Been really busy the past couple days. I moved the
bass traps to the new studio and these have become the
"corner traps". The old ones were a neutral color
and the "bass bags" I had were sort of white., so I
covered the entire corner with black fabric.
That's my 12 foot ladder I scored on Craigslist for $80!
Next I
took my 4 "Ready Bags" that I had ordered in gray for my
old room and covered them in black fabric too.
Really only the front and sides are covered and then
pinned with safety pins on the back side. Two of
these are on the ceiling and the other two on the wall
above the AC unit and above the door.
I've
also been assembling some 2" thick absorbers in my
garage. For these I'm using spray adhesive to
affix black fabric, then I use some liquid nails glue to
tack a piece of foamboard on the back. I also
sandwiched some "hooks" in between the board and the
703. Then I will hang these like a picture behind
the mixing desk.
Funny
thing... I went to buy some black fabric and found
some cotton sheet-like material (44" width) at Walmart
for $3/yd. But they also sold twin sheets which
were 7ft long and 66" width for $4 each. So I
bought a bunch of these sheets and that's what I'm using
to cover all these things. They are probably not
flame retardant, but fit the budget. There will
not be any candles or smoking in my studio anyway...
Finally, started moving the equipment into the new
studio. Some pictures of the desk being assembled.
Tomorrow I will wire up and then start moving drums. |
