Noise

The lack of sound isolation will be a problem. Reverbrant rooms can be effectively 5-6 dB more 'sensitive' to incoming noise than deadened treated rooms. Also if you use high SPL's the will surely be audible upstairs in your Control Room. Do you use Convolution Reverb, e.g. Altiverb? If so, I suggest you sample the space at a quiet time and use that.
I have an irrational turn against anything Behringer. If you are sampling the room or experimenting with it I suggest trying some different mics. Clue- the classic chambers at Cello Studios used SM57's. I would go for an Omni Dynamic, a talkback mic.
