Hey Louis, give us a "play by play" on the pictures.
Tell us what we're looking at, and why you did some of the things you did.

All set, I added some text to the photos explaining what I did.

Louis - How high, off the floor, is the bottom of your vocal booth window?

I just framed in mine the other day, and I set the bottom of the window at 4'-6" off the floor.
I'm thinking I'm going to lower it 6" - 12".

I set it up initally so that the middle of the window was at my eye level, but I put my dainty little wife in there (she's 5'-2") and I think it may be too high for your average female vocalist.

Have any thoughts in that reguard?

 

[LDQ]

The bottom of my window is 3' 5". I originally wanted it at 4' but due to ceiling height limitations I lowered a bit. From my mixing position I can see short or tall vocalist no problem. I would have loved to have a bigger window but I didn't want to spend to much $$ dough on glass. Also the ceiling for my control room is goint to be a false ceiling at an angle starting from the top of the window to the middle of the control room...so if I had the window to high I wouldn't have been able to get the angle that I wanted...aprox 12 degrees.

For Charoo's studio in India I set them at 1' 6"

I figured sitar and tabla players sit on the floor

OK, so anywhere between 18" and 4 feet ought to cover it?

I think if I drop it a foot, and set the bottom at 3'-6", that ought to cover most situations. The sitar and tabla players will just have to stand! lol.

Thanks Kevin,

I can't wait to put down my drill/hammer and start doing some mixing....I am planning to get it all done in another 2 months....will see how it goes.

How is your place looking?

Luis.

Luis - I'm glad to see your progress and glad to hear your getting close to completion.

Things at lsf are going good. I'm done enough to keep myself from finishing

We have been recording down there so much that I have been putting off a lot of the cosmetic finish details. All the rooms sound great - my thanks to everyone here who has contributed in one way or another.

Cheers
Kevin.
