I made a short video showing the current status of the isolation booth in it’s beginning stages. More like naked beginnings. You can catch it here on YouTube.

For those of you who come by often enough to know that I haven’t posted in a long, long time – this may come as a shock – but I’m still here.. I’ve been buried in all sorts of projects – the new studio being one of them. It has the old studio beat hands down as far as toys and bells and whistles. One of the most exciting is a complete voice over workstation for my VO students with a mixer, microphone, headphones and a windows computer that is ProTools and Adobe Audition equipped. For years I had to try to explain all of the hands on technology that goes along with learning and performing in a home studio, and now my VO students can sit down at a workstation and go through the motions for real as they practice their technique. It’s a real score for the students and allows the training to become so much more in depth. I have wanted it for a long time and finally it has arrived. Otherwise the construction is about 75 percent done and all of the equipment wiring has yet to begin. The new booth hasn’t been built yet and a series of doors will be added in the near future. However all of the nice things like direct TV and a bunch of televisions make down time go a little better. So – in short – we’re almost there and new students are starting to make their way by to check things out. We should be fully operational by March or April, but will be resuming classes in the new studio in a week or two. Pictures will be up on the boards soon… After years of sitting on this project, we finally blew the dust off of it and got it up on the Internet. If you have ever wanted to see the background design work that goes into building a sound isolation booth capable of delivering at least a –80 dB noise floor if not greater, this is the article you want to follow. New construction plans are in the works for a new location for the studio. MineWurx Studio will be moving just a few blocks away, in Tiger Woods terms thats Driver, 3-Iron, 8-Iron to the front door. Sound Isolation is going to be a real trick here because we wont have the protection of 14 inch thick rock and plaster walls at the new place. The design and actual configuration are going to be crucial to make sure some yo-yo testing out how his Harley sounds down the street wont hold us hostage during production work. There are plans for more study, lesson and production space as well. I think overall it will be a much more comfortable experience for everyone including those of us who sit in it hour after hour, night after night (actual line from some copy we have laying around). We’ll be sure to keep you up to date on the progress. Studio contstruction skinny.. Boy, I can’t wait… |
