treating a small room for tracking?

Hello,

I have this room in which I'm trying to record drums, guitar and such (for demos). It's a temporary room and I'm just trying to make due for a year or two. I guess I'm thinking of how to focus the room and I'm wondering if I can get any suggestions. I attached an estimated drawing of the room. The floor is carpet and the ceiling is 8.5'. I usually set my drums in the bottom right facing the closet, but sometime facing the corner. How would you treat a room like this? I can't really put anything in the corners because of the doors and windows. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I suggest you take a few minutes and browse throught the threads in this
forum and the other one Studio building / acoustics . You may be surprised
to see that most threads deal with rooms very much like your own. You won't
have to read much to get an idea of what you need for your own room.

There are twelve corners in a rectangular room so if you can't use the four
vertical ones because of windows and doors you can use the ones around the
floor and around the ceiling.
