Artist Studio Rug

how can i make a room look cool. sort of like the set of "its on with alexa chung"?

hi, so i live with my mom but im over at my dads appartment a lot and he has an extra room that is completely plain and empty and he said i can do anything i want to it.. so i want to decorate it a little. theres no bed in it, but i dont really want to turn it into a bedroom. im thinking of getting a cool sort of victorian style couch or maybe an old sofa.

but anyways.. i like the style that lofts often have. the whole wood floors, victorian style rug and old sofa. maybe some cool artwork and random sculptures lol. like an artists studio.
i also like what alexa has going on in her set: http://www.flickr.com/photos/41664200@N05/3842866873/

so i have some ideas of what to do already. i have some of my own art that i'll put in there and i'll work on finding a couch..

but yeh, any ideas or pictures would be great. thanks
oh wow.. i didnt know they had a name for it lol in fact i didnt even know it was a style :]

You sound as if your describing Shabby Chic and this is really fun to go with..Go to garage sales and flea markets and just mix and match.This style you can really load up with and it does'nt look cluttered.Also if you are into music, art or other things mix this in with it also and show your personality.They really have some great area rugs at Menards Homecenter that are affordable..

How To Set Up a Home Recording Studio in 7 Days Flat - Day 3

Having your own home recording studio is one of the biggest advantages you can provide for yourself as a musician.  In this 7 part report on setting up your own home recording studio, we are discussing some of the technical specifications and advantages to necessary recording equipment.   As we roll into Day 3, it is time to discuss microphones and how to choose the right one for your home recording studio.

For the home recording studio, there are three basic microphone types you need to be concerned with.  Each type will have it's own unique set of advantages and disadvantages so choosing the microphone that best suits your needs involves carefully considering these factors.

The Dynamic Microphone

This microphone is the most commonly used microphone in the music industry for a few specific reasons.  The dynamic microphone is extremely rugged and relatively inexpensive.  What does this mean to the home recording artist? Basically, if your recording rig is portable, the dynamic microphone is the most likely candidate to fit your needs and survive the abuse.

The dynamic microphone has inherent flaws in its design that result in a less than optimal frequency response.  With the high volume  and the close proximity of the microphone to the instrument  in live performances, this limitation is not a problem.   For the recording studio, where you may want to capture true sound and higher frequencies, however, the dynamic microphone just won't be up to the task.

The Capacitor Microphone

This is the microphone class that was built for studio recording.  These microphones will reproduce the full spectrum of sound with nearly perfect quality.    By choosing capacitor microphones with different sized diaphragms, you can customize the microphone to match it's intended purpose and enhance the quality of the sound.  For vocal recordings, use a larger diaphragm size.  For precision recording of instruments, the smaller diaphragm sizes  produce an extremely accurate recording.

Now for the bad news.  The capacitor microphone is an excellent choice for a home recording studio with an unlimited budget and a fixed location.  Why?  With increased quality, you also encounter increased cost,( read double or triple the cost of a top notch dynamic microphone) and the capacitor microphone requires its own power source so you are buying even more equipment right out of the gate.   If your recording needs take you outside of the studio very often, the capacitor microphone isn't as durable as the dynamic microphone  so your investment could be lost.

The Electret Microphone

Somewhere in between the capacitor microphone and the dynamic microphone, the electret microphone was born.  This microphone is able to reproduce sound with nearly the same quality as a condenser microphone while retaining the cost effective strengths of the dynamic microphone.  Improvements such as the invention of the back electret microphone, these microphones are capable of producing excellent audio quality that rivals the capacitor microphone for the budget friendly price of a top quality dynamic microphone.
