If what I puzzled together is right then leave it on, you'll get a tinny sound on your recordings cuz the joint is only like 2x3 meters... oh yea fukk I have no clue what that is in ft. That way when you spit a verse it will be bouncing from one wall to the other cuz the distances are so small.

But yo, I always sucked at physics, so don't mark me on that.
As I was sayin, that is what I can imagine : The rule being, some padding for big booths in the right spots to make the room sound "good" and alotta padding if your room is small cuz it is not possible to get natual ambience/sound in there. therefore you just kill it... and replace it lateron with digital reverb, etc.. right??????.....would be nice if someone who really knows what hes talking bout could elaborate on that

You could always record the vocals dry- play them through a speaker in say a garage or bathroom and record it- and then mix that signal back in with the original for some natural reverb the old skool way

all i did for the booth was took a couple 4x8 pieces of plywood and cut them down to fit in the corner of the room. forget exact dimensions. then i screwed them loosly togethether at the corner, cut a really crappy door with a skil saw,


the only treatment in there right now is some old foam sleeping pade we cut up and stapled to the walls.

heres how it sounds:

whoa, sounds too um... closed in? Sounds like you have no air in the booth. Could that be because of the mic? or is it the booth padding? You know what I did one time. I took the mic out of the booth and let my peoples record some freestyles and it sounded a lot better for party shit. It had more ambiance. It all depends what type of track you are making. With my setup, the mic stays in for serious songs, and outside for party type tracks.
