let me see your studio!

I'm intetested in getting some as well. Having used them in the past, it's kind of like having a few screwdrivers on your tool chest. You'll use them sooner or later.

For real transparent level control I have an aphex compellor.

Not the best shots of the new space, but here is a little tour that I threw together for my site. It has some pans of the equipment and recording space.

Just moved into my first apartment. My happy corner is coming together. It's a sweet spot for mixing, overdubs, and just listening. Full band stuff is recorded in my friends basement.

I have my room back now after a year of not having it. We did an addition to our house and in the process had to tear out most of my music room in the basement in order to add posts and beams for extra support. We moved back in in January and have been getting back to normal since then. I had many other major projects going since then but have finally completed the room. I still have to add something to cover the breaker box and a couple other small things yet but the majority is complete.

This is the way it used to look.

And this is present. Major changes include the addition of a subloor and laminate as well as adding a snake to eliminate cable clutter. Now the cable runs on the other side of the wall. In the first pic there is a door on the right side that leads to the bathroom which I also remodeled. Acoustic treatment is 2" oc703 panels with a 2" air gap behind them for broadband and 4" for the corners. Its a small room so I didnt want to take away too much space with thicker panels.

I agree, that looks amazing. Congrats on getting it all back together!

Nice job!

So, I have a window in my recording place that I am wanting to cover for multiple reasons, but is there a certain fabric that is better for containment and treatment? I did not know if the thicker the better or any problems that may arise. Thanks!

Heavy drapes are typical. But you haven't told us much. A diagram showing the room layout and window location would be good.

Have a talk to a company that makes or sell theatre blacks / curtains.

25oz (or higher) velour is a pretty typical theatre drape. Will absorb plenty of top end and ambience (but as one would expect, doesn't do much for low end).

I am so jealous! I will be painting mine and adding the traps hopefully next month. It looks awesome!

This is it so far lol. A piano, more guitars, keyboards and mics not shown. I've a full finished basement partially subbing as a photo studio: plenty of room left for a nice studio and control room if I take it that far. Then my son may not have to pay high studio fees as much.

Great Start!

Here's the 1st rendition of my recording space. I've made some more modifications, including building a rack and filling it with gear, replacing the drumset with one more appropriate for a Rush fan like myself. I'm working on lighting at the moment. A couple of weeks ago some dumba$$ muther@#$%er crashed his car into the back wall where the mixer sits. We were on vacation when it happened and I didn't notice it until we got home. Of course he left no information. But it was clear he was doing donuts in his car and lost control.

Nice space, and welcome back from a long time off ( i read your other post )

Care to go into your current setup/equip lineup?

 

[Simman]

Here's a little piece of it.

Very cool. I'd like to see more.

I also have some questions about the Ghost. Automation? DAW control?

I'm wanting a console but don't know what to get, so I'm just waiting.
