Here's how I plan to cover the 703 in cloth. I'll cut out the fabric in a big rectangle. (Sized to fit) Then I'll cut out "squares" from each of the corners. This will leave me with.... tabs, so to speak. Then those tabs will get folded over and ironed, so that there's a nice, crisp seam there...

Harvey Gerst wrote a nice thread about miking a harp. Do a search for it, I'm sure it'll help you out. If memory serves, he mentioned using an omni out away from the instrument.

So, that's kind of where I'm at now. Of course, I'll need to put in the window seals before I sheetrock, and the channels in the CR need to have their plates built. I'm going to have to "grout" the edges of the channel so that I get a perfectly smooth transistion from channel plate to concrete...

In order to keep the 703 from just falling through, in between the walls, I had to install these 1x2 backing strips on the inside of the walls. I'm not sure exactly how I'm going to secure the 703 to the backing strips. :confused: Especially the top of the windows. I'm not sure if adhesive...

:D (Thanks) And here's the Control Room Window, all blocked in with 703. That of course, will get covered with cloth. The 703 "sticks up" 1/2" so that when I put in the window seal, it'll all be flush.

I do have the windows all blocked in. This is the Vocal Booth window....

I've been rockwool-ing like a mad-man. A little bit left to do in the bathroom, and I'll be done with that nasty stuff!

OK. The more I think about this, the more I realize I'm going to have to use 3/8" pipe. I have to tee into 1/2" pipe. Then reduce to 3/8". That's simple enough to do with pipe fittings, but to try and do that with tubing fittings is going to result in one of those... "plumber's nightmares"...

Rick hit the nail on the head! I have 3/8" tubing and 3/8" fittings for 3/8" pipe. :( :rolleyes: What I'd really like to do is find 3/8" copper fittings for 3/8" copper tubing. But I'd have to go to an A/C shop to find those. That means Tuesday. I don't want to wait that long. I want to...

:D :D I'll betcha I can still find time to rip it up in the cave!

Don't you have a closet that you could just walk into and use as a vocal booth?

OK, this is weird. I was rummaging around in the garage and I found some 3/8" copper fittings. It even says 3/8". But it doesn't fit the 3/8" copper tubing I have. Not by a long shot. The tubing says 3/8" O.D. Its like.... for refregerators.... or.... Ice makers. Maybe what I need is 3/8" I.D...

There's a place here in Austin that has it in stock too. I probably bought more rockwool than I need. When I'm finished with the studio, What's left over is free for the taking, but I won't ship it. Pick-up only.

Yeah. That..... works. Just make sure that you don't use the crotch! :eek: :( :( :D

Well, I sort of took a hiatus from the studio during June, July, and August. Anyone that lives in central Texas would understand this. So, with the cooler weather, I've resumed building these past few weeks. I have one thing left to do, and I can start sheetrockin'! I need to run a 3/8" copper...

Your set-up is almost exactly the same as mine. The only thing different is that I'm using a 2GHz processor; everything else is exactly the same. I don't have ANY latency issues. What are your settings for the 96/52?

Yep. TLM 103 or a Shure SM7

OK, I have to ask: Are you using a "cracked" version of the software?

Ted - If you noticed I said in my first post; "In my opinion". And that's all it was meant to be. Its not my intention to disuade or persuade anyone towards one format or the other. I've had an "All-in-one" box before. So I'm just offering my first-hand opinion between the two. I have a...

Well, it wasn't long ago that 16 bit was the shits. Then 24 bit came out and blew that away, now we're looking at 32 bit, and moving towards higher resolution audio via DVD. At the same time a 48k converter was state of the art, 96k walked up and smacked it, now resolutions are going even...
