    Designed for musicians, recordists, and content creators, the Harbinger LX12 12-channel mixer is packed with the tools you need to be your creative best. Whether you’re setting up your home recording studio, creating a podcast, playing solo or small group gigs at local clubs, or looking for a utility sub-mixer for your keyboard, guitar, or drum rig, the LX12 connects you and your audience with pristine, easy-to-use quality. Featuring a variety of inputs, from low-noise, high-gain mic preamps with solid phantom power to high-impedance guitar inputs that preserve your tone and Bluetooth for serious flexibility, built-in 24-bit digital effects, and a 2x2 USB audio interface, the Harbinger LX12 is ready for whatever inspiration takes you.
    The Harbinger VARI V2310 powered speaker delivers the high-fidelity sound and remarkable convenience. Crafted from high-quality audio components, it provides 400W of amplification through two drivers: a 10" driver for low frequencies, and a 1" compression driver for the high end. Onboard DSP enhances sound and allows for EQ adjustment. Each speaker connects up to five sources at once with the built-in stereo mixer: dual guitar/mic/line inputs, balanced stereo inputs, plus Bluetooth and AUX.
    The Harbinger S12-powered subwoofer delivers 1,000W amplification with a 12" driver and powerful DSP, all in a compact package that's ready for the stage. This sub delivers outstanding clarity and impacts even when pushed to the limit. For ease of use, set the crossover frequency either by the size of the full-range speakers the S12 is pairing with, or select directly by hertz. There’s even a time-align delay feature that avoids phase alignment issues for a maximum low-frequency response. And with 130dB max SPL output, Guitar Center recommends the S12 to deliver clean, deep bass in a variety of situations.
    The Sterling Audio Performance series P30 active dynamic vocal microphone gives you pristine vocal reproduction with its phantom-powered (+48V) active Dynamic Drive technology. The Dynamic Drive electronics help power, and optimum clarity.
    The Sterling custom-tuned microphone capsule will capture just what you need it to, with its dynamically isolated custom capsule suspension system-suppressing handling and stage noise. To that end, its cardioid polar pattern ensures off-axis noise rejection. The ergonomic body and die-cast rugged construction offer a solid grip and peace of mind to any type of performer.
    This microphone comes with a custom protective pouch and mic stand adapter. Step up and be heard.
    Sterling Audio S452 studio headphones are designed for comfortable and accurate monitoring during long studio sessions, DJ performances, chilling out while listening to your favorite tunes, and more. A transparent and detailed soundstage is produced by 45 mm drivers in ported enclosures for reproduction that’s simultaneously expansive, lush, and warm. The S452’s closed-back earcups isolate you from room sounds and other annoyances that hinder critical assessments while recording and mixing, while the padded leather headband and ear cushions are cozy and near imperceptible-even after hours of concentrating on a mix. If you’re a “one ear off” performer while singing or DJing, the S452 accommodates your style with 180° rotatable earcups. These headphones also fold up for easy transport in crowded gig bags, utilize a removable audio cable with a secure twist lock, and offer replaceable ear cushions. The S452 studio headphones are chock full of professional features, and all at a price that will almost make you as happy as winning a Grammy.

    I like the combination of 2. Alto ts412 with the affordable but excellent quality Harbinger S12 subwoofer. All around great sound and under $1,200 for 2 speakers, 2 stands one subwoofer and all cables needed. Decision based on watching your excellent tutorials

      @cathyharrity8050 Před rokem +3

      @@av7809 Altos cost 100 hundred dollars more per speakers 🔊 but are rated much higher than Harbinger. However their 12" speakers and subwoofer are very good especially the new Bluetooth Vari lineup and unless you're playing for crowds of over 60 people the subwoofer does an excellent job and ties in with the Altos just fine at $120 less than the Altos that's why I bought their subwoofer. The Harbinger veri V2312 were not as clear outside and didn't carry the full sound the Altos do. That's why I got the Altos TS412 PA speakers. I thought the Harbinger Subwoofer was enough for my needs and saved me a bit of money. The Vari 2312 is still a great buy for the money and probably the best option in its price range 😀

I'm wanting to get a sub but unsure about just how much sub I need to give me good solid clean bass and can 1 single sub do the job for both PA speakers or do I need to acquire 2 smaller subs? which is more economical and which is more bang for your buck? I may get a mixer too but then doing that means I need a controller and laptop and I'm not ready to spend so much money right now. Just trying to get a banging system for my pleasure and the occasional house party.

