Re: life after the DEQ 2496


It's nice to have a digital EQ with AES I/O at a reasonable price. The digital I/O enables me to insert the device without more AD/DA conversion, keeping things cleaner.


My big question is, and it's a bit of a hijack, how would one even use a regular graphic EQ with a system that is all digital? I'm very shortly going to be using Cobranet to distribute audio directly from a digital console to the amplifiers over a network. There is absolutely no way to insert a Graphic EQ anywhere, other than using the console's built-in ones. I know that graphic EQs are actually pretty useless in reality, but what if an act insisted on one? What would you do?


Tim, back to you, why do you need a graphic? Six bands of parametric should do everything you would ever need to do with a system. What does the rest of your system look like? Do you have more EQ elsewhere you could repurpose?
