Re: [LAU] Measuring the acoustical characteristics of my studio using FLOSS software?

Thanks for all your comments! I've built and mounted most of the planned
absorbers, with one exception; the absorber panels on each side of the LP,
which incidentally is what you're talking about ;-) thanks FOR bringing up
the mirror thing Carlos, that's what I've been thinking about doing, but
perhaps I shouldn't then given this conversation...

So, if the mirror trick doesn't work as intended, is there some other rule
of thumb I can use when placing my absorber panels on the sides of my LP?
Fons?

Thanks for all the help again all of you!
