Hi all,

Im moving to a new house and so i have seperated room for my studio.

I do not know a lot about the acoustics inside a room and would like some help what part of the room is the best to put down my desk and some ideas where to place some acoustic foam.

Below is a link to a layout of the room that i have drawed. The sizes on there are not 100% accurate but for 95%'s they are right.

The windows are from floor level to almost ceiling level (-20cm)(ceiling = 2,8m) and the windows are all about 2cm thick

can you take a picture just to get an idea of what door needs to be accessible and how. If you need access to both , then you only have 1 choice really.

where to place treatment requires measurements. People tend to just put thin acoustic panelling where they think reflections will come from which might work but it sort of ignores a rather big chunk of science regarding how effective this actually is.

there is also more to measurements than just doing impulse responses which only gives you so much information which can be rather useless on its on.

knowing your room will make it easier to know when you need a diffuser rather than an absorber. Bass issues can be handled pretty well with this sort of measurement tho and that is where i would start. People tend to over estimate the importance of reflections in the higher end of the spectrum especially lateral ones.

put it smack in the middle. and lower the tandem bike to third gear, and just ram it straight into it. then place cymbals on the chain, pedals etc. Mic it up, and have at it! And if that's not techno, than I don't know what techno is. Yeeeehaa pardner.
