There's quite a bit of info in the Studio Building and Display forum. But the key things you'll probably focus on are: Don't build a square booth or dimensions that are 1 x 1 1/2 (4x6, 5x10, for example). If possible, don't build parallel walls. There are a couple of wall designs you can...

The thing with a booth is that it may solve some problems but create others if not designed and built correctly. What in your present environment are you're trying to fix?

Fan rumble The thing that jumps out to me is, "how will you mount the baffle to the booth, and how will you mount the fan to the baffle?" My point here is that if you attach the baffle directly to the booth, with the fan mounted on the baffle, then there's a risk that vibration from the fan...

Way to go Hart! It's looking good. Good luck with the ventilation.

I had the same scenerio ( a voice over booth). I set up my system like this. 1) PIII 650 sitting right outside the booth. I ran a USB cable and VGA cable through a larger hole in the side. I then took a piece of 4"x"4" piece of MDF, cut it in half, clamped the halves back together and...

Samples Are you voicing and producing, too? What's the room like where you mix and master? Does it have any acoustic treatment? What kind of monitors are you using? You've got a lot in that chain. I have to wonder if maybe something in the mixing, mastering, and tweaking process may be...

Excellent Way to go!

Ditto on what Rick said - buy Rod's book. It's great.

Very nice work, though, it was quite painful to imagine hammering all those stringers, let alone the framining. May the gods of Pneumatic Tools smile upon your future efforts and deliver you nice framing and finishing nail guns.

A couple years later I notice this post still gets some hits, and, judging from the stats on my web site, people are following the link to the page about the booth I built a couple years ago. I just reread what I wrote back then. If you are looking for input on building a booth, there are a...

I'm using an Aphex Expressor (651 - the older model) for voice work. The RNC is good, too.

I was wondering if corner bass traps need to be 2' feet wide for a reason. I was planning on building some, then I got to wondering if I could make them one foot wide. I've got some 2" OC 703 that I thought I would slice down the middle, lengthwise, then lay one on top of the other which would...

Add a Gefell to that list Check out the Gefell M930, too.

I'm with ya on the Gefell. It's a great mic for VO. I would like to try a Peluso 2247 one of these days and see how it does on voice work. Another 'find' was an old EV 642 shotgun. I picked one up on eBay and it sounds very good.

Here's the word from BradleyBroadcast.com: Use the Handi-Coupler on remotes and around the station: on-air, production, the newsroom, the sales office, and in the sports kit. The HC-1 connects in series with the handset of any telephone using modular connectors. Please note: This is not a...
