It completely changed how I work now, where previously I tended to think about FX in terms of the mix, now being able to hear much more detail in each separate instrument/vocal I tend to 'optimize' the individual sound first and during mix mainly focus on EQ to get rid of problems from overlapping spectra and add (a tiny bit) reverb to glue things.

Dude, I wish I had the space to even think about acoustic treatment

But, the lava lamp, isn't that a bit too cliché?
edit: damn, did I really write "dude"???
As for the space, that room is actually too small to be called a studio, it's measuring just over 2 meters wide and 3 meters deep. Hence the acoustic treatment, without it it was impossible to mix in.
