Thanks for replying! How do you compare the overall sound with MA1 and without it? Are the speakers more accurate? I'm asking cuz i have the same setup ( kh120s + kh750 ) and was thinking to buy MA1 as well. Thanks
@@crea1337 The only way to judge the results is by ear and the MA1 measurement. The graphs will show you how the frequency curves looked before and after. In my case the difference was pretty significant so I was able to hear it.
@@chimerastate Hey, i have one more question. After the alignment is done did you you leave the kh750 on "network" or switched it back to local? I got the MA1 couple of days ago and tired it. Even before the alignment when i put the kh750 to "network" the bass level goes so low...I could definitely hear the difference on my kh120s after the alignment is done but the bass still stays so low. Thanks:)
Thanks for video. Are you floor decoupling the sub using the foam pad shown in the video? Did you notice any noticeable advantages? Also did u perceive any deep bass slight loss in favor of upper bass gain or the tonal characteristics remain the same? Thanks again Cheers
@@basickallysick Du hattest schon auf das richtige kommentiert. Da du von Neumann Control-App geschrieben hattest, dachte ich du kennst nur dieses Video: ua-cam.com/video/tSNkAGKpeOg/v-deo.html
Hi Chimera State Considering the manual of KH 310, where it says that your ears should be at the point between the tweeter and the midwoofer. Then the height of the microphone during the measurement should be this height or the direction of the tweeter which is higher than the listening point? Thanks
Hi Chimera State, thanks for doing this video-really helpful. I would have like to have seen you do a walkthrough of how you connected Kh 120’s to the KH750 sub using xlr connections etc and your audio interface too. Could you explain exactly how you did this please in order to use alignment software etc, as I am slightly confused?! Many thanks in advance
Thank you so much. Happy to help you. You need to connect your stereo monitors via XLR to the subwoofer and the subwoofer to your audio interface. I use the SPDIF connection of the subwoofer to connect it to the SPDIF connection on my audio interface.
@@chimerastate That’s great! Really appreciate you getting back to me. So that’s 1. XLR outs on KH750 sub to XLR input KH120? 2. Output audio interface (in my case the Apollo Twin) into input XLR KH750 sub or using digital connection as you mentioned. Is that correct? Thanks once again
Awesome video! I have a question: Can you bypass the sub via the neuman app while mixing? Is there any way to bypass the sub while it's on network mode?
🙏🏻 for supporting this channel. Yes, you can bypass the sub using the Neumann App. Did you check out the MA1 alignment video: ua-cam.com/video/S7ykKuflorI/v-deo.html
Danke für das review. Frage: bei den KH 120 A funktioniert das nur in Verbindung mit dem Sub, richtig? Bin ein Fan von Raumeinmessung. Mache ich momentan nur mit einem AV Receiver und 5.1, aber da sind die Ergebnisse auch eindrucksvoll. Bekommt man mit akustischem Raum-Treatment kaum hin - und dieses Raum-Treatment ist auch sehr viel aufwendiger.
Hello, I use a pair of kh310 connected to 750 to calibrate. After calibration, I save the parameters and then close the software. After unplugging the network cable, is the calibration parameter written into the subwoofer dsp? I don’t need to connect the network cable every time I use it. Expect to you to answer me , thank you so much.
Hello there, I have returned to this video as it is very helpful👍🏾. I already have the KH80’s and would really like to get the kh750 sub. However, I also have the MA1, but are you able to turn off/bypass sub without the software? Or once set up is the sub always on? Thanks in advance:-).
@@chimerastate thanks again for your response. I was just researching this and it appears that it might in fact overwrite the MA1 settings, which is a shame, as that would have been the perfect solution! I believe Neumann are working on this so that this will not be the case going forward, but for now it is unfortunately and so I eagerly await this update.
Thanks for this. iPhone does great recordings, but does analyze music and push it back, the thing I’m noticing is lack in mids… Can you (if you do this again,) choose a variety of genres, EDM has emphasis on lows and highs. Thank you!
Hallo! Danke für das Video! Kannst du mir zwei Fragen beantworten? Kann man den Sub nach dem Einmessvorgang, also im normalen Studiobetrieb, mit der Software ein- und ausschalten und solo abhören? Falls ja, laufen die KH 120 dann wieder linear? Und ich habe nicht verstanden, was der Unterschied zwischen Neumann Control App und Automatic Monitor Aligment ist. Grüße Armin
Leider kann man mit der Software nur einmessen, aber nicht die Monitore steuern. Das wiederum macht die Neumann Control App, die aber wiederum die Einstellungen des MA1 Alignment überschreibt. Ich denke zukünftig wird es hier Updates geben, um das Zusammenspiel zu verbessern.
@@chimerastate Zu dem obigen Kommentar bezüglich der Nutzung von der App und dem MA1 Alignment. Kann man nun beides nutzen oder werden die Einstellungen des MA 1 bei Nutzung der App wieder überschrieben?
Doesn't seem like you placed your iPhone in the Sweetspot for the non-MA1 recording, though, so of course the MA1 samples will sound clearer. Thanks for the effort of making the video, however.
Vielleicht blöde Frage aber muss das Mikro nur einmal verwendet werden und dann ist der Raum „für immer“ eingemessen? Dann könnte man es sich ja auch ausleihen oder?
any idea why the allignment software sees my subwoofer as Left Subwoofer? I have the same setup: from the interface i go into my monitor controller, from my monitor controller to the sub, then from the sub into my kh120a
@@raresionela2 No, there is no switch. I don't remember that particular step. I know it showed me to place the subwoofer on the left or right of my main monitor speakers.
@@chimerastate well, I emailed Neumann asking about this. The thing is, the sub does not even play the frequency sweep while calibrating. But outside their software, it works, I can hear it. The calibration is not working which is weird!
Such a great channel. Many thanks from future Neumann customer. I have K+H 300 for many years, superb sound.
Thank you very much for your support.
Well done, you don't usually see this much quality in a low count subscribers channel!
Thank you so much for your support.
This video is perfect. Thank you so much
Can you turn the MA1 alignment On and Off while your mixing? So you could hear how it sounds without any alignment at all
Thanks:)
No, that does not work. The settings will be saved on your subwoofer and there is no option to turn it off and on.

Yes, I use the pad to decouple the sub from the floor. The overall tonal balance sounds very balanced using the MA1 alignment system.

cool. thanks for sharing. I'm wondering have you also tried Sonarworks? If so, I'm curious what differences have you found.
No, I didn’t. What I like about the MA1 is that it is all engineered and developed by Neumann which I trust to know their speakers best.

@@chimerastate Fully agree here. I trusted Neumann for last 30 years for their mics and never failed. One of the best companies in audio pro industry.

You can turn off the power on the back of the sub or use a power strip with an on/off button. That’s how I do it.
@@chimerastate thanks so much for your response. I was hoping that there might have been an easier way, but maybe that will follow down the line.

An idea why the sub is always showing up as sub left even though I only have one? I cannot find an answer anywhere.
Are you using the MA1 and are you talking about the naming in the drop down menu or the visualization of the speaker setup?

thx will check this up @@chimerastate
what stands are you using for the monitors?
They came with the Neumann table stand set.
