I know my board is quite forgiving, however I usually try to keep all the channels in the green, maybe the yellow at peak moments. As far as the board is concerned again I try to keep everything at unity gain, no clipping or in the red so to speak. Of course the speakers are not connected so I have no fear of damage. I run pink noise through the board to the point of clipping, and then I set the amps to thier clipping point and then turn both down, and that is where I run the amps. This will usually result in a mix I like much better than the auto EQ built.Īgedhorse - If you can best describe gain structure and I'll compare with what I do. Anything more than 6dB is probably a room mode that can't really be 'fixed' with EQ, so I usually reduce those changes to 3dB or less. If anything, I'll run it (it won't "finish" in most rooms.I shut it off after 1 minute tops) and look at the graph it produces, and then knock the tops off the huge changes. In most rooms I find its recommendations to be way off at the high and low extremes. If you're using the auto EQ (pink noise, etc), I'll wager that's where the wheels are coming off.

Hard to explain because sound is so subjective.It sounds like though that the DRPA should be able to do everything I need. Thanks.I am using the DR correctly too with the JBL and Crown amp settings and setting everything at unity gain and at the same clip point, nothing is over driven.Ĭraigv, that's good idea.As far as the settings go, I am using the settings for the crown amps and the jbl speakers, I use the wizard to set them up, and then some time I will use the PAA2 while running pink noise though the board to set the EQ.I make sure the settings on the board are flat when using the pink noise.maybe it's just that I am not pushing the highs enough around 2-8K range.like I said it sounds very good, just notice that some other systems that use either the ashly or an analog XO sound a little better. The response I am getting locally is that the DR is the weak link in the system and that most pros don't like them.Just looking for some input. Which might work better? Or would I not notice any difference. Would I be happier with the overall sound going back to an analog XO and EQ? Another option would be to go to an Ashly Protea 3.24. I also use a Medusa Whirlwind snake so the chain I think is pretty good stuff. I use a Phonic PAA2 to monitor the frequencies and everything is in line. My question is that the sound after I go through my DR and then Crown XTi amps 2000's on the mains, and 4000's on subs, and then JBL MRX speakers - 525's and 528's doesn't have the same crispness and clarity. I have a Midas Venice 320 that I use and the sound coming out of it is incredible based on what I am hearing while using my Sony headphones.
