"The Little Corner Studio" is such a great name for it! It's actually quite enchanting. The setup seems to be working for you and I think that's all that matters in the end.
I wasn't able to view the one from candys, my virus protection software, malwarebytes, blocked it due to a trojan?? Maybe a false positive?
Dave, came through OK here. This is the image:

Fun thread. Here is my setup. I like to do basic sketches on the end of my dining table Laptop + portable touch screen which connects via single cable to laptop and gives me a luxury of having DAW on one screen and synths+FX or lyrics on the other...and a trusty Blue mic. When sketch is done I take my laptop and move to the basement "guest room" where I have my master mic and speakers set up. One of the issues that I solved for myself in the past couple of years is the wonderful cart table you see... It is a SIT/STAND table and lifts up very easy. So I can sit when I am mixing and then lift it up, so I can monitor and adjust things while singing...Because you can not sing seated.. well you can, but it is not preferred My son's digital piano, that sometimes I would borrow and couple of guitars.
Awesome looking setup Misha! It's great to be able to visualize you working in that space! The pics being posted by everyone will probably help a few songwriter/composers make practical decisions how to go about putting their own studio together. Thanks for the post! T
I always had that interior problems until I merged 2 rooms in one so now I can think about total renovation and integration of my music system. In that way, the only thing I've been thinking during my renovation process - is how to sharpen my powerful maul and of course I found some tips (like these: https://cozyhousetoday.com/how-to-sharpen-splitting-maul/), to make the process of renovation quick and easy.
Those are some excellent rooms. Mine is smallish & I can't get a decent shot of it. Here is a composite of eye level with the middle shelves being the baffle behind the listening position (about 2.5m back from the mixing desk...

Well, that was/is entirely hopeless. I'll try a four corner approach... I've covered all external light as the room and camera don't cope with natural sunlight for happy snap. It's a little crowded - the book shelves created baffles to break up/disrupt standing waves and the CDs, usually are staggered part in and out to do tha same. This generally works though I'm still experimenting regarding bass build up (rolled memory foam in one direction and a rolled carpet in another).

Crizz88, Ray, Do your neighbors like you....with all those amps....? Lots of cool stuff! Do you play that upright or it's someone's else? M.
Misha, I make sure I don't use the Marshall until I've rehearsed enough to minimize the time needed. It gets loud enough for me to wear protective ear gear BUT I make sure that's when the nearest neighbour isn't home or I give them warning. It's not an upright bass - it's my cello! I play it in fits and starts but should get back to regular use - I stopped due to a frozen shoulder a few years back and haven't spent much time with it since - I have it out of its case to shame me in to getting my act together.

Band-in-a-Box 2026 Video: AI Stems & Notes - split polyphonic audio into instruments and transcribe
This video demonstrates how to use the new AI-Notes feature together with the AI-Stems splitter, allowing you to select an audio file and have it separated into individual stems while transcribing each one to its own MIDI track. AI-Notes converts polyphonic audio—either full mixes or individual instruments—into MIDI that you can view in notation or play back instantly.
