If you are using the avb you don't need extra clock cabling, as clock is carried on the cat5. You just need to set what you are using as master. Now how this sounds, or with WC I am not sure.

I just started mixing an album for a newish client, I did a live concert recording 2 years ago, and sent off a preliminary rough of the first track. She responded that "it was Magic" and that she actually enjoyed listening to herself sing.
Got me thinking... best compliment you have received from an artist?

Looks much better with that angled headbasket.

Placed my order for my 16a. Finally stopped the small GAS attack long enough to save up for it. Excited to use it in person after hearing everything done with one.

Simple answer is a tape measure and calculation of the reflection path. This is done one speaker at a time. If you look at the delay time you can then find the distance traveled, sound travels @ 1130ft/s at 74 degrees. I usually take the direct path measurement and subtract it from the reflection path measurement then measure for objects that reside at that distance from the mic. The example is pretty nice and clear, in smaller rooms it gets harder as the initial delay gap is smaller. But this delay gap is very important to be larger then the space you record in, or you will never hear the acoustic coloration of the recording space. Hope that helps. Thanks for your reply Patrick. Sorry if I'm being obtuse, but by" delay gap" are you talking about the difference between the "Arrival of Direct Sound" and the "Early Decay" as shown on the IR posted? no problem... its what they call the reverb build up area. The longer and lower that area is the better. you also want the early delay to be very steep or non existent.

You can also use the impulse response calculation to find trouble some reflection points. Look at the time gap from impulse to the first reflection this needs to be significantly lower in volume with a nice time delay. Good stuff mulmany. I've never understood how you find troublesome reflection points based on an IR. Below is a sample of one. From the example, how would you discover where in the room the reflection point(s) are that are letting this "Discrete Reflection" be so prominent so that you could fix it? Thanks if you can provide some insight! Simple answer is a tape measure and calculation of the reflection path. This is done one speaker at a time.

I have a hard time saving up for big purchases, cause a bunch of small GAS always gets in the way.

Look at vanguard cases on amazon. They have lots of different sizes, you may have to go the their website and get the exact model # then go back to Amazon.

Ok, so I am sold with the new design! Love it, not that my opinion really matters!
Great job on the freq selection for the LC25. Looks like a nice quick and perfect bass and drum eq.

I was wondering if they were going to do that. Thought it would be a good idea.
I started looking at my upgrade options for PT and saw that the price was the same if I switched DAWs.

svart, not to bug you... did you happen to see if you had anything on these? Thanks I looked but didn't have any notes. I can't remember which model i had, but the general mods were caps and opamps. Decoupling was a big priority on these, and is where they cheapen out. Thanks.

I have been using a dbx 903 pulling 10-15db and 1073 esq saturation in parallel to the original track, eq if needed. The original I eq and compress normally then set it to a good level, but a little bit lower than ideal. I then bring the parallel up under it. Mix to taste for different sections of a song.

Just find a nice pair of SDCs and a stereo bar! Sooooo much better than any one trick pony This is what I was going to say.

not sure what to say... I liked the old aesthetic. But I also like the new clean look. Maybe originals will be worth more one day!
I do see two new EQ designs, care to share?
Congrats Jeff!
(I assume that it has been prompted by a certain legal issue)

Thx no but I'll check the room nodes. I always find my lower freq hard to discern so problems below 400 or so are consistent with my experience . Solution is more mid band and bass traps or howdo I attempt to remedy the 4 specific frequencies? Well good thing about them is they all are going to be affected by the super chunk. The mode Calc will give you some insight on front, back, sides, or ceiling placement. Your room is holding onto that 125-150hz content at 20 db more then the surrounding freq.

You deffinately have a few problem spots. Have you run your room dimensions through bob golds room mode calculator? It would be interesting if the peeks and valleys line up with the mode calculations.
I would only be concerned with the dip at 70hz, build up at 125hz and 350hz, and the dip around 400hz. The hi frequency looks consistent with the stimulus.
You can also use the impulse response calculation to find trouble some reflection points. Look at the time gap from impulse to the first reflection this needs to be significantly lower in volume with a nice time delay.
You can order the calibrated usb mic from miniDSP. Makes a big difference in the quality of the data.

Room EQ correction is a balancing act. The ARC software was originally designed for movie theaters, as a tool to speed up system optimization/EQ. It is an averaging algorithm that tries to EQ all points as close to the primary location as possible. Its a difficult task in the best of circumstances, and really should only be used when traditional means have been exhausted.

I would say that your master buss Da/ad and your monitor DA should be atleast equal quality wise. If it's not, the preference should go to monitors.
What good is a high quality Master DA/AD if you can't hear the changes on the monitors?

Your plot looks alot like mine in the low end. I need to do a complete redesign, but have not had the time or capital to do so.
The front wall absorption is very important with non flush mount speakers.

Can that do a waterfall plot?
Another option would be trying to move some more panels to the front wall.

What's the web address to this CC&E website? I second this. The link posted is a completely different product, by Martin, not by CC&E. Any Google search comes up with voltage regs. Man I totally kept missing that in the first post on page 2... I was going to Matt ' s posts.
