I had my brother check out my bands studio today, he is a sound engineer and we needed someone with his knowhow to tell us what we needed to do to soundproof the place and also to give us practical advice as how to best set up our gear to minimize hiss and unwanted sound reflections.
Anyway, we sure have our work cut out for us, we have to build a whole inner shell for the studio to minimize sound leakage, also we will have to seal off the windows in the studio which is a real shame, there is a large window above our recording console, i think its what you call a skylight and i just love working in natural light as opposed to electrical lighting but the downside is that when it rains the window sounds like the worlds largest popcorn making machine so it has to be sealed off..
