Testing Placement of RODE NT5's with the Guzheng (Chinese Zither)
Just starting using a pair of RODE NT5's with directional capsules to record the guzheng. After some experimenting with positions, I've settled on both overhead, one on each side, about 3ft from the instrument. I've added no effects to this recording other than a compressor. What do you think?
Acoustic foam placement
I'm trying to do some sound treatment in the room I'm using for my home studio on little to no budget. I was given a piece of this acoustic foam from a friend that had some left over. It's 2.7 metres by about 1 metre.

Where to place mixing area and monitor speakers
Hi everyone,
Advice on speaker placement
I've recently moved into a new place, and I've got a loft room as space for my home studio. It's far from ideal, but it's the only plausible space I've got.

Proper Speaker Placement w/ Dimensions
Here are the dimensions of the room I need to set up as a studio (pic link attached below). 10' 8" x 11' 10" (8ft ceiling)
I have 2 KRK Powered Rockit 6's
Can someone please tell me the technically proper dimensions I should place the speakers in the room, for the best flat response for the engineers seating position.

Final / Master reverb placement.
I have a permanent quandary over placement of a master level reverb. My live side wants to put it last, as after all, you don't actually control the reverb of a real environment. So, I am curious, do you all put it after a limiter/maximiser or before?.
Cheers,
Tony

Mic placement : your first EQ (video)
Hi my friends,
I've put up a new video which I think may benefit RO members.
Let me know what you think of the sound and the production in general. (Trying to get better!) ;)
Don't miss the electric distorted guitar on which mic placement has the biggest impact.

Where To Place Desk And Monitors
I can only use the living room in my new apartment. I need advice where to place my desk and monitors. The 3D rendering is of the apartment but the furnishings aren't mine. Think of the living room empty. I haven't moved in yet.

Land of Overhead Placements
I did some testing of various Oh placements. My room has a low ceiling 6'3 and I find I'm getting some kind of weird comb filtering if I set up OH's to close to the ceiling even though it's completely dead, it's insulation with fabric over it.. not a deliberate treatment setup. Here's some examples of random playing.
It appears as though I've run out of mp3 power.
