Actually, if you look at the photos near the end of the long photo story, you'll see that I put six panel traps up on the ceiling in the live room, plus four of the smaller 2x2 panel traps in various ceiling wall corners, and I also have two of Ethan's Mondo traps on stands in two of the corners. Plus, I have 2 more Mondo traps on stands in the control room, plus four of the GIK Acoustic Monster traps on stands in the control room. The idea behind putting all those traps on stands is that I could move them into the live room for tracking if more treatment was needed, but then put them back into the control room for mixing.

I have not yet had a chance to record anything in the live room yet. I was in Japan for a while after the remodel, and have been super busy since getting back with other aspects of my business, and also just doing composing and editing in the control room.

The control room sounds great, and I'm very happy with it. I'm hearing a lot of details I was missing before, and the low end is now very smooth and accurate and I'm once again getting the deep low end out of my BM15A monitors without having to turn on the sub.

Thanks for the comments!
