Can anyone save me some time and head-scratching and point me in the direction of how to apply EQ to an aux feed on Mackie Master Fader and/or Mixing Station (for Behringer XR18)? Does it involve assigning an FX block and calling up an EQ?

For the XR18 I use the Behringer app on Windows and I’m a bit of a novice with Mixing Station but I’ve found that if you hit Mix/FX Send button on the main display, then tap on the name of the bus you want to EQ, you can access the PEQ for that bus. Hope this helps?

Thanks, that's actually jogged my memory re Mixing Station - I'll check it out when I'm next in the vicinity of my XR18 and my iPad.

Hi everyone, advice needed please.

 

I bought a pair of Ultimate Ears UE6 IEM's (based on the recommendation of EBS freak after reading this forum, many thanks for this), and I've noticed that the supplied cable is now becoming frayed and will likely need to be replaced soon. UE are asking £45 for a new one. I was just wondering if anybody else has purchased any aftermarket replacements and if so which one's and are they worth it, or should I just pull the trigger and buy the UE one's ?

 

Thanks for any suggestions in advance.

Are you taking your in-ear feed from the desk? Is it digital? If so, play with the eq on your IEM feed (aux) channel. As I’ve learned, EQ’ing IEM’s is as important as EQ’ing channels or the overall FOH mix. 

I think I've found what I need in Master Fader. I have been using my phone for this on stage but it's much easier with my iPad, so that will be coming on the next direct-to-PA gig.
