[QUOTE="Jeff Kenney, post: 84070, member: 3954"] Re: PK Sound We (the edm community) use quite a bit of Vdosc and D+B. We do not like Meyer.. EDM is very much like alternative of the 90's.. it is a gateway to many different genres / sub genres that all have very clicky followings. Each one of these genres is a very different type of music with different technical requirements. Hearing over and over people complain about "over compressed" djs music is nothing strict to EDM. I see hip hop and top 40 djs copy each others hard drives of poorly sampled, poorly played back material... 5/10 it is the method of playback that causes poor quality the other 5/10 it is the source files. The main culprit here is the technology djs are using and how they drive it.. I don't tune for "boom and sizzle" when it comes to an EDM system. What I do make sure is there is plenty of mid level and low mid level power handling and solid bass. This typically means large format line arrays or aggressive 3 way boxes that can go well below 100hz. Specifications get a little hazy with this type of music because "peak" doesn't mean much when your program material is aggressive and less dynamic. I have seen the industries best equipment not hold up to the abuse... this is what has lead for specialization for people like terry mac, nathan short, pk sound, avalon, funktion one, void, and other systems and people out there.
