When I only have time for one measurement this is the
method I've been using I place microphones at vertical bottom on axis
and vertical top make sure that there are they are all sensitivity matched if
you don't know how to sensitivity match for microphones see the previous video
then I have for transfer function measurement setup and Smaart I've got my
7150 my yellow and my green and I don't have those labeled properly right now
but those would be on axis vertical top and vertical bottom and then I have an
average of all three of those and the way you set that up and smart is you
create 3 transfer functions as you normally would and then you click on new
TF average select all the things you want averaged and pick a color for it
then I turn everything on I just hit play all and oh that got rid of
everything and then I go through and take a look at the live IR and make sure
that everything is grabbing on to the right peak so I can get good data
I also open up a target trace so I have something to compare them to and this is
what I got so here's on axis vertical bottom and here's vertical top and
here's the average of all of those together and then I look at my target
trace on top of that so I'll get rid of the live IR for now so sometimes I met
level between the zones and sometimes I don't
so if we go over here and take a look at the x32 and you can see I've got zones a
B and C I did the first two days of this event with all of these at zero because
I thought that sounded better this time I'm trying it level matched so basically
what I did was I opened up a measurement I basically just adjusted these levels
of B and C while I watched a live measurement here in the high frequencies
yeah so this is about what it looked like before okay so I had a bit of
deviation between all of them not too much so much that thought okay I have to
change all these but I just thought this time around I'll try a level matching
them it just depends on how far they're off they are if the levels are within 60
B of each other of all the microphones and I won't worry about it and I'll just
move forward with the EQ step because this is sort of my what I'm gonna do if
I have a very little amount of time so I'll leave all of them open but I'll
focus on the average here the first thing I'll do is I'll adjust my
reference channel so that I can make sure everything's kind of lining up
around the center line around my target trace I'll take a look at the average
trace and I'll just grab like the first two or three big EQ things so first
thing I need to do is adjust my sublevel so I brought that down to match the
target trace and then what else over here you can see I put in three filters
and I don't have a pre EQ but they're at around 200 400 600 so I needed a filter
around here 200 400 at 600 and that's it and then for me this was good enough
after that I usually play a reference track take the EQ in and out see if it
sounds okay and then I move forward and that is sort of my fast and dirty way of
tuning the system now I only did one array and we have four of them in here
so then I would want to just take a quick walk around the room and make sure
it's just to my ears does everything sound okay is our aldi
arrays sort of matching let me know what questions you have about this I'm
wondering do you do the same thing maybe you have a better way of doing it let me
know
