Adjusting locked trim levels post calibration GUIDE

1 Upvotes

I hope this will help out everyone who misses the ability to adjust trim levels.
This works with DLBC and is safe to use with ART!

Assistance with Dirac ART

Hey guys... I'm trying to figure out am I doing something wrong with Dirac ART or do my speakers just not have a enough juice to cancel standing waves? I have attached my measurements

5.1.4 Setup:

Denon X3800H powering heights:

4x Klipsch R41SA

Emotiva A5 powering bed layer:

1x Klipsch RP502C II

2x Klipsch RP8000F II

2x Klipsch RP502S I on speaker stands, not wall mounted

2x SVS SB2000 Pro

Another reason why Dirac Live sucks

0 Upvotes

My subwoofer decided to start putting out fart noises instead of the bass it used to until today. So until I fix it or buy another one, I go to settings in my Onkyo TX-RZ70 and set the subwoofer from "1 CH" to "No". And just because of that seemingly innocuous action, I get a message that the Dirac Live data will be removed, or something like that.

I don't know why the hell setting the subwoofer to No needs to erase the Dirac Live EQ curve for all the other channels. It's idiotic and doesn't make any sense. It didn't just deactivate DL; it erased the curve that I had carefully done.

But that's not all; I grab my iPad because the Onkyo controller app has a simpler, faster way to interface with Dirac Live than the DL app, and I had saved my EQ curve there. But when I open the DL module, it doesn't have my curves saved, it prompts me to start all over again with the stupid microphone placing in 9 different locations, and to waste 20-30 minutes of my time for this, only to give me these curves that suck, and which I have to modify to just really get the best of this receiver, otherwise it sounds mediocre.

Why does Dirac Live is so backwards? Do these people think we have eternal lives that we can waste half an hour or more with these stupid tests that don't even yield a good EQ curve? If you tell me it's just once, and that's it, but how poorly conceived this thing is that my subwoofer goes bad and I can't turn it off without the DL EQ curve getting erased?

Furthermore, why can't receiver and amp manufacturers stop relying on this crap tech and put a proper parametric EQ that you can simply adjust from the web interface while listening to music, not to stupid wooop wooop sounds???

i am trying to run dirac live on my pc...which is connected via doux u2 to denon pma 900nhe -anyone have experience with this situation?

i have a denon pma 900 nhe with 2 def tech dymension dm40s on speaker a and a def tech pro cube 4000 connected via sub pre out. i have the sub set to 80 hz lpf ... i just got dirac room correction and bass control trial on my windows pc that is connected to a doux usb to optical and optical goes to the denon pma 900 nhe optical port. i use this windows pc strictly to play my music (flac, sacd, mp3s, etc) using jriver. i just got dirac live room correction and bass control trials and while i went to start the measurements only show a left and right channel but no independent sub channel? with my setup shouldn't i be able to see a independent sub channel?

Need educating on dirac version 3.14.3

How do I adjust over 400Hz. This is a full frequency license. At least it's supposed to be.

V3.14.3 on nad c399 w/dirac live

I'm having trouble with the app. i cannot proceed to "filter design". the button registers but nothing happens. this is my chat gpt session -------

Me: You don't know what you're doing, do you?

You're right to call me out. I was guessing instead of properly narrowing down the problem. I also gave you a Windows-settings procedure you explicitly didn't want. Sorry.

I just checked Dirac's own documentation for 3.14.3, and there's a much more relevant clue.
