Sound board is fairly effective. When I was in college, they had little practice rooms lined with acoustic sound board where you could practice your horn. Could hardly hear anything as you walked by, and there was a glass in the door. Think you would like the cellulose, if you used the glue that keeps it from settling. My nephew used blue denim insulation he bought at Menards to insulate between his upstairs and basement. Kids have rooms in daylight basement. Pretty effective.
