Hey this is my first post. Well I am in Virginia Beach, Virginia. I am an Audio Post Engineer. I am in the process of converting one of my rooms into a studio for post production and some music. I have read many posts in this forumn and many in Ethans Winer's great stuff. I am a Full Sail Graduate and have been in the recording field for five years or so. Well I am going to post the drawnings of what I am thinking of doing. I have already bought I pack of 2'' 703 and that was a bit pricey. So for the rest I will use some 2'' mineral wool. I plan on making some removable sound boxes to cover the windows. There are two of these. Something like two layers of drywall on inside with 703 on the outside. I will seal this airtight. Ok my room Dimensions are 11.1x11.3x8 thats LxWxH. I know this is not a great room to use but its what I have. So I am hoping with the drawnings below someone can tell me what they think. I have also included drawings of the walls and Ceiling with the treatments that I will be putting up. In the corners right now i have some foam base traps(yes i know i put them up before i knew) I will leave them and just make some panels using 2'' 703 or mineral wool. I will mount these 4'' off the wall, which will take up 6'' all around my room, but hey thats the game right. My computer is in the closet and has a sound proof enclosure that I have built in the corner for it.(I still have to fiugure out how to keep it cool) Any help opinions would be great. I will be looking to do this in the next few months. anyway Im trying to make sure I dont leave anything out because i read the rules and stuff and well we all know what happens when you dont.
The equipement that I have :
Monitors: KRK RP8
Board: Mackie 1640 w firewire option
Software: Nuendo
Mics: MXL 2003, C1
Monitors: 2-19'' LCD
Again thank you all for any help. Take care Ryan :D :idea:
