the high frequency on the presonus is about 4 leds up above center, Sam your right I'll drop this back to center Having forced myself to dig out a photo of this desk, and reminded myself of its idiosyncratic interface, it looks like you've potentially got an 8dB boost at 5kHz - with a KMS105 - defi...

For me, you'd be plain bonkers to make this change. For a bunch of unskilled users, losing the tactile faders on the SQ6 will be far more of a hindrance than the benefit of any of the CQ's funky features. Like any user fancying the joys of automated feedback elimination, you're likely to be wholly d...

Hi I have just recently moved over to the digital world, bought the presonus 16:4:2 desk and still in process learning a complete novice to this desk That's a shame, after all the good advice here, you went and bought that 15 year old model... I'm using it live at the moment and honestly getting a ...

In summary, buy a new speaker and buy the right one.

You've hopefully learnt the hard lesson that the wrong product at a (hopefully) bargain price is still the wrong product.

If there's noticable added delay on the second speaker, then stereo music is likely to sound like one huge mess. And, contrary, given that you can link the speakers as a stereo pair, I'd fully expect that stereo pair to be available from all inputs, not just one of them. All futile discussion, other...

Firstly, a more meaningful thread title would help... For the venues you've listed, there's none where a 20m mains extension wouldn't facilitate power. With mains, everything becomes so much simpler, and you won't ever have that blind panic of turning up to find that your battery is empty, or runnin...

Agreed, the manual is rather ambiguous, but I read it the other way. If you can have primary and secondary outputs to each speaker when linked as zones, it appears entirely reasonable to have them fed to both speakers when linked as stereo. Also, from the manual: The following channels are available...

Never used these, but you got me intrigued enough to look at a couple of videos and read the manual. It looks like it should be able to do what you are looking for. My first thought was whether you had the mic input panned, but it doesn't look like there's a pan function on the mixer. Looks like you...

Indeed, I'm currently using D&B Y20P over B6- tiny twin 8" tops. These are more than ample in a 300 cap venue for just about anything you throw at them.

All at a price, mind...

I think the price has fallen with the transition too, M32 Live is £3099* which makes it pretty decent value Given that the X Live card is an additional £250 or so on the cost of an X32, the UK price differential between the X & M feels rather low now, depending on how much value you attribute t...

How much is your current system lacking for the bigger shows coming up? My fear is that both the Evolve 50 and the ELX200-SP might be inadequate. Your current system is quite reasonable for compact shows. A pair of DZR10s would be a worthwile upgrade from the DXR8s, and way below the price of the Ev...

[CQ20B] Currently lacks any mute or view groups using the native app, but I’m sure this will get sorted. No dca/vca or subgroups either but in a small band situation, that’s not really an issue. I'm less confident that these features will come in due course. While I'd be surprised if there was any ...

Do people still fix amps? I do hope so but if it's not a vintage valve or "classic" SS amp then my old fixers just tend to suggest (getting someone else to) replace the module. Replacing modules is what counts as fixing these days, sadly. I've got a mate, who's more than happy to work dow...

Yeah, it was the guy with the Helix and stereo 2kW FRFR cabs behind him (either that or he was the sound guy's boyfriend :oops: ). That's just the modern day version of the guitarist with the double Marshall stack behind them in a small venue. *Still* believing that they've got their "sound&qu...

I've played in a band with a guy using a Helix and currently with a guy using a small valve amp and a pedal board full of classic pedals, IMO they both produced a great sound, the big difference being, the Helix was ready to go in seconds, he didn't spend ages tap-dancing on the pedals trying to ge...

This: The fact is that the audience couldn't really give a monkey's what you play through as long as they can all sing along to Dakota at the ned of the evening. But for all those guitarists who can't get "their tone" without taking your face off - there is *always* a better way. I've been...

Plenty of local bands, incluing the one I play in using the old analog vocal PA & backline format - frequently without even wedges. Yes, I'd so rather go IEMs and no backline. It'd sound so much better, and be more comfortable to play/sing in. But old dogs are resistant to change, and there's no...

There are a gazillion Youtube clips that'll show/tell you a lot about the item. From those, you'll get a feel for whether it's "guided" interface will be great or drive you mad. WiFi performance is reported as "fine", and an order of magnitude better than that in the X-AIR mixers...

It's not uncommon to mistake a loose screw/bolt/anything on a speaker cabinet as a failed driver. I've done it before. Hard to find, but worth checking for anything that could be loose.
