Air Conditioned Studio

I added air conditioning to the studio today. Very cool, literally. The nicest thing is that I was able to take the opening to the attic, cut up a new piece of drywall, and attach a light, A/C and a hole for the snake into it. It basically means that I've modified the least amount of the house possible--which will make this (relativly) easy to tear down when we move. Goodness, I hope that's not for a very long time.

General - Update

The DAW is now working now that my RAM issues have been resolved. My number one suggestion when putting together your DAW is to make sure you research your MoBo THOROUGHLY before buying all additional components, especially RAM, CPUs and Video Cards.

The Isolation room has the 2 outside layers on except for the low-ceiling and around the door. All that is left other than that is the second inside layer and A/C ducting into the room.

I also found some good information on how to EQ a drum kit (often the hardest part to properly EQ). It's on a site that gives some good tracking information all around.
