The recording studio which is now 3/4 built, is at a stand still, too many people are in disagreement on how the control room should be, and being that the studio is at the back of a friends house, it's ultimately up to him how the studio is built, but he's stopped the building, because a lot of people say "I played in a band and we never had an enclosed control room, just get a USB mixing desk and hook it up to a computer and start recording", and others say "well, all the studios I've been to use an enclosed control room for better control of the sounds when on the other side of a sound proof area.", so I contacted my brother-in-law in California, who is a professional sound engineer for most of the top Hollywood bands, and he specifically said to have the control room enclosed, sooo, which is it, open or enclosed? Personally I would have it enclosed, but it looks like I won't be doing anything there any time in the near future, until he takes the advice from professionals and stop listening to the "I know everything, wannabe" sound engineers.
