    With just a small amount of well placed acoustic panels you can be sure to get pro sounding mixes out of your room. I show you how I set my room up with a modest amount of treatment so you can use this as inspiration for what to do in your studio

    Excellent video. I have a room about the same size as yours, and I'm in the process of going through treatment options... really appreciate your time!

    A year ago i didn't have enough experience to avoid making the mistake of buying a subwoofer. I never used it, and i don't plan to. I'm going to sell it. I put a lowcut filter on the master bus to get the best sound out of my speakers, low frequencies cloud the rest when played by the same cone.

    I'm very familiar with those "clips", they've been used to hang breeding boxes and feeders in bird aviaries for decades, very easily made at home. :)

    It always eventually comes to "less is more", right?

    Thanks Jordan for this video. I'm in the middle of setting up my new mix room in my new home. Unfortunately it's a rental so nothing permanent for me. But I have carpeted bafells. Hope they will help
    Will find out tomorrow... Thanks again for the video. Cheers

    Hey jordan thanks for this video. I moved to a bigger space to think it would be better, but i was getting better mixes in the smaller space so im moving back. And i was gonna get a sub but after watching i dont need one anymore. I have my own homemade acoustic treatment it is the dredded foam😂 but i put two together and coverd it with a thick packing blanket and framed it so it should do a good job. Good stuff i love youre less is more approach and your mixes are killer😎

    Are you the engineer behind that Horizons album? If so, I LOVE YOU!

    I know I'm late to the party but is this room also great for recording vocals?

    The only space I have to mix in is a small basement room, which has stone and brick walls. I do have carpet on the floor but I hear way too much slapback echo in my mixes. What would you recommend for a room similar to this?

    Thanks for the info. I have 1 question for you, do you use sonarworks when checking the low end of your mixes?, thanks you.

      He had said he uses the NS10's, and for the subs check really quickly if there is too much or not enough subs, but never really pays attention to them as much as the rest.

    How are the bass trap panels mounted in the corners?

    • @hardcoremusicstudio
      @hardcoremusicstudio  5 лет назад

      Can't explain in writing... but it's pretty simple. Same clips on the panels, and a clip on the wall that has 2 sides at a 45 degree angle so that it just slides on like the others.

    I think you're a bit optimistic (or very lucky) ! Usually in a room like that the kind of treatment you have is really not enough. Even with small speakers.

    Did you use the mirror trick to find the side reflections?

    • @TrevorOkonuk
      @TrevorOkonuk 5 лет назад

      I'm guessing not since one is just between windows wherever it fit, and the other side is pretty much spread evenly across that wall.

    What material you use inside the panels? Rock wool?

      @@hardcoremusicstudio Thanks! But, what about rock wool? I always read that rock wool is way better than fiberglass, and I used it in my studio

    I think all the movement with the camera and the cellphone gave me nausea...
    Was 5 mins in checked something feel bad said "whats this"? Ended up feeling this...
    I recommend you to avoid this in the future. Thanks. GL.
    First time I ever feel this too...

    What about the roof, that can be a big source of slapback echo

    • @hardcoremusicstudio

      not a big deal if your floor has carpet. Or the opposite, like in my old mix room i had hard floor and a ceiling cloud above.
