Although that Dave Rat video was not really applicable, I enjoyed it none the less! Video of Josh is how I do it (On most gigs, not the festivals where we should be off 5 minutes ago and angry stage managers are shouting:P)

Definitely not giving you advice on this one. Just here to wish you good luck on the gig. Based on what I heard from you, you will kick %ss!

Project 'Wendy' during high school. Just bumped into her the other day. Wish I finished what I started...ah well, story of my life:)

Seems like a nice plug-in. Can you describe what you think are it"s strengths? Where are you using it for the most?

Do I understand correctly that this software is able to tear apart music in separate stems?

Thanks for both site! Helpful resources!

I think you are doing a great job! No need to worry. We are not paying you!!

HAHA, you are probably right Mike! As said, I am a complete n00b and was trying to learn this stuff. So I searched the interwebs and tried to learn as much as possible. If you randomly google you'll find some articles saying that in small rooms bass traps and absorbers are the main priority, so I did that. ( like in this SOS article)

About those diffuser citations, basically what I found on some forums (mostly Gearslutz). But now I try to find it again, I see that it is a bit more complicated then just "don't use diffusers in small rooms". It probably has to do with the fact that diffusers need a bit of room to work. Also, what I read, I should have my bass "under control" before using diffusers. Also, there is a practical thing for the rear wall. There is a hatch there for my attic. So I need to open the door completely in order to get to this. The panels I installed, I can easily remove so I can acces the Hatch, but a diffuser, or shelf or anything would be impractical I think. When I meant, I built the panels myself, I meant, me and my dad (who is an excellent carpenter) built them, and when I say that I mean, my dad built them:) But he certainly has all the tools you'll ever need. So it won't be a problem. I see my pictures won't show anymore? Is something wrong with the forum? Thanks again for all the help Mike!

Happy birthday Prof!!

BTW, you are right about the flutter thing. Even with the panels, I still have a fair amount of flutter echo in the high register, so probably also in the low (which is harder to identify for me).

woah Mike. Thank you for your time to post that. I indeed have to read this a couple a time before I fully grasp. The room dimensions are 4,50Lx2,03Wx2,20H (meters). I should also tell you the outside wall (the one opposite to where the guitars hanging and the one with the window) are concrete. The others are plasterboard with rock wool behind them. So the reflection is probably asymmetrical. The floor is Laminate. The cabinet is a wooden one, I don't think it is resonating? (could be wrong of course..). The panels I made myself. They are made with high density Rockwool (the 221 type). I read that diffuser are not a good idea in small rooms, so broadband absorbers was probably the way to go (also for the rear wall). I still have one of the panels left. The idea was to put it on the ceiling, but I didn't do it because I think it may looked too cramped. Maybe I should.. I did some measurements with Room EQ wizard with a cheap measurement microphone. I have attached the before and after graphs. The panels really do help a lot, but the graph is still less than ideal. (I really like this thread, learning a lot!)

Mike, Did you see the pictures I posted in the first post?

A bit too late, but congrats:)

Thank you all for the good information. Love this site! @Mike, with "lack of definition", I mostly mean not a really tight bass. The high's sound quite nice to my ears, but in the lower register there is still a bit of "woohm" sounding going on. It probably also has to do with the less than ideal room. I measured that after my treatment I still have quite a big peak at around 100hz, so maybe that's the reason. I was hoping that with bigger cones the bass would be tighter. @dB, I read about good reviews about those A7x's, but also read from people that the A7x vs the T7V are a marginal difference. That led to my conclusion that the T7v's would maybe be a step up for me. In my situation, do you recommend a subwoofer? I had the feeling I should stay away from subwoofers for mixing, but actually I am a complete n00b, so I have no idea.

As said, around 800 Maybe?

I'm Looking to upgrade my JBL LSR305 with something better. I have a small room, and have done some treatment (which helped A LOT!). But still the JBL's are lacking a bit of definition. For the price they are quite good, but my ears are getting better and I have the feeling I could use something better. Are the Adams T series a step up? Other recommendations. Below are pictures of the room. Budget, I was hoping to stay below 800 euro's for the pair.

for future reference for people. I'm working on a new Mac mini 2020 now and have now problems regarding glitches what so ever.

Mmm, too bad. It"s not visible in the Netherlands.

Can't help you, and don't want to go too much OT, but; Do you like it? I'm thinking about getting one for in the studio myself.

Hi welcome! Does the synthesizer needs keys? as you see you into arpeggiation stuff and a guitar player? Maybe you can settle for a desktop unit. This save probably money and room. From the options you mention, I would stay away from the JV30. That is a dated rompler with not much editing options.

Wow really nice! What a room! How does it sound? Does it need or are you planning some acoustic treatment?

Until now, I really thought those were the lyrics! Interesting topic:)

I have the vortex wireless 2 version. According to cme it uses Its own WiFi 2,4ghz protocol. So no Bluetooth. That"s why it can"t connect.

I was hoping i felt in the second case; BLE to midi. But the vortex doesn"t connect and I still have to use the midi out on my hardware synth, even though i don"t want that.
