Don't plan on doing much microphone work in either room.

For mixing, grooving, and midi/DI stuff, I'd pick the room that's 13x10. The other room has dimensions that are way too similar (11'2" and 11'6" are essentially the same measurement).

Plan on a lot of bass traps in each wall corner and all the way around the corner of the ceiling. Probably will need several 2'x2'x4" absorbtion pannels too (I like the cotton stuff if I have to build it myself).
