Would a beam running across the ceiling of a room at it's peak potentially cause any type of issue acoustically? I suspect not, but want to be sure. The spot where the beam will cross may have a 'cloud' covering it anyway - but I'd like a sanity check here.
Description of planned room: ceiling rises - front to back - to a peak.. then gradually slopes down toward back of room.. see picture below and rough shape/location of beam. In the picture below, you are looking at a side shot (from left side of room) of a proposed control room - front of room is to the left (mix position as marked would face left).
The positive here is that if I'm correct in that it won't cause issues acoustically - construction-wise, it will likely allow me to completely isolate the room from the rest of the dwelling above.
Thanks!

No, it will not cause a problem acoustically. AndreWould a beam running across the ceiling of a room at it's peak potentially cause any type of issue acoustically? I suspect not, but want to be sure.
Thanks for the sanity check!
I'm in the push to finalize plans and start construction - so there will be a flood of questions coming. I've read Rod's book (twice, actually) and I THINK I've got everything straight - but I've still got some stuff to work out.
