I have everything in a spare bedroom covered in sheets, the dust is insane. No matter haw much we clean its still there.

[Tomas Danko]

I once had a hole cut out between two floors, 80 cm thick piece of concrete and about 2x4 meter wide. The dust never seemed to settle.

It does help to spray the room with mist/water, spraying as close to the ceiling as you possibly can. Just keep spraying all the time, and then sweeping the floor to get rid of the settled dust.

Patience is your friend here.

I tried the mist thing last night and it works.

Thanks,

Clifford.

Contractor is done, I am broke and owe a bunch of money. thats it till next year. I will start with the flooring and A/C as soon as I get back from Abaco.I will take some more pics tonight.

I am now working on my ceiling. I had a bunch of Auralex 2" x 2' x 4' wedge foam left over from my previous space. Almost enough to do the entire tracking room. I placed an order with Sweetwater for enough to finish. I also had some Auralex Lenrd Bass traps, enough for 3 corners. I ordered more of those. I will use those until I can afford some Realtraps and use the Lenrds else where.The room is starting to tighten up a bit,still alot of reflections but getting better. I'll try get some fresh pics up.

Here you can see my lights (love the way they reflect)and the ceiling foam and temporary bass traps;

Outside the CR, I ran out of Auralex foam;




The wood floor is going in on Saturday.

nice work! maybe intersperse the tiles to break up the ceiling-floor and wall-wall reflections without making it too dead. the checkerboarding of the tiles will help create a nice diffusive space.

Thanks Glen,
What do you think about these panels for the walls, maybe leaving 2/3 feet between them?

i'd say 18"-24" apart, and on parallel walls, stagger them so they're alternated between the walls.

Man, I've been sitting on the edge of my seat to see this room grow into a studio.

From the looks of the progress, you've spent a lot of time and money, I'm sure.

I can almost tell from the last picture... is this the roof that you added on?

I know A LITTLE (only) about how to treat a room. I learned it all from Ethan and also Rod's book!  

I would hate to see you waste all the Auralex, but maybe you could disperse it around the room (walls and ceiling) make it more "even". I know that's what Gullfo said.  

You will need some heavier traps as well. That foam in the corner will not be sufficient in the size of room that I THINK (only) it is.

THE PLACE LOOKS AWESOME MAN.

I dig the sconces too!

Thanks Jason,

I am only using the Lenrd Bass traps until I can afford some Realtraps, I already had the Lenrds.My room is small and the ceiling is only 8' 3". I read that in a small space it was better to try and make the ceiling disapear as much as possible hence covering the entire ceiling.

Thanks,  

Clifford.