    Love your videos. Very informative. I'd like to get some input on a system I'm using. Currently running 2 guitars, bass, 3 vocal mics, and drum kick thru a soundcraft ui16. Main outs to a pair of powered Mackie Thrash 215's. Not a bad sound but missing lows. Considering adding a pair of powered Mackie 118s subs. We play anything from small bars to larger banquet halls and outdoor venues. I want to keep things simple as I am running sound from stage. My thought is running main left and right outs to their respective subs and then running out the high pass outputs to the tops. Will that keep the mix from muddying up? Thanks

    My amp says " lower impedance capability" on the front. Would that mean i could use the amp on these PA speakers.

    Do you know how I’d connect the sub to the amplifier for the PA system? Also, is there a way to divert some of the bass frequency from the PA speakers to the subwoofer?

    • @Peregrine101
      @Peregrine101 Před rokem

      The video shows one answer which will work in general for the first question. The difference would not to use XLR cables, because the outputs on the mixer use a different cable. The subwoofer is able to use those on the input side. The tricky part is the connection from the subwoofer to the speakers. You need a special cable for that, as the speakers lack XLR connections, too. But those are available.
      Your second question is not addressed very extensively in the video, but the answer there is the crossover dial on the subwoofer. This dial sets exactly what you are asking for. It works out the exact point where the subwoofer hands over ("crosses over") to the speakers. What the best setting for your liking is, you have to determine by experimenting for yourself.

    I just watched another video and was told that it's best to run the sub off of the monitor or aux on my board rather than connecting directly to the speakers. I don't use monitors so i could run a line from the sub to the monitor out on the board. Do you think that's a better idea?

    I always thought you run your subs from aux send from desk and your 2 main speakers out of mains? That way u have individual volume control over mains n subs, setting them.up like u have means when u turn up the mains the sub volume raises also???? I'm so confused

      Subs will take on all the low frequencies it is rated for, It will throw all other frequencies not in its range to the mains. The mains will then take the full range frequencies through the amp one ( class D) and the Higher frequencies through Amp two. (A/B ) Built in , powered speakers.

      You can connect the main output (L) on your mixer to your (L) subwoofer input then connect the output on that subwoofer to your (L) your speaker input line. Do the same for the subwoofer and speaker side (R).

    I have a similar system and was told to run from the board to the top speakers and then go out of the sub into one of the top speakers. Is there any advantage to going from the sub first? Also it means using 4 xlr's instead of 3 .

      And I think I have the answer for that.
      1. In this video the subwoofer have crossover and the speaker doesn't?
      2. The reason some will go to speaker first because there speaker have crossover but their sub don't.
      Like mine I just bought 2 alto ts15s and found out they don't have crossover but my ev zlx 12 p speakers have crossover.

      The Low Pass Filter (LPF) is a crossover filter network that allows frequencies below the set-point to pass onto the subwoofer driver

      That is normal hissing is the amp on PA systems you have 2 amps pre-amp & power Amp, the power amp is running at a fixed level 100%,
      The Pre-amp is variable, turn up the pre-amp Gain (volume) Makes the speaker louder. the hiss never gets louder.
      Home audio system work opposite Pre-amp is fixed,
      (Volume) Gain is on the Power-amp side. no volume no hissing, 50% vol 50% of the Hissing but the music is so loud you cant hear it.
