Hey there, Great forum you've got going here - very helpful! I'm a long time lurker, first time poster.

I'm about to embark on fulfilling a lifelong dream of a dedicated studio/music/rock-god-lair m/, I've read Rod Gervais' book - plus other articles...and many threads here so I think I have the fundamentals happening?

Hello! I've been wracking my brain about the best ways to proceed. I've been reading Rod's great studio construction book and online forums to get ideas. My situation is that I'll need a decent amount of sound proofing but I'm on a busy street so there's quite a bit of ambient noise.

Good Evening All and Hi from the UK

HELP!

First of all may i say thanks for looking at this thread and any information shared will be greatly received.

do i need planning permission if i'm turning my garage into a project studio? ie change of usage?

cheers
pete

Hey all. Just wondering if i could get some constructive feedback, or a pat on the back. This track was tracked in an open garage with home-made baffles. We actually tracked the drums in a sonically-perfect drum room. guitars are through 57's to PreSonus tube pre's, bass is DI'd, vocals are scratch (through nt1's). btw, please ignore the de-esser, it's a lot carried away.
