    Since you have it. Press the EQ button, then press next as necessary to select the GEQ. Press the DATA wheel to highlight the freq (I believe at the lower left of the screen). Scroll the wheel to change the freq shown. When you have changed it to the freq desired, press the DATA wheel to highlight the gain (#.# db) at the lower right, I believe. Scroll the wheel to increase (or decrease) the db level.

    Well update time everyone. The P.A sounds great but and its a big 'but' its destroying Kirsty's vocals. She's losing her voice in the second spot and can't get anything out.

    To put you in the picture we dont use monitors,never have in 25 years and never had a problem.

    We also encountered the exact same problem years ago when we had the Driverack P.A. Leading to Kirsty having to come off the road for a few weeks.

    Now we've tried the system minus the Driverack and everything is back to normal and okay.

    Sounds bizarre but can anyone put their finger on it?

    Are certain frequencies conflicting with Kirstys,is compression killing her,i just dont know.

    Like ive said i'm okay with it but its killing Kirsty.

    Cheers in advance...

    Well, unless you can tell us what you think is missing it's going to be difficult to pinpoint... her hearing may be sensitive in some areas that the driverack is cutting??? Never heard of a band that can exist with no monitors...

    You mentioned compression. You are not using compression on the DRPX are you? That is generally a mistake. Turn off the compression and give it a whirl.

    You don't have to do anything other than turn the wheel to OFF.
