Thnks man Although i can't take any credit for it!!! I hired an architect for my studio, the same guy that did Jens Bogrens studio, Studio fredman etc.
If you are gonna put up real bas traps then its best to hire an architect so its done correct, atleast consult an architect so you know what the heck you're doing money well spent

 

[Metaltastic]

Yeah, it's especially impressive that you're able to have the frequency response of the room almost flat despite how small it is; that's gotta be some seriously well-tuned bass absorption!

you can check out my build blog:

As you can see we first build a wall on first original wall with 2inch4 with 3 layers of drywall to seal of the air. And then we build the bass traps in 3 shelf layers to cover all frequency's... Well this wasnt a construction thread right?? hahaha rock on

Cheers

Bass traps. My room is tiny. I have traps in all 4 corners, at left and right of my listening position and above my listening position.

similar to sum of the stuff in my rack jeid!!

I thought I'd noticed the comparison in our racks before... I just couldn't remember who it was

Good shit though, I've just scrimping money together for some new mics and I'll be nearly happy with my setup. It's getting there, I've only been properly into recording since last May. I pissed about before that, but I'm trying to do as much as I can now

I agree man. It's nice for a beginner with it just sitting on a shelf or something, or someone using it mobile, but very annoying when you have a nice stationary setup. I'm going to place my Presonus gear in my desk with an open slot above it, and just snake the cables through there back to my patch bay

Runs into this (bottom right hand rack unit on the desk):

The other 4 go to the tube pres and the mbox 2, I didn't want to invest in a XLR patch bay just for access to 4 mic inputs.

The whole you see to the top was for a male XLR out to reamp but I forgot to order it .

 

[jeid]

I need to get a reamp box. I wanna record my SL-X in a big room sometime.

By the way, with this type of speakers, how big an issue are reflections from nearby objects? For example, does the big display interfere with the sound a lot? I see the setup is quite mobile, do you get it out of the way during critical listening? How much time do you find yourself using the computer as opposed to tweaking the gear? Sorry for the barrage of questions, but I've never been in such a room... well, in my dreams, perhaps

Absolutely...I prefer the display be placed off to the side for several reasons (easier for clients to see, less of a visual distraction, etc.). You do have to be careful about first order reflections coming back to the listening position. A convenient location for a display when editing is usually not the best location when listening critically, which is why I put it on wheels. It's more flexible and can be easily moved if needed. It's a bit more work to wire it up this way but well worth it.

The bulk of my sessions are spent adjusting the sound at the desk. During the first 90% of most sessions, the computer is just for playback and record, so I'm spending most of my time in the listening position. Once the editing and assembly stage begins, I'm usually switching back and forth between being in the listening position for QC and in front of the display for easier editing.

You're welcome to pop in anytime Shadow Walker, next time you find yourself in New York!

"Yo dawg, I heard you like mixing, so we put some monitors on top of your monitors, so you can listen while you listen"

Haha! Yeah bro, now I can mix two songs at once, huuuge time savings

Hahaha, you think THAT one's good.... Should have posted a pic of the wall left of my desk....

It looks really good in person, the background of the poster almost exactly matches the wall paint.

But on the flip-side it can be terrifying sometimes waking up suddenly to eddie ripping through my wall

 

[Metaltastic]

Alright, if it's become "post pictures of your Seventh Son posters", then I guess I gotta man up

FUN FACT: I was once flipping channels a few years ago during the ungodly hours of daytime TV, and stumbled across an episode of McGyver where some delinquent kid had the exact same poster on his wall

Great poster, awesome story.

Don't you mean "awesome story bro"?

 

[Mattayus]

A humble set up but... it's always growing. Ignore the err... gun. Was moving shit around before taking the pics, it wasn't positioned there as a representation of my mixing methods

 

[MetalJonesy]

ah the ole alesis dm5pro kit!
