You can get some great sounds from a nice big room. Why don't you treat the walls and ceiling of the garage with some 703 and buy a rug that you can roll up when you're not tracking? That way you could have 2 iso booths and a nice little live room for drums. |
Good point on the control room. I suppose I could put a small closet behind the false wallthumbsup...
Another good point on the drums. We had actually thought of this. My garage is huge though and I don't know if I can afford enough 703 to treat the whole thing. I also don't know if my better half will allow it. We debated building some sort of removable isolation (like a folding frame with a cloud we could mount on top) so we could record drums in the garage though and I think it's a good thought. My concern is that I'd have to use a lot of bass trapping in such a small room like I have drawn to get a good sound and decent isolation. I don't know how much room will be left after adding traps.....
