Dirac + DLBC with LR active bass section.

[geek101]

I got the multichannel with Bass Control.

All in all I have a 3.1 channel system with my LR speakers having active bass section.

Signal chain HTPC (Dirac + Win11) -> topping dm7(usb) -> amps

How do I split the L to L + LSub etc ? Like an external crossover in Dirac ?.

I am starting with selecting an LCR configuration and adding 3 subs but I feel like converting all subs to mono incorrect technically.

Seems like a similar question has been asked here : https://audiosciencereview.com/foru...irac-live-pc-version-active-crossovers.30594/

Seems like if one has active crossover they need to have it in signal chain after Dirac. But the crossover I have I don’t understand how it works, it comes with its own room correction and if I disable room correction not sure how it affects the crossover.

I believe that when you use DLBC, Dirac is the crossover (between the bass and the rest). You need to find a way of getting to the bass amp of the speaker directly. Does it have a separate input?

In DLBC you control each channel including bass ones separately. Dirac sets xovers itself based on measurements. In 3.3 setup (LCR +3 subs) you need an interface with 6 channels.
