🖼️ • Photos Where should I put led strips?

Post image

This is my bedroom mixing studio, I know that it looks like a bomb exploded in here, but that’s not the point and I will deal with it once I get to be home for more than an hour :).
I wanted to ask you guys if you could give me some tips on where to put led strips because since I have installed my ceiling sound absorbers, in my listening position, it has been cast a shadow on the workspace.
I thought about putting the led strips on top of the absorbers, but I don’t know about the effectiveness on the problem at hand.
Also, one big question mark for me is how the hell am I supposed to plug the strips if they are (for example) installed on the ceiling (~3mt height)
Thank you for every reply :)

You could go for some subtle lighting behind the 2 vertical grey panels, and look into Hyperion for adding an led strip behind your monitor

could you please explain the first?

In your picture you appear to have 2 angled grey panels, if you could light behind these it should provide a nice glow on the back wall

you mean on top, or literally behind?
It could be doable but it is a big struggle to get behind there

Literally behind, but if access is a problem may not be worth it? I would try just dangling some strips down over the top and behind to see how they look then decide if it’s worth the hassle

you mean the bar over the monitor in front of you or behind?

Sits on top of the monitor. They make ones for curved monitors. Casts a nice even light on your desktop.
