So cool and well done!! Way to adapt and overcome when faced with the pandemic. I am sure a lot of people had the same idea, but none of them executed like you did! Rock on brother
A brilliant effort man. I love your studio.. I’m currently in the process of a major upgrade of my garage studio, mainly live streaming in short form, filmmaking into motorcycles tattoos, rock ‘n’ roll blues.. I’d love to have you on the show as a special guest when I get back up and running again. cheers mate 👍🏻
Hello Derek! I was brainstorming this entire concept for putting my recording studio in a shed, then I came across you video!!! Awesome stuff man. I'd like to gather your input on your experiences and work-arounds for possible issues. I'm currently preparing to frame out my vocal booth and get started on the rest. I'd like to chat offline sometime to gain some knowledge from you. Impressive work, really!!!
As a fellow connoisseur of Batuu/Galaxy's Edge, I appreciate all those items around. Thermal detonator soda bottles. Those tie fighters are the popcorn buckets, right?
@@TheDerekFrank Thank you for your speedy response. I’m in California. I had a contractor come by; he told me the engineer and pulling permits will cost me $7500 and if I give him the job he’ll give me 50% off that cost back. The total project : Electricity hook up with no plumbing will cost approx. $50,000 dollars. The area is 10x20 feet. Do you think it’s excessive? Thanks.
That sounds really excessive. Since mine is a non-permanent structure technically, it has a lot less permits and laws surrounding it. Might be worth checking with your local government on what permits are required and then tell the contractor or get another opinion
Awesome studio shed! I'm in California and building a 10'12 because I dont have to pull permit. 1rst question is railroad tie foundation or slab? Second question. How high of a roof? It will be a Toughshed room inside a room. Barn style..it think.. Green glue..etc I'm a drummer btw..buying a nice Roland e kit and still want to play acoustic kit.
@@TheDerekFrank in time. Still looking to get a house. How is your studio holding up for example a full band practice? I dont want neighbors calling the cops on me 🤣
Great video! I'm hoping to do something similar in my yard. Just curious, what are the dimensions of the shed, and now that you have it up and running, if you were starting from scratch, what would you do differently (besides the roof)?
Thanks for watching! It is 12x24. Besides the roof, I would have used a mini split unit for heat and air instead of a big portable unit. While mine works fine, it is loud and takes up a lot of space and isn't very efficient.
Hi! I found you through Andrew Masters' channel. May I inquire about your guitar hanging mechanism? It looks like they're coming out at a 45 degree angle or thereabouts which is letting you put more guitars in a smaller space. I have typical wall hangers that has the guitars lying parallel to the wall, and I find I need more space. Of course, another approach to my dilemma is to recognize that I have too many guitars. But is it truly possible to have too many guitars?
Great question!! It is not the most ideal placement for mixing, but having panels on the wall and behind the monitors helps a lot. The best place for the desk would actually be along one of the 12' walls, but it eats up so much space in the middle of the room doing that.
@@HOLLASOUNDS I would use rockwool insulation in the walls and dont use that cheap foam from Amazon on the walls. I have another video on how to make your own sound panels that are really effective and not very expensive
hey this looks great! Thanks for the inspiration, I am about to do something similar in my backyard and this gives me a lot of good ideas. Very well done!! Just one question: what size is your building? Thanks man!!
Just the shed with no flooring, drywall, or electric was around $4300. Its not very loud outside, but the metal roof was a bad idea haha. That is getting replaced
@@TheDerekFrank amazing thanks for the reply I’m checking out options now! I would love to connect more I have a few more questions. Are you on Instagram or Facebook ?
Do you think a studio shed would work for you?
What size was the shed?
@@WeAreBlessedCo it was 12x24.
you wearing makeup or is the minox causing your eyelashes to look thicker ?
@@CFox.7 no makeup, just natural dark eyelashes
@@TheDerekFrank the minox
Bruv, absolutely brilliant studio build. ...and the Star Wars decor.... Yo! Marvelous.
Thank you!!! Really appreciate it!
So cool and well done!! Way to adapt and overcome when faced with the pandemic. I am sure a lot of people had the same idea, but none of them executed like you did! Rock on brother
Thank you! It has been a labor of love, but it genuinely makes me happy every time I go in my studio to work.

I would love that! Just let me know when
Just scrolling threw and came across your video and noticed the blaum bro shirt that’s awesome I live an hr south of that distillery. Love the video
Thats awesome! I am originally from the Quad Cities
Nice job, impressive!! I like the touch screen control and thanks for sharing your journey from shed to functioning studio.
Thank you! Let me know if there are any other videos you want me to do
love, love your studio man!! it's so unique cuz of the fact that you built some of its elements yourself
Thank you so much! It was a lot of work, but so rewarding.
Very relatable, did a similar build throughout 2020 and this year, finished up about 2 months ago. Wish I would've kept the footage of the process.
Also I just realized I watched your studio tour off Andrew Masters channel
@@yochillsmith thanks for migrating over. Would love to see your studio!

