6:45 Dave Rat asks: "What do you do with the sound from the back of the driver?" Use wall sink infinite baffle and play the same show to two venues at once! Each band member has a doppleganger, and one band mimes whilst the other really plays. Use cheaper ticket prices for the miming band in the room behind the subwoofers. You will need individual mids and highs cabinets in each room and might need to reverse the phase in the other room, so the crossover in the mids and highs lines up with the output from the back of the subwoofers. Unfortunately the subwoofers will be in the back wall of the stage which may not be optimum. If you use open back guitar cabinets installed in the wall, you can even share a backline! Reverse mount half of the speakers so that each side gets the same balance of sound - a more shrill sound from the front of the driver and a mellower sound from the back.
Hey Jae, maybe you already follow Dave's channel, but here it is for anyone who doesn't yet: th-cam.com/users/www73171 - He even does regular group zoom calls with members to talk about different topics and ideas in depth. Enjoy!
Why would you want to use anything else to merely project an industry conference talk? Clearly, you aren’t too familiar with actually hosting or coordinating/producing live events. Getting anything else is unnecessary for this task.
As usual, Dave has some questionable analogies and definitions - but he get's what's important. At the end of the day, subwoofer design is a balancing act of critical parameters and specifications, and they often aren't driven by what sounds the absolute best.

Dave is a legend. He’s amazing.
Dave Rat presents audio in a very enlightening manner. Demonstrations of concepts are terrific.
Thanks for the sweet analogy for the point source vs. horn-loaded drivers!! That made so many things click, Dave!

I desperately need that chair
Is there a link to watch the rest of the seminar?
I wasn’t able to record the whole talk but I’m digging around to see if anyone else has it & I’ll post a link if it’s out there.
@@DcSoundOp thanks
Mr rat is s legend
How ironic that Dave Rat uses high end gear. But, they are using Qsc speakers for this presentation. Lol!
The Audio Engineering Society & NAMM (The National Association of Music Manufacturers) are the ones who put this event on & hired production.... 😂

Imagine handing a mic to Dave Rat that is on the verge of feeding back with a nice 2k-4k ring.....smh
Homie mixing this session was on his phone for most of the talk, not exactly bringing their A-game for an AES conference 😂
