Any updates Jason?

With the remark that the details to "float" the loudspeaker in the soffit is not visible (present?), and it show cooling vents and ducts for a active loudspeaker to be used in this nice drawing. The soffit is described by Stuart, in the downloads part of the web-site, in how to design (par...

Hi Trevor,

It got very quiet here. All OK?

Regards, Frans

The first version of Soffit mounting the monitors. I have used soundman2020 flush mounting rules and Genelecs paper on soffit mounting. Added a bit of my flavor to that as I have a bit of a different use of my studio. Soundman2020 (Stuart) rules: 1) The speakers should not go in the corner, nor on t...

Hi, I am not an expert in the physical aspects of acoustics. My complements for the details you try to bring in here. My thoughts on this test are: - Maybe it is not comparing apples to apples. - You are using 2 kinds of resonating devices - If I understand it correctly you are trying to figure out ...

Version 2 of the layout. As I am still thinking of mixing in 5.1 Surround sound, I decided to prepare the studio for 5.1 speaker setup. So adding a center speaker and the 2 surrounds LS & RS. side note, I found a way to mix 5.1 on my analog mixing desk, which is an in-line 8 sub group 48 channel...

The first sketch of the studio layout. - Big rear wall trap with acoustic hangers 250 cm high at complete rear wall (361 cm) - Soffit speaker mount (Genelec 1030A & 7005C sub) - Broadband absorber at center of front wall (12cm Fiberglass & 12 cm air gap) - 2x acoustic hangers in both corners...

The test version of my mixing desk. Meanwhile it has been painted, now waiting for the acoustic treatment to finish.

5779 you can start with 2D in Sketchup - it's what i do. then after you have that, i make it into a template. from there i draw in walls, door openings, window openings etc. set views in each or from different corners in a room. so if you have decent isolation already - i'd look to add some additio...

Well may be as an addition, not so much physical treatment; It is interesting how we perceive sound, how we listen and how we correct. You mentioned the sound being "thin" where we perceive this as, we lack low end. Then the mind takes over and our initial reaction almost always is, "...

Hi, The pictures shows you are buying good gear, the room deserves equal treatment, as you are looking for. My first thoughts; - As suggest by others in this post, centre your desk and the speaker to the front wall for better stereo imaging. - Lot of work: turn the set up 180 degrees, mixing desk ag...

Hi Geoffroy, I think, as far as my knowledge goes, looking at the waterfall, you have come a long way. I did notice a few things, although based only on what you have published of course: - In the first picture of post #9, I can see the microphone on a stand, which I would suggest to change. How can...
