Rawcus Studios is a self build recording studio in a shipping container in Mid Devon. This build took 8 months of research and preparation, with 3 months build time during the summer of 2019.

Fuck you Glen, you think this is actually a good project worth the money of a shipping container? There's no room in there, he would've been better off making the entire space one big mix room. Plus there's no ventilation in the recording room so even if you manage to fit more than one person in there it'll be a dutch-concentration-camp-oven in no time!

Before leaving a commenting on the Control room acoustic treatment please read this!: The Control room treatment shown in this video was a temporary solution using old pieces of low quality foam from another project. This was just put up as I didn't have the budget to kit this room out and its is better than nothing. I have now treated the control room properly, which you can see on Instagram @rawbrass

After seeing all the thought, planning, and work that you went to to build the rest of the studio, the thought never crossed my mind that you were going to leave the control room treated (mistreated?) thusly. And even if you did, all would still have to be forgiven due to the niftiness of the XLR keychain. A+++!

I used to build studios professionally and what I learned is to make walls non parallel. In a tight space like this you could off- set one end of both walls to be wider at the main door and skinnier in the back. It only takes an inch or so for each so 2” total difference in the width. Absorbers first mid- low on corners goes a long way. Good job

Super interesting to see someone else make one of these. I built my first one in 2018, still going strong. Some differences to yours though. I did floating floor and the resilient channel to hang the walls on, did double layer sound bloc plaster and at the front doors I did sliding glass with cedar cladding. Instead of 2 rooms in the studio I went for a porch/foyer and main room as I'm a media composer and don't really do the band-y stuff when you'd benefit form a "live" room. The porch has tea making facility, the fuse boxes and split system AC controls etc. All my stud walls and floor had rubber mounts to eliminate even more vibrations. Currently get total noise cancelation of 100DB inside to outside. Obvs I can't hear any of there outside while in the studio and it can even hail on the roof with no noise penetration. I did all my wiring under the floor studs to make sure there was zero holes in the walls. My lighting and sound panels are all mounted to an internal skeleton structure that hugs the outside of the internal walls. all of the skeleton is hidden behind light recess panels and sound panels - result = no holes in the walls. The only holes are behind the AC fan and those that come up for the plug outlets in the floor. The main room has a great studio door that I reclaimed from the old BBC studios that weighed 100kg! I built it inside a high cube container and have a 6 inch ventilated space between the roof and the ceiling insulation that is also protected by plastic. This allows any condensation to dry out quickly as that cavity has outside vents. The big steel external doors still close for when I need to lift it to a new location (although my biggest fear remains someone closing them and locking me inside! To the point I keep a metal disc cutter in a cupboard inside. No Joke! I really should remove the doors from the outside when it's stationary, but I do enjoy being able to close it shut when I am away from the property for holiday etc. Something I never did and have always meant to do is build steel frame cedar decking and step to sit flush that I can disassemble and take with me. Something that always strikes me is if I've been away for a few weeks, it still smells like the day I built it when I return, a freshly constructed kind of smell, that smell then goes away until I'm not it there for ages again. One day I if I ever have the space, I'd like to make a 40ft one and mound stone and earth around the sides and roof so it's like a hobbit studio within a man made hill, and turf the whole thing with lovely plants etc. and Furthermore I'd like to join 2 x 40ft with 2 x 20ft in a square formation with a central garden.... I never get to talk about the construction to anyone so sorry for me doing a massive long comment!

Outstanding! Just one, minor, critique, if I may, Rockwool's ability to absorb vibration, as a dense mass, is the same whether they are contained (like, in 3mm mdf or 1mm sheet trans PVC with dust tape around the edges), or whether they are left bare (like just wrapped in fabric). may I suggest for anyone following this lovely, genius, project to contain your rockwool. The effects of Rockwool for absorbing low end through localized mass is 100% the same. The unhealthy effects and signs of exposed rockwool are not apparent at first, but put some bass into the room, and get those particles (in the rockwool) moving, or activating, and you'll will not be .... well....whatever...good build.
