    I reckon that is a complete ‘suck it and see’ type experiment setting that room up .

    It looks like a roof space, so for one if you are recording you will pick up the weather/wind/rain noise fairly easily.

    If the walls and floors aren’t solid you may pick up any neighbours as well . 
    Apart from making those allowances , the noise will  travel out to your neighbours as well ! 
    May be also some hard hats for those at the thin end 😉

    You exactly right my friend

    It is a roof space but has its good side to it

    So for me my biggest concern come when creating a space for mixing that sounds good (not perfect but good!)

    As it's a roof space I do pick rain, not wind tho and as for the neighbours, we'll I don't have any as I'm on tge corner and I rent the unit on the other side too so all good there. Also being an industrial estate, closes its doors at 5pm after thst I'm always on my own, notice not an issue.

    Regarding outside noise

    This is the smaller room in the unit and the room next to it it's slightly bigger and I Tought of setting up a little vocal booth, so when it rains I can still record vocals and guitars.

    So where would place the desk? Higher wall? Will the slanted wall kill tge sound gradually?  I remember reading an article where they always reccomend Ed using the higher wall to set your monitors but can't remember if that it's really what I actually read 😂😂

    3 bass traps panels 100 x600x 50 

    Super large rug Iranian 363cm x 238

    Another 2 m x1. 30 m hemp rug

    Help and advice welcome

    I know this room is not the best option but it will have to do,also next to the desk there is a big boiler

    Thank you

    Do you already have any other outboard recording equipment or have you been doing everything "in the box" so far?

    While some outboard equipment can add to your recordings if most of your processing is done using plug-ins, you may find that the expense and hassle of getting your outboard equipment to interface properly with your computer and DAW is probably going to be too much. Remember that unless you are mixing down to an external device (does anyone do this nowadays?) any externally processed audio is going to have to go through two stages of analogue/digital conversion which is going add latency to just those signals.

    IMO: The mic pre-amp is worth keeping. You can use this as a front-end to your audio interface. The compressor isn't really going to be much use, it's not a particularly esoteric model and you should already have far better compressor plug-ins. If you find you are having problems controlling input levels from your microphone it might be worth having daisy-chained between the mic pre-amp and the interface. It's only single channel so it won't be much use for post processing.

    That leaves the 3rd Dimension. This is an interesting one, being pretty much an exact clone of the classic Roland Dimension D processor. If you like the sound you may find it indispensable, and despite what you might read none of the plug-in versions really come close to the hardware. Which leaves you with a conundrum; how best to use it? Once again you only have the single device. This is a problem people thinking about going back to using hardware don't always realise straight away - when you buy a plug-in you can use as many instances as you like, but with hardware you need another device every time you need to simultaneously process another signal unless you are happy to process everything on one setting via a bus. What you have ask yourself is this: Is the sound so good that it is worth the hassle of sorting out input/output routing and the latency and hassle that goes with it. You'll need to try it and see, as only you can answer that question.

    Hi mate, thank you for your help.

    I ve always done everything in the box and never used hardware

    However as I have it I would love to have the option and incorporate it in my set up. My question is how do I connect all those into my audio interface. I agree regarding the comp but as it was given to me I feel bad about given it away

    So guys a bit of luck finally got my way! To cut story short...

    A friend of mine moved from his home studio into a professional studio

    He upgraded all his gear and has gave me as a present few outboard gear

    Klark Teknik 76 compressor

    Klark Teknik 3rd dimension

    And warm audio mic pre

    Now.... I want to expand my studio and at the moment I have a babyface pro (which I love and wanna keep).

    What is the best option for me to connect all this outboard gear?

    Should I expand the babyface pro via adat? Shall I get a mixer?

    All advice on how to do so are welcome

    Thank you in advance

    Most expensive bass you've come across

    I am not a fan of the asthetic of foderas (I have no idea what they are like to play, I assume they are good), but that one is not actually too bad, as it doesn't have any knobs to be scattered randomly all over the place. But why does that XLR have to be just dumped there like they threw it at a dartboard?

    I love how ritter put their sockets on the back, it makes so much sense

    Cause that's how Anthony Jackson wanted it👍🏼
