DR300 Eq + Ultradrive Settings

EQ guys are using on their cabs/systems. A good starting place if you don't have your own RTA.

DR300 Eq + Ultradrive Settings

#1 Post by tommysb »

Finally got my whole system up and running this weekend......Some pics will be posted up in the review section soon. (except for of the EQ I used here).

I was running DR300s loaded with magnum 12 (now 4012HO), crossed at about 1.5kHz to a pair of eminence PSD2002, bi amped.


I the HF section was inverted with relation to the mid, and delayed by about 3ms. A parametric EQ was used to give a relatively broad boost centred around 8kHz, and (from memory), another boost was applied at about 250Hz (on the Behringer ultracurve).

A relatively flat response(perfectly adequate) could be achieved with just the parametrics on the ultradrive.

I Didn't properly tweak the settings, but this should get you started. The EQ used besides the ultradrive parametric was like so:

Overall, sounded good for dance music. I believe the sub/top crossover was around 80Hz.

Tommy, are you still around? I'm curious to hear any comments you have regarding how your DR300's have held up.

Hi Zack,

I'm back now. The DR300s are nothing short of excellent, in my opinion!
