I'm afraid to ask what the hammer is for on your desk.

I'm assuming to beat clients.

Game of checkers or chess anyone?

The hammer scared me too! With the last pic so blurry, can't tell what you have exactly.

Looks like its coming together great. Keep us posted

The hammer is clearly for convincing Windows XP to operate properly.

Studio's looking good Pico... Looks like you mixed and match foam styles... is that perception correct? Was that part of the tuning?

[picostudios]

Duh, if the computer acts up on me, I give it a good whoopin. Nah, the hammer was used to put up the foam. I tried to use double sided tape, but it wasn't working, so I had to use tiny nails. Sorry for the blurry photo, I took these pretty quickly. I am working on getting more foam, and possibly some movers blankets. for the space between the control room and the hallway. I lack a door cause it's supposed to be a study room. It still need ALOT of work done, I'm recording some bands pretty soon, so that will bring more income so that I may save to buy more equip. Thanks for the input.

You're off to a good start - my other post was just a little kidding.

Your Alesis Monitors are backwards. The tweeters should be on the inside of the setup.

Uh, no they shouldn't.

Regarding tweeters.....

bass frequencies, are fairly nondirectional, essentially spilling out like water out of an open pipe. High frequencies are much more directional, therefore putting the tweeters further out than the woofers, facilitate a better stereo image.

He has his monitors vertical anyway, so we're talking about 2" of axis misalignment, certainly not a major issue. If he turned them sideways, then it would make more of a difference.

[picostudios]

So then, I should have them sideways?

Looks like they recommend placing the tweeters inside either way. I'd try it and see if it makes a difference in how your mixes sound. Can't hurt to try anyway.
