In this previous thread yosh shows off his beautifull studio.
His site is http://www.themaproomstudio.com/.
His control room area is in the live room. This way of working has always fascinated me.
We used to have a portastudio in our rehersal room... when the engineer is part of the band it's just easier to ditch the control room altogether.
I kind of miss that way of working.
Is anyone here using a mixed control/live room?
What are the pro's & cons in your experience ( tracking with headphones)?
What's your workflow like?
How do you try out new mics/pres and stuff?
Don't you have to turn up your phones dangerously loud when you're tracking drums/guitar amp?
Can you hear the differences in mic selection/placement?
Do you have iso rooms?
Any thoughts or experiences are greatly welcomed.
Mike
