If this is a home and there is not an upstairs room - you
are in luck. You probably do not need to do much more.
A double layer of sheetrock is still best. Perhaps, instead
of a double layer, you can just floor the attic space
above the room and achieve good sound proofing. Noise
reduction should be sufficient, since you have an air
space and then a roof which provides additional sound
proofing.
If you have an upstairs room that
you need to isolate from the lower floor, there are additional
concerns. This
is a case of probably using resilient channels, Green Glue,
or other assorted sound proofing materials. This is
especially true if you do not want to hear the upstairs
footsteps, etc. There are several companies that can
help you with this type of sound proofing - at least
one or two are on the links page.
