One more thing .... like i mentionned before when I bang on the control room's wall I can feel the live room's wall vibrate a little, although there are no physical connection between the two. I suspect it has to do with the similar construction on each side ... hopefully a 3rd layer on the LR...

I'm having the sliding doors installed next week then I'll probably go rent a drumset and bang the hell out of it to test the design :) Will keep you posted.

Going from control room side to live room: [2x 5/8 drywall - studs+isolation] - big space between rooms - [studs+isolation - 2x 5/8 drywall] I have drywall only on the inner leaves of the adjacent control room and live room walls. Do i make sense? I will probably add a 3rd layer of drywall on...

You bet that helps :) Thanks for the wise words. I am having steel studs (20ga) and judging by the weight of the hardboard it will be a decent mass addition to the internal leaf. We'll see if that 73Hz will defeat my plan. By banging on the control room's side I can feel a little vibration on...

In a double wall construction: 5/8 drywall(x2)-2.5" air with insulation-5/8 drywall (x2) Would using some 1/8" tempered hardboard on one of the leaves make enough difference on the resonant frequency and prevent that frequency to get thru the wall? Or does it have to be some pretty heavy stuff...

I use a wood saw to cut some Thermafiber, works pretty well.

Thanks knightfly.

not too sure about that one ... plus it adds $100 to the price tag. So is LowE glazing worth it?

hey that's funny, we're also waiting for our appraisal .... if all goes well closing should not be later than july 15. can't wait!

OK guys i appreciate the input but i did not ask for mixing techniques LOL! Just need the name of that program or of any program that works the same, that's it.

Actually yes, I am looking to improve frequency recognition, differences in levels ("hey, i'd turn down that 350Hz by 2 db" kind of thing) etc ... Like Golden Ears but as a PC software.

Hi I am looking for a program that basically is ear training for AEs, generating frequencies out of pink noise (i guess), reducing their respective volumes ...etc. I saw it @ SAE Miami but I forgot the name ...

fishtop, i get your point but i was considering not floating the control room as i never ever monitor loud ... OTOH floating the whole space would at least allow me to run cable ducts ... mmm ... decisions, decisions ...

Ah! Exactamundo. Thanks Michael! What about the other alternative of having the cables going thru the wall directly without a wall plate, anyone done that?

Hi gang, i've been digging through the archives here but did not find a definitive answer (if such thing exist). I understand the concept of having a wall plate with female XLR's on the studio side and connecting the plugs to either your mic pre's or a patchbay for better flexibility. The step...

charoo do like i'm gonna do: lock yourself in, unplug the phone, get food and supplies for at least 2 weeks, send your wife/girlfriend to her mom (or on a Paris shopping spree!). Then log on the AES website and DIG! :) When you don't understand something allow yourself 2 days of heavy pondering...

Thanks again! I've been to the SAE site but did not memorize all of it (so much good stuff over there!). I'll make sure to dig thru it before posting any dumb question next time ;)

BTW does it make a difference by not having the speakers "in-walled" (sorry can't find the correct term)?

I believe that the Auralex guy prefers square rooms so we can buy more stuff from them? All sarcasm aside, it makes better sense now. Is there a precise angle for the walls to be at (at least in the CR)? Well I kind of get it, since we want to deflect the signal from the speakers. Glad I can...

Yeah I had the same question a couple of months ago but the answers were kinda fuzzy. Would love to hear more about that subject. Thanks.
