I see these in a lot of John's (et al) designs. What's the material for these?

I found a local supplier of these materials. The rockwool sells for 66 cents per sq.ft. Seem like a pretty good price to me. I need 1400 sq.ft. Problem is, it comes in 2'x4' bats. My studs are 16" o.c. That means I could cut the 4' part into 3 16"x2' sections. Would the dis-continunity (for...

I couldn't resist posting this. This guy is standing on a 2X6 (5-1/2" wide). His head is probably around 18 feet in the air. (These are the roof trusses for my studio being installed.)

Hi all. Because my roof trusses, which are vaulted, would constitute a severe asymetry in the control room ceiling, I'm going to do an additional flat ceiling in the control room using wooden "I" beams as the primary ceiling support structure. I was thinking of enhancing this by doing what is...

John, on your site, the "Studios Under Construction" part, you have Joe Egan's Studio on there. Is this the same Joe Egan of "Stuck in the Middle With You", fame??

What do you drummers think of the Zildian "A" Cymbals? (For crash and ride)

We got a lot done this weekend. Out of a 140 foot perimeter, I have only 12 feet of exterior wall left to do. Then its on to the trusses.

I managed to get about 85% of the exterior walls erected today. It was a lot of progress! After the past few weeks of being nearly idle, due to the weather, today was good. I tell you one thing: 10' high is a lot more than 10' long! The walls look SO much bigger up in the air than they do...

I have a pair of Audix 35102 preamps w/ EQ. It has the exact same EQ frequency points as a Neve 33114. Will the 2 pre's sound nearly identical? I'm not sure if they use the same transformers, I think they do. Also, the Neve 33114 is a class A/B, and I think the Audix's are pure class A. If...

Is there an analog primer on-line somewhere that could give a really good introduction into tape machine maintanence? I think, at some point, I'd like to offer 2" analog, but I am completely in the dark as far as maintanence, calibration, etc... Any 2" machines to stay away from? What to look...

What do you think of these?

Why is it that you never see art work, like framed pictures on the walls in studios?

I'm looking for a history lesson. Can someone offer an explaination of the cronological relationship of these three names?

They are big, and heavy (well sort of), and there's a lot of 'em! I had a bad cold last weekend, so I didn't get ANY framing done. The weekend before that was cold, wet and rainy.:mad: I'm behind my self imposed schedual on the framing, but, thats the way it goes I guess. Hopefully we'll make...

I didn't know where else to put this, but it sort of has to do with "Studio Building". What musical instruments do you have/make available to clientiel at your studio. Let me state what I plan to make available: 7"-2" Boston Semi Concert Grand Tama Star Classic Drum Kit w/ Zildian "A"...

Is ANYONE here using these pre's: After you get the powered rack, the $550/chnl price point seems like a no brainer for this classic pre, and you can build a rack full of them over time.

I average about 500 downloads per month of the music on my web-site at IUMA. Should I offer a CD for sale?

For those of you that havent seen it before, there's a floor plan for my new 1200 sq. ft. studio here: https://homerecording.com/bbs/showthread.php?threadid=68125 I spent Sat. morning ripping out the last of the forms for the cable chases. Then I snapped chalk lines for the exterior walls...

I don't have any new pictures to post, but I thought I'd post an update anyway. Weather and inspections had delayed the pouring of the concrete slab for my studio. I couldn't do anything about the weather. The building inspector had demanded plans for an "engineered" foundation for the...

I have a pair of Audix 35102 pre-amps with eq, and I thought I'd look around for another pair, so I do a search on google, and my old IUMA web site shows up! Now there's nothing in text about these pres on my site, but there is a picture of them. I thought it was interesting that my web-site...
