    Help with setting up a home studio.

    yikes...i meant to say Micing. Sorry. I'd say pick up a sm57 for guitar and snare. pick a bass drum mic for bass drum, get 2 drum overhead mics for stereo imaging, and a decent condensor for vocals.

    The best 2 track simultaneous multitracker out there.

    I had the worst experience with the fostex mr-8. I used a zoom mrs-4 when I had a 2 track sim. recorder. That was 5 years ago, there are much better 2 track sim. recorders now. You have a ton of options. My opinion is that you shoudl buy the one wit hthe features you can't live without. Chances...

    Speaker Ohms

    I guess this would be a good time to say that im not speaking of a guitar amp. Im talking about a stereo. THe receiver's amp handles 8 ohms per speaker. I have 2 6 ohm speakers. I was wondering if it is ok to hook them up to the receiver without causing any type of damage. It seems to me that...

    Haha all of this is true, I was singing the blues while tearing down my acoustic treatment and my desk. The first thing that came to mind was, that I was going to be moving into pandamonk's studio! I setup my studio yesterday, the only thing lacking is that "wide" sound.

    Any more treatment ideas for my room?

    This is the room's current layout. Here is a photo of the front wall The stereo imaging has improved a ton. I know many of you would rather see more rigid fiberglass than foam, but I couldn't stand the look of a million frames in such a small space. My big question is do you think I should...

    Carpet

    I tried carpet before, It really wont do much. If it is a thicker style of carpet it may help a little, but not much.

    Foam placement- includes experts graphics.

    You need 4''-6'' for bass trapping. nothing less will do.

    Foam placement- includes experts graphics.

    Many people are just going to tell you to get rigid fiberglass which isnt a bad idea. I'd tell you to build bass traps to put around your kit and I would use the foam on the ceiling since it is light weight. The foam on the ceiling will help cut down reflections fro mthe cymbals and the bass...
