Nexo 45N Monitor - Manual (Page 4)

Tips.
Even greater audio control is available by thoughtful selection of the 45°N-12 presets.
When using the (2 x 45°N-12 ) or (3 x 45°N-12 ) presets, the controller applies filtering to compensate
for the extra LF introduced by coupling multiple wedges. This is useful, for example, when a monitor
engineer is using a single wedge to monitor the mix of musicians using coupled wedges. It also means
that any desired tuning applied to a single wedge can be confidently applied to coupled wedges.
However, should it be desirable to take advantage of the extra LF introduced by the natural acoustic
coupling (such as for a bass or keyboard player), coupled wedges may be run using the single (1 x
45°N-12 ) preset.
The long-throw attributes of the 45°N-12 line monitors means that monitors may be coupled
together in groups of twos, threes or fours with the groups then spaced wide apart along the front of
the stage. Such a configuration will provide a consistent audio sound field right across the stage.
Out of the box, the 45°N-12 is a very “musical” sounding monitor. We receive regular reports from
musicians, including many in high volume hard rock bands, that they much prefer the natural sound
of the 45°N-12 s to the more “limited bandwidth sound” of many conventional monitors. However,
the experienced monitor engineer should find that the 45°N-12 s respond very well to tuning, should
a different sound be desired.
