House/Rooms
CH 02 Rooms
Wood, air, and a kit that is already there.
One live room. One booth. Flip the strip and compare them.
CH A Live
42 m²
The live room takes a four-piece, a bass amp, and one more voice if you insist.
Diffusers are wood. The kit stays in the corner. Drums stay put between sessions, so the cases that come through the alley are amps, guitars, and the snare you will not leave at home.

CH B Booth
Dead on purpose
It is small so a voice can sit close.
A guitar cab if you must, and enough silence that the chorus does not come back wearing the room. Digital at 48k unless the song asks for 96.

CH 05 Load-in

Headphones are in the house. The kit is already in the corner. Bring the snare you will not leave at home.
