X AIR How To: Ringing out Monitors with Graphic EQ & RTA (Android)

In this video, we show you how to prevent feedback by ringing out your monitors with X AIR Digital Mixer, using the X AIR Android app.

got the debut gig of our x18 tonight, so far having done research and played around with it this could be the answer to all our issues and more, thanks Behringer

[GuitarGuys]

Thanks for the X18 videos! My band is putting a new P.A. together and we just purchased a new X-Air X18 along with powered mains and subs and the Behringer personal monitor amps for in ears. Now my question is, can you guy's do a complete tutorial series in a real wold band environment for someone who has never mixed (or in my case hasn't mixed sound in over 20 years), showing everything from how to connect all of the cabling to sound checking and mixing? How and when to use what effect, how to mix drums and effects such as when and how to use a gate on a kick etc.... The tutorials you guy's have now are great but just not complete.

[DBLAZE]

This seems like the answer to all my prayers. Haha. Just ordered. I suck at EQ.

Hi Phil, as a new convert to the X Air, this (and all the other vids) is really useful. On this particular one, would it be possible to do a similar HowTo where you ring out the monitors using a pink noise generator as the input?

Fantastic Phil - Thanks! 

You rock!

[Ahyubastu]

This is groundbreaking info for me! Thank you!

I've watched this several times, but I am guessing because the video is nearly five years old (and android) that the app has changed a lot, and probably the iPad version is different anyhow.
I can not for the life of me find the 100 band eq in the output / bus sends on my version using the latest App on an iPad 6. Can you tell me where to find it please, or better still do a video using the iPad with the latest app, and actually show where you are finding the buttons to press on the screen, as some of the names you mention here just do not appear on the main screen of the iPad app at all, so that makes it impossible to follow this tutorial, and remove the feedback before it even happens. I used my XR18 desk for the first time a couple nights back live, and was at the mercy of the feedback monster because even though two of us at the gig have the same system, neither of us know where to locate that eq and therefore how to get rid of the feedback using our iPad controllers. Note I also have the X Touch Desk, but again I am only just starting to find my way around that, as this whole world of digital mixers, with iPad / android controllers is a whole different monster to guys like myself who grew up with old school desks that take up half a room.

When you lower the frequency in the bus master to reduce feedback, are you also reducing frequencies if you are playing a track via the bus?

[MrADrown]

Trying to find the equivalent Bus Master and100 Band RTA on IPAD or X-Air EDIT program?

[joshholland]

I can’t seem to find this option on the updated version of x air. Is this function not available on the updated version?

[theedifyingassembly]

Great, Especially when you don't have a FB destroyer

[ajha]

Thanks for your lessons, although I do not speak enough English, I understand, my question is:
I understand that is possible by software x-air edit control all functions of the mixer, using a network cable (CAT 5). if this is true, it could be the mixer on stage and laptop to 10 -15 meters, in front of the stage.

[afincaomuzik]

Is there a way to do this on iPad? I can't seem to find the Bus master

[divasmom]

when the blue line indicator go's up to tell you what frequency to pull back' if your playing live by the time look down to see which one it is' its gone' is there a setting to make to make the blue indicator stay up longer?

classes. Phil, where did you learn to be a sound engineer?  

[hoithanhsi-on]

Hi! Where can I find this option on the PC app?

[darryllucius]

Is the 31 band GEQ in the busmaster for the whole system? When I pull out problematic frequenties in the busmaster, will it affect the whole foh sound too? how can i pull out freqs only for that mic? can i put a 31 band as inserts?

[joseramonmv]

Does this subtractive eq affects the overall eq of each instrument? lets say you substract high frequencies from the vocal channel because of feedback...is your vocal channel going to miss those frequencies so you vocalist will sound less crisp??

[cristianclaverol]

Can this be done on a X32 as well? I don't recall to see the rta on the eq sections on neither x32 full or x32 producer that I have, if would be totally cool if you can do the same thing?
