Description : In this course, you’ll see Jim Pavett consult with the owner, architect, and construction team, and how they all work together to complete the job faster. Listen as they discuss the initial design, meet with the contractor, and conduct an initial site assessment. Watch as the team collaborates to create acoustically correct floors, walls, and ceilings.
Enough acoustic theory, let’s start building! In this third course from our Studio Design and Construction series you get an on-location look at how a project studio actually gets built!
Every recording studio starts out as a dream, and every dream is different! This particular owner’s dream was to build a studio as an addition to an existing structure. In documentary fashion, you are included in the extended process as his studio makes its way through the trials and tribulations of design and construction until his dream becomes a finished, working reality.
Join Jim Pavett as he consults with the owner, the architect and the construction team as they all work together to get the job done. Listen in as they discuss the initial project. Meet up with the contractor as they do an initial site evaluation. From there, like an apprentice on the job, you watch the team work together as the acoustically-correct floors, walls and ceiling go up.
This course follows in the footsteps of the other courses in the Studio Edge series where you get all of the basic theory, physics and acoustic information of the studio construction process?so be sure to watch them all!
