Did you know that if you purchased Dirac live, you are now enabled to use Dirac bass management without additional costs? it brought me incredible results after exporting the new filter to my AVR!
In This Episode, Dirac CPO Mathias Johansson, will talk about some aspects of the new bass control in comparison with bass management, but not only! ENJOY.

Interesting Q&A!
Please do not forget to implement ART in the Dirac Live software version too. Much appreciated and thank you for this wonderful effective and quite easy to use product!
When the guest is explaining, it would be great if you can stay quiet so we can actually understand him vs talking over him or unnecessary confirmation “yeah” or “hmm” etc. Otherwise, it was a helpful video.
Thank you for schooling us in the fine art of interviewing oh enlightened one
Great interview. Good questions! Also, this guy is able to simplify what his product does for regular people even though he could blow up our brains with overwhelming information if he wasn't careful! The only bad thing about this is it's overwhelmingly clear I need Bass Control to tame the 4 very different subwoofers in my room. Oh well, it's just money, you only live once!
Thx, today I was watching Gran Turismo the movie with Bass Control enabled, is like to have a new Home Theater!
Well said, my motto too 😄
That was a great interview and insight in the software. Active Room Treatment is a serious game changer, imo. Thanks for bringing the good stuff!
Thank you very much ✌️
@@MadAudiofficial Hello, would it have been interesting to show for example where you would have placed the crossover frequency. in the manual it says "Set the crossover point. Select a crossover frequency where the tweeter and subwoofer(s) have energy. 👍
DL BC multisubs is expensive but never heard the Marantz Cinema playing that nice with 7.4.4 ❤ the 4 subs really sound great 👍👏
Yes is Crazy what is able to do! Is like to have a new Home Theatre…
Nice coverage and walk through of using Dirac Live Room Correction and the differences between Bass Management and Bass Control. That said, Dirac ART will be a game changer for dry bass and spatial audio sound staging, and possibly expanding excellent sound into more environments than pure rectangular rooms. All other technologies that Dirac has presented so far have had close competitors both for cross overs, multiple sub management, aligning speakers, frequency correction etc. In addition there are technologies that have aspired to limit excess phase created by the room reflections. My understanding of the potential residing in Dirac Live ART's sound field MIMO technology really looks like it'll provide a game changer in creating an anechoic room in the bass region, judging from waterfall diagrams. The closest to ART so far would be using a DBA and any program limiting excess phase in addition. Part of the difference will be that ART won't require a rectangular room with carefully placed speakers on the front and back walls, opening up for more application environments. In addition it may be able to preserve more of the Side channels, and not requiring to take mono so high up in the frequency range. All they need to do now is present the studio VST-version, too.
I did not get,that bass Management came for free with new Firmware 😅..but i anyway i would have bought bass Control.
Hi, and many thanx for taking the time to set up and stream this very helpful video. Mathias is a very knowledgeable and pedagogical person it seems, and he managed to clarify many points about the integration of those three ”modules ” in the app. We have you to thank for giving him the opportunity to do so!
I do have one question though, if I may:
In bass management or bass control, with multiple subs (2 in my case), we do see the measured response from each unit, but the corrected graph shows only sub 1. No way to select sub 2 to see its spectrum. I gather the graph shows a common corrected spectrum’ but I wonder why we cannot see individual frequency corrections before the sum-up?
From what I know of the Dirac correction system, I was under the impression that it does indeed correct the frequency response individually (same as audyssey) then together.
What am I missing here?
Edit: let me also make clear that I do have the multisub licence, not the single sub one
Thank you, cause you are watching subwoofer 1+2 , this is how your system is working, i think we spoke about it in the directional subwoofer question.
@@MadAudiofficialyep, Mathias did cofirm that the view is an aggregation of the spectrums of subs 1 and 2, but what I am saying is that there is no way that I can see to view individual corrections on a sub basis , like you can on any other pair of speaker.
