check it out so far.
Thx Mike, very helpful link. As I have coved ceilings and there seems to be a lot more bass directly in the top and bottom corners where wall meets wall, I thought I might build 6' high 2' wide absorbers as well as 1' high 2' wide superchunk bass traps for the corners. I would place a super chunk in the floor corner (built with a triangular hard surface so that I could place the removable 2' wide 6' high absorber on top and then another 1' high superchunk on top of the absorber in the top ceiling corner. I would do this in all the corners, what do you all think?

Maybe a gobo style to put between myself and my recording desk (computer noise and rear absorption/reflection)

It is a bit of a combination of two of the projects I seen on Johnlsayers.com. I'd like to keep the absorbers mobile as I have two residential spaces to record as well, the coved ceilings make it difficult for the regular 4' high by 2' wide absorber to fully contact the ceiling, there is about 4" of space where the cove wont allow it to meet the ceiling.
