Thanks Kev for the details.

BTW, the room is about 20x30 ft.

The wall in photo is the 20 ft wide wall.



I have always set up playing (me facing out into the room).. With all the panels behind me.
But being that the other wall (you cant see) has no treatment or anything.. guess that was a no-no.


OK! I will switch things around.
Set up facing the wall.. (start with being 8 feet back from that wall). Place several panels along the wall and then put a couple behind me.

BTW, the right corner where the over stuffed chair is... The corner is a huge couch cushion that I have vertical as a bass trap.

Will check this new design out and report !

Thx all!

I agree with runamuck and Rick surrounding yourself with the panels good and getting them up off the floor also 1 to 2 ft. As you say I just built a basic 1by 4 H shaped wood frame with feet

So to that end I would get further out from the wall BUT definitely not in dead center of the entire space .... So closer to the wall where your wood chair is than the wall behind you in the photos
I would face the wall with wood chair and have then have mic's face you. And start with maybe 3 or 4 panels behind the mics (which would be as Rick suggested in front of you .. with possibly the 6 inch ones at a 45 degree angle in the corners on the chair wall or depending on ( what the item on the right side of the chair is ? ) The chair is actually a reasonable corner bass trap. so you could maybe try the two 6" ones side by side at 45 degrees across the left ( in photo ) corner .
