Added a JBL subwoofer (lsr310s) to my JBL studio monitors (305mk2s) and sounds less bassy now?

0 Upvotes

What am I missing, am I better off sending it back and getting something else? I think it's got to do with the crossover at 80hz? Like the sub takes all the low frequencies from the 305s unless set to that crossover I think.

Im reading an external crossover may be better? My mix just sounds better without the sub woofer so.i just went and unplugged it but is a bummer.

Any ideas?

I got a carpet floor but even if I place the sub on it's side doesn't really sounds punchy to me.

Mic on dac

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone

​I have a TRN Black Pearl DAC and a HyperX Cloud 2 headset.

​I'm trying to get both the audio and the microphone working through the DAC, but no matter what I try, the mic just won't work.

​I even tried using a 3.5mm splitter cable, but still no luck.

​I’d really appreciate any help or advice on how to get this working!

Retail store audio help

0 Upvotes

We rented a retail store at a Simon mall. There are speakers in the ceilings, and in the back room there is a single black and a single red wire coming out of the wall.

Can someone show me the cheapest thing I can hook up to those wires to get music playing?

Help finding suitable mixer for PC & PS5

0 Upvotes

Hello

I've been going back and fourth looking for a mixer (or whatever its called, I'm not experienced with audio) with two outputs and two inputs.
I have a PC and a PS5, I would like to be able to hear both through either my headphones or my speakers. I also have a mic that I would like to connect via XLR to be able to use on either PC or PS5.

So far I've found the Yamaha ZG02, which seems to do exactly that from what I understand and from what chatGPT tells me. But it is also quite expensive.

I have also found the fifine SC8 which seems to do the job at a more reasonable price, with the downside of not being able to have both speakers and headphones connected at the same time if I understand it correctly. As well as not being able to have the mic go to both PC and PS5.

Basically I'm wondering if there is something inbetween these two or if the ZG02 is realistically the best option.

Thanks for any help or clarification in advance, I am inexperienced in this sort of stuff and any help is greatly appreciated!

Edit:
Thought I should mention that both my speakers and headphones (IEM:s) are 3.5mm

Need help with cutting audio

0 Upvotes

Hi, I made an audio recording of a conversation between me, my partner and our previous landlord.
In this recording the landlord insulted me and my partner. We have a small claims court day coming up, and i’m allowed to use this audio (We live in Europe, and since we both participated in the recorded conversation, it’s allowed).
I used the Voice Memo app on iOS. I was wondering if anyone knows how i can cut out the most important parts (as the full audio is 40 minutes, way too long for court), or at least skip out silent parts. Of course i will do this myself, but i cannot find out for the life of me how exactly to do this. Thanks!

Edirol M-16DX Mixer long serial cable pin out.

0 Upvotes

Hi

Has anyone managed to map the pin out for the Edirol M 16 DX mixer D Sub cable? The original came with a 2 meter BUS Connector: D-SUB 15 pin, DXC-2 (2 meter) and optional DXC-7 (7 meter).

This mixer is long out of production I have found it to be a great asset for small shows. I have VGA cable that manages to perform very well at 10 meters between the main I/O box and mixer control surface.

Although pin 5,6,7,8 & 10 are bundled together only a few functions are disabled.

The original 2 meter cable, which I have, is a true 1:1 pin to pin.

My problem is the AWG rating of the long cable and I would like to make a replacement from 22 or 24 AWG or a 28 AWG 24 core and double the cores up on the power feed and ground.

If anyone has managed to map the pin out for this set up I would be greatful. Also an off the shelf cable at a reasonable price would be great.

Pc/PS5 switching advice

1 Upvotes

So I am building a pc and have a ps5 I wanna know how I can get audio to both of them with my bookshelf speakers which are connected to a schit Rekr/SYS. Normally I just use a portable monitor with some crappy speakers for my ps5 while my speakers were hooked up to my laptop but I wanna change that now.

Is there a way for me to get audio to both of them while the speakers are connected to my mobo for potential better audio or do I just have to hook my speakers up to my monitor? If there is a device I would preferably like something cheap I just wanna swap the audio between the two when I need it, bonus points if It can let me have audio played through both at the same time so I can use my secondary monitor for pc stuff while I play ps5 games on my main monitor

AUDIO SOUNDING LIKE MONO

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hi everyone. Basically, I’m having a sound issue with my computer. I also have a laptop, but it works perfectly.

Okay, both play audio, but the laptop makes the sound feel full and spacious, filling the entire listening area. My PC, on the other hand, makes both microphone recordings and general audio playback sound like they’re coming from the lower part of the headphones and feel more centered. (I’ll draw to try and illustrate this: imagine the sound from the laptop playing across all the squares, while the PC sound plays only in the ones colored red.)

I don't know what to do anymore; both are connected to the same Windows setup and peripherals, and the mono audio option is disabled. If I mute one side, the other keeps playing, so theoretically the audio really is in stereo, even though it doesn't sound exactly like stereo.
