I wasn’t thinking cubicles in the ‘Office Space’ sense, but small offices/ soud booths. My question is do I put in sound booths or build wall to the ceiling and sound proof them or put in sound booths. I know there are pro’s and con’s for all, but my research so far shows lots of examples for building a great edit suite in a room, but not how to build that room. Or 4 of them 😉

Thanks

Mark

Doh! I’ve done so many google searches try to find stuff but never once used the work CONSTRUCTION. Thanks for pointing out the obvious cos I really did miss it!

We’re looking at 4 edit suits and 6 19″ racks with various decks (we do global so have the full mix of NTSC and PAL) and an XSAN. Current plans are G5/ Intels with dual screens and reference monitors running rom the XSAN and only the ingest/output Macs connected to the racks. That way I only need to run fibre to the edit Macs.

The issue is getting comfortable environments, good sound proofing and air circulation whilst still connected to the big racks of equipment.

Thanks for all the input, it’s great to have so many talented people offering ideas.

Cheers

Mark
