I'd err on the side of dead for a small control room like that, but make sure you deaden evenly across the frequency spectrum. You don't want to just put up thin blankets or foam and ignore bass trapping. Small rooms need proportionately more bass trapping, because the low frequency comb filtering is worse.

In a room that small, I'd start with bass traps in the corners and on the rear wall, with more absorption at the first reflection points. Once that's done, if you need more you can add more absorption at other places in the room.
