Lockout room

Im getting a lockout room next month in West Los angeles area. Im going to get a fair sized room and treat it with bass traps and some diffusion and some deadening if needed and set up studio there. Im pretty excited because I will be able to work 24/7.

It will be a month or 2 before it is all set up' but when I get it in shape, Ill take some pics and post.

So excited to have have freedom to record anytime-

That's better than needing an expensive Mike!

lol expensive mic? Wutcha mean? lol

It's where some of us do our tape splicing and other delicate operations.  Lock the spouse, kids, and the dog out of the room, and get down to business.

24 hour lockout room is a place where musicians go to rehearse anytime. Also, many people set up studios in them. The rooms have AC, power and often internet connection available.

Im going to get one for a monthly fee, 4 to 600 a month

Ill be able to crank up the volume 24/7

Wow....you can get a room like that for about $300 a month here in Houston.  But they're noisy because of all the other people there trying to do the same thing (or worse...rehearse their crappy band)...and sometimes they close up on Holidays - which sucks because that's the best time to be in there...when everyone else is with family.

Lance.....for the 5 to 7 grand it will cost you (just in your first year alone), I'd wonder why you wouldn't just build out a serious room in your home with that money?

Maybe you're in an apartment?

Well I went with a studio haha-
im renting a studio with a vocal both in it and lots of sound treatment. Im going to add some bass traps myself but it si a cool room and high ceilings-

I move in Oct 1st. Ill make a video to show it after I get it all set up!

I just wasnt happy with the lockout room options I saw-

It is costing me about double what I hoped to pay, but this studio is noce and very cool, and it should pay off in every way!

haha nice

Thanx man. Im a high school teenager in a whore house right now if ya get my drift-

Oh yeah hahaha

Hopefully you'll last longer, if you know what I mean.

Lock out rooms have come up in the world.  In NYC there were several of these places, tho I would never set up a studio in one.

My favorite was a sub sub etc. basement in little Italy on Houston.  Some friends of mine shared a big (tho not high) room.  I think "they might be giants" worked there for a while, too.  The cool thing about it was it was used as a civil war prison, or so people said.  But of course, people say all kinds of things.  Still, a good story as you kept going down stairs and thanking that I wasn't a drummer.

Ok I figured out my camera and so I got some pics of my recording studio now

The lighting is actually dim and moody, but the camera flash brightens it up-
