A studio here in town has a control room that is about that, I think. Maybe a bit bigger. You'd have to REALLY deaden the back walls at all freqs so that sound bouncing back won't reach the wrong ear, as I understand it....

And get out the tape measure and post some measurements (or did you do that and I am just missing it....?) I mean, I see that it is a 22 foot ceiling (what I wouldn't give to have that "problem" (my proposed new studio space is barely 6 1/2 feet (yuck) but what I kinda dimensions are we talking?

Silly me. I reminded myself... I just got off the phone with my crack dealer^W^Wmusic dealer and ordered the Apex and asked for an AKG419 to be brought in so I can try it out and see if I like it. In my defense, I really am buying the AKG for my fiancee to use in live performances, not for my...

I think it is too easy to get wrapped up in things like perfecting the studio or buying new toys and forgetting to actually use them. So... for me, no more toy buying until I've got something to show for what I have. Well, after that second Apex420 and new trumpet mic........

Ok... so generally those Virtual Analog Organs and things, those work? That's pretty rocking. Do they show up as a track that can be recorded? Or what? Thanks...

Cool. Anyone with any experience?

Cool. I'll probably be doing some varient of that, but in a basement eventually. Unless, of course, I just end up spending all my time making the house all prettied up, sell it, and buy a place with enough room for a REAL studio :) Yeah, yeah, maybe that's what I'll do. You guys are a bunch...

Since I'm almost at "Senior Member" I gotta learn quick to match my soon-to-be Senior Status :D

John/Sjoko2 Is my suggestion a reasonable way of going at it? Ie, insulating the single walls all the way around, then sound treating them? Then if you end up with the bucks for a seperate control room (and I would recommend the control room over the iso booth - I would LOVE to be able to...

Is this possible? I know N-Track uses VST plugins, but is that just effects? Can you use a VST virtual synth?

Hi, all As many of you may know, I've got a basic bedroom studio with an Auralex sound treatment and it has been working great. Now, however, my fiancee's jazz instructor has been getting her to do schwartzendos (sp?) which is basically a very loud accent on the note. When I say very loud, I...

Being a cheap bastard, I've been using Noteworthy Composer (much cheaper then Finale) which has been doing what I need, but I was curious for other options

No - I was conditioning a very very live bedroom studio (brick walls). I just wanted to point out that you have to think about what your expectations are and what your needs are :) You probably want to insulate your walls and put a decent covering (wallboard, whatever) over them to start in...

Also, letting us know what your priorities are would help too - how far is the garage away from the house? From neighbours? Is there noise outside you have to keep out? How loud do you play? Those sort of questions help determine how much sound proofing (as opposed to sound conditioning) you...

John's way is also how I did have my studio set up (until there started to be two people in there, which meant I moved the keyboard away from the mixer/computer) and it works really well. You can handle the keyboard and computer together for recording starts, or for composing work or...

Yargh! I'm getting nervous with regards to my new studio (currently in the "plotting" stage). Judging by the other comments here, I'll probably end up dropping the whole house on me when I lower the basement.

Now, just wanna say "John is God. Listen to John" but if you are lazy and/or have limited space/ability to change (ie, rented space, whatever) you can consider picking up something like an Auralex roominator kit (www.auralex.com) - fairly pricy, but it made a huge difference to the sound in my...

Exactly. There is some great, affordable software out there - support it. N-track rocks. BiaB is a useful, affordable piece of software. I just registered my copy of Noteworthy Composer as well - well worth the few bucks. Pay the few bucks, buy the real stuff. If you have to wait a month...

There are about 3 threads running about this in this same forum right now. Check some of those out.

They were also playing some new stuff - Treble Charger and STP and the like. Pretty good sound - all the people playing could actually play. And play multiple instruments, at that. Sax, trumpet, guitar, bass, drums, piano and three vocals - and there were only 4 members in the band. I saw...
