Sound System Tuning Step-by-Step using TRACT and Smaart

1:17 Equalizing a full range PA
3:02 Time-aligning front fills to mains
4:57 Time-aligning subs to mains

**Please note: at 4m40s the proper Delta value & delay time is 20ms. The plugin used in this video is an early beta version.

in soviet russia, you do not find delay, delay finds you

[Bigswifty]

VAL!!! Its been ages since I last saw you!

[Mikee]

A good lesson, but you can do all of that with Smaart, you don't need an external plug-in or application to get the job done.

[doziermuzic]

WOW, I'm not ready for this. Lol

[morganbelle]

And what about coherence? If you have a uneven response like in the video, you also need the coherence to make a solid interpretation of the measurement. It is totally wrong to stupidly create an FIR-Filter that compensates a Measurement with low coherence which is of course corrupted by a lot of factores (for Example reflections of all kinds)

[renesupersonic]

How can you do all of this without having smaart?

[Hazelcut]

So it's like some kind of automated processor ? It seems it can replace everything we usually do using a processor on a sound system (delay compensasion, eq for the room, and even compressor if we use other plugins)

[tepacookmuzic]

Hey Waves, hope all is well. What is the spelling of this kind mans name? Is it Vaal or vel. Just enjoy his presentation every time with his accent. Hope he keeps presenting more videos for Waves.. Thanks for sharing..

[okaudiopro]

I am totally lost ...you can you all this this smaart already .... then why bother using the plugin ???...what I am missing here ?please answer anybody ....thanks

[tiagofaria]

What we would really appreciate is to see the response after the processing is applied and you don't do that in any videos... Isn't it what it is supposed to do? Why not show it?

[COREDRUMROOM]

I'd like he's "have a great show"

[sjftech]

Shouldn't the Delta at around 4:30 in the video be 20? As in 36.29-16.29?

[FloodedBeats]

I don't need this but this video was very interesting

[mbartsproductions]

How you setup with Waves MultiRack? Please !

[olegnaumenko]

Some "bumps" and "dips" simply shouldn't be equalised. Blindly flattening the magnitude response doesn't solve the whole problem.

[shriket]

yeah, let´s correct it exactly in the high frequencies like shown. probably there will be a little problem with Sibilance in the vocals ( and much more )
Sorry, tuing a PA is not that easy and will never be. The Human part is still there to NOT do it with a simple stupid auto correction curve!
The older mixers know that, but the younger genreration wich is used only to plugins and digital?

[jeffa]

sir, what is the name of the mic used to measure in this video? What's the brand and mic series? Thank you sir

[martypeters]

In the Seventies and eighties we used a radical system, our EARS.

[olliercedric]

si tu passe pas tes sub en full range pour dire au logiciel ou sont les sub par rapport au micro en impulsionnel et ensuite regardé la phase, ta phase est faussé. Sauf si les sub sont collé, la sa marche.

Smart, dirac live apps, rew how about liencese and price .
