Studio Design

Either in your own home or in a business environment, different styles and approaches for the layout of your studio are examined. Building sound absorption walls, vocal booths, choosing the right equipment, inter-connection, and soundproofing are all examined. Plus a ton of valuable information that most studio builders overlook when putting together their first room.

The acoustics of a room need to be designed to meet the purpose of the room. In the recording room the acoustics may be designed "enhance" the sound of the recording and in control room the acoustics need to very controlled and predictable so the engineer, producer, and musicians can trust what they are hearing in the monitors. In a church or a theater the sound needs to project into the room.

For example, a control room needs to have balanced acoustics, meaning a proper balanced absorption the frequencies and reflections are well controlled and diffused. If all the walls are covered with foam the room will sound boomy, and the mixes will have too much high frequencies and little bass out in the real world. Some of the topics covered in these lessons are sound attenuation, sound isolation, acoustics, room design, room calibration.

At the end of this course you will be able to create and design functional studio rooms, isolation booths and more. A summary evaluation and diploma will be provided for each student at the completion of the course.
