Hi Nikolas,

Sorry if this has been asked before but where did you get the custom drumskin from? I want to get something similar for my in house kit.

Thanks.

Looking good btw!

the boxes contain the u-rack boxes for the console. Hopefully the desk will be assembled next week and the next step will be to mount all the gear. July and August we will be very busy finishing the control room so we can be ready for recordings in September

Great stuff!

Looks like a sweet place, live room looks great, and I bet it sounds better!

Rossome · 12th July 2009

Looks great! Wish I had a live room that big! Bet it sounds awesome too!

fabricaudio · 12th July 2009

Yeah, it sounds very good, next step is to build some mobile panels for live tracking. They will probably made with 4 layers of 5cm rockwool.

Nolan Walker · 15th July 2009

I really like the live room - especially with the natural light from that giant window. Very nice!

Everything else looks like it is coming along nicely. I can't wait to see how it all comes together in the end; I'm sure it will be fantastic.

J.S.Vega III · 15th July 2009

Great thread Nikolas, looking forward to seeing how the control room comes together!

The room looks and feels nice but i believe the photographer was the one who knows how to capture that in the photos.

I am jealous too, i am still in the UK, my brother Jordan is the lucky one, i hope this month that i am going back will be rewarding but busy too because we need to finish the control room as soon as possible.

Hey Nikolas,
I've been following your hard work for some months, this is a complete blast, can' wait to see the CR finished.

I'm planning to make some diffussors similar to yours, witch wide/depth did you make the wells??

Best of luck.

Hi Carlos

For the one on the ceiling you can use these instructions
PME Records QRD Diffusor Construction
, they are quite straight forward. The lengths were 0, 5, 10 , 15, and 20 cm and the blocks were 5x5 cm

For the walls i have a drawing here

We used water based paint. The Polystyrene is already hard and dense
