Often the best solution is a combination of the two methods.
As for home recording, if it is not possible to buy special materials to improve the acoustics of the room, you can use everyday items (clothes hanger, blankets, mattresses, etc.).
This is, of course, an unprofessional solution - but it still allows you to slightly improve the acoustics of the room, which means that this is also a solution.
To record musical instruments, speech and vocals, it is not at all necessary to drown out the room completely. The presence of reverberation in the recording is perceived naturally, and if you record for yourself (that is, it does not mean that someone else will artificially add reverb later), then you need to decide for yourself whether the current acoustics of the room suits you. When damping a room, it is important that all frequencies are equally damped (not just a certain frequency range).
The placement of sound absorption elements and their choice is a separate issue. To get high-quality sound recording at home, you just need to think about improving the acoustics of the room so that there are no unnecessary overtones and too many / few reflections in it.
Quality sound recording
Of course, you will need a program to work with records. Usually this is one of the sound editors (Adobe audition, audacity, Sound forge, wavelab). However, if you wish, you can use the built-in audio editors prof. sequencers (cubase, logic, etc.).
After studying the opinions of experts and testing it myself, I prefer to use sound editors, in particular adobe audition, since they have much more noise control tools. So, a simple but effective way of basic recording processing in the adobe audition program:
First you need to make a record and open it in the program. Next, a section of the recording is searched for, in which there is nothing but background noise. The desired area is selected and the following command is set in the main menu: Effects-Noise reduction - Noise reduction
