Ok, I am going to be putting together a studio in my basement this summer. It is currently a 1-bedroom apartment (hence, why I can't put it together until this summer, as there is currently a tenant in there) and is not ideally setup for a studio. So, I have a couple options and I have drawn up some diagrams of possible layouts.
First I have attached what the apartment currently looks like. The only measurements that are not included are ceiling height, which is 6.5’ for the most part, except for a couple small sections (one in the bedroom) that are 6’. Also, the doors to the closet are going to have to be replaced, as they have the vented slots in them. I realize that this setup is going to be less then perfect, but I think I can get a pretty good sound out of it with the right setup. I will be recording drums in the live room, so this has to be considered into the layout.
For reference, I plan on doing mostly live recording. I plan to have a computer-based setup. I will be using:
· N-tracks
· RME Multiface
· Sytek MPX-4aii Pre
· Yorkville YSM1p's
Mics:
· AT 4050
· Seinheiser MD421 II
· Oktava MC012 (2)
· SM57’s
· AKG D-112
