[QUOTE="karel.will, post: 35393, member: 168"] Re: Frequency Response/Contour EQ in full range systems. When I am very happy about my system tech-ing, this is how it measures. From as low as I can get it till 100Hz, it stays at +12 dB, then from 100Hz upwards, I try to keep it at 0dB, as high as I can get it. A not so system tech savvy colleague of mine describes the result like this: "If you tune a system, and I turn my lead singer on, I hear a normal, natural voice, without any channel EQ" Maybe this is the result of growing up as a sound dude with a lot of folk(rock) and world music, as opposed to heavy rock, metal or techno? I really believe in a soundsystem being a means of amplifying a band, not distorting. I think that the sound of a band should be made by the talent on stage and behind the desk, not by the sound system. But then again, if I would be touring with a band engineer who wants me to make the system sound a certain way, I could see how that could be part of a signature sound of a band. Most of the time however, I don't have to please one BE, but a lot of them, or I only meet the BE right before soundcheck, for a one-off... Just my 0.02€... Charlie [/QUOTE]
