Room Acoustics and Design

Another important aspect, when building a home studio is acoustic treatment. The way the room sounds or reverberates, can change dramatically the way music is mixed, written and recorded. Untreated rooms have an uneven frequency response, which means that any mixing decisions being made are being based on a sound that is ‘coloured’, because sound mixers can’t accurately hear what’s being played. Acoustic panels and bass traps, can improve the sound in the room.

Famous quotes containing the words room and/or design:

    The host, the housekeeper, it is
    who fails you. He had forgotten
    to make room for you at the hearth
    or set a place for you at the table
    or leave the doors unlocked for you.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    You can make as good a design out of an American turkey as a Japanese out of his native stork.
    —For the State of Illinois, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
