Help: How to divide my room
Hi, im new to this forum,im from the philippines, but have been visiting this forum for so long. i'm seeking some advise and suggestions on how to divide my room into a control room and a drum room.

i need a control room that would atleast fit 5 people, the dimensions on my room is 16ft x 16ft x 16 ft.

what is the smallest possible drum room i can make without screwing up the acoustics?

Thank you!

With those dimensions you're already screwed.

The best thing you can do is lower the ceiling so it's not a cube, then add as much absorption as you can manage. Have you considered leaving this as a single room and using headphones while recording?
