Help Again! I have a room set aside to make a music room out of. As in I sing, have piano, keyboards, drums, guitars and various and sundry other instruments. An iMAC, huge printer, Tascam and other recording/playback type devices. Mic stand, etc. But, after hours on internet, no project patterns, no purchase ideas. Arghhhh....Who thought this would be so hard.

Not sure what your question is, but I have a couple! First, how big is the room? And how high the ceiling? You list a lot of equipment and instruments that even themselves will take some space. One of my customers in SoCA practiced drums and they alone take some space.

Next, are the walls and ceiling insulated? And where are you? United States is not very descriptive when it comes to weather issues. Put your location in your profile as I have done and then we won't have to ask again.

Next, will you have to sound insulate to keep peace with your neighbors? Sound insulation and thermal insulation are two different things BTW. I can direct you to a good source for sound insulation, but your location will effect delivery of the materials.
