Hey everyone!
I am so happy, I finally got myself a BOOTH! Oh, my god! It is awesome! 4x6 WhisperRoom, double-walled!

Please do not ask how much LOL..... Many of you will probably tink I fell from a tree or something....... just really wanted it, wanted it fast.. and did NOT want to search forever.
Oy... we live once. I wanted it so I got it... eventually (hopefully} it will pay off. For now, I am enjoying sitting in there LOL... I am so crazy about it, I wanted to sleep in there last night LOL
Peace!

I LOVE new gear! I hope your booth behaves itself and goes together easily.

Balky,
I bought a 4x4 Whisper Room last year.
It was nerve-wracking because it was expensive. But they are quality booths.
It significantly improved my acoustics, and has pretty much paid for itself since then. Congratulations! |

Oh guys, thanks so much... it was a nightmare to get 31 boxes off the truck and to the 9th floor...t hank god there were two of us... but still could've used a couple of more hands...
then, it took about 2 days to put it together!
I had read prior about these booths, I ordered bass traps and additional foam... so, it sounds so nice and clean!
Geez, I must be crazy, the other night before going to work instead of going to bed, LOL I was walking in and out and around the booth... I felt like sleeping in it LOL
I can't believe I have it. and YES, it still has the smell of a new booth... that smell is so familiar to all of you... smell of recording facility, studios... smell of fabric...
I feel so inspired now... god give me lots and lots of work.... LOL

I can imagine how nerve-wracking... I paid 8,453.00 for it... Is it nerve wracking? Hell yeah!

| May your new booth bring you many $$$. I must admit I never realized how many of the city sounds I used to block out until now when I'm trying to record. |

Oh boy, You will not believe how lucky I am to live between two hospitals and a fire station, JFK Airport, the road and a parking lot below and the subway line right out my window!
I've got it all! GEEZ!
Every 10 minutes a train passes by, ambulance, fire tracks plains, cars and busses, grbage collectors, you name it!
Man, I nedded the damn booth!
The funny part is, even if I lived in the deep woods, I think I would buy one anyway LOL It is facinating to have it at home. well, I gave up my bedroom, but hey, we always make sacrofices... every day. Thath's life!

That's big $$$ - and may it bring you big $$$..
In any case, living where you do - at least you now have a sanctuary! |
