Set up 5.1 system with different size speakers
Hello
I am curious to see if it would be possible to set up a 5.1 system using two separate sizes speakers made by the same manufacturer? I have a main pair of A7X and also a secondary pair of A3X. I would be looking to get a third A3X to complete the system. I currently use an RME babyface pro but I was going to upgrade to the Apollo x6 that comes in 5.1 format. All the stores' technical support tell it is possible but of course, they want my money lol Cheers |

Just connect it up and calibrate it. Calibration would classically be done in an outboard monitor controller, but that is built into the Apollo X. You need to read the Apollo X documentation, it is all there.
Hopefully you already know Pro Tools Ultimate is needed for built-in multichannel support. |
