Default Sound insulation with soft strips?

Hi,

I have posted a sound insulation question before a received a lot of
useful information.

I would like to revisit it one more time. I'm trying to sound insulate a
second floor bedroom from the kitchen directly below it. The bedroom has
3/4 pine nailed directly to the joists.

So I'd like to ask a very specific question. Is there some kind of soft
material that I can add to the kitchen ceiling joists as strips that will
absorb acoustic energy and therefore act as sound insulation (at the same
time not affect the structural integrity of the ceiling drywall.

Many thanks in advance,

Sam


As you was told the last time you asked there are no magic simple
answers...Adding soft strips of cloth or caulking will do nothing....I'm
sure others will re-post the same answers as before and they were good ones
but I'm not gonna bother...You already know the answers....You just don't
want to do the work....HTH...
