Re: dba, active absorber instead of porous material?

Well yes, microphone latency is a thing but it's a non issue in these types of measurements. No one is accounting for microphone latency when they read reverberation times, impulses and ETC for example.

Re: Sonarworks Reference 4

Honestly that software messes up far more then it helps. It sounds like shit. Acourate is by faaaaaaar better. There is no competition.

Re: dba, active absorber instead of porous material?

I still think the time delay of active units will never resolve (as it is impossible for an active unit to be look-ahead, it will always be straggling behind transients and microdynamics). AVAA's have no latency. That is scientifically impossible. There is little difference between an active monito...

The PSI AVAA's are great but expensive. No free lunch in the world of acoustics.

Soon done with Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. The final boss is a motherfucker. From Software really notched it up this time.

I haven't had that specific experience but I will say: put things in writing.

Might sound silly now, but down the line when things become 'comfortable' or start to change there is the possibility of conflict.
I agree. This is good advice.

Re: What computer would you buy in 2019?

Yeah ditch Apple these days if you're serious about music. Now their constant OS updates are tough to work around if you, like many of us, use some older plugin gems that the developer doesn't update anymore. Old school Apple for music was proper. Modern Apple for music sets obstacles. Unless you go...

I don' t have the patience for the game's many shitty encounters and I tend to play barbarian/brute style rather than sneaking around so I like to deal with all that slithering backstabby vermin and overpowered humanoid enemies with overwhelming force and a good team!

Re: What video games are you folks playing?

I have an unhealthy relationship with the Souls games. I sold my copy of DS3 a few months ago to make me stop playing, but ended missing it and buying it again.... but I only play online co-op. If anyone is still playing on PS4 and fancies some jolly co-op, drop me a line. From Software's game desi...

Couldn't keep my hands away from Sekiro Shadows Die Twice. Definitely feels comfortable being a From Software player but with some twists. So far enjoying it. So, did u start Sekiro or detroit maybe ? I almost finished my first run on Bloodborne ! What a game... Playing Sekiro yeah. It's difficult ...

I used to go with both the original O300 as well as the newer KH310 and you'll need the subs to listen accurately in the lowest regions. Those speakers are quite good at delivering down to 35hz though.

Mattias, what made you change from KH310 to whatever you are using now?
Upgrade.

Re: Main set of studio monitors.......

Remember that you have to pay more for Genelec fancy features compared to a similar speaker w/o the fancy features. Essentially making (some) of their speakers more expensive then the same price competitors. Suits some, not others.

Re: Any tips on how to get a thick, defined, powerful lower mid/upper bass range?

Listening to commercial releases I often wonder about that. They have weight, thickness, power, definition in there, while I have mostly mud that I feel like I have to cut out. The difference is especially huge when comparing to old (vinyl) releases, but modern digital releases often have it as wel...
