i'm thecYrus there as well. though i don't post that much. usually just reading there.

I don't post much there either (0.32 posts per day). There are some good people there like Bob Ohlsen, Ethan Winer, Bob Katz. Dan Lavry posted a few times and those guys have valuable opinions. Lot of things everyone can learn from those folks. But for the most part the forum is like any other forum which means its full of slobbering retards.

The thread where this information came from was called
The Reason Most ITB Mixes Don't Sound as Good as Analog Mixes and it was accidentally deleted by a Moderator who got several spam reports from people arguing the thread into stupidity. He saw the title and thought that was the entire thread. There was actually 90 pages of which about 74 have been salvaged from Google cache and its very informative. The basic idea is that ITB can be made to sound exactly like OTB if you know what you are doing. Some very good stuff about proper gain staging there and it would be a pretty good idea to sift through the remains and write it up nicely with all the terms explained. Rann fights the good fight but he has condensed about 50 pages of useful information down to one post!

awesome post Rann!

any chance someone could post up a room treatment guide?
like which areas of the room to start with, which as the most important, and general tips?

something like that would be awesome ^_^

If you are really looking for solid advice on room treatment, I'd suggest contacting one of the guys at GIK Acoustics. Since room treatment is such a subjective thing, you really need to get advice that is specific to your particular situation. There is a form on their website that allows you to submit some basic information about your room and they will get back to you with a recommendation, free of charge. I modeled my room in Visio (super easy) and included it with my form submission. Then they got back to me with a recommendation. Highly recommended

I'm not on gearslutz, just lurk very occasionally. Even though there's some good info on there I get tired of seeing so much subjective BS on there combined with Ego.

I just basically put this thread together with info from GS and other forums and my own knowledge. It was actually quite hard to keep it that small, and it still ended up being a couple of screens long.

As for room treatment, that GIK thing sounds really interesting but also check out:

it's a lot of reading, but if you go through it all, you will have a really good understanding of the basics of room treatment, and can make quote a few educated guesses (and the rest you can just check here!).
