I have been planing to record som minor stuff at home and i have a few ideas that may need some response.
I have a 2,5x4 meter (8x13 feet) room and a peavey 6505 with a 4x12. As long as i do not need earplugs, the neighbours will not bother.
I understand that such as small room will not give me very good recordings and since it is my bedroom i dont wanna put upp absorbers all over the walls.
First of all im gonna get a attenuator, some cheap DIY that do not cost 400bucks. Then i will put some pyramid foam, like 3 inches, in front of the cabinet so it will be airtight and I make a small hole for a SM-57 connected to my zoom h4n. I guess the pyramid foam will seal in the treble but not the bas? Would even thicker foam do better for the bas?
I also wonder what would happend with the sound if i disconnected 3 of the 4 elements in the cabinet? Since i put the mic in front of just one of them, the others would do nothing but disturb the neighbours?
Would an extra condeser mic for ~100$ do any good?
