Hi gang, I'm new here and new to REW. I'm setting up a small room for music mixing and thought I would share my quest and get some advice.
Here's my scenario. 12'6" x 11' with a 9' ceiling. The room is completely empty of furniture. The front corners have LenrD bass traps from floor almost to the ceiling. Live end/dead end with 2" thick foam tiles in the front end of the room and 1" thick tiles in the back of the room. The front wall is completely covered and the side walls are completely covered in the front and gradually thinning checkerboard pattern toward the back of the room.
The checkerboard pattern is offset so there are no opposing parallel surfaces. The highly technical clap test turns up no audible flutter echo.
The Hardware :
Mackie HR824 MK1
2 Polk Audio PSW 10 (these are more for fun than mixing)
MOTU M2 24/192 DAC
UMIK-1
I'm starting with a generic acoustic treatment and the subs are positioned at quarter length distance of each wall. Subs are spiked through carpet to a cement floor. The Mackies are on simple, plate steel and 1" square steel tubing stands and are sitting on top of the subs with 1.5" sorbothane isolation feet.
Measurements were taken from equilateral triangle with the speakers which is about 4' from the back wall.
Here they are.
