  • timo6600, 4 January 2016Dear all, Firstly, thanks to all who contribute here, have been obsessively reading and enjoying for some time. Now the time has finally come to build my own studio. I…
  • Soundman2020, 4 January 2016Hi Tim, and welcome! :) First thing I noticed is that "possible future wall - not in out control". If you have no control over whether or not that wall will appear, then…
  • timo6600, 5 January 2016I can't count the number of posts I've read from you and I've learned so much from your posts - great that you've joined here – thanks so much! So does this mean only…
  • timo6600, 7 January 2016Just thought I would add this image showing the actual usable area. Image not preserved: usablearea.jpg I'm kind of digesting the feedback and realising the whole…
  • Soundman2020, 18 January 2016:thu: Sorry to be a bit slow on replying to yours, but times are busy right now! Got quite a few projects on the go... It works like this: low frequency isolation (and…
  • timo6600, 22 January 2016Hi Stuart, Thanks so much for catalysing my ideas - incubation lab full steam! Took me a while to digest this and then redesign but great food for thought so thanks!…
  • timo6600, 29 January 2016OK so here is an update - I had to change the room dimensions (smaller- grrr - I won't go into why). So how does this look? Image not preserved: 6.1skp.jpg Image not…
  • Soundman2020, 2 February 2016That's a pity! But it can still work... Much, much better! I think you can still save a bit more space on the side walls by not taking them so far back in the room, and…
  • timo6600, 2 February 2016Hey Stuart, Yay thanks! So how's this: Image not preserved: studio7.jpg Image not preserved: studio7ray.jpg So what I actually meant here was questions about this: Image…
  • Soundman2020, 4 February 2016A better way to do it: Image not preserved: soffit details-2b.jpg To a certain extent, yes, but it is nothing to worry about, if you do it correctly. No, not at all.…
  • timo6600, 4 February 2016wow that's much more simple. I like that! Thanks! :) oh good to know.... wait a minute! 'do it correctly'?? Exactly what do you mean by that? so is the best way to…
  • Soundman2020, 5 February 2016Yep. That's always the best plan: as soon as the room shell itself is complete (walls, floor, ceiling, doors, windows, HVAC, electrical, etc.) but BEFORE any treatment…
  • timo6600, 5 February 2016Hi Stuart, OK well time to start building then! (after I've levelled the floor with self levelling concrete) I will consider taking your subtle hints on board. (you…
  • timo6600, 25 February 2016Just a quick few question if you are around, Stuart. - As I am using different material thicknesses for the walls (they are all the same dimensions, but on layer of 19mm…
  • Soundman2020, 25 February 2016Are we talking about different thickness of layers in the same leaf, or different thicknesses of actual leaves ? That's two different things.... It's confusing, as you…
  • timo6600, 26 February 2016Well I was referring to different leaf thicknesses. But same question goes for layers in the leaf too I suppose. Sorry, was a little confusing. So, yes, what is the…
  • Soundman2020, 26 February 2016For maximum isolation, the two leaves should be the same surface density (kg/m2). If you use the same materials on both, then that implies that they should be the same…
  • timo6600, 4 March 2016That's great, Stuart, thanks for the detailed response! Needless to say my CPU is crunching that info in order to try and make sense of it - as well as that I am trying…
