XAIR EQ

I have X18 and use this app. It is a great app however it does not work on ios16. Please either update it or suggest me an updated app if you have announced any other app.

App crashes

Developers I want a refund. This app doesn’t even open up. Please refund.

Response from developer

Please delete, then reinstall... There are no known issues with this App!

Excellent!

Love it! Yes, you should be able to tune your system to a room by sight and sound... but this app can do it in 10 seconds and pretty much be dead nuts. Multiple venues I’ve been in people have complimented on the clarity of our sound and I grin knowing it was partly due to this software.

I really wish they would write the same auto eq for Allen & Heath QU series and Soundcraft ui24r. I would gladly pay for those platforms!!

Makes our band sound better!

We are a 6 piece covers band that plays in Hertfordshire uk. We use this software to tame poor venue acoustics. Due to simplicity of design we are able to use it for pub gigs where often there isn't much set up time. Experienced sound engineers can probably tell which frequencies are an issue for a given venue and sort by ear. If you aren't and can't, this software will do it for you in 10 seconds. You can also save all of your venues in memory so merely need to recall for the next gig. Essentially wirelessly connects to mixer graphic eq and tweaks it to give you flat response. You will need to feed your PA with a noise generator and it will analyse the room with the mic in your iPhone or iPad before tweaking your graphic for you.

Turns out the mic in he iPad is more than adequate for this purpose in practice despite some people being concerned it isn't a reference mic.

Extremely reliable .. has never hung or crashed.

Great piece of innovation from highly responsive firm.

Perfect!

Works as expected!!

New revision bad

Has made the app appear incredibly small on iPhone X

Response from developer

This has been rectified with the latest update...

Like magic

I have this app for a couple of months & finally got a chance to use it in the field, it was like magic according to the lead singer he said “ I don’t know what he did but the monitors were sounding muddled then it got clear “ so thank you & keep up the good work.

It’s all it is cracked up to be.

Seriously, I never write reviews, but this app, saves you from wasting time and blasting pink noise for long periods of time. The corrected eq curve is heavenly. I will use this at every show. It’s so simple and effective.

Works well for me

It connected easily to my mixer once I set the IP address. I took a couple of minutes to look through all the options. Next I piped pink noise into the mixer. Then I selected the options that seemed most appropriate and the app setup the mixer’s EQ. It was not very complicated. This is a one purpose app and it accomplished that purpose. I’ll try using this at the next gig. Thanks to the developer for making apps for this brand of mixers.

Wow- so much for the "tough room"

Make your band sound as good as it can, and make people wonder how you do it. We all think we know how to set up the EQ right?
I mean what drummer doesn't know how to make the FOH sound great? Uh, that would be me.
So I have been making the band sound better ever since I got an XR18 because it's a killer unit.
But it's always been hard to really get a good proper EQ

Not any more. Now it takes 10 seconds and BAM, it sets you up perfectly. Then, you can also then push "save", and that room will always sound good from now on.

And for $9?

It's a bargain the first time you use it.

Hint. It's got a slight learning curve in getting it set up, so play with it in the studio a few times before the first gig- cuz once it's set up, it's virtually a 10-second deal.
Also- if you run a mac and have LogicX on board, you have a built it "pink noise" generator.

Yup. Nine dollars very well spent

Five stars. Does what it says, easy to use. In my application I play in and also run sound for a small pop music group playing small venues. We use a Behringer XR-18 mixer. I always have an older iPad running into the XR aux ins, primarily as a source of music during breaks. Before a gig I run a pink noise generator on the iPad, out the mains. I stand back about 2/3 of the room with my iPhone and use the auto eq on XAIR IEQ. In well under a minute I've got the mains EQed to a known curve that I can then fine tune. What a time saver.

My Sound is BETTER!

Wow, so stoked on this app! It did take about an hour to figure it out the first time, so make sure you do the initial setup / testing during a rehearsal, and not during a gig. Now that it is setup, it literally takes 20 seconds to properly eq the room, which gives you a very good starting point for your main L/R eq.

Great app

This app does what is says it does. John is very responsive to questions, comments and concerns. It's worth every penny.

Indispensable for serious FOH work!

If you're doing any serious FOH work with your X-Air series mixer, this will be about the best $9 investment you'll ever make. It tunes your PA to any room in seconds.

Simply log your iPhone running this app into the WiFi network your X-Air mixer is on, connect a source of white noise to an input of the mixer. Launch the app, and select the output bus you want to eq, pot up the white noise, wait for the RTA display to stabilize. Tap on the auto eq button, and a few seconds later, it's done. If you watch the RTA display while the app is running, you'll see the response flatten out in real time.

Works well with the internal mic on most modern iPhone and iPad models, or with an external reference mic via an adapter.

Can use a few tweaks but works great

Had a bit of a bumpy start but support was incredibly responsive and helpful. IEQ displays a default IP address for your air but you have to hit the enter button to confirm it. The app didn't work on my older iPad but so don't lots of other newer apps. My iPhone 6 had no problems. Once I piped a pink noise through the Axair and hit AutoEQ it took iEQ about 10 seconds to adjust the EQ. The effect is best noticed when cranking up the volume and turn the EQ on and off while feeding some recorded music. Another interesting effect is running AutoEQ from different places in the room. The app is well worth the money for DJs and bands. Support was excellent.
