Herman Munster · 19th August 2007

I have a 23'x8'2'' area beside my garage that is currently not being used and I'd like to build it out into a studio. I think it will be tight though. I know some might argue I'd be better with one large room and an isolation booth, but I really need the ability to record a band all together live. My question is - will this work and how would you treat this room. This was a workshop so there's no treatment at all except open walls with some insulation and peg board. The iso booth will have to be built in the garage. I've still got to park my cars in here as well, so it can't be too big. Thoughts.... By the way, I live in a nearly zero traffic area in the country, so isolation from external noise is not a major issue.
