw from and always look for the most efficient solution.
Onsite Consultation & Measurement Survey
Feeling lonely? Want us to visit you? Hold your horses. We’ll get to that bit…
Normally, for acoustic treatment, we can actually predict your ideal solution by acoustic modelling, as well as good old experience. We perform acoustic measurements on site as part of our installation service (below).
If you really MUST have the “A” (of the A/B) measurements performed onsite beforehand, we can arrange this for you but our advice is that this is an inefficient approach. We also provide resources for you to do a professional preliminary measurement yourselves.
Email info@kissyourears.com to arrange this.
Isolation Construction Projects (Architectural Acoustics)
Neighbours banging on the wall when you’re making bangin’ beats?
Thinking of building your dream studio... Room within a room? Wondering if a different (less expensive) type of isolation shell would work in your situation?
We can organise projects building contemporary music studios and have an extensive network of construction resources (and experienced, trustworthy contacts).
Email admin@kissyourears.com with details of your project and to arrange a meeting to discuss your options.
It should be noted that any call outs for architectural acoustics come with a fee, 240eur netto flat rate. This higher rate reflects what is a very high value consultation that determines the direction of a construction project, and often saves thousands of euros.
Music Production Studio Spaces to Rent w/ Safe Long Term Contracts
High quality studios for contemporary music makers at affordable prices.
Since we first set out to make quality acoustic treatment more affordable, we ended up visiting every imaginable set-up in Berlin, and needless to say, we got a bit bored of the crusty old ex-office spaces or dingy basements that were on offer…
Really, we could not fathom how landlords thought this was a place where anyone could connect with their creative practise. Furthermore, many of those crusty old buildings are closing their doors.
We decided to organise the construction of isolated and acoustically optimised music production studios by an affiliated company. We currently let 69 isolated and acoustically treated studios, with great infrastructure, long term contracts, a 10,000m² garden and, most importantly, a solid community spirit.
These rooms are high-end - for producers, mixing engineers, mastering engineers, etc, and are at a similar price point to the less inviting studio spaces around the city.
Email ineedamusicstudio@gmail.com to enquire about availability of bespoke music studios.
