Temporary Sound Treatment to Muffle Loud People Next Door

My neighbors sometimes rent their house Airbnb style, and recently the tenants were very loud on their back deck.

So I temporarily plugged the window facing their house and it worked!

Complete hack job, but there’s nothing more annoying to be working in your studio and hearing people shout and laugh, etc.

How did I do it? I have various leftover foam so I just filled the window opening, which is a good 16” deep, with foam and held it in place with an old lighting stand.

“Someday” I will have a REAL studio! (A guy can dream, anyway…)

Have you ever done a temporary hack job like this?
