Hi Guys,
Over the last couple of days I have built 4 absorbers consiting of two pieces of 100mm Rocksil RS60 per panel, backed with a frame and covered with fabric from IKEA (total depth over 8"inches)
I have just lugged them up the stairs to my studio and am conflicted as to where to put them.
I know that 1 in each corner would be recommended.
My room is 20 foot long
My monitors are 8ft from the door
These fire down the rest of the room which is 12 foot
Do I need to put the aborbers in thee corners by the door? This is the main thing I can't decide on, because my speakers are pointing away from these corners.
I considered putting them behind the speakers a couple of feet instead. I believe they are definitely needed in the corners behind my head (all four are in one corner in the photos below)
I would like to place them at the first reflection points but the due to the sloping roof, and my 3 sets of monitors I don't think I'd be able to get past them to get to my mix position!
So my main options I think are:
a)1 in each corner
b)2 behind the mix position, 2 placed behind the monitors
BTW this is the first step of my treatment plan.
Next, is hopefully a cloud above my head, a thinner panel attached to the sloping roof behind the mix position and some diffusion on the right hand side to match that of the window on the left.
I'd like to thank everybody so far who has contributed to threads on here and inspired me (with extremely limited DIY knowledge) to give it a go.
The hardest thing was trying to find the insulation company's HQ without Sat Nav!
Would very much appreciate your thoughts and suggestions,
Iwan
