The original layout/design were giving me tons of problems in the low end, and nothing seemed to make it better. It's just the problem inherent in a smaller room. So, what I did was knock out a couple of walls (that were part of the studio not the house) so I could turn the gear 90 degrees so the room is now wider than it is long. I have 4" wedge foam in 6'x2' panels a foot apart on the rear wall and just drywall on the front, for the "live end/dead end" effect. Sounds great in the mix position but is just a tad boomy outside of t
hat. I used the software SMAART to anylize the room but the traps I'd need would take up too much space. The problem is that the boom goes up as you get close to the foam wall. For me an eq won't help because the mix position is fine, so I think I'll do some mixes there over the weekend and if they sound fine. Still, I don't know what I'll do if they are bass-wonky. jef Mike wrote: > Has anyone analyzed their control room and had success with adjustments?

Over 36 hours ago, I e-mailed all pertinent data (original order number, key number, original response code as well as the S/N from my EDS 1000 Card and the new Challenge Code for my new installation on the G4) to support@intdevices.com, but have heard nothing back. I'm starting to get a little worried. Has anyone recently obtained their Pace Key Authorization through support@intdevices.com and, if so, how soon did you hear back from them? Also, is this the only way to obtain Pace Key authorization? If you've recently obtained Pace Key authorization for Paris 3.0, could you share with me the process? Thanks for your help. Best wishes, Richard Faylor RichardFaylor@aol.comDoes anyone know of some room analysis software for a mac?

Good people with good practical advice. I bought 4 bales of 6 panels of 2'X4' - 3" Roxul RXL40 rigid insulation and made four floor to ceiling corner absorbers (2'X8') and nine 2'X4' wall panels as well as a single 6' X 4' wall panels framed in cedar that pretty well tamed most of the problems but I'm still tweaking My room is 19'X10'X8' plaster over slats on 2X4 framed walls.

I did already check Jaycar. Didn't see those parts though. Do you think that big rubber one would be ok for foot use? It certainly seems suitable size and shape wise, but I'm wondering if the plastic would be up to the task of being kicked around. It doesn't mention foot use in the description. Cheers, Kim.
