      mckevrock boss I need help with this, how can I speak with you, on Facebook Or whattsapp or text? I did exactly what you said and after it was done I did as you did pressed the in/out button to stop the pink noise and then pressed the eq to see the correction but then it said to repress the in/out button to hear the eq???? I did that and there’s like weird noises when playing a session just a solo instrument like a bass or a kik there’s like a delayed filter noise like sound can’t explain but once I hit the in/out button it stops but so does the eq? I don’t know what to do now

    • @mckevrock
      @mckevrock  4 роки тому +1

      @@muzikstore7984 Double check your menu settings before running the correction. Also, after analyzing is over, check to see if any of your bands are maxed out. If so, you might get some distortion or noise because the unit is trying to over compensate for a poor room. My unit does this a little bit too because of the settings you see I ended up with. Remember it's not a high-end unit, it's a Behringer, so you might get a little noise, but just focus on your overall mix and not noise. Hope this helps!

However, I read on some forum that the DSP version 9024 can be used, and to my surprise the name of the firmware itself is 8024, has anyone done this update recently? of the current firmware on the behringer of the 9024 on the 8024?

    1) Is there a fine audible variation in sound quality simply adding the device in the sound system (flat curve)? In other words, does it add some kind of character?
    2) Where to place the microphone during the meausurements?
    Many thanks.

      2) Place the microphone where your head would be during normal listening.

      @edwardjski 6 місяців тому +1

      It's been 4 months since you asked but I thought I'd answer anyways.
      Besides the auto EQ function, it's also a graphic EQ. You could document the EQ settings you want to copy or transfer and manually enter those settings in your target device.

    • @mckevrock
      @mckevrock  3 роки тому

      No, not for this calibration. The signal is generated by the Behringer. The microphone is listening to the signal coming from itself! Of course, eventually you'll be plugging your mixer in, but that's not needed for this step. Thanks for asking!

      You're going to put this between the output of your PreSonus and your powered monitors, the microphone plugs directly into the back of the behringer. Your mic preamp, compressor, mixer won't be involved in this.
