Are you building these panels and putting them in the corner?

Your "badge" is being confiscated and you're under investigation for impersonating a forum  administrator. [A very serious offense that could cost you all of your accumulated post counts and reduce your Bronze membership to a simple aluminum alloy material!]

What is Cakewalk trying to flog this time?


Nothing to flog here.  I made these traps for my new studio room and wanted to positively share what I did with this community.  Got it?  Thanks,  Jimmy

Hi, I actually just put these over the mix position as a cloud, but I did make custom corner traps that I wrote about last week here...  http://blog.cakewalk.com/how-building-cost-effective-acoustic-treatment-for-the-music-studio-will-help-your-music-production-part-2-corner-traps/ .
 
I recommend 2' wide panels for corners but I don't have the space so I cut them in 1/2 so they are 7.5' x 1' wide of Rockwool insulation.

Hello, It's related to using SONAR X1.  One of our forum editors liked the post a lot and thought the users in our forum community would find it interesting in this spot.  Thanks,  Jimmy

One other cool thing i noticed with that acoustic fabric is that you can buy pre-sewn 'wraps' or bags that will fit your insulation size. I did a similar thing here - got some bags sewn up to size with hooks sewn into the back of them, then slotted in the insulation and hung them up - very easy!

Thanks for sharing Jimmy.

Cheers

Ah, they're just razzin' ya! I don't get to all the forums, so if it wasn't here, I wouldn't know about it.  Maybe somebody thinks there's an illuminati plot to sell corning stock behind it all.. haha.

Coolbeans on the blog, Jimmy! Room treatment is a perennial favorite. Sonar could be doing the nicest stuff behind the scenes, but if the monitoring chain in front of it (including the room and walls) isn't reproducing it accurately, that's a tough road. I don't have an internal ear like beethoven, nor do I have the patience to 'compensate' in the mix for a room's deficiency.

Just getting things halfway fixed at the source has increased my enjoyment of music immensely.

Haha Jimmy! 

I remember when you visited my studio and were talking about how you were going to make these traps after I told you how I made mine.

Hope all is well and gratz on the sound treatment man!

Thanks Jimmy - I am going to move my gear into a new room in the house, and this could not have come at a better time..
