Congrats on the DZR12's. The Gator speaker totes are good if they fit your speakers.

I do use the gators for my Monitors, the Yamaha covers though are nice and can be used as weather protection for outdoor gigs as they dont need to be removed.
I've got the DZR12, I love them. The covers are awesome, worth the wait
I have recently added Bose FH1 speakers for my tops. These are a line array style with a 12" for mids and multiple 2" for highs. I also now have two QSC K12 subs.
I got a chance to use these tops and one sub this weekend. Four piece band with E-Drums. Wow what a nice sound. I pan the vocals and guitar to just the tops. The bass and drums I leave going to both. Normally I would have just sent the bass and kick to the sub and tops but I only had a mono out from the drums. First set the drummers floor tome as way to loud but during the break I had him drop them and pinch up his snare.
Again for fast readers, I send the bass and kick to the tops and the sub.
Really nice sound then.

I got the 2nd Sub this week, looking forward to having the full system out this weekend, so far the DZRs have been fantastic with my Turbosound Subs.
I have 10 gigs now with my DZR/DXS15XLF rig now, and cant recommend these enough they really sound fantastic. Great clarity and great low end punch.
I sold my Turbosound IQ front end today (which was very good) and as of next week will have 2 x DZR12 and 4 x DXS15XLF subs.

Those low frequencies aren’t very directional. 10ft one way or another isn’t gonna matter much outside.
I don't know, but I wonder if the Subs being so far back from the Mains might cause some time-alignment issues.
I'm guessing that it'd be better to keep them a more similar distance from the listeners as the mains.
You’re talking minimal numbers here. For a physics problem… sure, time delay. For our application on that day… not gonna make a difference.
It’s one of those things that you would have had to be there. Crowd was predominately around our side in the shade with a few out front in the sun.
At that point, you do what you can.

I won't even admit here the unconventional things I do pertaining to Sound, lol...
That's one thing I like about my PreSonus StudioLive- the "fat channel" digital processing replaces any rack gear, but the rest works just like an analog mixer.
And damn they're going cheap nowadays used.
Which series of digital mixer has more useful recall of scenes/mixes/whatever their nomenclature is?
Let's say I play in three bands. Can I save have groups/banks of scenes/mixes/presets based on each band, and within each group, have presets for that band for a given venue?

- Bank/Group A: cover band
- cover band - rehearsals
- Cover band - biker bar
- cover band - pool hall
- Bank/Group A: Celtic band
- celtic band - rehearsals
- pub 1
- pub 2
- pub 17
- Bank/Group C: shoegaze
- shoegaze - rehearsals
- shoegaze - brewpub
- etc
Pretty much any digital mixer can handle this easily. id say for rehearsals, you are just using your monitor/In ear sends of your live show, If you do use In Ear monitors id say you want one scene per band, and then then just adjust EQ per Room,
