Just wanted to say welcome back, and to thank John for helping me with my studio design while the site was down.
Also wanted to that Carl for pointing me in the right direction.
Thanks again!
Robert

HAHA That's really funny dude... Well thanks again. Yeah the new design rocks. I'm going to finish it with Smart Draw and post it up so other people can get some ideas from it.
I'm all set to begin construction now that the design has been ironed out.
Becareful of us crossforum people!
Peace,
Rob

What about the live room and vocal booth design?

The Live room is pretty much unchanged except for two small details... one is that the angle near the HW heater has been reduced to give me more space. That was your recommendation. The other is the second sliding glass door inside the Live room recommended by John.
The Vocal booth I'll leave that shape and just add some baffles inside to offset the somewhat square shape.
Any thoughts on that?

John couple of quick questions:
1. The size of the sliding glass doors... is smaller better for the sound resistence? I can put in either 5' or 6' doors. The 6' door is $30 more so that's not a factor.
2. The 30" normal doors located against the vocal booth and live room, it would look nice to also put sliders there, again am I comprimising sound? Do I need the door to the Live room at all (although I may not want half baked musicians to stuble throught my control room with amps and guitars) just a thought.
3. And for now, 2x4 walls or 2x6 (i've currently budgeted for 2x6 walls)?
Here is my website which has pics of the basement and layout...

6ft doors open wider so they are better for moving gear through. You will need the door into the live room so you can load gear in and out.
2 x 4 should be all you need - 6" is overkill. In fact if they aren't holding up a ceiling 3 x 2 would work.
cheers

That's settled then. I'm ordering the sliders on Monday, they'll take about a week to arive. In the meantime I'll start the walls...
Thanks again,
Rob

Rob - you may have to search but try to get sliders with these features.
cheers

John,
The doors have all of those features except the brass. The 6' doors were $400 and I ordered two 5' doors for the vocal booth.