Thanks for the kind words. Feel free to hit me up on Instagram @thederekfrank
great video bro , i liked and subbed u boss , i have to ask what is the big touch screen u have in your setup i need one ...
Thank you so much! Check out the new touchscreen video I put up. Its REALLY cool
You did great I taught you everything you know about construction and you still did a great job love to get together and build one with you
Lets just build a full functioning studio!
As a fellow connoisseur of Batuu/Galaxy's Edge, I appreciate all those items around. Thermal detonator soda bottles. Those tie fighters are the popcorn buckets, right?
Thank you for noticing! All Star Wars themed
Very cool, awesome job!
Thanks!
Awesome video!
Thanks! Hope it helps in your journey!!
Thanks. I’ve searched for basic instructions on building a Backyard studio, yours is the best. Did you need permits for your city?
Thank you! I did get a permit but it was under $100. Every city and state is different, so always check before building anything.

Its 12x24

Mine is on runners, so basically railroad ties, no slab. The roof is around 11ft. I am really happy with it!
I want something like this!!!
Do it!!

@@12Jsilva Living in Nashville, people dont give me too many problems with loud music 😉
Would love a walk through on how you built the desk. Parts list or diagram? Thanks. Great stuff.
Glad you asked! I just posted that video on Monday!! I am also happy to send you the full diagrams
@@TheDerekFrank I would also love to build this one... Diagrams would be great! if possible,
Looks awesome
Thank you!
Nice Studio. Can you tell me what is the brand and model of your portable TV stand?
Thanks! It is custom made. I have a video on the updated version on my channel.
I love your studio!
I love your face!

Please how you made this touch-screen??? Made a vídeo for us. Nice space you have!!!
Video coming VERY soon. Make sure to subscribe and hit to bell icon so you know when it comes out.
Video on how I made my screen is up now!
Nice!!!! I’m going to build a desk of the magnitude
Awesome! Desk build video will be coming soon

They are the Hercules GSP40SB. They are slat wall hangers and can be placed in several positions
@@TheDerekFrank Thanks for the info!
No problem! They are great for keeping up with the guitar purchasing addiction!!
Nice. Question, how is the back wall behind you reacting to your mixes? I thought a position like that was not good? Idk
Great question!! It is not the most ideal placement for mixing, but having panels on the wall and behind the monitors helps a lot. The best place for the desk would actually be along one of the 12' walls, but it eats up so much space in the middle of the room doing that.
What's your advice for building a sound proof booth?
Depends on what you are using it for and how big you want it
@@TheDerekFrank Singing and loud talking, big enough to sit in.
@@HOLLASOUNDS I would use rockwool insulation in the walls and dont use that cheap foam from Amazon on the walls. I have another video on how to make your own sound panels that are really effective and not very expensive
@@TheDerekFrank Whats the difference between Rock wall and the fibreglass wall? The look and feel the same but one is pink and the other Yellow?
@@HOLLASOUNDS rockwool is much more dense and is better for soundproofing where as regular insulation doesnt do well for sound.
Nice work so far! How many sq ft is the space?
Thanks! It's 288sq ft
hey this looks great! Thanks for the inspiration, I am about to do something similar in my backyard and this gives me a lot of good ideas. Very well done!! Just one question: what size is your building? Thanks man!!
Thanks for watching. It is 12x24
This will help ☺️
👍
How much exactly was the shed? Also do the neighbors complain? Is it loud outside lol ?
Just the shed with no flooring, drywall, or electric was around $4300. Its not very loud outside, but the metal roof was a bad idea haha. That is getting replaced
@@TheDerekFrank amazing thanks for the reply I’m checking out options now! I would love to connect more I have a few more questions. Are you on Instagram or Facebook ?
@@KellBailey of course! Just search Thederekfrank on all platforms
How did you connect main power to the shed?
I trenched a line 18" deep and connected it to the main panel of my house with 220.
Me and friend decided to make a studio like 20 min ago
Good luck!
What touch screen monitor do you use?
Here's my video about my touchscreen ua-cam.com/video/jYxk4IMAIJU/v-deo.html
Is that a Sterling 77 mic you are using?
No, that is the Presonus Revelator
How much was the shed?
The shed itself was around $4500 but with everything I did to it, around $7500
Why didn't you insulate before drywalling?
I wanted to do blow in cellulose insulation because it is tighter packed and better for sound proofing
what size is the shed
12 ft x 24 ft
What are the dimensions?
12ft by 24ft
Thank you🙏🏾
@@chi-beze you are very welcome!
nice vid man. can you come help me build one? :)
I would love to!! Better check with your HOA or else its going in the house 😂
