We know we’ve said this before, but we can’t say it enough. If you’ve
raised your output level for the analysis and adjustment procedure
more than you normally would, make sure to turn it back down to a
normal listening level immediately after performing an RAC analysis
and adjustment to avoid damaging your speakers and/or your ears.
To give you a good look at your RAC response curve, the M-16DX 8
displays the details on a few different screens. With the top line—
usually the speaker name—highlighted, use the - and/or + VALUE
buttons to get to these additional views.

On your screen, you’ll see your own RAC EQ curves, of course.
To hear the difference RAC is making to your sound, send some audio
through the M-16DX and listen to it while turning RAC on and off by
toggling the ROOM ACOUSTIC CONTROL button.
Manually Tweaking Your RAC Curve
While you would normally leave your RAC curve as it is for studio work—
where you’re seeking absolute accuracy—you can adjust an RAC curve. In
Live mixing, you may well want to tailor the curve to your taste. There are a
couple of ways to do this.
RAC Percentage
You can set the degree to which you want to use the RAC adjustment curve
by cursoring to the RAC percentage value and using the - and/or + VALUE
buttons to select the strength with which you want the curve applied.
Tweaking the RAC EQ
If you’d like to make changes to the adjustment curve

slider is highlighted, and its name
is also shown in the lower-left of
the screen.
