Mmm, not sure what that means. But I meant having to be closer' than you'd like to be- that falls under a fairly basic recording option (or limitation.I would think that close mic'ing is only damage control if you use room mic's in bad room. Been there.

I see the can is open. I think the point of the article was that you can indeed make recordings that rival the "real" studios without going nuts on room construction. Just a different perspective.
Why would that open a can of worms? That is what we all deal with. The dood never said room treatment was stupid. Even in a well treated room, mic placement and techniques are still necessary. As far as 'Your room will never sound pro', that is bullshit coming from someone who has never spent a few bucks on treatment and/or monitors. Define 'pro'. What the hell does that even mean?
Room treatment is just the most cost effective way to make things better in any recording situation. It can cost less than a good microphone.
Yes, small rooms have more issues than larger ones, but to say that it isn't possible is just silly. Oh yeah, this is just my opinion...
