I still haven't posted pics of "The Foundry" (-it's where the metal's made... get it? )

Haha, clever! That's just the kind of thing though you need in name for people to connect with it.

I found myself getting extremely distracted in the foundry with all the equipment and stuff in there. Mainly because I haven't got it completely set up yet. So when I'm in there I spend most of the time messing with drum setup, and cable routing, etc. etc.
So I had a cheap laptop. And a cheap US800...

And set up LPC Studios
Just took this pic 5 minutes ago.

Wait... so you can see it now?

The N64 provided me with many a wonderful childhood memory
...so when I went on eBay last summer to look for some older games and found that the different color consoles were so affordable... well

The missing photos. I've made 2 corner bass traps and 2 absorbers, they made a huge difference in the room sound.

The photos are not being shown, No idea why.

How did you make them?

How did you make them?

I did not take any construction photos. The yellow thing on the left is the corner trap and the stripe bit behind the monitor screens is 1 of the absorbers. I used 3/4" x 4" pine boards with 1/2" x 2" strips for the braces put in acoustic insulation, (I don't remember the insulation specs.) covered everything with some curtain material. I used no plans, just made it up as needed. For the corner trap, I took a measurement across the corner (wall to wall) to determine the width, then I made a tri-angle frame using 1/2" x 2" strips and 3mm thick paneling as backing. I tightly packed in insulation and acoustic foam and covered everything with fabric. I could not find a 703 fiberglass equivalent at the time, I've since located a supplier so I'll make some better traps when time allows and photo document the process. I don't seem to have much luck posting photos, I'm much better at making stuff than using computers, but I'm slowly and painfully learning.

Hi all!

I am more than a beginner. The virgin Mary had nothing on me.

Anyway, I am ready to start construction on a home studio. I am starting from ground zero, just four walls and a concrete floor. Not even a roof!!!

My question is how "dead" do I want my studio. I can get "eggshell" foam for free, so I can pretty much "kill" the room. Do I want that?

All tips very much appreciated.
