Help on my rooms layout
Hi everyone,
I have attached a gif that shows the room I use for my studio. I know it's small, but it's all I have at the present.
The room is 9'x10' and ceiling height is 8'. The room is carpeted and as you can see there is little room to move things around.
The only thing I will be recording is my voice, or perhaps 2 voices at a time. All of my other tracks will be created in Sonar with Soft Synths so I won't be tracking bass, drums, keyboards or guitars in this room. With the mic so close to the keyboard it works out well to play and track scratch vocals at the same time and I can stop and start the recording myself. This is of course where I will also be mixing.
I've read many articles on the web about acoustic treatments but I think this one by Ethan Winer is the best overall. But, even after reading it I still would like some input on how best to treat my small room. Also, I need to mention that there is a ceiling fan in the middle and being that it is very warm in this room, it is used all the time except when I'm recording vocals. I would need any treatment ideas on the ceiling to accomodate this. Also, the only outside noise is at the door and at the window.
I do understand how to make my own panels and have starting researching where to buy what. I just don't want to make any mistakes in where to put it!
At present I have only a nice tapestry hanging behind the speakers and would like to try to incorporate it somehow in the design.
Thanks again everyone for your help.
