I am looking for ways to keep my voice and conversation from carrying to other rooms in a house.<p>When I am working remotely, I feel uncomfortable having my work conversations carry across the house. My doors and walls aren't the greatest. Is there anything that can inject white noise (in a directional way ) so that my conversation is muffled for everyone else in the house.
You could use the empty egg cartons to cover your walls, creating (eventually) an anechoic chamber!
Do a search for --> anechoic +DIY
That will present you with LOTS of ideas.
Even using heavy drapes/curtains/carpet COVERING 2 of the 4 walls (NOT opposites) should give a good result.
Introducing acoustic absorption to the room like an anechoic chamber isn’t going to do much for sound isolation. If you want to prevent sound getting out you should seal up your room to make it as airtight as possible. This usually means sewing up the weak points such as gaps around doors / windows. You can also introduce more background noise in the areas where you don’t want others to listen but ultimately you might not have control over those spaces
I use this for sleep, maybe could put outside your door.<p><a href="https://www.walmart.com/ip/LectroFan-Sound-Machine/45825724?irgwc=1&sourceid=imp_QY80b5TKMxyJWbtwUx0Mo34VUki0DHxWuQ6VTo0&veh=aff&wmlspartner=imp_197432&clickid=QY80b5TKMxyJWbtwUx0Mo34VUki0DHxWuQ6VTo0" rel="nofollow">https://www.walmart.com/ip/LectroFan-Sound-Machine/45825724?...</a>
