RUN AutoEQ/LEVEL ASSIST

When used with the optional dbx RTA-M

measurement microphone, this Wizard

helps you balance the left/right speaker

levels, the low/mid/high speaker levels

(for 2-way and 3-way systems), and

automatically equalizes the speakers to the

current room environment. After selecting

this option, you can select whether you

would like to run both the Level Assist and

AutoEQ functions, Level Assist only, or

AutoEQ only.

The diagrams to the right show the

recommended Level Assist and AutoEQ

RTA-M mic positions. When running

AutoEQ, you will be prompted to select how

many mic positions you would like AutoEQ

to analyze – the selections are: 2, 3, or 4.

The Level Assist and AutoEQ mic position

1 measurements should be taken with

the microphone placed out in front of

the speakers the same distance as the

speakers are apart, so that the three

components form an equilateral triangle,

as shown in the Level Assist/AutoEQ Mic

Position 1 diagram.

Each time you move the RTA-M mic

position it should move approximately

1/3rd the distance the speakers are apart

from the initial “RTA-M Mic Placement 1

Reference”, as shown in the AutoEQ Mic

Position 2-3 diagrams. Mic position 4 is the

exception as it should be placed 2/3rds the distance from the RTA-M Mic Placement 1 Reference. For example, if your

speakers were 20 feet apart, you would move the microphone approximately 7’ (20 * (1/3) = 6.6) from the RTA-M Mic

Placement 1 Reference for mic positions 2-3 and approximately 14’ from the RTA-M Mic Placement 1 Reference for mic

position 4. However, as a general rule of thumb and for the sake of simplicity, a distance of 5’ should work well for most

venues. If the recommended placement of the mic in positions 2-4 is not possible, just place the mic in a position that differs

from the other measurement positions.

RUN AFS WIZARD

This Wizard walks you through the process of ringing out the system to provide higher system gain before feedback. This is

accomplished by pushing your system into feedback so AFS can detect the initial frequencies which cause feedback and notch

them using Fixed filters. When the AFS Wizard is complete, it will automatically enable the Live filters, for automated protection

during system use.