I mean, on your system, you have two subs, and i presume a multisub DLBC licence, right? Can you select subwoofer number 2 and see its single corrected graph?
@@user-dt1iu3bk7p as i said that’s how subs are managed in bass control, to check individual frequency responses you have to come back to dirac live first page.
My subs are pretty much same Position in room(mid wall) dirac sets one to -1,5dB ,the other -4,5dB.
To me is the best position, still do not understand those are insisting with have them on the front, i mean you might have best position on front but take the risk to test them also on mid wall just to got an idea of how they could sound!
A me,con un singolo subwoofer, si nota una differenza enorme tra bass management e bass control
Great video thanks! The bass-topic is really confusing and the manuals don't give much info. Without enough information you simply cannot get the best out of the system.
I cannot use a dirac app, where i can change Crossover.Only got pc Software Version 3.8.2
Only Crossover from 70hz upward i can change.
You have to do it from PC!
@@MadAudiofficial OK,maybe i saw wrong: i can go lower than Crossover 70hz(Standard Dirac) wih nass Control Filters??
Is DLBC more for people with more than two subs to appreciate it or two subs is as good?
Hi have you forgot to ask my question in live stream? About DLBC smoothing out the crossover region?
What is smoothing out crossover region?
@@MadAudiofficial means there should not be a peak or null at subwoofer and mains crossover. Let’s say you set the crossover for your left center and right speaker to 80hz and subwoofer LPF to 80hz, when they both combined the graph should be nice line without any peaks or null at 80hz.
@@myhomeaudio8751 that’s actually what you should achieve with bass control if all is set and done properly!
@@MadAudiofficial hmmm ok 👍
grazie bel video.. ma quindi con bass management e bass control attivo, nel menù ''speaker setup'' del marantz non è più possibile usare la funzione di direzionalità dei sub?
No nn più, mai usato cmq!
I was so excited to upgrade my Marantz to the new Cinema 30 so I could get Dirac Live....installed the unit, went to the site and paid the top fee for the works and now nothing but crickets......and no way to contact them. The money has cleared my bank but I have not license code. Emailed the help desk 3 days ago and nothing. Does anyone have a contact number for these folks? I really want to get this going. It was quite an investment for it to be useless at this point. HELP!
One question still remains, after trying out the already implemented Bass Control in my Denon... the crossover frequencies can still be set manually in the Denon. Do I set all speakers to large (full spectrum) and then set the crossovers in Bass Control or is the manual setting ignored when a Dirac-Filter is activated?
If you did all correctly, you will not be able to play with crossover settings on your Denon!
Can i have two configuration on my Marantz Cinema 50: one for 5.2.4 and one for 2.0? So i can switch Without loading Filters again?
Is it normal that after calculation Bass Control Filters,the target curve changes from Dirac live before?
Do i have to load desired target curves after Bass Control filter calculation again?
Dirac live and bass control are two different settings, you habe to draw your House curve in bass control!
@@MadAudiofficial i know ,the House curve is already there,it will used instantly with Switch to BC .But the curve Changes with Change of Crossover.The corrected View/spectrum i mean differes
Still do not understand bass Control vs .Bass Management 😢😅
Bass Management is only applying Dirac Live crossover filter instead your reciver one, and you should see already some improvements, dann there is bass control that is working with more filters and making sure that your all system is in phase and harmonized correctly with your subwoofer!
@@MadAudiofficial i can G
go lower than 70hz Crossover? I have large Front speakers that play full range but on data Sheet 44hz maximum.
It would be helpful to further explain how to use Bass Management vs Bass Control. Can only 1 be applied or can BOTH Bass Management AND Bass Control be used simultaneously? From your description, it appears that Bass Control does a lot more than Bass Management to integrate multiple subs.
@@johnggraves bess Control Tutorial is available on my channel!
@@johnggraves you have to choose,only one of them is used after Filter export.
the update cost from dirac live to dlbc should be about 100 dollars not 350, thats why i wont buy it
