A room is more like gear than anything else, right? But we're not really "Making A Space", so I chose this forum.
So I record, as rhythm ranch defines the term, in my "Bedroom + Studio = Bedio".
Anybody else using a non-traditional location to indulge their jones for rhythm and booze?
Pix?
Wanna talk about the compromises and maximizations?
Ex., I can't locate my stuff in the center of any wall, so I hadda kinda build a recording subsection of the room, kludge a rack, stack the amps, store the mics in odd ways, modify the desk for two computers ... I'll post some pix mebbe later.
(Yeah, I know, it's kinda like this thread, but here we wanna see closets, dorm rooms, attics, garden sheds, etc., as opposed to all the good places.)
I gotta "bedio", you?

Shame no one replied to this. :-)
A couple old spaces for me: the first from ~2005 in the upstairs hall of our shared house. Doing bad vocal overdubs in the hallway takes a certain amount of releasing of your inhibitions, which i think is very healthy:
The second from ~2006 (with my assistant engineer hard at work):
..ergonomics were terrible. :-)

The most interesting challenge to me through those years was finding ways to mix and master reasonable-sounding audio with absolutely terrible monitoring. In a perverted way i think it can make you a better engineer in the long run, but who really knows.vvv wrote: Wanna talk about the compromises and maximizations?

I keep it fairly traditional. I have a house with my wife, a 2 year old, and another relative who watches the little guy during the day...so I don't have a lot of free space to myself. Right now I'm in the master bedroom...but will be moving back to a dedicated room after we finish the addition to out house. next step is insulating and finishing the garage for something proper.
