Without getting all bogged down with measurements and perhaps too specific with the treatments, you can achieve some pretty decent results with a basic overall approach, as outlined in the various acoustic treatment notes I have put out over the years. Some of the URL's may be out of date, but a Google search for
Jon Risch DIY wall panels
or
Jon Risch DIY bass traps
will usually find you some pages with one persons version of how they implemented my basic designs.

The original DIY Acoustic Treatment Note:
http://www.audioasylum.com/audio/tweaks/messages/17/174817.html

The above includes a section on bass traps, these are rather involved for a simple DIY approach, so I include some info at the bottom here for the Quick & Dirty bass traps, the easiest to make and cover.

the original post where I reveal the latest Super Quick & Dirty easy bass traps recipe:

and petew's post where he goes into detail on what he did.
http://www.AudioAsylum.com/audio/general/messages/70817.html

These are by far the best bang for the buck bass traps (and easy to make too!), and will outperform almost ANY of the wall panels that some folks call "bass traps".
