The RTA provides a 1/3 octave 'Real Time Analyser'
frequency display for the signal currently PAFL signal.
The RTA can be viewed in the
Home or Meters screens. It
also displays on the strip meters when GEQ Fader Flip is
active. It separates the signal being listened to on the PAFL
monitor into 31 frequency bands and shows the relative
strength of each as a real time display.
When enabled, the RTA Peak Band option displays the
dominant frequency as a red bar in the RTA screen or by
lighting the red Pk indicator on the related strip meter while
in GEQ Fader Flip mode. Only one band will be lit red.
Note The RTA follows the PAFL signal. Check that you
have selected PAFL for the signal you wish to analyse.
OPTIONS pull-up window
Choose to hide or show the RTA Peak Band display on the
RTA screen or GEQ Fader Flip views.
Application
Use the RTA to help identify problem frequencies such as
instrument or room resonance or feedback.
With the Peak Band option enabled the RTA is a good tool
to help identify feedback frequencies while ringing out
stage monitors. Carefully raise the level of a vocal mic until
the monitor just begins to ‘ring’. That frequency will be
shown as the peak band and can be cut on the related Aux
mix Graphic EQ.
