View Full Version : Getting started with SMAART

Hello,

I have read the PDF linked in the sticky - so I know my way around the program, but I am trying to perform the following:

I have KF650z mains processed by a ux8800. I know the ux8800 introduces some delay for the mains, but I'm not sure exactly how much.

For subs, I am using JBL SRX 728's processed by Crown I-Tech 5000 HD's. I'm using standard IIR filters for those so I do not believe much (if any) delay is introduced there.

I'm also using an Allen & Heath iLive T console - and I think it has about 1-2ms of delay.



My final goal is to phase align the subs with the tops. I was trying to do this the SMAART way but I need to get the time alignment right first. I didn't know how to do this the correct way with SMAART so I ended up simply running a sine wave at the crossover frequency and delaying the subs until I got the most SPL - roughly 2.75ms (the KF650z is sitting right on the SRX 728).

Can anyone point me to a tutorial or give me some advice?

I have a firewire interface, and a DBX reference mic.

Thanks

Hello friend, since you have kf650z, I wonder if you can help me with my problem, I bought some boxes Argentina kf650z in my country and it was a scam because tuning ducts are not like the originals, in my country I have not found a single box z original version, there is only the E version, I wonder if you could give me the measurements of this consducto tuning?. thank you very much

I'm sure there are a lot of files on the internet regarding the alignment of a sub and mid high cabinet .
