onpurposeproductions, 27 November 2008Hello all! First time post.....here we go!! My wife and I purchased a new home with a five year old detached garage that the current owner built. He really built it…
Soundman2020, 28 November 2008Quick comment here, Greg, and maybe the acoustic experts can comment, but I don't think I'd like to have a drum kit in my control room. I get the impression it would be…
onpurposeproductions, 28 November 2008Thanks for the thoughts guys. Yeah, just basic transfers going on here - peoples home movies and such. And you're absolutely correct, Stuart - the drums would resonate…
onpurposeproductions, 28 November 2008You know...something I haven't really considered was having a small iso booth (just vocals and amp isolation) right at the front entrance. I haven't really considered an…
Soundman2020, 28 November 2008Well, the way you have it right now on that model, the inner leaf is coupled to the outer leaf! Not good. That won't give you much isolation at all. How noisy is your…
onpurposeproductions, 28 November 2008Yeah - I figured as much. Not the kind of corner I want to cut for a little more sq. ft. I've got about 16 external storage drives, most of which have awful sounding…
onpurposeproductions, 28 November 2008I'm attaching a pic of an adaptation of Lilith's design that I've put together. Thanks again for that layout idea Lilith! I certainly like the idea of this layout but do…
Soundman2020, 29 November 2008It's looking good! I like the layout, (but your inner leaf walls need some work... :) ) Maybe one of those couches that is designed to fit in a corner would work? Or…
onpurposeproductions, 30 November 2008I've come up with a new layout option that I'm quite excited about. I'm amazed at the usable space I seem to be getting with this one. I've attached a pic of it and a…
Soundman2020, 1 December 2008Well, it's good use of space, and your CR is symmetrical, but it gets narrower behind the mix position, whereas the recommendations that I've seen are for it to get…
onpurposeproductions, 1 December 2008My bubble...........burst. :cry: I think I've been thinking too much about practical use of space. That certainly is a design principle that I was aware of - I need to…
onpurposeproductions, 1 December 2008Anyone have any recommendations of some good reading material for acoustics with regards to control room and/or live room design? Online material would be preferable…
Soundman2020, 1 December 2008I know how you feel! Welcome to the club... :) If I had a dollar for each time my "bubble got burst" here (thinking I had the perfect solution that nobody else every…
Soundman2020, 1 December 2008Yeah, not a good idea to be facing backwards. I'd avoid that if you can. I hate to tell you this, but here comes another "burst bubble": You do NOT want diffusion in…

onpurposeproductions, 8 December 2008Stuart - this statement doesn't seem to read as light-hearted as I felt when writing. I certainly did appreciate you taking the time to think through that option. And it…
onpurposeproductions, 10 December 2008In case anyone is still paying attention here I've got another question. This layout gives me a control room ratio of approximately 1 : 1.25 : 1.56, pretty good…
