4 Mondotraps and 4 minitraps. is that enoughe ??

OK, So I tried to do it in scale and I tried to place the traps by my self... Please let me know if you would have done something different. Cieling is still not treated Room is: 16.24ft x 11.31ft and 8.53ft high. Green = Mondo traps Brown/yellow = Mini traps Grey = Desk wit computer Black= Monitors on stands (so that come off the wall) Dark blue = Bookshelf Red = Sofa Grey lines = windows Dark green = racks Any help would be great !! THANKS PS. were can I buy realtraps (mondo and mini) in Europe ???

I'd reverse the layout so you desk is at the window end. cheers john

Thanks for your reply.. The problem is (forgot to say that) that it´s not really a window but a BIG window with a Glass door to a balkony :-/ So if I put the desk there I would have to put it too far back in the room :( Do you think it´s ok anyway ??

Greetings before you splash out on Mini-traps and Mondo traps you might consider alternative means of Standing wave absorption. ( Which affect frequencies from around 30Hz to upto aroudn 500Hz in most average rooms - NOT just the bass ) I would recommend broadband absorption, such as Foam or DIY rockwool slab constructions Here's comparative test results for two commerical devices and DIY solutions. You can see the Auralex MegaLENRDS and DIY rockwool designs perform the best. hope that helps Paul

Oh and btw - don't put standing wave traps flat against a surface, The bass aborption performance is GREATLY DIMINISHED. enough to make them not worth it. Place at 45 deg across a corner. Vertical ( wall-wall ) corners, or Horizontal corners ( wall-ceiling, wall-floor ) can both be used. The BEST place is tri-corners ( wall-wall-ceiling, wall-walll-floor ). As well as standing wave trapping, you also ideally want Early Reflection absorption. The place for this absorption is easily done by the mirror trick. Sit in your mix position and get a friedn to move a mirror around all surfaces of the room. Wherever you can see a speaker, this is where to palce the absoprtion panels. An air gap behind them will increase their performance considerably ( and is FREE :) ) hth Paul
