Hey friends,
So I have been struggling for years in my dorm room trying to churn out good tracks. In that time I have constantly faced the problem of things sounding perfect in my bedroom but terrible when translated elsewhere. Now that I have found my own apartment I am finally given the opportunity to have an entire room dedicated to producing and mixing.
I was sad to find out that my room is a perfect square which is an acoustical nightmare according to the research I have done. Although it is not ideal, I am still ecstatic about this opportunity and want to make the most out of it.
The room's dimensions are 11'2" wide x 11'2" long x 9' high, carpet flooring, and drywall on all sides and ceiling. I have already researched lots and have an idea of what I need but any extra guidance would be much appreciated.
I am thinking two 2' high corner traps in each corner of the room (eventually will have every corner trapped from floor to ceiling). As well as two 1' x 1' x 2" panel absorbers for each wall where first reflections are, four 1' x 1' x 2" panels behind my speakers, four more 1' x 1' x 2" panels directly behind my head on the back wall, and possibly a cloud for the reflection point on the ceiling (although I've read a carpet makes a cloud not needed.)
I will primarily be mixing and mastering my own tracks (Electronic Music), so I assumed I would be aiming for a dead room.
If the foam I stated above was sufficient, I was hoping to have some extra $$$ to purchase an IK multimedia ARC 2 for that extra bit of flattening, but I don't want that to be start a war in the thread, and I'd gladly replace that investment for more foam if needed.
If you guys have any questions let me know, and any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Ken
