I'm gonna start on my new basement control room w/ 9 ft ceilings. Looking for completed room pics for inspiration.
 
I should have some pics in a few days, but I don't have 9' ceilings (lucky dog).
 
I've got this room cleaned out and I'm about to get started. This is a very straight forward room and I've completed a more challenging shaped room in the past so this should rather smoothly.
I plan to build this room with no budget so at best it should be a show of cost effective home studio design. Hopefully.

How are you going to get total isolation with no budget? A control room needs to be sound-proofed from the tracking room for it to have any reason to even exist, no?

I'm just asking.
 
Here is a 12'x13.5' control room with a high ceiling. Nothing too fancy but the peak ceiling (vaulted) is about 9-6": cloud over mix position (unseen), treatment behind monitors and on the back wall, bass traps in corners and treatment floor to wall every 2' o.c.(unseen).

The plan is to build this cost effectively, (that's what I mean by no budget). We built our house last year and the money tree is bare but I have leftover construction supplies and I'll grab more supplies every payday, what I call the nickel and dime approach.
 
My room dimensions are actually 14.4' x 11.5' with a door centered on the short wall. I'm assuming its probably better for mixing if the spkrs point across the longest span.
