How much of an downwards angle can your monitor have before you get side-effects? Can the monitors be mounted high and pointed 45 degrees down at the listening position? Construction tips state that monitors should be angled downwards if they are mounted higher than the listening position but...

Do you have a direct link to that? I cannot find it on the tascam site.

No no, I meant that they are stacked with dollar bills. At least that's what the sales guy told me...:confused: Hopefully I can get the governmet to approve the purchase of an 80GB unit in the near future. /O

Anyone tried them? They're cheap and have big cash but can they be trusted? I know it's a bit early to speak about their long-term performance but if anyone had one fail already, I'd love to know before I order one. /Ola

Unfortunately, yes it's too late. However, your redemption has been noted.

I use FAT32 on my W2k DAW for one simple reason - I have a W98 system on the same drive and W98 cannot read NTFS. When I get my dedicated DAW up and running, I'll probably use NTFS. I have done lots of benchmarking on different file systems (FAT, FAT32 and NTFS) and tried other "tricks" such...

Kudos for digging up such old crap from the archives. :D The page moved here: http://www.overclockers.com/tips821/ My vote is still that he's a dumbass.

So, Frederic, any news on your plans?

Maybe the "piano room" should be a "dead room" and the piano put in the live room. I'm only interested in acoustic music so I don't really think about "dead rooms" at all.

Re: I'm really not qualified for this but... Maybe this layout can mess up your planning a bit :) Again, maybe the parallel walls need to be adressed and maybe the percussion room is too small. Heck, I don't know. /Ola

I especially liked how you could see all the studio rooms from the console. I think you would really feel like a king sitting on the throne behind the console. Maybe this layout from John's manual can give you tips on how to fit soffit mounted monitors as well. /Ola

Re: Re: I'm really not qualified for this but... No no no, I don't know if these rooms would work acoustically, I only know a bit of architectural design and I've read John's manual a couple of hundered times... (I was even the first one to buy it back when it wasn't free) Maybe something...

I just realised that you don't need double walls between the server and machine rooms and that there should be a door there...

I'm really not qualified for this but... I liked the first drawing so much more than the later ones so I took a stab at it. Here, you can get to the live room and percussion room from the control room. I figured that the mics in the piano room needs less fiddling. There should of course be...

Is the unhappy guy in your picture unhappy because you're not talking about his room or because his truncated walls are a bad concept all together?

How good is THX really? I think one of the specifications states that the room should be square. I never go to the movies so I haven't looked into this but that alone sounds wierd. /O

Which bedroom studio are you referring to? This? http://www.saecollege.de/reference_material/images/Bedroom.gif /O

Good one Doc

Unplug any electrical equipment more sensetive than a light bulb right away. A buddy of mine had faulty wiring, costing him a graphics card, my C-port breakout box and a couple of shocks while we were fault tracing. Turned out that his wiring was like this: hot: 230V - normal in Sweden zero: 0V...

Yes. Search here for soldering and you'll find lots of good tips. Then get some cheap wire and practice a bit. Good luck /O
