Greenfield home studio Sydney - ballpark costs

Damn I was just waiting for that........ SLAM! lol.... Link I guess ...... though they shouldn't mind ... and very good basics and more, I know people there in a company of 100,000,00, how about an ask permission link! - Ro - the head on the shoulders of the JLS Site Ha..... Nice One! ADDD Me Bad! Okey Dokey....... Guess I go the long way 'round.

Adda, you bad indeed :mregreen: 50% of you posts I can't make shit of it. confusing man. confusing. (I'm not mad I'm just a helicopter... peooekie pooekea bluuuuuuuh. pr, prrrr.)

Damn shit.... the 50% who do seem cool! Must have your whammy bar stuck; you sure your not just a jive turkey- you need to read the Greenfield post Ro! - then you are Dutch...... Whoa!http://www.johnlsayers.com/phpBB2/posting.php?mode=reply&f=1&t=13222# ADDA

Ok Roo...... now I get it......! The Big boys where left out while we were talking about Sydney It's a touch like you having a great gabber in local dutch suburbia, though missing out on half the conversation, you have no idea who Frank Sartor is...... and the new building Regulations in Sydney now.. so all has.... been very different for a change Roo, I guess I read posts.......... but hey Skimming & welcome is just fine....... Next? Think you need some crentabrout (Sic) & a lie down no? ADDA

GREAT! (you the owner of that site? )

Oh God......... Trust the bloody Dutch .... You were quoting X-space! You bloody Idiot Roo? No wonder you never follow anything, your always bloody half stoned with a finger up a Dyke.....! Crikey - strike me down, you ask a senior member and he doesn't even know the thread! Da!....... I give up ....... links are there Richard. Cheers ADDA.

my finger just got stuck in a piece of krentebrood ;) damn you, fuzzy ADDA ! :mrgreen: (really don't have a clue what you're saying... aargh, I'm goin' slightly bazurk)

Ok - Edit by Me -: Fair enough, I'm stuck in bed with horrible flu! The reason this thread was convoluted was I was trying to explain to Richard locally here in Sydney just how the planning laws have changed, we have had a despot politician named "Frank Sartor" who basically threw out all planning laws and re-wrote the book on Sydney to fit another 3 million people into the City corridors. basically he flipped the laws. I was also explaining to Richard how now with a "Production facility/Company" you do not need such D.A planning as in the USA or Australia when building a "Private Studio", commercial facilities are different. I was also explaining how to address a D.A in local slang & that also it is better to build before he deals with new neighbours, where to find the info on CSR building supplies here in Australia - (This is a great basic guide for people to learn their Brick and inner 1, 2, & 3 leaf designs and what is possible, some great Info, though all on OZ product, it's a massive Red book guide PDF file & others whom find Maths hard may deal with this guide in a better way.) I will try to link it for all in the Materials section as its a 1,2,3 step process and great easy learning. The Acoustic Material Richard is using is new and he was made to sign a NDA which muddies waters, though in terms of "building supplies" locally I was speaking in "Local Tongue" as Richard does not wish to give to much away. These jokes about being a Secret Acoustic squirrel where just simply as there are really no acoustic secrets left, these days, they seem to leak like a sieve. There was a great deal of local discussion in the posts, though as Richard now has basically what he asked for. The Aim of building close in a residential scenario with High SPL's not disturbing others I feel is achievable if Richard builds in a certain fashion. So, I will apologise to Ro ..... (Apologies Ro - Some of this post was answered with PM's in context), No sleep, high Temp, Cough, hot then Cold, feel like every bone aches and no awaiting blood test yada... yada I may be a Pig, though let's hope I don't have swine flu. Apologies to JLS members. Perhaps non disclosure posts are not the best posts to sink your teeth into. Apologies Richard. Edit -ADDA

Hey, Adda, I'm not sure what the problem us, but I don't think Ro deserved that at all! To me, it seems that he was making a humorous comment on your writing style, which I have to agree with: You really are hard to follow sometimes! Your incomplete sentences, dotted with unintelligible slang, and wildly wandering grammatical structures, sure does make it tough to figure out what you are trying to say! And then you have to consider that English isn't even Ro's home language: I'd like to see how well you'd do trying to understand his posts, if suddenly started posting in meandering incomplete Dutch street slang... :) Or how well you'd do if Javier and I started waffling in incomprehensible Chilean street Spanish... :!: Anyway, I wanted to point out that your outburst seems rather uncalled for. - Stuart -

Hi Stuart Wow, that is priceless information! I suspected my figures were "a bit off". :-) [Although I wonder how loud the simian 'Tap drummer is when s/he explodes?] ADDA - thanks for the links!! Now for some more reading. Thanks again everyone. Hijack away. Richard

OK, Adda. Understood. Cool by me.

