Set up for EV+QSC

janis

We justed ordered a new Driverack PA. It's on the way and I could use a little help getting started with the setup. I'd appreciate any help at all. We're using the following:


2xElectrovoice G115 (Hi/mid)
4xElectrovoice G118 (sub) (connect 2L and 2R)
1xQSC PLX 3002 (hi/mid)
1xQSC PLX 3002 (low)



p.s. live sound an DJ

First, look through the posts and read everything that sounds interesting, especially gain structure & auto EQ.

Your speakers want more power than you can give them, especially the subs. Consider running the subs together off the 3002 bridged.

Set up a 2 x 3 (stero in, stero out with mono sub) EQ should be stereo linked.

Cross over:
Sub - Hi-pass 45hz (or higher because of power) BW18
Lo-pass 100hz LR24
Tops - Hi-pass 100hz LR24

Set gain structure per back of manual (also read on board)
Set limiter (as part of gain set up)
Compressor - Use only if absolutely neccessary
Sub-synth - \"\" \"\" \"\"
PEQ's - Read up
Auto EQ - Will ruin sound if you assume that it does what you think (read up)
AFS - read up

Download the 260 driveware and play with it. It will help you see what the DRPA is doing (on common features).
