Advice on potential mix room

[Gunnerfeldt]

I've got an offer on this new room. It's a lovely loft with windows. I've spent 2 days playing music and doing some tests. This is the best plot I got. I got some better sweet spot readings when moving to weird places and closer up to the speakers, but this is more or less the spot where I need to sit in the end.

The slanted ceilings makes it hard for me to guess what to expect from treatment. There's plenty of corners to use for trapping but the overhead ceiling is quite close. My biggest issue when I audition music and tones seem to be the 200Hz peak and I'm guessing it's the floor-ceiling mode .. but I'm not sure. The dip underneath makes it worse of course, but to my ears that dip is not as crucial as the peak.

The 40Hz in the plot is the ventilation and the random 50Hz rumble is the studio next door (actually no door at the moment, that's why).

So, just fishing for thoughts. Do you see any pitfalls? Should I pursue or back out?
The location is a big plus so I'm hoping for the best.

Best,
Pelle

Hi there Pelle, and Welcome to the forum!

That's a very challenging room to set up and treat, due to the shape and dimensions, as well as the structural members. I would like to see your actual impulse response data, to analyze it properly. However, I'm not at all familiar with FuzzMeasure: I'm totally REW myself! So please could you export each of your measurements as a pure impulse response file, then I can import those into REW and analyze them.

Thanks!
I will do tomorrow.

I did a quick dive into REW .. imported the responses and also did a complimented measurement just to see if it differed.

The files are:

Listening Pos - Both Spkrs.wav.zip - (48k 24bit, from FuzzMeasure)

Spkr LF Lo Corner. Mic RR Hi Corner.wav.zip - (48k 24bit, from FuzzMeasure)

REW Measure.wav.zip - (48k 16bit, recreated measure with REW. Should match the "Listening Pos - Both Spkrs")

Thanks!!
