the ventilation tubes coming directly from the studio needed to be isolated.

my aim was to do it in such a manner that i would always be able to get easy access to them without having to tear the place apart.

so i built a little box in a box...

we tried the final wallpaper on a small part of the wall.

looks like an old mansion ;-)

I moved a part of my drumkit to the studio.

The first result of the sound level test is not too good :-((

too much "contact-noise", especially in the low frequenties.

I'll have to build something like an isolated stage (on rubber) for the drumkit.

more on that later...
