Soundcraft UI16 Bass setup

[Jacques van zijl]

Hi Guys,

this is my first post on the site I'm not sure if its at the right location sorry if it is,

Here is my Question, We have bought the Soundcraft UI16 and its a stunning product !! there is not much youtube vids about setting up exept the factory setting, but here is my question for the people who have played with the unit, We have the following.

2 x Alto TS15 speakers for High and Mid
1 x Alto TS18sub for bass

we are trying to route the bass to the bin but the Soundcraft UI16 doint have a build in crossover so we went and bought the behringer dcx 2498 to help with that, here is the issue we are not getting volume to go to the Sub..... do we have to create a AUX channel for the Bass Bin?? then use the volume to gain?? so the DCX 2498 can crossover ??

the setting on the DCX 2498 is as follows

Bass sub starting at 37Hz to 151Hz
high to Mid will be starting from 151Hz to 20Khz ( almost full range )

for the life of me its not working... we not getting the bass bin to crossover and also no gain on volume ... its very quite

help needed please

The Alto sub has a built-in crossover, so forget about the DCX. If you want aux run subs you can go directly into the sub. Or, you can follow the directions for set up provided by Alto.
