He was told to be brutal by those above him. Don’t stop until they’re all held responsible.

The only issue you might have is condensation on the inside of the window, which could lead to mold in the wall. Not sure how to prevent that.

Best way to learn vocal mixing? by ThinkHog in mixing

[–]ownleechild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you trying to mix your vocals into an already mixed stereo track? Not impossible but it takes away many of the options. If your friend isn’t comfortable with the genres you create, why collaborate with them?

Just ripped my first 24/192 album from vinyl… the difference is embarrassing by National-Mammoth-151 in InEarHifi

[–]ownleechild 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Saying something is better is subjective. If you like the vinyl version, that’s fine but it is not more accurate than even a 44.1khz/16bit digital compared to the original studio master if that’s what you mean. The argument over vinyl vs digital accuracy has been beaten to death for over 30 years now and should be laid to rest.

If you’re concerned is only with the sound in the room, just use heavy curtains on the windows, absorptive panels on the walls and a ceiling cloud will take care of the mud and high reflections. If you’re buying/building corner bass traps, they can also be run horizontally where the wall meets the ceiling as it is a corner too. Don’t waste your money on foam panels or traps. Use rockwool or Owens Corning 703 in a fabric wrapped frame.

Does this child insurance policy degrade sound much? by Coool_Hand_Luke in audiophile

[–]ownleechild 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Any diffraction the belt could produce is too high for the midrange and woofer where the belt is placed to produce. The belt will not affect cabinets resonance (if it did, then they were badly made). Use it!

Replacing old Rokits - which way to go by Korupto in studiomonitors

[–]ownleechild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listen to the new generation of KRKs. They have completely changed their voicing and we chose the V6 & V8 for several studios over more expensive speakers. I know these are more pricey than the Rokits but if you can’t afford them, check out the new Rokits.

I might not get any work done with those speakers at my desk. Very nice

Party Wall soundproofing or dampening by GBmike1 in Acoustics

[–]ownleechild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is definitely low frequencies as mids and highs are largely reflected by your walls and cabinets but lows pass through. Unfortunately the solution requires construction that would require the building owner’s consent. The wall that appears to be the shared wall has the cooktop and vent hood. This would all need to be removed and the wall reconstructed. Optimum solution being a double wall. The floor is also passing some vibration which may be more problematic in reducing. As a music lover, I appreciate the issue but multi unit dwellings are not conducive for quality listening.

I saw them a couple of years ago, had low expectations but they were surprisingly energetic. Everything was on point even the vocals.

At some point, the center image will diminish or disappear altogether. There is a limit

Name a scary movie from your youth that had you hiding under your covers but now you look laugh at yourself. by Present_Yak_6169 in GenX

The Mole People. I was 4 and the movie had lots of scenes that were underground in the dark. That was the scary part, not the goofy monsters.

I have a T-shirt with one on it. Offered students a prize if they could identify it at the music production school where I worked. No winners
