Something else that has intrigued me is the use of magnetic weatherstrip in Rod's door design. Of course there would have to be a corresponding steel strip on the door for this. I used a magentic seal, it's basically like a fridge door strip on 3 sides, and a vinyl compression strip on the hinge si...

Thanks Stuart! great analysis and points. I did not know about the speakers on their side effect! I did build the framing in such a way that I could replace the speakers with something like Neumann KH 310s if the budget ever became available! As for the XPS, yes, excellent point. Let me address: The...

4067 the room sounds great, very controlled for drums (it's certainly not a live room, but that's fine for the size). :thu: Mission accomplished! :yahoo: Wow! It looks great, and sounds great, so you should be celebrating! ... And making music!!! - Stuart - Thanks Stuart, glad to see you back! When...

Looking good! Change the scale on your graphs ... those are kinda unusable (unnaturally flattering). You want something like 35 - 100db on the graph, and 1/48 or 1/24 smoothing for looking at problem areas. I know this is just initial tests, but if you keep things consistent now, it's much easier to...

3659 Wow it’s coming along! Just wanted to pick up on one thing you said: 3655 The framed wall will be made with metal framing (5cm) with one layer of plasterboard on the brick facing side, filled with rock wool and two layers on the outside. The most outer layer damp resistant. This will make the ...

Maybe a little late, but have you considered audio over cat6 cable? 1 cable will run 4 balanced audio signals ... way fewer wires for spares, or even main. https://www.amazon.ca/Lyxpro-Channel-Connect-4-channle-Ethercon/dp/B0771WBHHC/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=xlr+to+cat6&qid=1619327491&am...

Did you say 1081 Euro for all that concrete?? wow that is cheap! In Canada, I think my garage pad cost ~$5,000 !

In case you're curious, here is how the room measures. Considering I really didn't set out to build a control room (it is a drum room after all!) it actually turned out pretty good. I can probably get it cleaned up a bit, but that's low on the priority now ... the room sounds great, very controlled ...

3477 Arek, that is looking so good. I have one question as it looks as though all of your wall traps are away from the wall at the top but touching at the bottom. Is that the plan? Or would you benefit from adding a spacer lower down on the back of each trap to keep them away from the walls and thu...

Basically in the home stretch now! Finished the return air baffle box, and the electrical and wiring. 20210314_151153.jpg 20210313_160115.jpg Built a 2" door, with 2x 2/4" particle board, and 2x 1/4" MLV sheet in between 20210313_193354.jpg After some measurements, I rebuilt the front...

Yes .. and also buy a laser level! So much better ... I use mine for everything, including resetting the measurement mic in the percise same position each time.

3361 That room is looking fantastic. I love the recessed lights in the clouds. It looks seamless. How big is your space? Thanks! The room (drywall to drywall) is 21'6" (625cm) x 12'3" (375cm) and 7'3" (219cm). Working on the desk side now ... got the basic structure done and temporar...

Yeah, it's pretty unfortunate, but I guess we have the past posts (here and on JS) to draw from. I had alwasy expected to be on my own in the endeavor, so when i found this forum, with basically personal and very detailed advice given by one of the experts in the field, I was super excited. Unfortun...

3346 That is very classy looking and all of us who are way behind you in progress are both pleased and jealous you have got this far. I hope the tests show that the room does indeed sound as good as it looks. Absolutely, I hope so as well! I will definitely need some help interpreting the results o...

So close I can taste the sweating! :D Time for some room measurements to see where we're at. The room sounds pretty dead, so I might add more hard surfaces to liven it a bit, but testing first to get a baseline. And to see if there are any major issues ... unlikely I would be able to do anything abo...
