Like I had mentioned in a previous post I am achieving no more than a 4db variance in my mixing position. Is that "good" , "fair", "poor" ? I don't really know exactly what I am supposed to be trying to achieve. I want my mixes to translate well to CD and I want accurate representation of what I am doing. Can anyone share their mixing position freq responses and offer some guidence here? THank You, b PS. Sorry for so many posts it's just that I have been struggling with these questions for some time and it is nice to finally find a forum that can address them. Thank you very much by the way to John and who ever else keeps this forum alive. It is marvalous. B
4 dB seems really tight; how did you measure, exactly? Steve
I used my ears. Just Kidding. I used Smaart Live and measured it from the listening position.
4db is probably better than the quoted response of the speakers ;) cheers john
What can I say ...home made tube traps really work. I am still trying to tame the freq response below 125hz though. Above that the measurements I am getting with my equipment do not vary more than -4 or +4 db. So depending on how you look at it that would be a variance of 8 db. I don't know the variance specified for Mackie 824's. Respectively, B
