I couldn't angle it much due to wall thickness (lack of) but I guess I gained a little something. I put a question for you in the pic, if you'd be so kind to school me! It would be nice to have the window extend up a little further, to have better line of sight. I realize that will shoot reflections at mix pos, but is it something I could deal with if I'm producing someone I need to see, or will it just make a mess of things? I would definitely have a custom panel to fit over that portion of the window while mixing, mirrored by a panel on the other side of the room. I have tossed the idea around of having several small panels each maybe 1 ft wide, to add as needed to have an expandable RFZ. I could change between producing, critical tracking, mixing, and client presentation. I'd appreciate any thoughts you'd like to share. |
Okay, that looks better from a reflection standpoint.
Personally, I would stop the window properly for the RFZ, because I have spent a lot of time in rooms with setups as you suggest, and ultimately it's such a hassle nobody ever bothers to move the treatments around - they just get used to the smeared sound and live with it. I do not believe in windows that trash the RFZ, unless there is absolutely no other way to see out. I think you could probably live with the truncated glass, although I haven't really seen the bigger picture, with the two rooms together. If you could post that, it would be helpful.
