The PEQ screen could get some improvements:
at last I would love to see some EQ emulations (Pultec, 1073, 1084, SSL, ISA EQ)
good ideas!
the one with the dedicated switches for the filters seems somehow familiar to me… 
but of course, we need improvements to make the dLive stand out from the SQ again a bit. e. g. a selection of filter modes for the HiCut (Linkw. Riley, Butterworth, Bessel)
I would like to point out my wish to get a good speaker correction for outputs, preferably as a deep processing object.
it’s a reminder…
the speaker correction is still in my mind, but I’m not shure if I want this on the desk
on the other hand, i do it very often with seperating zones with matrices and control the system with different matrix feeds
I do a lot of jobs with my console, where I do monitor mixes from the FOH.
here I also often use my own monitors, and the equalization is stored as preset for PEQ and GEQ. that’s fine, but for example the locut is not well adjustable. moreover, I lose a few faster filter options for different halls, because I have already used the PEQ filters for the speaker system equalization. you can’t do everything with the GEQ.
for this purpose I would like to see a solution in deep processing.
OK, understand, I habve to think about it
I knew you would understand me
Smaart and FIR Filter as DEEP processing? Would free up the PEQ/GEQ
Howdy
-LPF default value should be 20kHz not 2
I second that.
And a 8 filter EQ in the effect rack would be cool.
I also vote for all that improvements.
+1 for all your suggestions.
An 8 filter EQ as DEEP processing would be great. Then you would not have to use an effect rack for this and could possibly add more of these EQs.
Also configurable HPF in the busses would be great. At the moment you always lose one EQ band and cannot select the slope of the HPF.
I’m pretty sure its been asked elsewhere, but just a visual tweak on the PEQ page to show an RTA on that EQ as an overlay to the EQ.

yes indeed we asked this already
@alexanderwabel
DEEP processing EQ would be a good thing, then it’s possible to provide different characters or flavors of EQ
and one of these could be a special PA tuning EQ for output processing and problem solving
something like this https://www.siraudiotools.com/StandardEQ.php
I like this one very much and uupps it has a RTA
This is a professional console. Why would you want or need your console to do what a separate processor or amplifier is designed to do? I agree with “character” EQ but FIR and crossover design should travel in an amplifier or processor dedicated to that task.
I don’t want useful console R&D wasted doing something that is solved by loudspeaker manufacturers.
@erniep-23
if it’s possible why not?
but it was just an idea, with “?” at the end
in the iLive we had a tool pointing in this direction already
btw wich loudspeaker manufacturer solved this for all others? They all provide solutions for their own range of speakers
and sometimes it’s good to have a tool to improve total system performance without the access to the manufacturers solutions
Sure, anything is possible. But the iLive version of the crossover section was less than ideal in patching and management. I would rather see implementation of things this console lacks on the console front. A modern RTA for example… interesting EQ modelling that could be inserted in via the FXs if need be. A latching Width button on the C series EQ area, A clock that doesn’t lose time.
No speaker manufacturer has done that because…Why would they? If you need FIR filters for your boxes you would buy what ever they spec. System perfomance issues usually can’t be solved on the console.
I purchased Dlives for one reason. They are fantastic consoles that punch above their weight.
I am still in favour of a deep processing element for loudspeaker control.
In order to work professionally, you don’t necessarily have to use loudspeakers that absolutely need an external system power amplifier with DSP.
But I also find the demand for FIR filters somewhat exaggerated. if a loudspeaker needs something like this, I would of course use a systemamp.
a watch that doesn’t have to be adjusted all the time, but I would also like to have one
I would like to hear something from A&H about the DEEP processing EQ…
DEEP processing EQ’s sounds like the sexiest feature suggestion in this topic, indeed
but the most useful things before this would be definitely : on/off switches for each filter + RTA on the PEQ window.
I already suggested “RTA on the PEQ window” in 2008, for iLive. At that time I was probably the only one…
This has not yet been implemented, but I see that more and more colleagues are asking for it.
in any case, this increases the probability that we will get this useful solution!
and concerning the DEEP-EQ: A&H doesn’t answer, this allows two possibilities:
A) they are already working on it and do not want to publish it yet
B) they don’t care at all.
