ive never had a chance to mess with one, but i am strongly considering seeking one of these out, or simply building one myself with one of several extra speakers i have. very often i will only close mic, especially with dirty stuff, so taking the room out of equation isnt a huge deal, or at least it doesnt *seem* to be a huge deal. how well do they work? obviously, there is no way that it will be able to contain ALL of the sound, but can you, say, monitor in the same room as one? or have it in the room while tracking something else?
my iso "booth" is really little more than a glorified closet with sound absorption. it works *ok*--- sounds kind of like the amp is upstairs and coming through the floor when it is cranking. i can monitor over the speakers while recording, but it isnt a true representation, as i can still hear the cabinet a little, especially the lowest frequencies. if i dont go crazy with the volume, i can also track, say, drums with very little bleed save for rooms mics, etc, but it is far from perfect. i could never isolate an acoustic guitar enough to track, for example. save for the iso closet, my room is one big space, with no division between control and tracking areas. blah blah blah.
has anyone seen any plans for one of these on the net somewhere?
