As far as treatments...Auralex LENRDs won't help you much in either function. The Auralex VENUS, GIK Monsters...etc...thicker heavy duty traps are needed.
Also, a cloud above mix in the range of 8'x8'x4" is a must.
Think about four or so of the GIK 244 on stands behind the speakers in "B" set-up.
There's more to it obviously. The main point to keep at hand in this space will be careful monitor placement. Expect to take some time: weeks/months to get optimal in factors. Definetely a room to utilize measurements. Select three tracks as reference throughout the process that highlight balance, imaging and LF response. |
Thanks Jeffrey,
Could you elaborate more on why Plan A is a major compromise to mix position?
Also What benefits would I get from putting the GIK 244 panels behind the monitors? (like I said it might be cutting it close - the space between the monitors and the drum kit in "Plan B)
Thanks for taking the time!
I know its a long post guys, but anyone got anything?
