I have also built the final cloth frame that goes above the soffits. It's a removable light frame, so when I change the far field speakers I don't have to un-do too much. Soooo, I choose a pale blu/purple for the drum room soft wall. I was 1.5meters short, but needed access to that area cause the electrics weren't done. I went back to the store yesterday and they don't carry that colour anymore!!!! So I need to be creative and mix in another colour.

It looks good...you have done a great job and now so close to the end!
THanks X-Space Soon I'll have to actually do some recording work. I got a camera for my birthday (which you all missed!) From the favourite band that I mix live - Lucy's Crown. You should all check them out http://www.lucyscrown.com

Oh, it took my electricity supplier 10 months to send me a bill, but it was $500 in credit, due to the solar panels. I have a feeling that it may have been a mistake on their behalf, but i wont be telling them :)
better spend it on some new equipment :twisted:
Very good looking results, serves as inspiration for the shed studio I'm currently in the planning stages of.

Nope, it's very common for electric companies to owe customers with solar panels money back every month, especially when the customers aren't consuming a lot of energy. My grandmothers church consists of two HUGE buildings on which they installed solar panels on a few years back. The church has been saving over $1400 per month in energy! So spend that $500 and don't look back! :yahoo: Nice build BTW! :mrgreen:
this are the nicest looking slats i ever see! :yahoo: good work. cheers Mika
I've been working on the business side of things and getting my website up and running. I've decided to call the studio "Bantam Studio" Being that it's little and of course....I have chooks. Need to get some good photos of the studio to insert into the website but check it out. www.bantamstudio.info
That is a great looking web-site Lil. Very modern looking. But, I thought you ate that chicken last year :)
great work Lil. you've worked hard and long to create this studio. Good luck with it, you definitely have a commercial product to promote and please feel free to use this forum and my name to promote it. Your consistent contribution to other forum members definitely grants you that. cheers john
Hi Lilith ... Just wanted to send 'Congrats' on your studio & web site ! I enjoyed, and learned as you posted your progress. :D
Let me add my congratulations to the growing list: Looking really good, and I bet it's sounding pretty good too! - Stuart -
Hey Lilith - Love the site. Minor spelling error on the Gear Page, you have percussion spelled, precussion.
ha ha, Thanks! Well I'm finished........................ A massive thank you to John, for your amazing Forum, design knowledge and help through out this process, and for your distant friendship here after:) Special thanks to Sideshow, Mr Gervais, Soundman, Xspace and Gullfo for the hints and tips on both studio design and general building skills. It has been the greatest experience of my musical life and given me the skills to tackle anything! (renovating the house) I have/had bookings and clients throughout April and May, who love the feel of the room and the results in the mix. Last pics.....
