it's a bit spread out and we have lots of instruments. Many more than are pictured. Lol

I admit, we're kinda old school around here. Lol

I've been working on getting my studio where I really want it and feel I'm close (I started this process in 2009). I do want to get a bit of wall treatment as I have some serious frequency build up next to the door. And I'm looking at getting a different desk. There are a few other synths I'd like to get and as well as a fretless build from maruszczyk that will get me close to the fretless Wal sound I've always loved.

^ Pretty cool synth collection!

 

[Space Pickle]

a lot of your stuff is bent

 

[Iofflight]

The room is 9x12 and there is no way to stand far enough back to get the whole thing in one shot.. so it's 180 on the panoramic. Most shots are disturbingly warped.

Sorry I never got a notification that you had replied to my post... So sorry this is late.
My garage was originally just a single skin of brick with a concrete slab floor with an open void pitched roof.

I didn't need total sound proofing so i went with a high mass soundproofing solution.... the more mass and the more sealed the better.

a layer of 3" Kingspan thermal insulation over the concrete slab floor then lay 25mm chipboard over the top. I used concrete blocks to form a cavity and second skin inside the original brick skin and also to block up the garage door (door still forms outside skin) On the top of the concrete blocks I dabbed on plasterboard using a sound deadening calk.
The ceiling is 25mm ply fixed to the rafters and then 18mm plasterboard to face it of for a plaster skim. The roof space was insulated with loose fill fibreglass batts. The cavity wall had blown in type cavity insulation.
I have a 2 door entry system the outer door is solid wood decorative household door and opens outward and the inner door is an industrial type fire door with closer and rebated rubber intermission? strips
My tips are to seal up all holes and gaps as best you can.. rule of thumb any wherer air can leek in sound can leak out.

I have 1x 150mm high flow intake fan that is in the roof space and 1 120mm exhaust fan that sucks in the ceiling at opposite end of the room. I also bought 2x baffled diffusers that goes in the duct line between the fan and the room in each case. where i am located this change of air is sufficient enough.

My power is fed from the original garage supply board that has just 3 breakers. the 3 circuits are power, lighting and then a filtered socket on its own that runs my data switch. I have 3 compartment dado trunking all the way round with Power in the middle section, data and midi in the top section and audio cables in the bottom. I have a twin sockets about every 2 meters and extra in the corners.

For sound deadening/control I have a thin short pile carpet covering the entire floors pace with a Thick deep pile rug in the middle of the space and under the drum spot. I have Bass traps that I made In 2 corners and foam treatment to the corners at the drum end. I have a heavy drape across the doorway and Acoustic foam wedge tiles on the back wall and additional tiles where I was noticing reflections. The long flat wall has a large 5x4 array of pyramid style tiles in a big block to tune the room a bit.

I bought cheep pyramid style foam to cover my screens and amp boxes.

On the ceiling I have recently added 4x broadband absorber panels suspended 100mm down using jack chain.

All my treatment, except carpets were from Scan.co.uk

Hope this is of help.

Thanks for the reply....just checked in on this thread now...a year later!

The video is my studio at work. I have better headphones now. Our rehearsal studio (my living room). Our recording studio (my bedroom). Track vocals at our friend's studio (his bedroom).

This was my studio. About 8 years ago, or so. That was fun. It was 100% McGuyver production. Good times, bad quality

But, here's what we got straight off the board (without final touches or re-mix/mastering)
Nothing but a focusrite done on reaper

Hahahahaha, how'd you notice that one? Yeah, we play death metal, so we just keep it running during practice to set the atmosphere.

 

[Alfonso Alba]

Hehe. Hilarious. But seriously, pretty cool drum kit

I wish I could use my living room as rehearsal space but the wife would not have it. Had to build a small room in the backyard.

Yeah, my wife hates it, but my kids love it. So, I just tell her to leave for a couple hours. My little ones mosh around with us, and my wife get's "her" time. Win win win

Here's our rehearsal/recording studio:

Part of it, at least.

Wow, you really like that bass don't you?

 

[cassanova]

It's not much as I'm still trying to develop it, and need to do some acoustic treatment, but so far I have:

Ampeg SCR-DI
Digitech BP355
M-Audio M-Track Plus
KRK Rokit 5's
Sonar Professional
Cakewalk by Bandlab
Pro Tools
Not pictured is a crappy old Peavey TKO 80 that never gets used.

Just shifted house and so the studio has been updated. Much nicer room, the back is curved, which really makes the monitoring experience so much better. Also more space, with a nice little nook for the drum kit. Can't wait to get down to recording when all the churn is over. A bit messy right now, I need to get a few storage spaces.

Update.
Mixing corner of my 20m2 rehearsal room/studio. Nice enough pc with Reaper as a DAW, healthy collection of plugins, Midas MR 18 mixer/sound card and Monkey Banana Turbo 5 monitors with the 10 inch subwoofer.

Now all I need is more microphones.

Too many guitars to post here, but a few shots of the man-cave/work place... I have been fortunate to make a living playing both bass and guitar (Most often studio work). My guitar collection is far greater than bass, but my fundamentals are covered! Honestly P-Bass with TI flats get MOST of the work but I don't tell folks that. Here's a few I have been playing as of late. (And the classic Yamaha PB-1 is still a must-have favorite!) I am firm believer in high-end, well made but basic. Cheers ya'll RG

 

[Iofflight]

Nice! what monitors are you using?
