One Room Golden Section Project Studio
Part 1
 
By Bob Dennis

Way back when I began my recording career, the studios were large and the control rooms were small.  If you wanted drums, they were setup, recorded and played.  You couldn't have this in the same room as the recording console. 

But today most of the drum sounds are programmed into a computer in the form of samples.  Live drums are sometimes used, but it is remarkable that things like this are no longer essential to production.  So many musicians doing their projects don't really need to build two rooms - they can do everything in one room.  About the only thing you have to record live is a vocal.  You may record some things like guitars, but many parts will be added with a keyboard.
Many project studios going into the basement don't really have the room to make a separate control room and studio, let along factoring in costs. I am, therefore, making this week's task the design of a one-room project studio that still takes into account the acoustically great Golden Section formula.
