newbe user question about setting up drive rack for rcf 4pro

Jaymichael1

greetings! i am using 4 rcf 4pro 8001 self powered subs and 2 rcf 4pro 4001
3 way tops for a mobile live music/dj company. i recently purchaced a driverack 260 to use to manage the system. typically im doing shows
in community centers and halls setting up 2 subs underneath a single 3 way top. being as these speaks are not listed in the presets im wondering if anybody uses these or could help me set up my crossover to match these
units. the specs on the speakers are at these links.

Welcome and wise choice.

I don't use those, but....

Tops - 100 (LR24) - out (or add an upper filter at 18 or 19K if you wish)

Subs - 45 (BW18) - 100 (LR24)

Setting the gain structure and limiters on the 260 with powered speakers is difficult because you have to take the system to the point of clipping to do it right. The cabs do have limiting, so that helps. But you will still need to set up a brickwall limiter with the 260. Read the READ ME FIRST posts for very useful info.

the 260.
