ideal soundproofing materials.

[tom2991]

i'm currently in the process of tearing out the pieces of an old caravan, to convert it into a sort of bedroom/home studio.
tomorrow, i'm gonna be tearing through the walls and whatnot, in preparation for getting them replaced.
i was thinking convoluted foam, but i figured i'd run the idea by people first, in case it's not a fantastic idea, or at not as fantastic as other materials.

anyone care to share their opinions?
thanks.

If you are cheap use egg cartons, foam will also do nicely

Foam works good (preferably acoustic foam like these: http://www.music4less.net/4less/studiofoam1.htm http://www.audimutesoundproofing.com...roof-foam.aspx ). Hanging old rugs and/or carpets on the walls works pretty well too. There is also this thick, blanket-like padded fabric that you are supposed to nail to walls. I don't remember what it's called, but I helped my brother put it up in a small studio room and it worked pretty well.

I've never had much luck with the egg carton thing.
