I have no midi in my computer. I play the keyboard through amp I bring into room. The midi is between keyboards. I do no sequence. If I must play something I cannot play, then I spend much time practicing till I can do it!

If only more people did this instead of seeing technology as the end rather than the means.

But to be honest, in any of our normal rooms, we don't need to measure anything, next to the screen is the best place to put the monitors.

deastman; I have a pait too, they are nice, but set up normally:)

I was worried that my (the very first) reply was a stupid one and that he might have been joking all along. Phew! My mockery skills are still valid!

No offence Alive my man but all that CAD stuff is bloody hilarious for a nice rectangular room!

Hey, I just saw this thread. Great little set up there! I can't wait until I get the finishing pieces for my home setup and a camera to share it with.

Goodluck with music making.

The pictures lie. All the wall have 11" slope to make the room a pyramidial frustrum. The bass nodes in the room are very small. I am still working on making flutter echo less.

Wow. I had to look up a lot of words for that paragraph

Yeah, it can seem a little bit obsessive, but frankly if you are willing (and have the desire) to put that kind of effort into placement, the payoff IS impressive. If it's not that important to you, that's fair enough. But personally I think it's great.

Nice approach to avoid using MIDI. I do use MIDI but i'd never use MIDI sequencing. If i play some kind of solo, i take just one try, no matter how often i miss a tone. I never try twice, though my songs would be better like that

Soon I will have midi

I want to store my performances and tweak the keyboard when I mix. I do this with my guitar and bass with Re-Amp. Why should I not be able to do it with keyboards?

I've got a bollocking great big room which has really high roof with my "studio" along one wall. With the monitors directed at my head and not too loud the reflections are very little.

In my testing a DIRAC givesvery high reflection and echo. A 40hz, 60hz, 120hz, 200hz pulse gives almost no problem anywhere in room. Some foam will help the echo

And will make my room look very nice!

Do you think some purple or white 3 inch foam will decorate the room well? It will solve my echo problem too.

Go with some tie-dye or paisley pattern drapes dude!

Roof as well! Make the place like a beduin tent. Everything really loose. Dont put money in the pockets of foam makers!

Use my best friend for reading kvr-vst.com

www.acronymfinder.com

www.dictionary.com

www.google.com

Wow. None of these find it. It is for my use a 1 sample at full level.

Come again?

Sorry. I mean can you explain that in some more detail?

I'm a newcomer to all things audio apart from hitting a guitar!

One sample at full level. This make a small pulse. Once you test the speaker and the mic with the pulse you can test the room response. This best show reflection and echo.

After you do this then sweep and noise are used to measure.

After this you use sweep with DIRAC at beginning and noise with DIRAC at beginning.

The speakers and microphone I have come with impulse response diagram. I use this with room diagram to subtract data and find what the room is doing. It is long process

Just as I think a person should know how to program the synthesizer so well, a person should know how to program their room so well.
