    Cant wait for the recording! with glass though u will DEFINITELY get a LOT of reflection.. with your original door idea you can pad the inside like the other walls to minimise that~ now i want to make one.. convert an old fridge... :rolleyes:

    Monitors- JBL Control 1X or ESI nEar05?

    just got my nEar05 over the weekend... love them... made my mix a LOT flatter response (no more hifi outputs!!!)... but i guess anythings an upgrade.. it does need to be a decent volume to be balanced sounding... not excessively loud given its 5"... (much better than the 8" when i tried it at...

    DIY guitar isolation cab

    VERY INTEREST!! kudos indeed~ just a number of questions.. 1 - i presume theres a door somewhere for access? if so whats the need for the glass? =P just for pure admiration!??! :p 2 - hows the foam performing? do you get much (A LOT) of reverb and room (box) sound? i find it hard to imagine...

    n00b question about mic's.

    i thought balanced 1/4" can do phantom power as well... i.e. xlr -> balanced 1/4" (provided the 1/4" in has phantom power...)

    Mic Pre or Mic

    Im in no way an expert but when i got a DMP3 pres to use instead of my dodgy mixer pres... the improvements were huge... every mic i used sounded more lively so if u think ur pre's are hodling u back.. it probably is not worth upgrading mics as ur pres will just render them crap ANYWAY..

    mic advice

    yea for the price u really cant go wrong.. (well u can i guess but not in this case)... they are also very rugged themselves and ppl are amazed by how small they are in real life... they come in a hard case (which i should mention was useful in itself for me last night to hold up the piano...

    mic advice

    to me they lack a bit of high end brilliance to them so i'd eq it depending on the cymbal/hi hat.. but for toms its great.. and also the fact that they are a LOT more sensitive than my other drum mics (SM57s) so at the same distance a drummer on steroid will really jump at you.. but if u move it...
