I found two potential buildings:
1st is about 250 sqm, aprox. 8 meters height, in a pretty noisy location
2nd is about 200-230 sqm, aprox. 5 meters height, floor 1, quiet location.
My problem is that I don’t know how I should distribute the space in order to be able to record bands, orchestra, and choirs, have a nice relaxation space… and what else??
I want to be able to cover as much as possible of the whole studio areas  |
The first question that springs to mind is why the quiet location is quiet, and why the noisy one is noisey? If it's noisey because it's a more industrial area, then you have less worry about ay sound coming out of your place. This may save you money in lisolation costs. If teh quiet area is heavily residential, you may be looking at having to make the place really isolated.
I'd be inclined to go for the larger space, all other condierations aside. There's never enough room, and always things one didn't consider needing space for.
