  • AtomShadow, 15 February 2012Hello, I'm Filippo, I write from Sardinia. I really hope you can land me a hand with my studio. As you'll see in the attached file, it's a little home studio made up of…

  • AtomShadow, 21 February 2012Hi guys, I'm back with the pictures and the room analysis report. It's all in the attachments. :mrgreen: If there's something missing just let me know! Image not…
  • Soundman2020, 21 February 2012The most important part of the spectrum is the low end, between around 20 and 250 Hz. Also, on your waterfall plots, you are showing way too much range on the vertical…
  • AtomShadow, 22 February 2012I've attached the revised analysis file, as suggested. @xSpace: I'm sorry but I didn't understand your last message! Can you explain it to me in other words? Thank you…

  • Soundman2020, 25 February 2012That's not ringing. It looks more like modes to me. I'm looking at your SketchUp model, but it shows two rooms with no labels: one is rectangular and measures 4.1 x 2.2…
  • AtomShadow, 26 February 2012Thanks a lot for all your replies and hints. I've attached another sketchup file where you can see my alternative idea, which is to invert the rooms and place the…
  • AtomShadow, 26 February 2012Ok! I’ll leave things as they are... Would you mind take a look at the pictures and tell me if I understood correctly? I would also like to know if is possible to fit…
  • AtomShadow, 27 February 2012Thank you very much for your reply! What type of fiberglass or rockwool is better for works to be done? I found these: Fiberglass: 15 kg/m3, 5 cm thick 15 kg/m3, 8 cm…
  • AtomShadow, 17 March 2012I have finished the work of the two rooms, I made the long walls of the old live room parallel and the size of this room are now 5.1 meters long, 2.23 wide and 2.60…

  • AtomShadow, 27 March 2012Thanks BriHar for your reply! :) You're right about the sketch, but in the end I opted for a simpler solution and I put my monitors on monitor stands... Nobody has…
  • Soundman2020, 28 March 2012The acoustics will be different in different locations in the room, and the response of the room as a whole can change, depending on the position of the speakers. For…
  • AtomShadow, 28 March 2012Thanks for your precious explanations Soundman2020 :) I'm sorry but I can not attach photos at this moment because I still have all disassembled in the control room... I…
  • Soundman2020, 28 March 2012You might want to spread your speakers a bit further apart. With that layout, your head is too close to the front wall for optimum acoustics. If you spread your speakers…
  • AtomShadow, 28 March 2012thanks for the advice about the listening position and the correct position of the monitor... regarding the settings in the rear of the monitors, I have not used any…
  • Soundman2020, 28 March 2012The controls are there for a purpose! They have nothing to with the acoustics of the room: rather, they correct the interaction of the speaker with the room boundaries.…
  • AtomShadow, 3 April 2012I run again the tests following the directions of Soundman2020, I placed the room control to -4 dB ... I also changed the listening position that is now at a distance of…
  • AtomShadow, 13 September 2012Hello, it's been a while since I last wrote ... I finished all the work I had been suggested. Thank you very much to all for the valuable information! I did a test…
  • Soundman2020, 26 September 2012I', not seeing that on the graphs, though, so perhaps you did not set up the speaker and mics in the same position where you were playing and listening? There seems to…
  • AtomShadow, 27 September 2012I'm sorry, you're right, I loaded the graphics of the control room rather than those of the recording room. I have now uploaded the correct ones. I made ​​the…
  • AtomShadow, 4 October 2012Thank you very much for your reply! So if the recording room has no problems, I will make the new recordings trying to move the mic in other points :) what do you think…
  • AtomShadow, 13 October 2012Thanks Stuart for your reply. I attach some photos of the room so you can see where I put the panels. In all four corners there are superchunks, in the corner on the…

  • AtomShadow, 27 October 2012Only the 2 panels that I have indicated with the red arrow and the cloud panel over the control surface are so thin, others are thicker. I explained everything in the…
