Hey everyone,

I just cleaned out my studio and after some furious research on the gear placement, I have come to a happy configuration on that... However I need some advice as to where you guys would put your acoustic foam/bass traps in a room like this. And or could advise some products to help me achieve a good sounding room. :D

Here's the diagram folks.

Zac's Studio Drawing.webp

So the room I'm working in is a cozy 13 feet by 9 feet. Small enough. Ceiling is 8 feet tall and there's a closet with the doors removed so I can stuff all my wires and junk in there :)

Monitors are on two stands 4 feet and 2 inches apart from each other. The sound trajectory emitted by the monitors skims past the sides of the listening point into the opposing corner.

So far I've got 2 panels of 2 ft. by 4 ft. acoustic foam, might buy some more depending on how it sounds, got em pretty cheap so I'll see... Bass traps will be DIY unless I can find some good cheap stuff.

A few other room properties to note is the window in the top right hand corner of the room, the door in the bottom right hand corner of the room, and a Roland TD-6 electric drum kit in the left hand bottom of the room. * The drum kit is not against the corner as I will probably end up putting some sort of material there to help diffuse the oncoming sound. *

So yeah, that's about it. If you would like to see some pics of the room itself then let me know but I felt like a diagram would suffice.

All opinions are greatly appreciated! :D

Hey,
Thanks for the feedback, I was cruising around some other threads and found the RealTraps Ultimate Home Studio video on youtube, very cool stuff. Been meaning to check them out now.

Yeah, Ethan (RealTraps) has a few videos and lots of articles. You can build something VERY similar to the RealTraps stuff on your own with rigid fiberglass. Ethan is a member here and is always very helpful (whether you're buying from him or not). He has a room setup video on youtube somewhere too. Check it.
