This is as ghetto a room as it gets, but its the start of my studio:

Looks like it's a nice sized space though - lots of options.

yeah but I'll be moving out within the next year or two, so I almost don't want to do any acoustic treatment now, or just do something extreamly temporary or portable, like maybe some homemade gobos or something.

[TexRoadkill]

At least you have plenty of diffusion.

It depends on what you know. It's a general focus on recording. There's a lot more stuff than say, "Home Recording for Dummies". It was meant to give you a general understanding of the technical aspect of recording, and how the equipment does what it does. I found it very useful, especially the chapter on analog equipment. It basically helped ground me on many things that confused me (time code, noise reduction, etc.). I recommend it as a reference book if you can find it cheap.

yeah, same here. i've learnt everything i, ahem, "know" off the internet, and while that's been great, and allowed me to muck around and experiment alot, it's meant that i've had a lot of holes in even my most basic understanding of what's going on when i'm recording.

basically, i hate reading off websites for a long time - wikipedia or similar is my idea of hell so to have it all layed out in a very 'educational' manner was very helpful. i only truly "got" phase issues and related problems from that book i think. and it made me want a reel to reel, which is always good

woah forgot I made this thread.....I'm building gobos right now, 3 large ones for the drums as well as smaller ones for the amps. As I said, I don't want to do anything more permanent until I move out.

I Love it. Sounds great. Even when recording a very basic two vocals + one piano piece, it sounds great.

Yep, I have 2001's. Great set.

Sweet. My first good bass amp. And I still have it! No BW in mine, though...
