When you're completely immersed in your game, it is easy to forget about the world around you. There's nothing worse than suddenly being pulled out of this state due to loud outside noises or annoyed parents, roommates, or neighbors asking you to be quiet. This is why all gamers need to think about soundproofing their rooms to maximize their gaming time without worrying about interruptions.

Although there is the option of lowering your games sound, it's essential to keep the volume of the game turned up so you can have the ultimate gaming experience and be able to hear the character voice lines, soundtrack, and sound effects without dreading that the rest of the world can hear it all too.

LightEFX provides 3 simple solutions to help you soundproof your gaming room.

1. Acoustic Foam Panels

One of the most popular ways to soundproof your room is using acoustic foam panels. These are easy to install as it's as simple as using double-sided tape to stick them to your walls and ceilings. The acoustic foam panels then work by trapping sound and bouncing it around repeatedly until the sound is gone and has lost all of its energy.

For an added bonus, LightEFX offers the 'StarEFX™ Starlight Acoustic Foam Panels Kit' so you can enhance the sound acoustics of your gaming room and create your own designs on the acoustic foam panels. These designs could be a galaxy of stars, you could make the outline of your favorite character, or write your Gamertag in starlights. This Kit is perfect for tying your acoustic foam panels into the theme of your room, as you have complete design control to create whatever you want.

2. StarEFX™ Modular Panels

The StarEFX™ Modular Panel is made of an absorbent polyester material lined with a black felt face to dampen the low sound frequencies while reflecting the higher ones. Adding acoustic panels improves the gaming room's acoustics and provides sound insulation inside the room to reduce noise interference with the surrounding environment.

The modular panels come with starlights already installed. The starlights have a shimmering and color-changing effect that can be controlled by a wireless remote, creating an amazing atmosphere for all types of gaming rooms.

3. StarEFX™ Integrated Ceilings

StarEFX™ Integrated Ceilings are made from the same absorbent fiberglass material as the Modular Panels. The main difference is that these panels can be programmed into your automated home system and have animations. So if you want your room to have high-quality sound absorption and want to impress your friends, this is the way to go!

With a choice of six StarEFX™ colors, you can leave it on one color, have the colors cycle through, or select the white stars for a more realistic night setting. In addition, the light intensity can be dimmed or brightened so it does not interfere with your gaming experience. Home automation integration allows a lighting sequence to be set for dimming when the gaming begins and returns the StarEFX™ ceiling to its default settings after your gaming session ends.

Aside from twinkling lights and vibrant colors, shooting stars will be the crowning touch that will make it an enchanting ceilingscape! The shooting stars are scattered in various areas of the ceiling and are activated at random. Perfect for a gaming setup in a bedroom after a long gaming night, watching the stars above you is the most relaxing and calming way to fall asleep.
