Interesting - in this case it's a 100amp sub-panel, which ... might be a separate concern with noise coming down from the main panel to begin with? It is however 240v split, so I could arrange the circuits on each side as clean and dirty as you suggest.

Hi Guys - question on my electrical setup. I basically have two options - one 20amp circuit for the entire room, or two circuits (maybe a 15amp) just for lights - my thought process was to keep the dimmers on a separate circuit to reduce noise. Practically however a single circuit for a few LED ligh...

Thanks Both! When filling the stud bays, beyond just filling everything with Rockwool - am I missing an opportunity to leverage the available space to get ahead of bass treatment? Say for example filling the lower third of the stud bays with Corning 703 as is commonly used in bass traps. One of reas...

Hi All - I have some questions about practical 'finishing' of inside out walls and logistics. I'm posting here vs the design board, however here is my recent design post https://digistar.cl/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1143 I have an inside out ceiling and two long inside out walls to finish. I pla...

Modelling error :D Cutting some corners in sketchup for the post, but thanks for pointing that out. I'll add in an extension / sleeve to my design to make sure it's all goi...

Thanks Glenn! I’ve worked out an initial design for some silencers – I’m looking at a small Fantech ERV that is rated for 70cfm at .4 in wg (FIT70E). It’s got 4” round duct connectors, I ‘m estimating about 25’ total length between the ERV/Outside/Silencers. 400’ of equivalent silencer duct (~100’ p...

Hi Glenn and Stuart - thanks for your replies! On the topic of the door - decoupling the door frame in this way makes perfect sense and is in fact how I've built the window frame. I will incorporate this. Unfortunately the sliding door option is out, as the room is already built - I didn't even cons...

Hi All - This is my first post! The detail and discussion I’ve found on this forum has been extremely helpful. I have an in progress studio/practice room build going, and have a few outstanding questions I’d appreciate some advice on. This build is 1/2 garage conversion and has been going on for a f...
