Angled ceiling

Hi, I need to know if this is a good idea or not. I have a tracking room which is 15'X 14' X 8'. The ceiling has a 10 degree angle that starts at the back of the room and stops at the center of the room and then another that starts from that center and goes just above the control room window. Anyone can confirm it might be okay for reflections ? Thanks! Dan

?? Angles downward towards the CR room window? Your ceiling should be damped. (cover with rockwool or 703 ) as your ceiling height is low. :)

Seconding what Bryan wrote. The ceiling is too low to able to do anything effective with it in terms of reflections.

Thanks for the reply, I had some acoustic panels in mind in order to cover most of the ceiling but still is that a good idea to make an angle in the ceiling even tough it is low (below 8')? The ceiling angle toward the CR window. Dan

By angling it and having the panels follow your angles (meaning there is space between the ceiling and the panel) you will get some additional bass trapping benefits. :)

Is the 8 ft at the peak or at the wall? The theory is the same as with angled walls, to limit flutter echo between the cieling and floor. Sound has no notion of up or down, just of surfaces.

It's at the peak (center of the room).

So what is the height at the walls??

The height at the wall is about 7' 5.

The height at the wall is about 7' 5.

Ok, so just a 7" change. Slight slope. I'd come down at the wall edge to a ht of 6'6" with a false drop angled ceiling filling the false frame cavity with 3 or 4" Semi-Rigid Rockwool. Will give you some nice deadening of any possible ceiling reflections and some additional bass trapping area. :) You dont have to, you can just mount some panles on the ceiling to deaden it. I just like to get bass trapping wherever I can :)
