Hi jiindrich,

I actually used the bigger frames for the "drum corner" of my recording room - especially on the hihat side to avoid those nasty early reflections.

My concept for the control room was more a mixed pattern from absorbtion and reflection. I experimented alot and through having more wall space between them the smaller frames create a nicer spatial image in the end. Too big areas of absorbtion easily make the room muddy.

The very small frames ( say 10 x 5 cm) would have been even better -creating allmost some kind of diffusion but this would have been a lot more work.

2nd reason for the smaller frames is visual - many small elements make a small room look bigger than little big ones...

Right, less is more in the end.
I find myself using more and more the same stuff (gml + neve) and if I need something else the other day I eventually use...errr gml + neve hrhr..

I removed the side racks cause I found it really strange to tweak things not being in the sweet spot.
Now everything is in hands reach - right the one rack is a bit near the left quested - doesn´t make much of a difference since tweeter still is in sightline.
