Hello and thanks for the video. I wanted to ask you if possible. If we have a main LR, however, we also have the subs on out 3 and 4, for example, can we use the auto eq? does it work simultaneously on the entire system?
Thanks. Just got a 360, and had your video playing on one laptop, side by side with my laptop running the 360 software, as I was setting it up. Have a good one, and I just sub'd. Carl
Well done! Let me know how it works after your first event is finished. Also if you have a iPad, the app makes it very easy to move around the room and make adjustments.
@@audiobuff On the Auto Feedback System, if you are using all of the same Mics, do you need to AFS, on more than one Mic, or does it also have to do with position on stage?? Thanks, Carl. P.S. hooked it up to my android tablet, and it works great.
When using the AFS, I use 10 fixed and 2 live filters. I give priority to the most important mics. In my application, the lapel/preaching mic gets 4-5 filters, and then I give the pulpit mic 4-5 as well. Most churches I work with have choirs, so I will put 2-3 filters on them. If its a vocal/instrument mic (close mic) I don't worry abut them. To answer your question, if its the same mic, using the filters on one of them is sufficient. If the speakers are correct for the application, the tuning of the system is correct, you will not need an extensive amount of filters. @@CarlsOpinion
So helpful... I just got a venue... On my mixer my master fader shows a signal of zero... when it goes to the Dbx, I have to add a lot of gain from my output of my mixer... is there some kind of input pad or calibrator on the Dbx input ? My mixer is a motu b16 stagebox
Seems like they’ve come a long way in twenty years. It used to be pink noise so much that bars would kick you out of the venue trying to make it work. It was unusable. Also, in a regular venue, is background noise a problem since in your quiet shop a simple fan was too much for the venue 360?
Thanks very much for the review! One question! Could this unit be used for speakers development? If I built a monitor with three inputs, one for each way (sub, mid, tweeter), could the Venu 360 be used as the only crossover unit, automatically managing both frequency and phase shift issues allowing to achieve a "reference" flat and detailed response at the listening position? I'm asking this for the following reason: since someone would have to use some kind of software (e.g. Sonarworks) anyway, in order to fine tune the monitoring system in a given listening enviroment, why not to use a single unit to take care of everything, at the single driver level? Thanks in advance.
No, you're looking for an active crossover, and even then you'll still need to run all the calculations regarding the geometry of the box, baffle, and placement/mounting of the transducers. I'd start with a C-note kit build or something along those lines first while you study the books on loudspeaker design and engineering.
Hi, #1. Thank you for the Video & Clarity 👏👏 Question though, it looks like you also have EQ’d the two channels as well using the PA knobs (Low/MidHigh.”, etc.). Would you normally leave those “Flat” in the initial set up, & then “Tune” to the instrument ie. Vocal, Guitar, Sax, etc.?
Good question. When applying the first tuning to the speakers in the room, YES, I leave it flat. Pink noise and sine sweeps are used for the tuning of the speakers (which come from the 360). When applying the filters to pull out the feed back, I first try to get the best sound using the mixing consoles channel EQ. Then I use the audio feedback eliminator to give me more gain before feedback. Thank you for watching - more to come…
If I understand your question, when using the AFS, you place the microphones where they will be used durning the event. It is very important to “notch out the feedback” (AFS) while trying to duplicate the location and environment the mics will be used in. Side note, if at all possible, you never want any microphones in front of the house speakers. That will drastically cut into your gain before feedback (volume) levels.
Good question! I try to keep it simple for the customer and most of the time I will store the settings over preset #1 for that reason. On my rental units, I store the presets over empty locations. Thank you for watching the video-more to come!
@@audiobuff Hello, can you explain this a little more? I’m a little confused? I thought the main mixer outputs went into the DBX left and right for a stereo sound? Is this correct? Or what do you mean by “insert jacks”? Thanks.
Can’t thank you enough for these video
Thank you for watching. Just dropped another video today…
Great video for me who just bought a Venu 360! Thank you very much!
Enjoy! Let me know what you think of it after you get it into service? What the style of sound you will be using it in?

We should put the Mic front of loudspeakers when we set AFS?

@@audiobuff very useful and good explanation. Thank you so much!
When you stored your custom tuning, why not store it somewhere else, so that you still have the original preset?

Hey bro can u do a video for four stage sounds...... horn.....high mids ......low mids.....and bass ......on stereo fullrange main
Add me on what's app 5926296901 I need some advise on tuning my driverack 360
I will see what I can do. I have a full schedule of videos for this summer and fall. Thank you for the idea!
Awesome video man. I just got my unit a week ago. lol
how is your 360 treating you after 5 months?
Audio Buff It’s working great, I love this unit does everything you want to do and more
Glad you did!
Thank you for a great video tutorial. I have a question. When using a mixing board like you. Do you go from the mixer then into the DBX Driverack?
Yes. You can “insert it” on the insert jacks on the main outputs, but I never do that. The signal flow is mixing console, driverack, amp, speakers.
Audio Buff Thank you for the advice. Do you have a video on gain structure?
Not yet, sorry.
@@audiobuff Hello, can you explain this a little more? I’m a little confused? I thought the main mixer outputs went into the DBX left and right for a stereo sound? Is this correct? Or what do you mean by “insert jacks”? Thanks.
i like your tutor
Thank you for watching, more videos to come…
What iPad are you using?
I use the iPad pro. Have been very happy with it!
Audio Buff hi, good because that’s what I just purchased and I wasn’t sure if it was going to work with this the app. Thanks for the reply
Pls after using the stereo setup i can still hear my drum kick in the sub
I tried setting the crossover and even cutting more lows but can still hear a little of the kick in the mid speaker
Is it that my crossover and eq settings is not done well
Please send me link App Store I can’t find please
Is it possible to use this with a powered mixer?
