Hi,
I need help ! I have just been moved into this room. Trying to make it work as a control room but the low end seems out of wack.
I'm using Mackie HR824s at their normal settings & I'm facing the window about 57" away, with the door off to my left side. Am I sitting in the best listening position?
I also have drapes covering the window to make it less reflective. The ceiling is 8' high drywall with insulation (safe & sound?). The walls are also drywall with insulation (safe & sound?).
In Hand, I have 6 GIK244s (front corners & top & bottom), 6 afeo Panels(aygo broadband? traps), across the corners at the back. Also there are Primacoustic foam panels at the side walls between the speakers and the listening position. Do I need any diffusion? Am I trapping the bass correctly?
Appreciate any advice.
Thanks!
Dave
