24 x 24 studio

hi all. i am new around here and have been reading and researching the site for my next studio. good stuff! i wanted to thank john, and everyone for their expertiece and help. anyway, i have drawn up a plan based on the corner control room setup and was hoping for some feedback to make sure i am on the right track. i am on a mac so i drew the diagram freehand (lord help us all) so it might be a bit hard to read. we are building a new garage (outside dimensions are 36ft. X 24ft.). the studio is going to be completely free floating in within the 24 x 24 area. the plan at the moment is to float the floor and build the frame of a new floor on it, so all cables can be run under the flooring and to appropriate areas of the studio. the ceilings are going to be 9 ft. from ceiling to the concrete (so with the new floor it will be closer to 8 1/2ft.). let me know if you need anymore info. any feedback would be appreciated. thanks for this great forum! -john

just an idea could you incorporate more of the space into the studio? whats the ceiling height?

thanks for the reply. the ceiling height will be 8 1/2 feet. my intial plan is to have seperate rooms to track in. i really want to have a vocal booth....and i figured that the guitar room and drum rooms wouldn't require much more work (since i am building from the ground up. i will be spending most of my time in the control room which is why it is the largest room...the last thing i'd want is for it to feel cramped. btw, i am working on a better picture of the studio. i hope to have it up today or tomorrow.

Hi John! I came out with a similar idea to devide my (nearly) square room: http://www.johnlsayers.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=3387 I didn't plan a vocal both, because I want to use the rooms for rehearsals with my band as well. cheers Carsten
