RACE Software
RACE is a professional audio tool to generate presets for
speaker systems. In addition to the clear display of all used
filters, delay and level settings, each output can be assigned
with the acoustic data (phase and frequency response) of
the individual speaker component.
This pure speaker data has been measured in free space.
RACE then calculates the complex summation of all used fil-
ters, level and delay settings applied to these components.
Thus the display on the screen is not only the electrical filter
response but, for the first time, the actual true acoustic
response of the component! Any change of parameter val-
ues is visible and audible in real time.
An additional tool is the SPL dispersion window for lower
frequencies. Presets can even be prepared off-line in ad-
vance and need only a little tweaking once speakers are
in place.
RACE enables engineers to seamlessly integrate room influ-
ence, speaker positioning and parameter settings and a
RACE Processed Preset is a guarantee for a solid, accurate
basis from which to begin system tuning. EV is supplying
these presets for all current EV speaker systems, even if the
needed combination is not part of the 50-factory preset of
the Dx38.

RACE
Software for Dx38
The acoustical r
esponse of Xi1183/64 plus Xi2181
(4-way) using the big Bode-Plot. Any change of
parameters like level, filter or delays is displayed
immediately
. Even ver
y complex ar
ray settings can be
tuned simply and accurately.
Overall Frequency Response
The signal flow diagram provides a clear overview of all
available parameters. Immediately after the input metering
there are five master equalizers per input available. Each of
these filters can be set as hi- or lo-pass (6dB/12dB-Peaking),
hi- or lo-shelf (6/12dB) or as a fully parametric eq. Each acti-
vated filter is signaled by a green LED symbol.
Each input, or the sum of both inputs, can be delayed sepa-
rately up to 900ms with the master delay. The fully flexible
routing allows each input as well as the sum to be routed to
any of the four outputs. Four filters per output are available
with same filter functions as the master eq. In addition, an
all-pass filter for phase corrections can be selected. The
x-over section pr
ovides a hi- and a lo-pass-filter per channel
and an output delay for alignment. The dynamics sections
with independent compressor and limiter can be used for
speaker protection.
The output meter display works like the whole editor in real-
time. Level control and mute are available for each channel.
All of these parameters on the Dx38 can easily be edited via
the fr
ont control panel without using a PC. Once you try
RACE however, you may never want to work without it!
