Wink The room is done!

Well, except for the monitor stands and a decent chair.

Thanks to Glenn and Ethan and the rest of y'all who gave ideas and guidance.

I have posted some pictures and a slideshow (because I can't figure out how to get the #%&*$ pictures in the right order) here

I don't have any graphs or anything, but the recording is much better. Very little noise. I'll know more when I can really start recording more.

Thanks again, gang. GS is a motherlode of minds, among other things!

I've got one full 2"x 2x4 piece of Rockboard left over. Any suggestions?

Constructive suggstions?

BTW, I built two sand-filled PVC monitor stands, and got a Serta chair on sale at Office Depot. It's great to be able to go down, flip a few switches, tune guitars, and go to work!

Go to a used office furniture store and get a used herman miller chair, it won't matter which one, once you sit in one you'll understand completely. 'Bout $40.

I won't use pitch correcting software. I use "coaching" maybe you've heard of it. It keeps working even when you don't have it on.
