My whole problem is space, in that, there isn't any. I wish I had some pictures of my studio to show you, but I don't. I have managed to fit more equipment and a nice sized vocal booth into a room than I really should be able to. It's fun defying physics. So much so that I had to buy a portable 12000 BTU air conditioner when I want to use the studio, the equipment heats it up fairly quickly.
I am in an apartment, so structural changes are limited, hence my vocal booth can come apart (which I would rather not do) to be moved. The closet is VERY POORLY designed and won't provide ANY sound isolation. The reason I am asking about the flower fan is I don't want to go through this again. I am okay with the HD noise and the power supply noise, I have had them before. What changed was when I had to buy a high powered fan for the CPU, and it is like 5 times as loud as the other items. It's making me insane :) Rick FG> About the only sure-fire way I've found is to locate the CPU in a completely FG> different room and remote connect the keyboard/monitor/mouse to the studio. FG> Commericial units are available that will do this nicely using Cat 5 cable. FG> I've built lots of radio facilities using this approach. The primary FG> drawback is cost -- a single pair of units to allow such a hookup typically FG> runs around $500 US. One manufacturer that I've had good success with is FG> Raritan [http://www.raritan.com/]. There are others as well. FG> Cheers!
