Help with WILD live room acoustics!

David, can you describe your ceilings more thoroughly? Suspended, gypsum on joists, insulated, not, acoustic tile, etc - Also, what's on the REST of your surfaces, specifically? Steve

well, the ceilings are two layers of 5/8 sheetrock,hung on RC. walls are sheetrock, on steel studs. All has rockwool behind it.
For now, the floor is bare concrete. We had carpet down for a while temporarilly and that cut down the reflections pretty significantly.
I was thinking about pergo, but I'm afraid I'll never be able to control the room. The biggest problem is that the ceilings are so low ( basement, two layers ofsheetrock, hung on the RC) that I don't feel I can afford to put anything else on them. I haven't yet put any kind of absorbers etc on the walls..
hope that helps.
thanks a ton, as always
David

OK, got actual (3)dimensions of your room? Just realized the ones I've been considering are for the original thread's owner... Steve
