Well,
After nearly 2 years of building I am basically done.
Yes... I still need a good Chair!

The pics are awful but here goes:
I put one pic of the mix nook in Tracking Mode (panels down) and one in Mixing Mode (panels up).
There is a bad pic of the 7x7 vocal booth and one of the 10 x 11 drum booth. The main room is about 15 x 32 .

Very nice. I have a 900 sq ft studio and its nice to have alot of room. I use to mess in a 150 sq ft area. I like all the sound panels. I hope to build a few this winter and put them to use. Looks good.
 
Thanks Guys!

Bush,
This one is just under 900 sq/ft.
I really enjoy the room. I enjoy having a rest room and not traipsing through the house.
The rooms sound great... now I don't have any excuses about getting good sounds...except I can blame the musicians!

Harvey,
I still want very much to see your place. I've driven up your way on many a gig playing up in Denton, but lately I have not made it north of Haltom City.

I need to pick up a few Headphones when I do come!.

Kick ass Tom! I always envey the guys with lots of floor space. I dig the window covers for mix time. Great idea.
 
The window panels work good.
Even though the walls are splayed about 20 degrees each, there is a little smearing of the stereo field because of the reflective hard glass surface. It tightens up real nice with the panels up.

I got to do a rough mix this weekend on a Celtic Band I recorded and the rough quick mix sounds better than the ones I used to pour my life out over.

If anyone wants to hear I'll post in the MP3 clinic.

That's a great looking space Tom! I too am jealous of the open floor space.

I wish my control room had a window to the tracking room. Our basement isn't as open as your space, so i had to appropriate two separate rooms (tracking is 21x12 and the current control room is 9x13). once i move things out of the other room down there, i'll be moving the control room and it'll be more along the lines of 9x17. big enough to put a couple sofas, which will really make the clients happy.

cheers,
wade
 
Wade,
Thanks for looking.
There are times I wished I had a dedicated control room, but since I work alone, running from room to room all the time was a pain.
I have been putting most of the noise makers in the booths and having folks stand in the main room behind me listening to the monitors or headphones (whichever they want).

Thanks guys for the props!
After 2 years... I am really glad to be done!

veyr nice! you're lucky to have such a big room! that's a behringer desk isn't it?? what interface are you recording with?
 
What cafeteria DID you steal that chair from? ......... Just kiddin'........ Very nice looking space. The lack of clutter is refreshing!

Actually.
It is a Soundtracs Topaz Project 8.

As far as interface, right now I have (1) Lucid 9624AD and (1) Lucid 9624 DA plus (3) Delta 1010s slaved to a Lucid GenX6 Clock.
The Deltas are going away soon to be replaced with 2 RME ADI-8s and a RME 96/52 lightpipe card.

Thanks for asking!

he he!
I actually bought it from Wal Mart.
I need to get a rolling chair now.

The clutter is only days away I am afraid. It gets pretty bad when I am booked. I have to take a weekend every once and a while and shovel my way out.

Thanks!
Tom

does the topaz have an output for each separate channel?? and if so, do you run each output into the inputs on the delta and sync them all with the genx6 clock? why do you have to sync them? i'm kinda a noob with high end mixers and word clock:S
 
The Topaz board does indeed have direct outs on every channel.
But I primarily use the mixer for creating headphone and monitor mixes. I do track the drums through it ( like 11 channels) and direct them out the 8 submix outs to one of the delta cards. I have a few racks of stand alone pres I track through and monitor off the Deltas through the Topaz as well.
The reason for the Lucid clock is having several different interfaces that need a singular reference clock to tie them all together. There are other make shift ways of doing it, but for me the Lucid clock was the best and most straight forward way.
 
ok, so when you track vocals, you just run it through a mic pre then 1/4" outs and into the delta system?
 
Yes.
I plug mic into preamp and preamp into the Deltas (or Lucids).
The audio goes into the computer but also loops directly out to the Deltas outs which feed the mixer, and hence the headphone monitors.
 
what about playback? do you take an output of the delta and feed it into an input of your mixer?
