What flooring will you have in the studio?
As an electrician by profession, I've worked on some cinemas and a studio and am a bit curious
In the projects I've been involved with, they usually screw-glue a couple of layers of some form of cement-based chipboard that rests on rubber mounts with insulation in between. Of course, with an air gap against the slab.
Then the inner wall frame sits on top of this. And the ceiling is suspended with rubber hangers.
And it usually involves a lot of acoustic sealant
And I've seen some "extreme" measures for otherwise simple electrical and ventilation implementations. All to avoid "short-circuiting" the inner and outer construction.
By the way, I vote for mexitegel's proposal above to answer the thread question.

what's mexitegel's deal that you're wondering? thought it was that you wanted it tight between the rules.
you can also set a sheet angle

Hey! The floor will be one of two solutions with joists on rubber mounts. One more expensive, one more affordable. I am weighing the pros and cons against each other, along with the budget and the actual requirements I need to meet (based on my own needs).Bloink said:What kind of floor are you planning for the studio?
As an electrician by trade, I've worked on quite a few theaters and a studio or two, so I'm a bit curious

The ceiling will be free-standing on joists placed on the floating floor. That's the plan for now at least.
Why not use sound battens as SBH suggests and not attach anything at all to existing battens and walls?
that was the problem of getting discs there after the stud was mounted on an old stud.
a screw stud (or two) was missing
