nice work! maybe intersperse the tiles to break up the ceiling-floor and wall-wall reflections without making it too dead. the checkerboarding of the tiles will help create a nice diffusive space.Glenn Stanton

Man, I've been sitting on the edge of my seat to see this room grow into a studio.
From the looks of the progress, you've spent a lot of time and money, I'm sure.
I can almost tell from the last picture... is this the roof that you added on?
I know A LITTLE (only) about how to treat a room. I learned it all from Ethan and also Rod's book!
I would hate to see you waste all the Auralex, but maybe you could disperse it around the room (walls and ceiling) make it more "even". I know that's what Gullfo said.
You will need some heavier traps as well. That foam in the corner will not be sufficient in the size of room that I THINK (only) it is.

Thanks Jason,
I am only using the Lenrd Bass traps until I can afford some Realtraps, I already had the Lenrds.My room is small and the ceiling is only 8' 3". I read that in a small space it was better to try and make the ceiling disapear as much as possible hence covering the entire ceiling.

What would be the best colour to paint the Control Room window frame inside to help with light reflections.?
I was thinking matt/flat black.
Thanks,
Clifford.
Or flat gray. You see a lot of car dashboards this color... (I think about things like this for no particular reason lol)

By the way, the pictures are dark because your walls are white. When a camera determines exposure, it measures light and shoots for an average brightness between the lightest and darkest parts of the image. When the whole image is white, this means an average of gray.
In the pictures with instruments in them (which have light and dark parts), the snare drum reflected the flash back at the camera, and those small, bright spots threw the meter off, thus a darker exposure.
