Well done bro.i came across your channel not long ago and I must commend you for the good work. I would like to add another perspective to this conversation not to refute your video, but for us to exhaust the topic thoroughly. 1. Physical limitations. In other to split the entire frequency range within 31 bands on a physical device, there's bound to be some compromises . It is physically impossible to add a center frequency(Q) on each band on a GEQ. So, the bands not being exactly on the predetermined frequencies or changes affecting neighboring frequencies are to be expected. Putting steep notch filters on a GEQ wouldn't serve any practical application in my opinion, that's the work of a PEQ. GEQ is meant for broad stroke applications. 2. Brand/Quality. The quality of components used by a particular manufacturer within the device goes a long way to affect how the device functions. All these zongo lane/china devices we have in Ghana are wack. A good brand will always serve you better. 3. Phase. Phase shift is an unavoidable side effect of EQ, unless of course you use a linear phase EQ. As how drastic the phasing is will depend on how well the the device was manufactured. Since GEQs are minimum phase EQs, it is the manufacturer's duty to ensure that the device does exactly that, so as not to introduce any nasty problems within the phase domain. AD/DA. I believe the converters of your audio interface should also be taking into account within the context of the test. How much color is it imparting to the signal. In conclusion, I personally believe that we should be able to make use of whatever is at our disposal as audio engineers to make something happen. I'm sure you've pulled out some fantastic shows with some mediocre equipments in the past. The most important thing is to know your craft inside out. I have subscribed to your channel! I'd like to be a part of your success on this platform..... peace✌🏼
@@samuelkennethacquah1068 you're welcome bro. You'll be seeing more of my comments on your videos just to create conversations around the topics for the algorithm... ✌🏼
This DBX Seems to work fine, I dont see anything wrong, But learning is allways good :) Lowcut is to protect top speakers without sub, I guess the roll off frequenzy is at - 3 db so maby around 75 hz A 31 band eq has typ a q (how steep it cut or boost) of 4 +- again thats about 0,4 of an octave, an octave is half/double in frequenzy, eq 100 hz, one octave up is 200, one octave down is 50 Most if not all filters and eq's on std gear works by making fase shift, thats the princip The trick is if you eq before the filter of sub and high, the fase shift on sub and high is the same meening difference in fase between high and low is 0, så no sound problem. If you have sub on you can Lowcut protect Them by using the 20 and 25 hz slider, you can measure it yourself just remember a given cut freq is at - 3 db Have fun 😊
Bro I’ve been trying to understand and read phase for the longest time, I finally understand it. Thank you!
You welcome sir.

Thanks mate for the addup and further explanation. Peace ✌️

That will be cool
This DBX Seems to work fine, I dont see anything wrong,

Lowcut is to protect top speakers without sub, I guess the roll off frequenzy is at - 3 db so maby around 75 hz
A 31 band eq has typ a q (how steep it cut or boost) of 4 +- again thats about 0,4 of an octave, an octave is half/double in frequenzy, eq 100 hz, one octave up is 200, one octave down is 50
Most if not all filters and eq's on std gear works by making fase shift, thats the princip
The trick is if you eq before the filter of sub and high, the fase shift on sub and high is the same meening difference in fase between high and low is 0, så no sound problem.
If you have sub on you can Lowcut protect Them by using the 20 and 25 hz slider, you can measure it yourself just remember a given cut freq is at - 3 db
Have fun 😊
@@orlarieper6175 thank you sir for the top up
Pls what's the name of the software you are using in the system?
The name of the software is Smaart. U can visit www.rationalacoustic.com for it.
Do u have a class for teaching
@@vibehealth6828 i do online classes. Depends on what you want to learn
@@samuelkennethacquah1068
Online ? How do you cater fr the practical sessions
