How To Set The Level In a Club System
Hello,
we have a pretty decent soun system in my school and we organize party.
The chain goes like that:
CDJ/Vinyls -> XONE/XDJ -> preprocessor (with a limiter) -> amplifier -> speakers
I wonder how to set up the level correctly and when should the limiter be triggered according to the mixer?
We're facing the problem that each time the DJs (a bit novice sometimes) goes full gain on every part of the mixer, the sound distorts, but then it's difficult for other DJs to lower the sound because at the end the public also feel a lowering of the energy (RMS level lower...).
So how to set up the system so that they won't do it?
Does DJs always end up pushing up gain?
So there are three questions in this post,
thank you for your interest.
