Hi (what's your name?)

At 1800 cubic feet your room is not as small as some I've heard of! [You did mean cubic feet, right?] But all rooms need a mix of reflective and absorbent surfaces. In general, the smaller the room the more bass trapping you'll need too. If you start with my bass trap plans and build four of each trap type plus some fiberglass absorbers, you'll be in pretty good shape for starters, anyway.

I really want to make my studio a bit professional but economical too as i dont have so much bucks to spend but still i am thinking to devide this space into live, dead, vocal and control room, is it possible? I am really confused of harmonica and fundamental frequency, can you gonna explain me same.

Anurag,

I thought you meant you'd use that one room for everything! I'm afraid if you divide the space the rooms will all be too small to sound good.

I have one large room for everything, and I just use earphones when needed. That is not always ideal either, but it makes a lot of sense when you have such a small space.

The space is already built? Then there's not much to comment on! It does seem extremely small Why so many small rooms? I'd think one control room and one studio room would have made more sense.

Hey Ethan !

Must be very disappointing for you, but its' already built according to floor plan i have already posted. I can understand there is lots' of problem regarding small space, how can I fight with this situation? I have tried making a plan for my control room check it here

All you can do is treat it as thoroughly as possible: Lots of fiberglass and lots of bass traps.
