    1st string intonation problem

    Hello, I am trying to correct the buzzing and intonation of my electric guitar, and I can't get the intonation right on the lowest string. First, I raised the bridge to be about as high as the other ones, and this fixed the buzzing issue I was having. However, when I fret the 12th fret, the...

    Just an SM57 and a dream

    Thanks for the responses (and the kudos). I'm glad to hear there are others who use one mic only, or who claim it can be done effectively. If I had to guess, i'd say my room is 12" x 12" x 12", with a bed, four hanging curtains and a lot of plants. I have a couple gobos. I use the closet...

    Just an SM57 and a dream

    Bummer. I tried putting up all this foam at my old place and it was a huge pain and it still didn't sound right. I was hoping the closet would solve my problems. What about outside? You still get the sound moving through space, but there are no walls. I would even take the ambient noise over...

    Just an SM57 and a dream

I guess I just thought that to do this and add more verb later would make it sound like a hand clap that's inside a room that's planted in the middle of a concert hall, rather than a hand clap in a concert hall. However, claps sound especially poor in a...

    What can I do with what I have?

    Makes sense. I'll use the thick foam for bass traps. So they only have to be in the corners where the walls meet, not the walls and the ceiling? your drawing appears that way.

    What can I do with what I have?

    //edit Thank you for all your responses. I think I'm going to make frames and put the foam in them and stretch fabric over it. That's my plan for now. My only other question is, how much wall space should I cover? 50%? should I put something on the ceiling? Should I just have one big thing on...

    Nothing in three days? I'm really surprised.

    What can I do with what I have?

    I also thought maybe I could make a gobo out of some of this. Just throwing that out there.

    What can I do with what I have?

    Hey all, First of all, please pardon my mess. second of all, understand that like many of you, I am in a very tight economic situation. Now that said, I live in a coop in Chicago and we have an absolutely beautiful and amazing music room. I am in the process of turning it into a functional...
