Hi please could you give some advice on acoustic treatment for my music mixing control room. I have a bit of knowledge in terms of acoustic treatment but none with a room with the two unusual features i have in my new room. i've attached a photo of it in the link below to make things easier.
The room is 9 meters long and 4 meters wide.
1) my first concern is the far wooden beam going across the width of the room, i plan to have my speaker monitors at that far end facing down the length of the room. They will be a phew feet away from the far wall and phew feet away in the other direction away from the wooden beam. The under edge of the beam is about 7.5 ft high so i can comfortably walk under it and the speakers will be about 3.5 feet high so its not directly inline with the speakers but they are kinda close to each other. my question is will the beam be a problem and is there any advice anyone could give to acoustically treat the beam if needed?
2) my second concern is the slanting ceilings going down both length walls. i've seen many posts over the internet for slanting ceilings but thats for e.g a slanting ceiling say behind or in front of the speaker position in my case the slanting ceilings run down the sides of my monitors. My question is how should i go about treating these areas and would anyone know if having slanting ceilings on both length walls considering my speaker position would be an advantage or disadvantage in terms of room acoustics?
i hope you can help, many thanks
