why no bass traps? I mean that foam can't really help low end wise, right?

Funny you say that because im fixing to put in 30 bass traps in... Low end is ok but I seem have a pretty big dip in places like 138 hz

Here is an impulse of my room [EDIT] With no smoothing

[EDIT] This is the same impulse with 1/24 smoothing. I zoomed out all the way to 20k so you can see the entire range.

Here is the area in google sketch up that bass traps are going in. Less tacky than the white on black foam [EDIT] lets hope it will fix these awful nulls.

Yikes, those nulls in the high-mids/highs are crazy; and to think I thought room modes only affected the low end! Looks great though man, very clean and sharp! (I dig the recessed rack on the left)

I know right ? And I wonder all this time how this has been affecting my mixing. Damn my room!

I suspect this is without smoothing, whereas most often people post curves with at least 1/24 smoothing.

There is some justification for the smoothing of frequency response curves - it makes them
more representative of what we hear. This makes sense if that is the point the manufacturer is
trying to make with the particular curve. But what if the manufacturer is trying to make the
point that his system has good summing at crossover frequency? In this case the
manufacturer might choose less smoothing to show just how good his product really is.

Yes you are right. That is without smoothing. I will edit my original post and put the with 1/24 smoothing in addition to the non-smoothing. Still have a few nasty nulls.
