    buying a pre-built building to finish as a home studio

    Hi Rob, I get it and that sound advice, no pun intended. Should the walls slant in to the listening position or out? I would think in, but I'm not sure. To clarify, If the side walls at the corners of my listening position are 13ft. 8in. then at the back of the room they should be something...

    buying a pre-built building to finish as a home studio

    The building is a wooden building of course. The siding is LP Smart Side with 2x4 studs on 16oc. I upgraded the flooring package from the normal 5/8 with 16oc joist to a 3/4" with 12"oc joist. I'm also opting for the architectural shingles instead of a metal roof. I'm very lucky in a couple of...

    buying a pre-built building to finish as a home studio

    Hey folks, After having our small home studio in a bedroom, which was 11ft. x 12ft. and could never get sounding quite right, not to mention feeling rather small with all the equipment inside it, we moved it in to the bonus room above our garage. It is a 13.5ft. x26ft. room and we have got it...

    Confusion about formats and software to burn to cd

    Hi and good morning. Thanks for that. I just purchased Wavelab last week. Haven't had a chance to check it out yet though. I'm totally blind, so I'll need to see if the program is even accessible via a screen reader before even trying to use and learn it.

    acoustic treatment for a 10x10x8 bedroom

    I think I'd ike to add that DIYing isn't that hard though. I'm totally blind and built all my treatment my self. Wall absorbers, corner traps and sofit traps. If I can do it, heck any one can.

    Creative Sound Blaster ZxR PCIe Sound Card - $200.00

    Creative Sound Blaster ZxR PCIe Sound Card Received this card as a gift a couple of months ago. My kids thought it be a great addition to my home studio. I admit the thing does sound very very good, but just don't need it, and could use the money more, so I'm letting it go at a great price...

    Confusion about formats and software to burn to cd

    I eventually want to record a professional created project, from pro studio, to mastering, and finally proper replication. However for now I'm wanting to sell cds at my shows that I've recorded here in my home studio. I've recorded my tracks in Sonar at 24bit 96K, and have used Nero to burn them...

    OKAY, looking for input on new monitors purchase.

    I bought a pair of JBL LSR308s a few weeks ago and absolutely love them. I have an older Fostex 2.1 system so didn't bother with buying a sub, and am just as happy that I didn't. The JBLs have plenty of bottom end to do most stuff with. Granted, I don't do hiphop, edm or any rediculously bassy...

    The blind Build - treating my space

    Interesting. Maybe I should use the rigid for wall absorbers and maybe build a couple of gobles, and use the fluffy stuff I have for the corner traps. I can have my wife sew some bags to place it in so I could easily hang it from the frames to help keep it from sagging.
