Rooms

Like many people, setting aside a room to become a “Home Studio” inevitably involves a ton of compromises.  These are usually because the room was never intended to be used as a Studio.  It won’t have perfect acoustics, it won’t be the right shape, etc etc.  So how do you address these problems?    Studying acoustics can set us on the way to improving how the room performs. 

What are the typical problems?  

• Excessive bass and low frequency responses
• Constraints on speaker/monitor positions
• Acoustic reflections from walls, floor, ceiling

 

Test of MS Word

A useful DVD

Not 1 but 3 DVD’s actually. Alan Parsons was, amongst many other things, the session engineer for the recording of “Dark Side of the Moon”  To say he knows his way around a recording studio is an understatement.  This set of DVDs is him sharing his knowledge and experience.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Listening ‘n’ Hearing

…. Are not the same.  We hear everything, all the time.  We really can’t stop hearing.  But we have to choose to listen.  This site is about sounds, noises, acoustics – “Fuiam” – in the Gaelic.

So lean back,  listen to the audio clips which will be appearing on this site.  Read the blogs and updates.  And enjoy the “Fuiam”
