hi not sure how to do the link thing but hopefully you can get it from above
the speakers are all powered 2 tops which can be used full range or as mid tops with switch
and 2 powered subs
the work i do is djing in hotels etc crowds are usually 100 to 200
the mixer is a numark ppd 9000 and the music is supplied via numark d2 media controller
hope this is enough info
cheers andy
That means you set the subs filter to 37hz HPF and 130 LPF
Set the tops HPF to 130 hz and the tops would then go to \"out\" since there is no LPF for the tops...
You need to set the switch on the tops to fullrange, send the \"outputs\" of the PX to the tops, and the \"sub outputs\" to the subs... there will be no connection between the speakers... unless you want the speaker system to be it's own crossover then use preset#1 stereo mains, and set the HPF to 37 hz...

i managed to get the dbx onto StMainsSSub but even with the manual could'nt alter the hpf and lpf to your sugestions
tried spks anyway worked ok but a lot of hiss from tops when no music playing all leads are good and balanced i presume this is because i can't work out how to set the filters correctly
i did try the auto set up with mic but that was disaster
all i really want the dbx to do is cut out the unwanted hiss and make the tops sound tighter and less harsh with a clean bottom end

<SETUP> - Press and release to enter the high-pass and bandpass filter editor. Press and hold to enter the first page of the Powered Speaker Setup Wizard.
you should familiarize yourself with what the buttons do, you can't screw up anything so go for it!
Do the speakers have hiss without the driverack? If so it's a matter of getting the gain structure right. most likely hitting the speakers harder and turning down the speaker volume itself. Start with gain structure. Try and get the mixer to just clip (using pink noise) and see where the PX is on the input meters if it's about -12-with the -6- flickering but below clip thats fine...then, set the crossover gains so the outputs are again as above...then use the volume control on the speakers and turn it up till the clip light just starts to flicker...thats all the system has then mark that location on the mixer for future reference... If you want to do an auto eq you better read the 'read me fiirst before posting' section...

managed to set up dbx driverack to suit speakers but still had unwanted hiss/hum but now i have sorted that by inserting a noise gate/compressor b4 the driverack seems to work ok
