Aloha and welcome to the forum, cunhacordeiro :D Congrats on your studio build! Any chance you could please:

Edit your profile to include your location. This is very important, because this is a worldwide resource, and as such, material costs and availability vary widely. For example, masonry is cheaper than gypsum in some parts of the globe, whereas it's the exact opposite in other regions.

You'll probably get more of a response by doing so and this will really come in handy two or three posts down the road. It's also part of the forum guidelines: http://www.johnlsayers.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=3231 Thanks! :wink: Looking forward to your build! Aloha 8)

Aloha, A couple of questions, please... :)

A room with 6x7 m

- What's your ceiling height? - How many people do you see having to record at any given time? (single, trio, five or more?) Aloha 8)

Hi, the ceiling has 2.5 m...already with the isolation (dry wall ) believe max. 4 people, because the size of the room...I intend to record drums.. Tks a Lot

Aloha, Here's a variation of a plan by John that is very close to your measurements. Would something like this work for you? Aloha 8)

I believe that with some few changes will work in my case... But I have one doubt. The ceiling of the control room, exist some rule, angle ? In special, for this project of john?? Tks

Which the best place to place the doors?? tks [/url:t4fg3vwu]

Here's that plan version in your 6m x 7m building cheers john

Aloha, Awesome. Thank you, John. Aloha 8)

Tks Guys, but about the ceiling....exist any rule?? I need start a new post?? Tks

Aloha,

about the ceiling....exist any rule??

Just curious on the control room side wall angles.... On the SAE site, it specifies 6 degree side walls, yet in a great number of plans, I see anywhere from 12-20 degree side walls... what gives? depends on the space you have - 6 degrees is the minimum 12 is is the preferred cheers john Does this also apply for ceilings? Regards Simon simon - I prefer more than 6 for ceilings if possible. I've had pinging with 6. cheers john

TKS guys, I need a help again... which the type of ceiling I must construct?? in the control room.. tks [/url:2kfhizn3]

version 2 in your drawing cheers john

Tks John.... exists some rule to follow? ex. 12 degrees? For this control room, which would be the average height? Cheers Cristiano [/url:1mjva24m]

Cristiano - you want the ceiling to slope upwards to just past the listening position. You should be able to get a 12 degree angle in your 2.5m ceiling height. The front one can have either a hard surface in front with insulation behind, reflective, or the reverse with the insulation exposed, non reflective. - either way you need a hard surface to beakup the floor/ceiling parallel. For the rear it's best to make a straight cloud with no hard surface, just quality insulation to make it a bass trap. cheers john

something like this?? tks [/url:1rbmuicw] And another question...... I could place wood doors instead of sliding glass doors?