No sleep, high Temp, Cough, hot then Cold, feel like every bone aches and no awaiting blood test yada... yada ... I may be a Pig, though let's hope I don't have swine flu.

Oh yeah! I know ALL about that!!! Been there, done that... And still recovering. That's why I've been off the forum for the past couple of weeks. First a trip to Brazil for an installation, then the whole family comes down with the jolly old swine flu! Fun it ain't. I sure wasn't in the mood for posting much. So I understand you perfectly, Adda, and I hope you are getting good treatment. At least the government is giving away Tamiflu here to everyone who gets the swine flu, and it sure does help, but the whole things still isn't pleasant, I can tell you. My treatment course finished several days ago, but I still have the cough and general blues. (Just telling you so that you'll know what to expect for next week, if it is the swine flue that you have, and it sounds like you do! :) ) All I can do is wish you the best with that. - Stuart -

Yes, I now take Tamiflu & am locked in one part of my house, can't see others for 2 weeks from yesterday, no girlie, or kids so Zip. Don't have hard strain Swine flu, though combo so Urgggh, though I have Laptop, keyboard/USB, Guitar and If I go out I have to wear mask, $4 bucks each in a ten pack? Talk Money! Doctor & Bloods needles make me pass out. I faint At least My newsagent will throw my stuff over my fence (cool guy - extra half mile in walking just for me & my magazines. So this little piggy with aches & pains + head like a swollen melon, cough, nose run, 4 boxes of MAN size tissues and more to go, my face is red roar from those, need girlie things. Women have no sympathy for big sick cry baby Men - suffer as we do she says.... so i will do! Not happy boy about it though 2 weeks OUCH! Thank you boys, Shit I must have been very fuzzy!http://www.johnlsayers.com/phpBB2/posting.php?mode=reply&f=1&t=13222# Thanks Stuart & Ro (kind Men) ADDA

are you quarantined? damn... keep it up Adda!

keep it up Adda!

Ro, your support has been invaluable, sh*t I have no idea what would of happened! Though 10 x Tamiflu & lots of Codeine - Ahhh! Seriously (Sorry, All, Ro, Richard, & Stu re: Hijack) though if YOU do feel Flu & have the normal symptoms go straight to Doctor. No joke! I had no idea, inside such a raging beast of a cross virus. Please People beware! Wash hands always. Let's hope Greenfield is on track with Ray Tracing 140! Another week in bed for me! Urggh Cheers (Jezz) ADDA.

damn ADDA!

Some of my bookmarks gathered over the years: Sound Transmission stuff Stc,nrc,cac, etc At some point all these links come back here, so hopefully using my site as a reference will not be considered as pilfering :)

GREAT! (you the owner of that site? )

Yes I do, collected the links, wrote the content and designed the concept/site. Sorry about the delay Ro...

haha, that's okay Brien. :mrgreen:

Yep, I'm talking to DH. I want to hear ZR before deciding on an approach.

Hi I thought I should post my findings regarding Delta H Designs' ZR Acoustics. I've worked in a fair number of studios over the past 25 years and I have often been disappointed with the sound of the control room. As part of my studio design, I wanted to maximise room transparency/accuracy and minimise fatigue and guess work. I also wanted to maximise the use of floor space. I had read about ZR and I was very curious. So in a trip to the States, I had several listens to a bunch of Delta H Designs ZR Acoustics rooms, including Universal Music's new mastering facility in LA. I took a bunch of my mixes. I was very impressed with the transparency and detail, and the size of the "sweet spot". I stood in corners, sat on the floor in corners, lay on the floor, sat in windowsills (yes, windows!), by the door, etc - the stereo image was always there and there was virtually no bass buildup. I spent hours trying to critique the room "sound". I wanted to find problems. All I ended up doing was critiquing the mixes and the monitoring in each room. That was unexpected. I expect that these rooms would not contribute to listening fatigue. So: ZR Acoustics is real and it's in use in top studios. And the owners/studio staff seemed pretty chuffed when I asked them about it. I'm not prone to hyperbole (and just to be clear I'm not being paid to say this! :-)), but to my ears the result of the ZR Acoustics approach is incredibly close to the neutral room sound that I have always wanted. So close in fact that I have engaged them to help with the design of my Sydney studio: control room+live room. I anticipate that a bunch of people won't believe me, and I don't blame you - a healthy dose of skepticism is a good thing. I also appreciate that this is not entirely "on topic" - many of the people on this site are building DIY home studios, and this may not be for you. But for folks who are interested, if you get the opportunity, I recommend you have a listen to a ZR room and decide for yourself. That's the only way - trust your ears. I'll post again when the studio is built and give some more feedback. Forgive me for a little bit more hype, but the Delta H Design folks are a pleasure to work with too - across the Pond! Thanks Richard
