My recording room is 14'x16'x9' tall.
I record only acoustic instruments and vocals. Up to this point, we've only tracked in this room. But I'm thinking I want to try recording more than one thing at a time. I might want a bit of isolation and have come up with a drawing of my ideas.
I could stick one person in each of the booths and an additional person could be placed out in the open area behind (north of) the mix position. The three walls of the booth sections would be constructed of 1"x8" framework. A piece of 1/4" Masonite (hardboard) would be fastened to a inside frame of 1"x2" material. This would split the frame into 2 4" deep sections on front and back. These areas would then be filled with 703 or rockwool and faced with fabric.
The center divider between the 2 booths would be constructed just like the panels mentioned above.
The booths will not have doors.
My questions are:
1. Would get a decent amount of isolation in the 2 booths?
2. How will this layout of the booth panels be as far as helping/hurting the mix position?
The first pic is the overall design of the room and the second is a detail of the the panels as viewed from above.
Thanks for your ideas and critiques.
