Treating my Control room

Here’s a 3D model of my control room. It’s in my attic so you can see the pitched roof (with skylights) and a 4 ft knee wall. The room dimensions are 19’l x 12’w x 7’h. The floor is carpeted. The ceiling is plaster. I have access to 2” insulation with nearly identical SAC as OC 705. The corner traps (yellow) will be based on the ones described here: http://www.ethanwiner.com/acoustics.html

The rest (orange) will be like these:

The problem in this room has been muddy mixes. I have had to compensate by eq’ing out low mids. I hope this helps and welcome any suggestions with respect to number, placement and type of trap.

In general, you'd be better off turning the room 90 degrees so the monitors are firing down the long dimension.

Why? My head's in the same place with respect to the monitors and sound treatment is designed to eliminate standing waves. If I can cut down on those won't I be better off than I am now?
