MarkPAman Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 OK. I assume the eq on the desk is not giving you what you want, so you are using the graphics to boost the bass. There are several ways you could go here:Use an insert lead to insert the graphics into two channels of the desk, use these two channels for the Denon. The Mic in a third channel will not be affected by the graphic.If you want more things to go through the graphics, then insert them on a pair of sub groups. Then send anything that needs the graphics through those groups & anything that doesn't to the other groups or L+R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubiejeff Posted March 22, 2006 Author Share Posted March 22, 2006 Thankz I got your idea.. In a hall, under what circumstance will the sound echoish? music too loud? bcoze I use long throws? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mal421 Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 There are many factors that can effect sound . Large flat surfaces ( e.g. walls ) can cause echo . Sometimes it may only be certain frequencies that are causing the problems and the fact that you are boosting the bass with the graphic could be causing problems . Playing too loud can cause problems along with speaker positioning with lots of reflected signals all reaching the ears at different times . I would try experimenting with levels and speaker position also remember that as the room fills up the sound will change as bodies start to absorb some of the energy . An RTA ( Real Time Analyser ) may help as well . Good luck . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
