disqo (sorry, couldn't resist) asked me about the possibility of providing links to resources and stuff which help inform some of the decisions i'm making with regards to the construction process, so i formed a new category.

here's some stuff to get started. if you're even thinking about doing any studio construction, the place to begin your journey is john sayers' site. a good chunk of the information you need is there, but studio construction has so many variables, so be prepared to spend a lot of time reading the forum with the understanding that every situation is different. john and a bunch of other guys who have been doing this kind of work forever are really generous with their time and advice.

if some of the stuff there throws you for a loop, you may want to check out the sae materials.

you can sometimes find snippets of wisdom at various sites which are dedicated to recording but not necessarily studio construction:
