Almost Done!
Howdy folks- well, the control room is complete and we are gathering materials for the booths today. I have no idea when they will be completed, but hopefully within a month. When you run out of money, you got to put things on hold! Thanks to our sweet bonus at my day job, I can finally complete this thing ONCE AND FOR ALL! I'll post some pics of what we have done, and get you all some before pics of the little closet I call an audio booth.
BTW Fitz, do you have any last minute suggestions on what I can do to the booth before we go at it? We doubled the drywall on the control room side, and are doubling the drywall all the way around on the inside of the booth. We are putting another piece of plywood over the existing plywood subfloor to add more mass, possibly use OSB, and will be putting carpet on the floor and the walls when it is completed to help quite things down (there is not much room inside). Drywall is packed in between the studs like you suggested. Underneath the building (if you remember it is one of those not-so portable buildings) we installed faced rigid fiberglass in between the floor joists, and even are going with the solid door like you suggested leading into the booth. The only thing I decided to do differently than my original plan was instead of having TWO 6 x 8 rooms, I decided to leave it all open for a 6 x 16 room. If I had it to do over again, I would have made it wider, but whats done is done... Finally, we are adding two sheets of 3/8 glass at dimensions 3' x 8', one being offset on the inner side (angle) Any new suggestions will be greatly appreciated, and I will post pics in a couple days on our progress!
