Hi, does anyone have any info on the use of the “Trim” adjustment? Somehow I feel this is related to gating, but not sure. Any advice on how and when to use? Thanks

After some waiting I have been starting to use my Pre-8, very intensive last two weeks.

Some Trouble:
-A alot of "snapping" / crackling sounds, dont know the english word. Sometimes its not even possible to listen and sometimes if I start on low volume and keep it like that there are no such sounds for hours.
If I then play loud for a while the very irritating sounds starts and they dont go away even on low volume.
Anyone alse experience the same?

-Para-eq lives it own life, it often changes the q value. I havnt really figured out when and why yet.

I hope it goes well for Deqx so we get a finished product, this Beta stege is a little painful in many ways.

On the positive side.. now my sound is fantastic! I have been working with my many different homebuild active systems for soon 20 years and quite quickly with the Pre-8 it sounded better than ever before with a large margin Im not good at describe how it sounds but im very very happy so far! I guess it can be even better.

I dont know what it means in this case, have you tried anything?

It seems very important/have big impact how you do the "create a speaker" measurement.. I have tried a lot of different way but placing the mic in the listenig position seems best so far.

Anyone else that have found out good ways to do things?

Yes I have !
I think thats importent that you meassuring the speakers there direct sound .
So not with too much room influence , but that depens of the room And how far the listening position is from the speakers.
In my case I meassure halfway .
I have a roommode on the listening spot wich I have meassure with REW And make a notch in the EQ page .
Sounds great And verre lifelike And spatial .
