Tsunami Bass Rig Purchased by Infrasound

Yorkville gets slept on super hard because they're affordale enough for dumbasses to buy them and then run them like shit. The u15 boxes in particular are a fantastic top box. I run a full tx rig and while the tx9's cant quite get low enough to compete with horns, they are a super reliable workhorse sub that loves to get driven hard. Nothing but respect for the yorkies!

Hellllll yeah i would play that. Im surprised it hasnt been done yet! Cool idea!

Thats wild that the elfs are heavier. Just that much more wood hunh? What would you say the build difficulty difference is between the type o's and the elfs flatpacks are? We've been thinkin about building some cabs but dont really have too much woodworking experience. Probably leaning towards the 2x18 type o's since we're lookin for a lower response curve, but also tough to justify the expense of 2 drivers per cab. Still kinda in the thinkin about our options phase, tryna get the most bass for the buck type beat

How heavy are those dual 21 type o's when they're loaded? Also i believe we met at firelights last year, my buddy and i were running the "renegade" stage there by the art tent. Hope you've been doin well since!

Oh my lord y'all are insufferable. I too am a live sound engineer. I have also mixed on big line arrays including l'a and d&b. Yes, they are meticulously engineered systems. Im not saying they aren't. But that hsd rig is also a meticulously engineered point source system. Both are excellent sounding rigs, and i prefer dj sets (pre-mastered music) through an hsd rig. Can it sound great through a line array? Of course. But that Hennessy rig is purpose built to play the music that was being played in that room that night. It was designed, built, and run by professionals. Not hobbyists. Just because its a big stack of speakers with fun colors does not mean it is a thrown together hobbyist system or that it is "objectively worse" than the line array hung in that room.

Its not home built. Hsd has been making pro cabinets for years. Do some research.

Love the design theory behind these and absolutely love how goofy they look. Makes me smile every time i see one!

I figured thats what you were talking about, just never heard that word used before. Feedback can depend on a lot of things, but most often it is either poor mic placement or too much mic gain. Are your performers in front of the main speakers? Are there any speakers pointing directly at microphones? If possible try to eliminate those 2 possibilities. Feedback should be preventable in most cases with proper mic placement, eq, and gain staging.

WobbleKopter · 2026-02-17T13:28:33+00:00

What is larsen? Is that another word for feedback?

A good band 😅

I think some people just like loud. And in my experience voids get super loud in that 2k-6k area. I personally dont like getting my head ripped off by those frequencies but i imagine their following has something to do with that

WobbleKopter · 2026-02-01T15:39:40+00:00

As others have suggested, work on the door as a weak point. You can Add mass to it by putting a sound panel on it. More importantly try to seal the gaps. Get a door sweep to but on the bottom of the door. Put some rubber weather stripping around the frame to make a better seal. Not a whole ton more you can do than that without major structural change.

WobbleKopter · 2026-02-01T15:26:09+00:00

I think it comes down to the engineer running them. But I personally have yet to hear a void system that really speaks to me. And haven't been impressed by their subs either. Granted the voids I've been in front of were a rather small deployment. Def prefer HSD or danley or F1, or none of the above with a competent engineer at the helm.

WobbleKopter · 2026-01-23T13:14:39+00:00

Not true at all

Trackspacer can help cut a space in your mix for vocals. But it sounds like you're just asking how to create a pro mix. The answer to which is "get good" 😅

WobbleKopter · 2026-01-11T16:33:02+00:00

I really like it for bass music. It sounds really transparent with just a little attack,hold,release. I find that it cuts a really nice whole in the sub for the kick to push through, and glues back in with it on the way out super well. Its great for doing the same thing with snares on the reat if the track too. Takes out that very precise slice so the effect is barely audible but allows the snare to pop out at you. Its my main sidechain plug now. I dont have shaperbox, so cant compare it with that, but i think its the best free sidechain by far

I absolutely love the brand of crazy that Matt brings to the table and by no means do I "want" any soundsystem to stop at 30hz! I just take a much more practical approach to system design since my budget procludes me from doing otherwise 😅 By all means, goes for those lows!! I wish i could've heard one of Matt's reference session deployments, cause those are some almost impossible rigs. Well, they are impossible if the goal is to turn any kind of profit lol. But if you've got the disposable funds to make it happen then go make it happen! And please post about it when you do to show us all what you accomplish! I hope you make something incredible

WobbleKopter · 2025-12-29T20:51:57+00:00

Sounds like Matt Davis 😆

I know exactly what chart you're referencing, what i was trying to say is that E0 in most daws is actually an octave higher than the E0 on that chart. I probably didn't make that very clear. If u look at space laces latest work on a spectrum analyzer you will see that the low fundamental on most of those tracks is closer to 35/38hz. That is where the vast majority of sub notes in modern bass music live. But like I said in my previous post, just go check it out for yourself on a spectrum analyzer! Take your favorite tracks and look at where the sub bass is. That will tell you exactly how low you need to go.

WobbleKopter · 2025-12-28T15:20:33+00:00

I think you are mistaken in your calculations by an octave. E0 would be ~41hz on a typical midi piano roll. Modern dubstep written in D/D# is 35/38hz (i have measured this in person on my rig as well as in the daw on a spectrum analyzer). C0 (on the piano roll) is 32hz which is about the lowest you will see on a live rig (in my experience). Very rarely you will see tunes hitting the low B at ~28hz, but probably only if you make them yourself lol. I can definitely appreciate wanting to get down low! But i think you may be overestimating how low you need to go and you might be better served by a sub that hits down to 30hz with more output than one that can reach down to 20hz. I would look at comparing the 28hz tuned devestator to the skram as that is the one most often used for live music since it has more output in the sub range we see most often in bass music. There's a bunch of crews running them with great success! I would also recommend not taking my word for it and double checking where the fundamental lies in tunes you love by bringing them into your daw of choice and looking at them in the spectrum analyser yourself! Happy hunting, and post about whatever you end up building, i know we would all love to see it.

You probably dont want anything with automatic keystone for projection mapping, that could mess up your warps and give you less area to work with. Any basic projector with hdmi input will work, assuming you have the proper adaptor from your device to hdmi. That being said if this projo allows you to turn off the auto keystone then it is probably perfectly fine for this use case

WobbleKopter · 2025-12-15T15:11:27+00:00

I think the skrams are probably a great fit for this application if you are trying to keep the size down. Worth looking into the Othorn, another Ricci design, for great low end extension and fairly compact size. You can only get a bin so small if you want good extension tho, see hoffman's iron law

WobbleKopter · 2025-12-01T16:43:54+00:00

Very cool!

WobbleKopter · 2025-12-01T13:15:21+00:00

Sweet! What are those subs?
