desk positioning

[An3one]

Hi everyone, I'm setting up my home studio. Following the 38% rule and positioning my desk facing the short wall, I'd end up with the first reflection points between the door and the wall and, from behind, on the French window. This could be a problem for positioning the panels and correct the reflections. In addition to playing music, I'd also like to mix. Therefore, I’d prefer to avoid positioning the desk on the long wall. Can anyone help me with some advice about a good position for my desk? I've attached a drawing of the room, not to scale. Thanks in advance and good music

The good news is, your room is not a simple L to W ratio so that helps. Yes, the reflective French window could be a problem. Curtain on a take down rail? If possible interpose a large absorbent object twixt you and window, a sofa say or an absorbent gobo.

As ever I shall recommend you go to soundonsound.com and find their many "Studio SoS" articles.

Dave.
