for that you would not need internet access, no. just a Local Area Network.

2 or more computers connected by a router so that they can share devices (modem, printer etc.) and files. I guess you wouldn't need a 2nd computer for this though. Just the one computer, router & camera.

Actually, he wouldn't even need a router. A cheap hub should be plenty.
(unless the camera needs a dhcp server in operation?(I doubt it)))

Sounds like you have a pretty small room. But 38 percent still applies.

The derivation of the "38 percent rule" is explained in a sidebar in that article. All locations are a compromise, and 38 percent is just where the average of all peaks and nulls is minimal. But there are still peaks and nulls, and there's still modal ringing which placement cannot solve. So you still need bass traps.
> they're expensive as hell! <
ROF,L. Obviously you've never priced acoustic treatment from ASC or RPG.
Some people buy a $60 Behringer mixer because that's all they can afford. And there's nothing wrong with that. But other people are further along in the process, and are willing to pay more than the bare minimum in order to get better stuff. The same principle that applies to mixers and microphones applies to acoustic treatment too.

That's correct. I haven't priced much in the way of acoustic treatment products. I didn't mean to sound offensive; I know they're quality products. And like you said, people buy what they can afford at the time. However, I can't afford that right now, so I'll have to make do with the DIY method. At any rate, thanks very much Ethan for all your advice on this column. Your replies are always succint and informative.

Ethan,
I'm not really sure I understand this though:
If my room were larger, my desk would be even farther from the wall, wouldn't it?
Or were you thinking, "your mixing desk is ONLY two feet from the wall?"
(by the way, you can see the dimensions of my room in my drawing earlier in the thread.)
thanks
Is there normally any use for the extra space behind the mixing desk when using the 38% rule?
