My studio update

looks awesome! Nice work!!

 still looks good though mate, the KRK's need to be upright instead of on the sides and i would assume the others do to 

Looks great mate

that door is banging

well done. how did you make the bass traps and how did you hang them or support them in there?

 3x1 timber box, filled with 2'' rockwool slabs, covered with fabric. Then made a shelve in each corner for them to sit on as well as attaching them to wire loops at the top. Cheap as chip really

nice one mate, how effective are they? what other treatment you putting in, just my room is about similar size and wondering how effective treating it would be. cheers.

liking the look of it so far mate! u must be loving it :-p

How do you make music with a screwdriver, a drill and some lumps of wood

^^^

That looks mint mate well done

Looks awesome chief. Im very jealous

Nice one guys. I now live in there lol

looking nice mate, fair doos

me likes, good effort, 

what desk is that dude

Looks wicked - Just in the process of building a load of traps like that for my new room

Sam the desk is from KAM, its the one Nardi has too. I had ordered the studiorta station from thomann, but they fucked me around so went for this. Its perfect for my set up really. Around £300 i think it was.

Paul the traps are fantastic got the side walls and celling done now. I'd say all in all i spent around £160 on them, which is dirt cheap compared to the traps and foam on the market.

Fuck that is cheap for traps mate, what did you build for that, the corners as well?

 

I'll be sorting my room accoustics in a couple months and at the minute was set on buying 5 of those trap bags from the US!!

I gotta shoot off Rob. But ill sort you with details later, Fook the yanks

 

No probs mate inabit

I got the 2'' slabs, they're 1200mm 600mm then you get the appropriate spec of plain timber 3''x1'' make the box to fit, then get some cheap ass material (Open cell, just hold it up to light and see how much comes through, also blow through it. You will be able to judge) Had the woman in the shop blowing for me

Then just staple the material down tight and hang with wire (I made a 90' angle frame for mine to sit on)
They look great too.

DIY FTW

wicked m8 good work looking at it just makes me wish i could have the music on i have to use headphones

Mine are pretty similar - from what I've read though, using thicker slabs seriously improves the low end absorbtion, so I went for the 100mm (about 4") really dense (160kg/m3) stuff.

Got about 70% of it up now and the room sounds pretty good
