With standard front loaded subs, what you described will work. I'd be very cautious though, trying to limit with the board....too much chance for error. You'd have to start from a master scene every time to ensure that your limiter parameters carry forward. One little mistake and your folded horn su...

And when you want the cops to see that you are within the required 85db at the end of the property.

Welcome aboard. Ask all the questions that you want.....this board is very responsive as you've probably seen over the years.

Looks to me like you've got the right stuff....

I will 100% be doing a driver fit test, driving the RECEX screws in, before adding panels, forgot to mention that. Predrill the screw holes in the blocks first, before driving the screws in, okay? Got it. I've always used 3/4" brads - set to the deepest setting. 1" can go through two thic...

What he said? Hell, I'm still trying to figure out what he said.....

Design it so that you can stack 4 if the going is easy, but only stack two if there are steps and make two trips.

Absolutely......and it's actually much quicker. You can do 2-3 passes pretty quick and not burn up the router or the bit.

I used to summarily recommend LR crossovers (passive or active) because they are -6dB at the crossover frequency and "should" sum to zero at the crossover frequency... or so I thought at the time. Since that time, I learned about phase alignment and all that. In a situation where you have...

yep, I saw the 2nd order and 4th order in the plans, but what type of crossover is it? Or, is it your own brew?

A friend dropped off a dead Headrush speaker. Module is toast and the HF driver is blown. My plan is to turn it into a passive speaker and replace the HF with a spare I have laying around. Finding specs on what driver is in there is not gonn'a happen. So, I'm going with an ASD1000. I need to build a...

The standard for years has always been Steely Dan because it was all recorded so well. Although, probably not enough lows for the DJ stuff nowadays. I've always used the song Texas by Chris Rea.....it's not perfect, but I know the song and it starts out with lows then adds the kick. A little hissy o...

In that case, you'll get no extra inputs without an additional stage box. Acknowledged, my prerogative is not more inputs..its getting more familiarity with this x32 platform standard. If you're using a tablet, phone, or PC as your interface, it's essentially the same, nothing to familiarize yourse...

*Referring to X32 RACK

In that case, you'll get no extra inputs without an additional stage box.

The X32 is the gold standard in the segment for even larger shows in my area..and I do like the fact that it has a small screen attached to it. I'm able to sell my xr18 at almost the same price I bought it for ($500) .and think i can snag a used x32 in the $700 range... Are you considering an X32 o...
