just brew it! wrote:Sure, it can. In its initial state it is a Schrodinger guitar, which is a quantum superposition of Fender and Gibson. It doesn't resolve into one or the other until you actually hear it being played.

This guy runs a small (but successful) studio in Nashville and he's getting tight vocals with just a couple of mattress-looking foam things. It's cheap and it apparently works.

I'm not even thinking of setting up a studio and I thought that was really interesting.
just brew it! wrote:My brother built a studio in his basement a number of years back. He put a lot of insulation in the ceiling to provide acoustic isolation from the rest of the house, and IIRC the biggest problem turned out to be cooling -- it got really hot and stuffy inside the recording booth.

Ryan Bort, Newsweek wrote:I thought that the drunk guy from the future was supposed to warn us about terminators.A man arrested in Wyoming this week says he had traveled back in time from the year 2048 to warn civilization about the imminent arrival of aliens. On Monday night, authorities in Casper received a call about a visibly drunk man claiming to be from the future, according to KTWO. Officers arrived to find Bryant Johnson warning that aliens would be coming next year and that people should leave as soon as possible. He claimed he was from the future. Johnson was so concerned about his mission to save humanity that he requested to speak to the "president of the town." Cops said Johnson had bloodshot eyes, slurred speach and a blood-alcohol reading that exceeded legal limits — but the alleged time-traveler had a perfectly logical explanation: the only way the aliens could send him back in time was to fill his body with alcohol and making him stand on a giant pad. He was arrested nonetheless.

That's actually not a bad idea. Though on second thought, there's a small conflict of interest, as I'd be asking them to help me not use their services. I plan to use the booth myself though, for non music-related vocal work (possible future change in profession), so maybe if I pitch it to them that way...

I assume the other 16 were briefly exposed to humidity higher than 3.8% and promptly disintegrated into a shoebox' worth of rust sometime between 30 and 54 years ago.
