I was wondering whether folks here who do their own mixing are using a subwoofer in their system? I'm using a pair of Mackie 824's as nearfields - they sound fine to me, but my mixing is atrocious, so what do I know? Anyone? And, if so, how do you integrate the subwoofer into the monitoring system so that the nearfields aren't wasting energy trying to reproduce the frequencies handled by the subwoofer? i.e., so they're not stepping on each other? bzb -- THE SONG FACTORY Words and Music, made to order(TM) WWW: http://www.thesongfactory.com
Same speakers here HR824s and no sub. But ... speakers are like a perscription for glasses, Not everyone is going to get along with the same speakers. I've got pleny of bass and it's balanced with everything else, and my mixes never got good until I got the Mackies.They're the first and only speakers I've every really trusted. And they're hanging here in an untreated environment but that doesn'r seem to be a problem for me. I think the trick is to learn to hear the speakers and not the room.

<Same speakers here HR824s and no sub...my mixes never got good until I got the Mackies.They're the first and only speakers I've every really trusted.> I found the 824's to be so bad and inaccurate that I literally gave them away to a friend of mine. Nothing that was mixed on them translated in any way close to what I heard. They sound lousy at low volumes, and have nothing to do with reality. On top of that, the leeetle tiny buttons on the back are stupid and hard to adjust accurately. The worst speakers have ever used, and I've used most of them. Just my opinion, of course -- Regards, Ted Perlman Producer-Arranger-Guitarist-Composer-Engineer www.tedperlman.com www.myspace.com/tedperlman www.facebook.com/ted.perlman

Yep! I use some small Yamaha nearfields and a Yamaha sub. The mixes on those monitors translate perfectly to the car stereo, computer speakers, and to high quality stereo speakers. -- Remove YourHeadFromYourAss to Reply by email ________ __ / ____/ /__ ____ ____ / /_ ____ / / __/ / _ \/ __ \/ __ \/ __ \/ __ \ / /_/ / / __/ / / / / / / /_/ / /_/ / \____/_/\___/_/ /_/_/ /_/_.___/\____/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Glennbo http://www.soundclick.com/glennbo Non-Linear Sound http://www.soundclick.com/jambits Hear My Music http://www.soundclick.com/ThePseudonyms

No, I don't have any NS10s, but my sub is the same one that both Ted and Dave use. The MSP3s are real flat, but have no bottom.
