I just moved my studio into the living area of my current flat, pretty big room, long with wooden floors. The frequency response and stereo imaging is much better than the small room, but the reverberation is obviously much worse. If I want to work on a sound in any detail I have to use headphones (whereas in the small room I had to use headphones if I wanted to hear any semblance of an even frequency response ).
I guess it would take a huge amount of absorption materials to make any impact.
Would a larger room such as this not require more work than a smaller room in the end?

Try to be either top floor or ground floor so you don't have neighbors above AND below, maybe even try to find a corner unit.
Yeah that was my thinking too, ground floor would reduce my bass worries any way.
