Thread Starter | scratching my head on back wall panel placement...
Hello all. First off, thanks to Ethan, Glenn, et al for all your insight & wisdom on the forum with regard to the weird world of acoustic treatment. Wish I'd seen the light earlier, but better late than never I guess. I've learned a lot from reading the existing threads & think I'm ready to roll up my sleeves & start building my panels, but would love some advice on treating some quirks my room has... My little cave is L 15.5 ft x W 9.5 ft x H 7.5 ft. Pics attached (please excuse the mess, I'm a muso) The room needs to serve as both my recording & control space until I inevitably become rich n famous. The front end seems to me like a pretty standard solution, corner traps, 1st reflection points, maybe a cloud etc, although I would like to know whether ideally I should do anything about the 2 weird little 10" windows at the top of the wall? (pic 1) or if they're too little to worry about? The main headmash for me is the back wall - It has a stud wall closet thing protruding 2.5 ft (see pic 2) which obviously gives me a lot more corners to deal with. Is it ok just to place say, 3 panels flat on the wall inside the closet & recess to the left of it, or do I need to straddle the corners inside the closet & recess too? Many thanks in advance for your help... I have a couple more questions regarding the floor & sides too, but I'll get to those later! |

| Also it is always good to cover yourself (hat, gloves, glasses, long shirt................) as much as possible.

Actually, it's not as bad as I expected. Not any worse than the wife's stubble anyway. I said too much, didn't I. |
