Often it’s best to learn to tune a sound system by ear, it helps you develop your ear and question what sounds good.
But our ears can be inconsistent and there are problems that can be difficult for you to hear at first.If you’re serious about getting a great sounding system then you should be using measurement software to give you hard data.
If you get some practice and have a process to follow then you can add measurement software into your workflow pretty easily. That’s why in this video I want to give you a measurement and tuning workflow to get you started using data and your ears to EQ your system, and remove the guesswork.
The most important thing is that you get started, that’s the fastest way to learn how to tune systems.
We’ll cover:
Setting the gear up so you know how to get a measurement.
Verifying that everything is working so you don’t chase a silent speaker with EQ.
Using the software to verify that your EQ is doing what you need it to.
