[QUOTE="Per Søvik, post: 72604, member: 1285"] Re: Crossover processing onboard As was discussed earlier, doing a crossover other than main-sub is very risky business, and in a three way set up, the mids will have very little eq leftover for any correction. To do three way crossover, you'll need some dsp or filtering in the amps to be safe, so you could do it all there anyway. However, in a sub-top setting, where the tops are left basically unprocessed or are being processed later in the chain, it makes all the sense in the world to have the processing in the mixer if that can save outboard gear, hassle and/or money. Looking at the dbx drpa correction for jbl speakers, this can be easily emulated in the X32, some other speaker manufacturers specify a lot more correction that would be hard to emulate. I find the addition of butterworth (BW) particularly usefull, linkwiz-riley (LR) less so as that is available cascading two low-cut filters. To do a BW you would need to correct with a third band, so there is a saving there now that frees up available correction. The phase invert is of course invaluable when testing sub set-ups, and there is a real saving when you are able to do a sub array without an expensive outboard processor or rack of delays and filters.
