Control Room In South Dakota

Post by TimWalter » Wed Jun 15, 2016 2:35 pm

Hello all.
My control room is smaller than Id like, but its what I have. I have another room that can be used for recording, with drums, pedal steel, etc set up.

I have floor to ceiling bass traps in all 4 corners (4" Owens Corning 703, outside one has aluminum foil, which is specifically designed for bass traps, I think its 703 FRK?, might be wrong. ALso have 2" of 703 (with about 2" air space behind) in all the primary reflection points.

Gear. my Imac i7 quad core, I think 3.6 speed? Apollo quad interface, some outboard gear (Bae 1073 preamp, Hair Ball Audio Black face 1175 clone, Red DI from A-Designs (has a tube in it), two A0esigns P-1 (pacifica ) 500 series preams going into RME A/D converter (not shown)). My speakers are 1)Blue Sky monitors with Blue SKy sub 2) NS10M's 3) Auratones.

Tim

Next upgrade: Lava Lamp :mrgreen:

Nice room! What are you using to split your signal to the three different monitor pairs?

Thanks guys for all the kind comments. Yes, mackie big knob...

I have been away for the forums for a while, so pls pardon my delayed response. One of my goals for the second half of the year is to be on here more regurlarly ("everyday" is a goal, as Russell admonished in one of his interviews... lol)

All the best.
