About

This is a single-person notebook about recording rooms rather than instruments. It exists because I kept losing scraps of paper.

What is here

Measurements, placement sketches, and the occasional admission that a recording was unusable. I write entries after the fact, so they are short and a little unfair to the room.

There is no newsletter and no comment section. If a note is wrong, it stays wrong until I get back to the same space with a microphone.

Conventions

Decay figures
Estimated from clap tests, not swept sine. Treat them as ranges.
Placement
Distances are from the nearest reflective surface, not from the source.
Levels
Peak, not integrated loudness, unless a note says otherwise.
