in some testing I did a couple of years back with my folded poly board a sound absorbing barrier like a cedar tree or even a "<" shape with the greater end a couple of feet away from the open end does help to knock sound down from that direction as well.
Yep. Anything that makes the sound turn a corner helps. An absorbent material there helps more yet.
I do think one of the things that is making the GenTent work so well is the AZDEL used in the panels. It is advertised as a sound and energy absorbing material which, apparently, it is.
Have you seen any STC or NRC figures on it? My cheapie Soundstop board is not very durable, so this might be a good substitute. I like their idea of slipping it into a double wall tent. Maybe I will sew up a hoghouse and slip the Soundstop in it. A waterproof material would save the absorbent Soundstop from the rain.
