Me showin u how to set ur inputs and outputs on ur driverack for people thats using serato Dj or any other software that doesnt have a headroom setting!
Just want to say great videos on the Driverack PA setup! I've been looking for information everywhere - your info is great! I want to make my powered system sound better. I used, I guess you would call it, a "basic" Driverack PA setup - but it doesn't seem loud enough or have enough bass. You seem to have alot of experience with certain details of the DriveRack PA that isn't known by most of the public. I'm currently using an NS7ii, DriveRack PA, an 8 channel mixer, an EV Live X Powered Tops and Powered Subs. Here are my questions: 1) How do you get the "pink noise test" on Serato DJ? 2) If you are running a powered system, do you run your LEFT and RIGHT inputs out of the NS7ii to 2 separate channels on your mixer? 3) Do you "re-eq" every venue with the RTA mic prior to your performance or do you just go with a pre-set eq setting that you have customized? I'm sure that I will have other questions later! =) Thanks in advance for your help! DJ Bobby White (aka DJ B-LUV) Bobby White Mobile DJ and Lighting Service
Bobby White Q1( I got the pink noise from my studio program and recorded into serato) Q2(I run my NS7 1 output into the inputs on the driverack,if your using a PA mixer you will then take your outputs from your NS7ii and run them(left and right) into a stereo channel(left and right) on your mixer) Q3(I usually dont use the RTA mic so much because I always DJ at the same venue unless otherwise in a different place I will be using it.....using the RTA to balance the tops and your lows is always a good thing if you want quality unless otherwise its not necessary in most cases.
Good stuff T-Dubbie Solo I do mines a lil different with the Volume on my Serato Dj my master volume is all the way down to 0 and my gains are @ 4 not 5 it give me a cleaner sound..The guy @ Serato told me the less Volume u have the more cleaner the sound and he was right.....keep up the good work..
Thanks bro and ur rite...the lower the settings the cleaner the sound and especially when u have a high-end sound system such as ur RCF that u got which I know its very expensive to use and Im very such that it sounds crispy and clean as well when using less volume for more headroom!
so I using virtual dj does that mean I turn the master volume in virtual dj to half way and then on my mc6000 controller I turn that master up ? I have the newest model drive rack the dbx drive rack pa2 I trying to figure out
I dont have a Alto 115s top speakers but what I can tell you is start the volume from each top speaker to the middle and see how your speakers performs...if you need more volume just increase both of them until clipping...back it down alittle from clipping until light is green again and then if you have a driverack or any equipment with a built in limiter...use this to eliminate clipping...I also have a video of how to eliminate clipping
