Floor Joist Bass Traps

67.59.61.220

In continuing the two channel listening room/recreation room in my basement I am considering ceiling treatments. I am leaving the ceiling of the basement unfinished with first floor, joists exposed. Would packing the first two cavities between the joists at the front wall of the room with roll insulation be an effective treatment,if it is packed to the correct density. If so, how many layers should I pack into the cavities if the dimensions are 15" wide by 9" deep?

Any help is greatly appreciated
