Good luck with your project. Please let me know how that ceiling turns out. :cool: Thanks,

It shows there should be over 4,000 threads in the Studio Building Forum, but there's only three pages worth. Do you have to have a certain number of posts to view these, or are they deleted to save server space? :confused: I'd just like to know, I've been wanting to read about more completed...

Thanks a lot for your interest & replies, I'll try to answer all questions as best I can, and I hope you'll come back with even more questions! :) VSpaceBoy: Yeah, it's been hard for me to absorb everything I have been reading, but I have learned more in a week than I have all year! :D I will...

It's up in the air at the moment. Once I get exact measurements of the basement, I'll decide the appropriate dimensions of both rooms. I may end up making the control room narrower and putting an iso booth at one end, and a storage area at the other. (please see attachment) The only concern I...

You got that right. ;)

Ok, here's an idea: Let's all make up lyrics for a blues song. Each person takes what was written before, and adds a couple of verses to the song. Great songwriting practice! :cool: You have to make them funny, silly, profound, or just plain dumb. But please keep it clean. Ok, I'll start...

Can you loan me $200 for a cup of Starbuck's? ;)

Do you have windows XP? If so, you can use Windows Movie Maker. (Start > Programs > Accessories > Windows Movie Maker) Just select "Audio Only" on the Record menu, plug into the "line in" jack, and select the same from the source dropdown. You said you wanted easy? There's just two controls...

I once built a broken 4-track out of one that worked... :o ...and did it all myself! :p

Hehe Every drummer I've ever met was weird. :D Even more so than ME! :eek:

I don't think that one layer of carpet would kill your sound. If I were doing it, I'd lay down a couple sheets of plywood, then put carpet over that. The plywood will keep you off the concrete, plus give you something to attatch the carpet to. Maybe wrong, I don't know. Is there an Expert in...

3. It just depends on what you're doing. If you are recording direct or close micing your amp, there's no need for plywood. But if you want a little ambiance and color in your sound, throw down a sheet of plywood, put your amp at one end, your mic at the other, and blaze away. You can also cut...

Thank you for your replies. :) For the complete info I have posted a thread about my planned studio here.

I'm thinking about asking a couple of friends to let me build a studio in the basement of their house. But before I do, I'd like to know what you all think about it. Any help will be greatly appreciated. The basement is accessible only from the outside via stone steps. The entire basement is...

I'm thinking of putting a recording studio in a friend's basement that is completely underground. The ground level is even with or just above the door frame. No windows in the basement, and accessible only from outside via steep stone steps. There is a second concrete block wall about 4' high...

I'd love to have a studio in mine, but it's only 40" high in the center peak of the roof. :(

If you want kids to come to your show, borrow an ice cream truck. Then, when they come to get ice cream, give 'em a flyer instead. ;) (free ice cream wouldn't hurt... :p ) Dang things are like magnets.

Wal-Mart parking lot. :cool: Half of a town's population goes there on Saturday. Also, visit when a bad storm or snow is expected in a couple days. Everyone breaks their necks to go get milk and bread. :rolleyes:

:eek: Spammer! Spammer! (evil laugh) :D :p ;) Cool site. :) I just noticed you have the same Guitar Chord poster I do. :cool:

And to think they were the "professionals"! :D
