Great video, guys. I got my first Dirac Live processor last fall, and watched a ton of videos to try and get up to speed. I wish this one had been available back then, as it would have saved me a ton of time, confusion, and uncertainty. This should really help somebody get great results in the shortest amount of time, with the least frustration.

great video, thank you. Dirac should be putting out content like this.

Thank you so much for making this process easier! Wonderful customer service!

Several years ago i became the proud owner of a processor with dirac. Today im getting to it.

Excellent tutorial
I was waiting for long time very useful information

[eagleye]

Should I apply Harmann target curve to all groups after bass control calculation or before? Thanks for the helpful video

This video makes all of this so much more clear. I never really understood where to the put the microphone. In fact, I did it wrong looking the image in the program. I am excited to go fix it and follow your guide. Nice guide!

[arielrodriguez]

Great info! Would you say DLBC is more necessary if you have more than two subs?

[martinmares]

Another Excellent instructional video by AA! Greatly appreciated.

I couldn’t keep up with your directions on volume calibration…. Even after pausing and going back. Is the gain the blue line? I have two Focal 936 towers. How do we decide what to set the gains at relative to the black lines or the noise floor? My normal listening master output is -50 db. My left and right towers played at -19. Db respectively. My sub put out at -3.8 db. My noise floor was -58. Db. Any further recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

I hear some reviewers say that Dirac is the best sounding calibration, I also hear some reviewers say Sony’s 3D mapping is the most immersive sound best sounding receiver at the moment. Which one sounds the best to you guys?

[gamingvids]

I sure wish I had this guide when I set my Marantz up. Its the little details you all seem to always get that make your advice great. Thanks.

What is your recommendation for distance left right, Up down in Inches?

Umik1 w/90 calibration + RZ50 + klipsch R115SW subwoofer: Everytime I try to calibrate, it sets my sub DB to -13ish. With that config, while watching a movie, the sub doesnt even turn on (its so low). I set it the same as the other speakers during volume calib. I figured maybe it finds it too loud while doing the tests, so I clear the points, set the sub 10DB lower volume in the volume calib, try again... same result. Ive found tons of comments with people having same issue, but have not found a solution. Any ideas?

[texxhexxmm]

Did you use the latest mimi dsp Firmware with umik 2 ?

[arielrodriguez]

I used the Onkyo app and it transferred the calibration to the receiver however, when I go on the Onkyo app or Dirac app download I do not have any calibrations to be able to look at or modify. Is this because it didn't take to begin with?

[woltergrant]

I have a separate RZ50 hooked up to my heights and rear surrounds with no way of connecting my other channels to the pre outs of the avr. Is it possible to run Dirac for just these channels or will the software fail and error out since the mic won't detect a signal from the rest of the channels that are not run off this avr....

[mastertee]

A little confusing. Is the highest tier of Dirac dependant on hardware or the purchase?

[texxhexxmm]

Dirac Said to me that you should do meassurements also far away from MLP ..Like 1m outwards 🤔

Hello can i set two different focus points?
