What is sound? How are it frequencies transmitted.
Do different density of materials transfer the same frequencies?
How is it affected by distance , separation or
density ( Mass ) of materials.

for walls its a composite material , rockwool was very popular once , then kingspan which insulates sound and heat.

The key to soundproofing lies in making sure the opposing walls share no sound conduit. Alternate studs to leave an airspace between the stud and the opposing wall.

Sound proofing more or less is space. In a recording studio, doors and walls are very thick, and glass is double paned. In a home studio enviroment, hanging carpet or cloth, or even egg carton material will prevent sound from escaping a space.
