I am thinking of building a s small studio in my "underground" basement. It is a finished basement already (so I'm not dealing with a damp and moldy dungeon). The space I have to work with is about 20 ft' long, 6.5-7 ft wide, and 7ft ceilings. My plan is to build an all in one studio (tracking and mixing) - Guitar, Bass, Vocals, but not drums.
First question: The dimension is shaped like a hall basically. Is this not a good idea? I know it will impact the sound obviously, but how bad?
Second question: If the hall shape is a bad idea, could I cut the length roughly in half say (10-14 ft)? Would this be better.
Additional information: I will be doing this from scratch. In other words. I will be installing double sheet rock, hardwood-laminate flooring, fiberglass ceiling, acoustic (sound) treatment. Basically, If I'm going to do this; I'm only going to do this once, and hopefully with everyone's advice "right!"
Any helpful information or advice would be great. Thank you to all that reply
