I thought he got some kind of really cool fireplace thingy.


Excuse me whilst I butt out.

Very Nice!! I have a Firepod 10 channel interface for years. I loved it but downsized. I sold it for $300. Very good wind fall!

awesome!

Hey, that's very cool. Rich! Are you working with it yet?

well, not tons since setting it up the other night.
Only reason is that this room I'm working on is in the basement, unheated..barely insulated and I live in Maine.

So, my time down there at present is sadly limited..
But maybe when I get some cashola floating around this place, I can get my last wall done, and install a door.

Any ideas how one could provide some heat to a room in the basement in a house that has old-fashioned cast iron radiator heating..?

I guess some kinda space heater is my only real choice..
Anyone know which one of those would be a better choice for a sort of long-term space heating solution?
Room is roughly 12x10

For a room that small, you could use the DeLongi oil-filled radiator It takes a looooooong time to warm it up, but it styas warm & uses little electricity, once you have it there.

I'd just use a lil ceramic cube heater for a space that small, myself, if I wasn't in the room all the time.

Yes to the oil filled radiator.
I had a building down town that was well insulated by the surrounding structures while I was still teaching.

The radiant ( oil ) heaters worked so well just left on all winter I rarely had to turn on the central.

ok lads thanks.
it should be an easy test, as we have one.
all i need to do is get that last wall done, put a door in, tape & mud then we can see how she holds heat.

thanks again,

Your aware of course a lot of the rooms radiant temperature is from your floor.

In the above mentioned gung fu school, most of the flooring was completely covered in matting, that reduced the cooling effect of the concrete to practically nill.

Carpeting is often not enough due to porosity and permeability.


Just sayin

Nice! What DAW will you be using it with? I use Nuendo and various flavors of Cubase meself.
