Hi all! I am trying to record guitar and vocals in a 16 X 10 X 8ft space but the results are not what I am looking for.... yet. I want to invest some cash into the room to make it professional sounding but not sure what it needs. Given the dimensions, I am not really thinking a "live" space is worth going for but perhaps a dead booth type room will sound good. I actually prefer the sound of dry acoustic guitar recordings and vocals too so I think absorption is the best way to go.
The room was a control room so it has a cloud installed which covers the 1st half of the room hanging from the ceiling so I could track beneath the cloud which would help with reflections from the ceiling. When it comes to the walls though, I am not sure what to do. I was thinking 2 sheets of rigid fiberglass all around but would really appreciate any advice. I have a laminate wooden floor so I guess that is fine if the walls and ceiling is treated? I kind of see this space as a dead booth but slightly bigger which is always a good thing.
So can you guys help me out? What can I do? What would you do?
I have attached pics of the space so you can see it so far. Basically was wanting to mix but I won't be mixing my own stuff and just need it recorded well.
