My experience touring PACs, small clubs, listening rooms, coffeehouses, and small festivals (I.e. exactly JV level providers) was that I encountered this on about 1 in 5 systems.


The way it is most often put into use is to have the subs on an aux with its own crossover ( often built into a powered sub) and then have all the of bands on the main geq dumped.


Also it was pretty clear why it is not always the best idea to use the highest possible slope. Adding the effect on the phase of the geq to the 48 db/octave crossover added 30 degrees of rotation all the way through the typical MF/HF region.


So instead of telling people not to do it, I set out to create the visual evidence of why you shouldn't do it.
