Another thing you need to look into is ingress & egress. Those are ways into and out of a space. If I were sitting in your controll room, and there was a fire, the way you have it set-up now, I'd have to go through a minimum of 5 doors, and a maximum of 7 doors to get out! And there's only ONE...

That vocal booth is so small, I doubt it would be functional. If you could eliminat that, and just combine the vocal booth, and "Studio C", I think you'd have a much more functional place. Plus, you could use the expanded "Studio C" as an additional iso room. Just remember that small spaces...

And there's a few pics of the one I'm currently building here: http://www.johnlsayers.com/Studio/Mainpage/MP-Carriage.htm and here: https://homerecording.com/bbs/showthread.php?t=130954

OK. This is where I'm at now:

That's the one I was looking for Rick, thanks!

The short answer to your question is yes, you'll gain some Sound Transmission (or lose some "soundproofness") by not insulating both walls. You need to decid what Sound Transmission Class you want to achieve with your walls, and build accordingly. Here's a chart showing different wall...

As always, check local codes, or better yet, hire a professional.

Look at my post here: https://homerecording.com/bbs/showthread.php?t=67339&highlight=Electrical We talked about this in depth. Be sure to scroll down to my SECOND post in that thread to see the breakdown. I think I came up with 130 watts total. The One Outlet - One Breaker, One Switch - One...

In a thread titled "Show Off YOUR Studio", why would you show a picture of someone else's?

I'd get 2 Shure SM81's and 1 Shure SM7. The 81's will work great as overheads, and will sound absolutely fantastic on acoustic guitar. The SM7 is a phenominal vocal mic; one that you'll find yourself going to time and again. The SM81's and the SM7 are studio workhorses that will work well in a...

I can not, for the life of me, understand why those of you that were warned of the content, go there anyway, then come back here and bitch up one side and down the other. :confused: :mad: Did you not see the warning? Yet you chose to go there anyway? You've no one but yourself to blame...

I hear people say that all the time Fitz; on this site and others. For the life of me, I simply cannot understand why ANYONE would not go through the proceedures to obtain a permit for construction or substantial remodel. Its just insane not to. Sometimes, stupidity does indeed prevail.

Ok, this is like the 200th time someone has asked, "What's the best mic for under $200." :rolleyes: And the answer remains the same: It Depends. It depends on what instrument you're using it on, what room its being used in, who's in front of it... the list goes on. In short, there is no...

I'll let you know when its all done. :(

Who? Me? .........

I don't know anything about the Bellari pre. I do have an ART PRO MPA Dual channel mic pre. I recorded "December's Mist" with it and a pair of TLM103's. You can hear it here: http://www.nowhereradio.com/artists/album.php?aid=1656&alid=-1&20040703081136#13798 I think its a great pre provided...

Thanks Shep. Yeah, I had to go with 3/8" PIPE. But its in!!! All the joints are sweated in, the pipe is "bracketed" into place, and the pipe insulation is on. I have an air pressure test on it right now, and its holding strong with 15psi. Now I can finish up the last little bit of that nasty...

I agree, especially if you don't have any significant carpentry skills. You could even put some 703 on top of the "drop ceiling" and just make your whole ceiling disappear acoustically. Doing what you're thinking of is just going to be a nightmare for you. Walls are never square, and you'd have...

Have a look at my post "Copper and Brass". There are pictures of both the 703 and the Rockwool. The 703 is the yellow stuff, and the rockwool is the grey-green stuff. 703 is typically used for absorbtion, and rockwool is a very dense type of insulation. Rockwool goes between the studs in the...

Fitz - those extrusions are very cool! I'll have to study on them some more. For the revealed wood panels, I haven't come up with a detailed plan yet, but your details that you posted go a long way towards helping me understand as to how it needs to be done. DDev - Yeah, I know the 703 will...
